The National Semiconductor LP38690SD-1.8 is a fixed 1.8V low dropout regulator capable of 1A output. Packaged in a compact 6-WSON (3x3), it features an ultra-low quiescent current of 55µA and a dropout voltage of 1.6V at full load. This makes it an excellent choice for battery-powered and low-voltage digital applications.
- Ultra-Low Quiescent Current: 55µA extends battery life in portable devices.
- Compact 6-WSON Package: 3x3mm footprint ideal for miniaturized PCBs.
- 1A Output Capability: Sufficient for modern low-voltage processors and peripherals.
- Stable 1.8V Rail: Ensures reliable operation of 1.8V logic and memory.
Low-Voltage Digital Logic
For 1.8V logic families and I/O banks, this LDO provides a stable 1A supply with minimal power loss.
FPGA Auxiliary Rails
Many FPGAs require a 1.8V auxiliary supply; the LP38690SD-1.8 delivers clean power with low quiescent current.
Battery-Powered Wearables
The 55µA quiescent current and small 6-WSON package make it ideal for smartwatches and fitness trackers.
DDR Memory Termination
