The MCP1826ST-3002E/EB from Microchip Technology is a fixed 3.0V, 1A low dropout linear regulator. It offers a low dropout voltage of 0.4V at full load and a low quiescent current of 220 μA, making it ideal for battery-operated equipment. The DDPAK-3 package provides excellent thermal performance for continuous 1A operation.
- High Efficiency in Battery Apps: Low 220 μA quiescent current extends battery life in portable devices.
- Low Dropout: 0.4V dropout at 1A allows operation from a 3.4V input to maintain a 3.0V output.
- Excellent Noise Rejection: 60dB PSRR at 100Hz filters power supply ripple for sensitive analog circuits.
- Robust Thermal Package: DDPAK-3 package dissipates heat effectively for reliable 1A operation.
