Description

The GQ2153 series of positive, linear regulators feature low quiescent current (30μA typ.) with low dropout voltage, making them ideal for battery applications.

These rugged devices have both Thermal Shutdown, and Current Fold-back to prevent device failure under the “Worst” of operating conditions.

In applications requiring a low noise, regulated supply, place a 1000pF capacitor between Bypass and Ground. The GQ2153 is stable with an output capacitance of 2.2μF or greater.
