MIC29310-5.0BT

LDO Regulator Pos 5V 3A 3Pin3+Tab TO-220

General Description

The MIC29310 and MIC29312 are low cost versions of MIC29300 family low-dropout LDO regulators. Manufactured on ’s proprietary Super beta PNP™ process, the MIC29310/2 is a 3A LDO regulator with very low-dropout voltage 600mV over the full load and low ground current. Along with a total accuracy of ±2% over temperature, line and load regulation these regulators feature very fast transient recovery from input voltage surges and output load current changes.
