7.1 Overview

The LP5912-EP is a low-noise, high PSRR, low-dropout regulator (LDO) capable of sourcing a 500-mA load. The LP5912-EP can operate down to a 1.6-V input voltage and a 0.8-V output voltage. With this combination of low noise, high PSRR, and low output voltage, the device is designed to power a multitude of loads from noise-sensitive communication components to battery-powered systems.

The LP5912-EP contains several features, as shown in the Section 7.2:

  • Internal output resistor divider feedback
  • Small size and low-noise internal protection circuit current limit
  • Reverse current protection
  • Current limit and inrush current protection
  • Thermal shutdown
  • Output auto discharge for fast turnoff
  • Power-good output, with a fixed 140-µs typical delay
