The MCP1826T-ADJE/DC from Microchip Technology is a 1A adjustable low-dropout linear regulator, supporting output voltages up to 5V. Its low dropout of 0.4V at full load and 220 µA quiescent current make it efficient for battery-powered and industrial applications. The SOT-223-5 package provides a balance of thermal performance and compactness.
- Adjustable Output: Flexibility to set any voltage up to 5V, reducing part count across multiple designs.
- Low Dropout: 0.4V at 1A maximizes efficiency when input voltage is close to output.
- Stable Noise Rejection: 60dB PSRR at 100Hz filters mains ripple for audio and precision analog circuits.
- Robust Package: SOT-223-5 offers good thermal dissipation for 1A continuous operation.
Adjustable Power for FPGA I/O Banks
The adjustable output (up to 5V) allows precise setting of I/O voltage levels, with 0.4V dropout ensuring efficiency from a 5V supply.
Battery-Powered Audio Players
With 60dB PSRR at 100Hz, it reduces power supply hum in portable audio DACs and headphone amplifiers.
Automotive Sensor Conditioning
