NCP4681, NCP4684
150 mA, Ultra Low
Quiescent Current, Low
Dropout Regulator
The NCP4681 and NCP4684 are CMOS Linear voltage regulators
with 150 mA output current capability and ultra low supply currents
(1
mA
typ.) The devices are easy to use and include output current
protection and a fully integrated soft−start circuit to minimize inrush
current and to ensure no output voltage overshoot. The NCP4681
includes an Enable function to reduce supply current by using a
Standby mode, while the NCP4684 excludes the Enable pin to avoid
any pull down current, thereby offering the lowest possible current
consumption for battery powered applications in Active mode. For
portable products the devices are available in the exceptionally small
0.8 x 0.8 mm XDFN, along with the SC−70 and SOT23 packages
