Description
The L4993 is a monolithic integrated 5V Voltage
regulator with a low drop voltage at currents up to
150 mA.The output voltage regulating element
consists in a p-channel MOS and the regulation is
performed regardless of input voltage transients
up to 40V. The high precision of the output voltage
is obtained with a pre-trimmed reference voltage.
The L4993 is protected against short circuit and
an over-temperature protection switches off the
device in case of extremely high power dissipa-
tion. The L4993 watchdog
is active when the
Enable is high. State of the art features like reset
and watchdog make this device particularly
suitable to supply microprocessor systems in
automotive applications.
