Preliminary
RT9177
Ultra-Low-Noise 200mA LDO Regulator
General Description
The RT9177 is a 200mA low dropout and low noise
micro-power regulator suitable for portable RF
applications. The output voltage accuracy within
±2%
and range from 2.4V to 3.2V in 100mV
increments could be selected. It is designed for
using very low ESR output capacitor. Its output
remains stable even in using 1µF ceramic as its
output capacitor.
Using an internal PMOS as the pass device cause
that don’t need extra GND current in heavy load and
dropout conditions. In shutdown mode, nearly zero
operation current cause the IC is suitable for
battery-power devices. Other features including
current limiting, over temperature protection and
adding a capacitor in bypass pin to improve its noise
performance are functional.
