LT3022/LT3022-1.2 LT3022-1.5/LT3022-1.8 1A, 0.9V to 10V, Very Low Dropout Linear Regulator FEATURESDESCRIPTION n VIN Range: 0.9V to 10V The LT®3022 is a very low dropout voltage (VLDO™) linear n Dropout Voltage: 145mV Typical regulator that operates from single input supplies down to n Output Current: 1A 0.9V. The device supplies 1A output current with 145mV n Adjustable Output (VREF = VOUT(MIN) = 200mV) typical dropout voltage. The LT3022 is ideal for low input n Fixed Output Voltages: 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V voltage to low output voltage applications, providing n Stable with Low ESR, Ceramic Output Capacitors comparable electrical efficiency to a switching regulator. (10µF Minimum) The regulator optimizes stability and transient response n 0.05% Typical Load Regulation from 1mA to 1A with low ESR ceramic output capacitors as small as 10µF. n Quiescent Current: 400µA Typical Other LT3022 features include 0.05% typical line regulation n 7.5µA Typical Quiescent Current in Shutdown and 0.05% typical load regulation. In shutdown, quiescent n Current Limit Protection current typically drops to 7.5µA. Internal protection circuitry n Reverse-Battery Protection with No Reverse Current includes reverse-battery protection, current limiting, ther- n Thermal Limiting with Hysteresis mal limiting with hysteresis and reverse-current protection. n 16-Lead (5mm × 3mm) DFN and MSOP Packages The LT3022 is available as an adjustable device with an output voltage range down to the 200mV reference. APPLICATIONS Three fixed output voltages, 1.2V, 1.5V and 1.8V are also n High Efficiency Linear Regulators offered.
