NCP59150, NCV59150 Series
1.5 A, Very Low-Dropout
(VLDO) Fast Transient
Response Regulator Series
The NCP59150 series are high precision, very low dropout
(VLDO), low ground current positive voltage regulators that are
capable of providing an output current in excess of 1.5 A with a typical
dropout voltage lower than 300 mV at 1.5 A load current. The devices
are stable with ceramic output capacitors. This series consists of
Adjustable output voltage and fixed voltage versions.
The NCP59150 series can withstand up to 18 V max input voltage.
Internal protection features consist of output current limiting,
built−in thermal shutdown and reverse output current protection.
Logic level enable and error flag pins are available on the 5−pin and
8−pin versions.
The NCP59150 series Adjustable Voltage devices are available in
D2PAK−5 and DFN8 packages, the Fixed Voltage option are available
in D
2
PAK−5, D
2
PAK−3 and DFN8 packages.
