The G916 series is a low supply current, high PSRR, low noise, and low dropout linear regulator, ideal for battery-powered applications such as notebook computers, cellular phones, and PDAs.
The G916 series is a low‑supply‑current, high‑PSRR, low‑noise linear regulator designed for battery‑powered devices such as notebook computers, cellular phones and PDAs. It is available in a space‑saving TSOT‑23‑5 or SOT‑23‑5 package and provides over‑temperature and short‑circuit protection.
Key specifications include a 200 mV dropout at 150 mA load, 65 dB PSRR at 120 Hz, a 2.5 V–6.0 V input range, and a maximum output current of 300 mA. The device can operate in a fixed‑mode (1.20 V–5.00 V) or an adjustable‑mode (1.25 V–5.50 V) using an external resistor divider on the SET pin. Ordering information, pin descriptions, and typical performance curves are provided.
| Maximum Output Current | 300 mA |
|---|---|
| Dropout Voltage (150 mA load) | 200 mV |
| Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR) | 65 dB @ 120 Hz |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5 V – 6.0 V |
| Fixed‑Mode Output Voltage Range | 1.20 V – 5.00 V |
| Adjustable‑Mode Output Voltage Range | 1.25 V – 5.50 V |
| Shutdown Supply Current | < 1 pA |
The fixed‑mode G916 provides an output voltage from 1.20 V to 5.00 V.
By connecting two external resistors as a voltage divider to the SET pin, the output voltage can be set to any value within the adjustable range.
In shutdown mode the G916 draws less than 1 pA of supply current.
