RT9181
150mA LDO Regulator with PGOOD
General Description
The RT9181 is a low dropout voltage regulator with an
output 2% accuracy and supply a continuous 150mA
current within operating range from a +3V to +5.5V input.
The power good function monitors the output voltage
and indicates by pulling low the power good output (open
drain).
The RT9181 requires a small output capacitor with low
ESR for stabilizing output voltage. The device also
minimizes output overshoot during power up.
The RT9181 uses an internal PMOS as the pass device,
which consumes 160μA supply current independent of
load and dropout conditions. The
EN pin controls
the
output and consumes no input bias current. Other
features include current limiting, over temperature
protection, and under voltage lockout.
