NCV86602BDT50RKG

The NCV86602BDT50RKG is an on-chip low-dropout (LDO) regulator with a wide input voltage range of 3.3V to 36V and a low output voltage range of 0.5V to 26.5V. It is designed to provide current to small loads and is capable of supplying up to 300mA, allowing it to be used in applications requiring higher current than traditional linear regulators. The device also has a shutdown feature, allowing the regulator to be completely disabled if needed. The NCV86602BDT50RKG is a three-terminal device that includes an enable line and two PWM (pulse-width modulation) outputs, allowing it to be used as a programmable power source.

The NCV86602BDT50RKG belongs to the group of linear voltage regulators. Its working principle is based on the application of a power transistor as an on-off switch. The input voltage is applied to the base of the transistor, and its collector is connected to the output voltage. When the input voltage is higher than the output voltage, the transistor is turned on and current flows from the input to the output, providing the output voltage. The transistor is switched off when the input voltage is lower than the output voltage, and the previous current is maintained through the lowered voltage drop. This switching allows the output voltage to remain stable. Additional circuitry is included for features such as overload protection, soft-start, over-voltage protection, and current limitation.

The NCV86602BDT50RKG can be used in a variety of applications. It is commonly used in automotive electronics and industrial power applications, as well as in portable devices such as mobile phones and laptop computers. It can also be used in voltage regulators, DC-DC converters, and power management circuits. Additionally, it can be used in audio amplifiers, television sets, and LCD displays.

The NCV86602BDT50RKG is an efficient, low-cost linear voltage regulator that is capable of supplying low voltages with high accuracy and reliability. Its low power consumption and wide input voltage range make it an attractive choice for a variety of applications that require a reliable power supply. It is also an excellent choice for applications that require a programmable power source due to its two PWM outputs.
