MAX1818 Datasheet PDF - Maxim Integrated

Description

●The MAX1818 low-dropout linear regulator operates from a +2.5V to +5.5V supply and delivers a guaranteed 500mA load current with low 120mV dropout. The high-accuracy (±1%) output voltage is preset at an internally trimmed voltage (see _Selector Guide_ in the full data sheet) or can be adjusted from 1.25V to 5.0V with an external resistive divider.

●An internal PMOS pass transistor allows the low 125µA supply current to remain independent of load, making this device ideal for portable battery-operated equipment such as personal digital assistants (PDAs), cellular phones, cordless phones, base stations, and notebook computers.

●Other features include an active-low open-drain reset output that indicates when the output is out of regulation, a 0.1µA shutdown, short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown protection. The device is available in a miniature 800mW 6-pin SOT23 package.
