The dropout voltage is only 0.75V (Typ.) at 5A, di-
rectly dependent on the output current conditions.
Realized in BCDII technology, it has on board a
charge pump to properly drive an N-channel
power mos Transistor with 150m

.
It operates from a 4.5V minimum supply, with a
very low quiescent current irrespective of the
load; a minimum of 22碌F output capacitor is re-
quired for stability.
The on-chip trimming techniques improve the pre-
cision of the available output voltages to
鹵
2%.
Ancillary functions like power good, inhibit with
low power consumption, programmable output
voltage and current limiting make the flexible
heptawatt version usable in applications where
power management, stand-by, features, post
regulation and adjustable current generators for
battery chargers are important.
