The MIC29310 and MIC29312 are low cost versions of
MIC29300 family low-dropout (LDO) regulators. Manufactured
on Micrel’s proprietary Super beta PNP? process, the
MIC29310/2 is a 3A LDO regulator with very low-dropout
voltage (600mV over the full load) and low ground current.
Along with a total accuracy of ±2% (over temperature, line
and load regulation) these regulators feature very fast transient
recovery from input voltage surges and output load
current changes.
The MIC29310 is available in fixed 3.3V and 5V outputs
voltages; the MIC29312 has an adjustable output which can
be set by two external resistors to a voltage between 1.24V
to 15V. In addition, all versions are fully protected against
overcurrent faults, reversed input polarity, reversed lead
insertion, and overtemperature operation.
