Analog Devices Inc. ADM717x 6.5V CMOS LDOs

Analog Devices Inc. ADM717x Low Dropout Linear Regulators (LDO) operate from 2.3V to 6.5V and deliver up to 500mA of output current. These high output current LDOs are ideal for regulation of high-performance analog and mixed signal circuits operating from 6V down to 1.2V rails. Based on an advanced proprietary architecture, these devices provide high power supply rejection, low noise, and achieve excellent line and load transient response within a small 4.7μF ceramic output capacitor. The output noise of these LDO regulators is 5μ Vrms, and is independent of the output voltage. 

Available in an 8-lead, 3mm × 3mm LFCSP package, these devices offer excellent thermal performance for applications requiring up to 500mA of output current in a small, low profile footprint such as ADC & DAC circuits, precision amplifiers, PLLs/VCOs, clocking ICs, communications & infrastructure, medical & healthcare, and industrial & instrumentation.
