DZ23C18-E3-08 Application Field and Working Principle
A DZ23C18-E3-08 is an integrated circuit (IC) designed for voltage regulation. It is a low drop out (LDO) regulator with low quiescent current, high reliability and high accuracy. The device is specifically designed to regulate the voltage at the output which is equal to the voltage at the reference input. It is primarily used in applications like distributed power systems, microprocessors, logic, and nonvolatile memory.
The DZ23C18-E3-08 is a 3-pin LDO IC, with pin 1 being the ground (GND) pin for connection to the ground of the circuit. Pin 2 is the input/output (VIN/VOUT) pin and provides the input voltage to the IC. The pin 3 is the reference voltage (VREF) pin and supplies the reference voltage to the IC. The maximum input voltage for the IC is 6V and the output voltage is limited to a maximum of 3.3V.
The LDO devices have a programmable output voltage, which is over-voltage protected. The output voltage is regulated by controlling the output transistors in the IC. The transistors are controlled by the voltage applied at the reference voltage pin. The output voltage of the device is determined by the ratio of the Rref resistance and the input voltage. The voltage drop on the output transistors is used to regulate the output voltage of the device.
The DZ23C18-E3-08 comes with a number of features which make it an ideal choice for power supply applications. It has a low quiescent current which helps in increasing the efficiency of the system. The device also has a low temperature coefficient and temperature protection, which helps in maintaining the accuracy of the voltage regulation at different temperatures. It also has a wide operating temperature range and high ripple rejection.
The DZ23C18-E3-08 is a versatile LDO device, with a simple architecture and wide power range. It is well suited for a variety of voltage regulation applications, from microprocessors to memory systems. The device is easy to use and its high efficiency makes it ideal for distributed power systems.
