APE8961
1A ULTRA LOW DROPOUT LINEAR REGULATOR
TYPICAL APPLICATION
1
The APE8961 is a low-dropout voltage regulator
suitable for various electronic equipments. It provides
constant voltage power source. The dropout voltage of
A
PE8961 is below 0.14V in full rated current (1A). This
regulator has various functions such as a peak current
protection, a thermal shut down, a short circuit protect.
The APE8961 is available in SO-8 and TO-220-5L
power packages which features small size to reduce the
j
unction-to-case resistance, being applicable in 0.5~3W
applications.
