The LM2940SX-10-NS from National Semiconductor is a fixed 10V low dropout linear regulator capable of delivering 1A of output current. With a dropout voltage of 1V at full load, it is ideal for applications where the input supply is only slightly above the output. The device features a quiescent current of 10 mA and a PSRR of 63dB at 120Hz, ensuring clean and stable output. Packaged in DDPAK/TO-263-3, it is designed for surface-mount assembly and robust thermal performance.
- High Current Capacity: 1A output supports demanding loads such as motors and RF amplifiers.
- Low Dropout: 1V dropout enables operation from 11V input, reducing power dissipation.
- Superior Ripple Rejection: 63dB PSRR at 120Hz filters mains noise for sensitive analog circuits.
- Surface-Mount Package: DDPAK/TO-263-3 allows compact PCB design and efficient heat sinking.
