6 Application information
The LD39100xx is an ultra low dropout linear regulator. It provides up to 1 A with a low 200
mV dropout. The input voltage range is from 1.5 V to 5.5 V. The device is available in fixed
and adjustable output versions.
The regulator is equipped with internal protection circuitry, such as short-circuit current
limiting and thermal protection.
The regulator is stable due to ceramic capacitors on the input and the output. The expected
values of the input and output ceramic capacitors are from 1 µF to 22 µF with 1 µF typical.
The input capacitor must be connected within 0.5 inches of the V
IN
terminal. The output
capacitor must also be connected within 0.5 inches of output pin. There is no upper limit to
the value of the input capacitor.
