MIC29152WT

The MIC29152WT is a high-current low-dropout Regulator with Micrel's proprietary Super βeta PNP® process with a PNP pass element, these regulators feature 350 to 425mV (full load) typical dropout voltages and very low ground current. Designed for high-current loads, these devices also find applications in lower current, extremely low dropout-critical systems, where their tiny dropout voltage and ground current values are important attributes. The regulator is fully protected against over-current faults, reversed input polarity, reversed lead insertion, over-temperature operation and positive and negative transient voltage spikes. Five-pin fixed voltage versions feature logic-level on/off control and an error flag which signals whenever the output falls out of regulation. Flagged states include low input voltage (dropout), output current limit, over-temperature shutdown and extremely high voltage spikes on the input.
