CAT6221
300 mA CMOS Dual LDO
Regulator
Description
The 300 mA CMOS Dual LDO CAT6221 combines in a single
TSOT−23 6−lead package two low dropout regulators (LDO), each
with its own enable pin.
The regulator outputs drive loads up to 300 mA. By design, the dual
LDO provides fast response time during load current and line voltage
changes.
Each LDO is optimized for low noise and high crosstalk isolation.
With zero shut down current and a low quiescent current of 100
mA,
the dual LDO is ideal for battery−operated devices with supply voltage
from 2.3 V to 5.5 V.
The dual LDO offers 1% initial accuracy and very low dropout
voltage, typical 210 mV at 300 mA. Stable operation is provided with
small 1
mF
ceramic output capacitors, reducing required board space
and component cost.
Other features include fold−back current limit and thermal
protection.
The dual LDO is available in the tiny 6−lead TSOT−23 package
with a maximum height of 0.8 mm.

ceramic
bypass capacitor is required between the V

pin and ground

supply, C
IN
value can be increased without limit. The
operating input voltage range is from 2.3 V to 5.5 V.
EN1 & 2

regulator outputs.

The capacitor should be located near the device. For the
TSOT23 6−lead package, a continuous 300 mA output
current for both LDOs may turn−on the thermal protection.
On each output, a 250

internal shutdown switch
discharges the output capacitor in the no−load condition.
