Description

The AP7167 is a 1.2A, adjustable output voltage, ultra-low

dropout linear regulator. The device includes pass element,

error amplifier, band-gap reference, current limit and thermal

shutdown circuitry. The device is turned on when EN pin is

set to logic high level. A Power-OK (POK) output is available

for power sequence control.

The characteristics of the low dropout voltage and low

quiescent current make it suitable for low to medium power

applications, for example, laptop computers, audio and video

applications, and battery powered devices. The typical

quiescent current is approximately 125µA.

Built-in current-limit and thermal-shutdown functions prevent

IC from damage in fault conditions.

The AP7167 are available in DFN3030-10 and SOP-8L

packages.
