AIC1722A-25GXT

The AIC1722A-25GXT is a 3-pin low dropout linear regulator manufactured by AAIC (Analog Integrations Corporation). It is designed to provide a reliable 2.5V output voltage with a guaranteed output current of 300mA. This regulator is characterized by its low dropout voltage, which is typically 470mV at 300mA for the 3.0V version, indicating efficient operation even under load.

The device operates with a maximum input voltage of 8V and draws a low ground current of approximately 55µA, making it suitable for battery-powered applications. The output voltage accuracy is within 2% typical. For stability, it requires only a 1µF capacitor on the output and input.

Built-in current and thermal limiting provide protection against fault conditions. The AIC1722A-25GXT is supplied in a compact SOT89-3 surface-mount package, ideal for space-constrained designs. Its applications include voltage regulation for CD-ROM drivers, LAN cards, microprocessors, and wireless communication systems.

This regulator is suitable for various applications requiring a stable, low-voltage power supply from a battery or other limited sources. The surface-mount package facilitates integration into printed circuit boards using standard automated assembly processes.
