TCR5AM11

The Toshiba TCR5AM series, including the TCR5AM11, are CMOS single-output voltage regulators designed for high-density board assembly in portable applications. These regulators feature an ultra-low dropout voltage of 90 mV (Typ.) at 300 mA output, making them efficient for power management.

Key electrical specifications include a wide output voltage line-up from 0.55 V to 3.6 V and the capability to drive up to 500 mA. They also incorporate essential protection features such as over-current protection, over-temperature protection, and an under-voltage-lockout function. The low standby current of 2 µA (Max) and low quiescent bias current of 40 µA (Typ.) contribute to power efficiency.

The TCR5AM11 is housed in an ultra-small DFN5B plastic mold package measuring 1.2 mm x 1.2 mm with a thickness of 0.38 mm. This compact size, combined with the ability to use small ceramic input and output capacitors, makes it ideal for space-constrained designs. The device also includes an auto-discharge function and an inrush current protection circuit.

These regulators are suitable for applications requiring stable voltage regulation with minimal power loss. The DFN5B package is surface-mount, facilitating automated assembly processes.
