Ordering Information
General Description
The RT9016 is designed for portable RF and wireless
applications with demanding performance and space
requirements. The RT9016 performance is optimized for
battery-powered systems to deliver ultra low noise and
low quiescent current. A noise bypass pin is available for
further reduction of output noise. Regulator ground current
increases only slightly in dropout, further prolonging the
battery life. The RT9016 also works with low-ESR ceramic
capacitors, reducing the amount of board space necessary
for power applications, critical in hand-he
ld wireless
devices. The RT9016 consumes less than 0.01
μ
A in
shutdown mode and has fast turn-on time less than 50
μ
s.
RT9016
is short circuit thermal folded back
protected.
RT9016 lowers its OTP trip point from 165
°
C to 110
°
C
when output short circuit occurs (V
OUT
< 0.4V) providing
maximum safety to end users.
The other features include
ultra low dropout voltage, high output accuracy, current
limiting protection, and high ripple rejection ratio. Available
in the SOT-23-5
and WDFN-6L 2x2 p
ackages.
