uP7706
3A Ultra Low Dropout Linear Regulator
General Description
Features
The uP7706 is a 3A ultra low dropout linear regulator
specifically designed for motherboard and notebook
applications. This device works with dual supplies, a control
input for the control circuitry and a power input as low as
1.2V for providing current to output. The uP7706 delivers
high-current and ultra-low-drop output voltage as low as
0.8V for applications where VOUT is very close to VIN.
The uP7706 features comprehensive control and protection
functions: a power on reset (POR) circuit for monitoring
both control and power inputs for proper operation; an EN
input for enabling or disabling the device, a power OK with
time delay for indicating the output voltage status, a
foldback current limit function, and a thermal shutdown
function.
The uP7706 is available in PSOP-8 or VDFN6x5-8L
packages with very low thermal resistance.
