ADP1821
Rev. C | Page 22 of 24
The ADP1821 can also be configured to run with an input voltage
higher than 5.5 V.
Figure 23 shows a typical application circuit
that operates from a 12 V input. An external LDO is built, with
an NPN, a 5.6 V Zener diode, and a resistor to step down the
input voltage from 12 V to 5 V to power the ADP1821. These
external signal components are cheap and small in size. Alter-
natively, LDOs such as the
ADP3300 or the ADP3330 in a small
SOT-23 package can be used for input voltages up to 12 V.
