NCP3520/NCP3521
LDO Regulator Controller
The NCP3520 / NCP3521 parts are Low Drop Out (LDO) regulator
controllers for applications requiring high-currents and ultra low
dropout voltages. The use of an external NMOS driver allows the user
to adapt the device to a multitude of applications depending on system
requirements for current and dropout voltage.
