The Microchip MCP1826T-2502E/ET is a fixed 2.5V low dropout linear regulator capable of delivering up to 1A of output current. With a dropout voltage of just 0.4V at full load and a quiescent current of 220 μA, it offers an efficient solution for battery-powered and industrial applications. The DDPAK-5 package ensures robust thermal performance, while the 60dB PSRR at 100Hz provides clean, stable power for sensitive electronics.
- High Current Capacity: 1A output supports power-hungry loads like FPGAs and processors without needing multiple regulators.
- Low Dropout Voltage: 0.4V dropout at 1A allows operation from batteries with minimal headroom, extending battery life.
- Excellent Ripple Rejection: 60dB PSRR at 100Hz ensures clean output for analog and RF circuits, reducing noise interference.
- Thermally Efficient Package: DDPAK-5 package dissipates heat effectively, enabling reliable operation in high-temperature environments.
High-Current Battery-Powered Devices
With a 1A output capability and a low 0.4V dropout, the MCP1826T-2502E/ET efficiently regulates power from a 3.6V Li-ion battery down to a stable 2.5V rail for processors and RF transceivers, maximizing usable battery life.
FPGA and DSP Core Supplies
Modern FPGAs and DSPs require precise, low-noise core voltages. This regulator provides a clean 2.5V output with 60dB PSRR at 100Hz, reducing supply-induced jitter and logic errors in high-performance digital systems.
Automotive Infotainment Systems
The DDPAK-5 package offers excellent thermal dissipation for under-hood or dashboard environments. The 1A current rating supports multiple peripheral loads, while the fixed 2.5V output suits legacy logic and sensor interfaces.
Industrial Sensor Arrays
