Toshiba Launches Ultra-Low Drop-out 500mA LDO Regulator ICs for Mobile Devices

Achieves industry’s lowest-class drop-out voltage in low voltage input

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Corporation’s (TOKYO: 6502) Semiconductor & Storage Products Company today announced the launch of 500mA LDO Regulator ICs that achieve the industry’s lowest-class^[1] drop-out voltage in low voltage input. Shipment starts from today.

The new “TCR5AM series” achieve ultra-low dropout and low voltage output by adopting an external bias voltage supply (V_BAT) as an extra input voltage, improving power efficiency. It offers high-efficient LDO solutions by achieving ultra-low dropout and various protection functions, such as over-current protection and over-temperature protection, in a single high-power dissipation package.

Applications:

Power management for smartphones, tablets, wearable devices and other mobile devices

Main Features:

・Low dropout voltage：0.072V (typ.) @V_OUT=0.6V, V_BAT=3.3V, I_OUT=300mA

0.120V (typ.) @V_OUT=0.6V, V_BAT=3.3V, I_OUT=500mA

・Wide line-up of output voltage: V_OUT = 0.55 to 3.6 V

・Protection functions: Over-current protection, over-temperature protection, inrush current protection circuit, under-voltage lockout function

・Output current：500mA

・High-power dissipation package：PD=0.6W, 1.2 x 1.2mm, t:0.38mm
