MIC5246-2.6BM5 Datasheet PDF - Micrel

General Description
The MIC5246 is an efficient, precise CMOS voltage regulator optimized for low-noise applications. The MIC5246 offers better than 1% initial accuracy, extremely-low-dropout volt age (typically 150mV at 150mA) and constant ground current (typically 85µA)over load . The MIC5246 features an error flag that indicates an output fault condition such as overcurrent, thermal shutdown and dropout. The MIC5246 provides a very low noise output, ideal for RF applications where quiet voltage sources are required.
Designed specifically for hand-held and battery-powered devices, the MIC5246 provides a TTL-logic-compatible enable pin. When disabled, power consumption drops nearly to zero.
