General Description
The G9131 is a low supply current, low dropout linear
regulator that comes in a space saving SOT23 pack-
age. The supply current at no-load is 55µA. An over
temperature protection circuit is built-in in the G9131
to prevent thermal overload. These power saving fea-
tures make the G9131 ideal for use in the bat-
tery-powered applications such as notebook com-
puters, cellular phones, and PDA’s.
Applications
Cordless Phones
PDAs
Hand-Held Devices

Stresses beyond those listed under "Absolute Maximum Ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress rat-
ings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of
the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
