MCHPMCP1700T-3302E/MB
Overview
The MCP1700T-3302E/MB is a CMOS low dropout (LDO) voltage regulator that provides a fixed 3.3V output from an input voltage up to 6V. It is characterized by an extremely low quiescent current of 1.6uA, making it an ideal choice for extending battery life in portable applications. The device is stable with just 1.0uF of ceramic output capacitance and includes integrated overcurrent and overtemperature protection.
Why Choose This Part
The primary advantage is the ultra-low 1.6uA quiescent current, which significantly reduces standby power drain compared to standard regulators. Its low dropout voltage of 178mV at 250mA allows for maximum battery capacity utilization, while the AEC-Q100 qualification ensures high reliability in demanding environments.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
When designing with the MCP1700, place a 1.0uF ceramic capacitor close to the input and output pins for stability. Ensure the SOT-89 package thermal pad is adequately soldered to a copper plane to manage heat dissipation during high current loads. For prototyping, this regulator can be easily integrated into custom PCBs using standard EDA footprint libraries for the TO-243AA (SOT-89) package.
