LDOs from Diodes achieves 2% accuracy over industrial temperature range

Diodes inc. has introduced the 300mA, 150mV dropout AP7335 and the 600mA, 300mV dropout AP7365, a pair of low dropout linear regulators with industrial temperature ratings of -40degC to +85degC. They are designed for applications such as set-top boxes, routers, and LCD monitors and offer adjustable and fixed output voltage operation at accuracy of 2% across the temperature range according to Diodes.

These regulators operate over an input voltage range of 2V to 6V and both LDOs are capable of delivering an adjustable output voltage between 0.8V and 5.0V and fixed voltages of 0.8V, 1.0V, 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.0V, 2.5V, 2.8V, 3.0V, 3.3V, and 3.9V. They have a quiescent current of 35µA. The regulator also has the ability to drive low ESR 1µF MLCC output capacitors thus improves stability and reduce circuit cost. They also have a high PSRR rating of 65db at 1KHz ensures low-noise high-quality supplies for audio and RF applications. These LDOs provide integral over-current, over-temperature, and shortcircuit protection.

Package: Both devices are available in SOT25 and DFN2020-6 outlines and the AP7365 is also available in SOT89-3L and SOT223-3L options.
