General Description

The MCP1700 is a family of CMOS low dropout (LDO) voltage regulators that can deliver up to 250 mA of current while consuming only 1.6 μ A of quiescent current (typical). The input operating range is specified from 2.3V to 6.0V, making it an ideal choice for two and three primary cell battery-powered applications, as well as single cell Li-lon-powered applications.

The MCP1700 is capable of delivering 250 mA with only 178 mV of input to output voltage differential ( V_OUT = 2.8V). The output voltage tolerance of the MCP1700 is typically ±0.4% at +25°C and ±3% maximum over the operating junction temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Output voltages available for the MCP1700 range from 1.2V to 5.0V. The LDO output is stable when using only 1 μF$ output capacitance. Ceramic, tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors can all be used for input and output. Overcurrent limit and overtemperature shutdown provide a robust solution for any application.

Package options include SOT-23, SOT-89, TO-92 and 2x2 DFN-6.

The descriptions of the pins are listed in Table 3-1.
