LP3984ITP-1.8/NOPB

LP3984ITP-1.8/NOPB is a linear voltage regulator, which belongs to PMIC (Power Management Integrated Circuit), making it possible to electronically regulate power and efficiency for different applications. This specific linear regulator is a low dropout regulator (LDO) with a maximum input voltage of 1.6 V, a typical output voltage of 1.8 V and a maximum output current of 150 mA. This makes it suitable for applications such as microprocessors, memory modules, LEDs, PDAs and cellular phones that require precise control of both voltage and current.

The working principle of an LDO is based on a series of resistors, designed to reduce power wastage. This series of resistors is connected in such a way that, when a higher voltage is applied, the current will pass through the resistors and produce a lower voltage at the output end. The circuit is arranged so that the output voltage is always more than the input voltage, and the difference between the two is known as the dropout voltage.

The LP3984ITP-1.8/NOPB also features a Power Good signal output, which allows a user to monitor the state of the output voltage. This feature is especially useful for low voltage applications such as microprocessors, where an accurate control of the output voltage is essential. Furthermore, the regulator has a typical quiescent current of only 1.2 uA and a typical junction temperature of 150°C, making it extremely energy efficient.

Overall, the LP3984ITP-1.8/NOPB is an ideal solution for applications that require precise control of both voltage and current with low power consumption. It is especially suitable for low voltage applications, such as microprocessors, memory modules, LEDs, PDAs and cell phones. With its low dropout voltage and high power efficiency, this linear voltage regulator can help reduce power wastage and improve product performance.
