General Description
T
he TS2938/A series of fixed-voltage monolithic micro-power voltage regulators is designed for a wide range of
applications. This device excellent choice of use in battery-power application. Furthermore, the quiescent current
increases on slightly at dropout, which prolongs battery life.
This series of fixed-voltage regulators features very low ground current (100uA Typ.), very low drop output voltage (Typ.
60mV at light load and 600mV at 500mA) and output inhibit control. This includes a tight initial tolerance of 1% (TS2938A)
and 2% (TS2938), extremely good line regulation of 0.05% typ., and very low output temperature coefficient.
This series is offered in 5-pin of TO-252-5L and 8-pin SOP-8 package.
