Micropower Regulator in ThinSOT
The LT
®
1964 is a micropower low noise, low dropout
negative regulator. The device is capable of supplying
200mA of output current with a dropout voltage of 340mV.
Low quiescent current (30µA operating and 3µA shut-
down) makes the LT1964 an excellent choice for battery-
powered applications. Quiescent current is well controlled
in dropout.
Other features of the LT1964 include low output noise.
With the addition of an external 0.01µF bypass capacitor,
output noise is reduced to 30µV
RMS
over a 10Hz to 100kHz
bandwidth. The LT1964 is capable of operating with small
capacitors and is stable with output capacitors as low as
1µF. Small ceramic capacitors can be used without the
necessary addition of ESR as is common with other
regulators. Internal protection circuitry includes reverse
output protection, current limiting, and thermal limiting.
The device is available with a fixed output voltage of –5V
and as an adjustable device with a –1.22V reference
voltage. The LT1964 regulators are available in a low
profile (1mm) ThinSOT package.
