Low dropout voltage regulators from Toshiba
Toshiba Electronics Europe has launched a new family of ultra small cmos low dropout voltage regulators.
The TCR2EN series is targeted at mobile phones and other battery powered, portable devices that demand low power consumption, high performance and minimum pcb space.
Based on Toshiba's latest cmos process, the devices are said to be smaller than other 150/200mA class moulded package alternatives, while still offering a typical drop out voltage rating of 160mV (at an output voltage and current of 2.5V and 150mA).
In addition, at just 35µVrms (2.5V, 10mA output), Toshiba says the ldos offer the industry's lowest typical output noise for this class of package. Load transient response is rated at 55mV for output current changes between 1 and 150mA.
