Dual, Low-Noise, Low-Dropout, 160mA Linear
Regulators in SOT23
General Description
The MAX8882/MAX8883 dual, low-noise, low-dropout
linear regulators operate from a +2.5V to +6.5V input
and deliver up to 160mA each of continuous current.
Both versions offer low output noise and low dropout of
only 72mV at 80mA. Designed with an internal P-
channel MOSFET pass transistor, the MAX8882/
MAX8883 maintain a low 165µA supply current (both
LDOs on), independent of the load current and dropout
voltage. Other features include short-circuit protection
and thermal-shutdown protection. The MAX8882 has a
single shutdown input and provides an external refer-
ence bypass pin to improve noise performance. The
MAX8883 includes two independent logic-controlled
shutdown inputs. The MAX8882/MAX8883 are both
available in a miniature 6-pin SOT23 package.

NAME
FUNCTION
Regulator B Output. Sources up to 160mA continuous current. Bypass with a
2.2µF (<0.5Ω typ ESR) capacitor to GND (see the
Capacitor Selection and
Regulator Stability
section).
Ground. This pin also functions as a heatsink. Solder to a large pad or the
circuit-board ground plane to maximize thermal dissipation.
Reference Noise Bypass. Bypass with a low-leakage 0.01µF ceramic
capacitor for reduced noise at both outputs.
Shutdown A Input. A logic low shuts down regulator A. If
SHDNA
and
SHDNB
are both low, both regulators and the reference turn off, and supply
current is reduced to 10nA. If either
SHDNA
or
SHDNB
is a logic high, the
reference is on. Connect to IN for normal operation.
Shutdown B Input. A logic low shuts down regulator B. If
SHDNA
and
SHDNB
are both low, both regulators and the reference turn off, and supply
current is reduced to 10nA. If either
SHDNA
or
SHDNB
is a logic high, the
reference is on. Connect to IN for normal operation.
Shutdown Input. A logic low shuts down both regulators and the reference,
reducing the entire supply current to 10nA. Connect to IN for normal
operation.
Regulator Input. Supply voltage can range from +2.5V to +6.5V. This input
also supplies the on-chip reference. Bypass with 2.2µF to GND (see the
Capacitor Selection and Regulator Stability
section).
Regulator A Output. Sources up to 160mA continuous current. Bypass with
a 2.2µF (<0.5Ω typ ESR) capacitor to GND (see the
Capacitor Selection and
Regulator Stability
section).
