LT3008ETS8-2.5#TRPBF - Low Dropout Linear Regulator

The LT3008ETS8-2.5#TRPBF is a high-performance, low dropout linear regulator (LDO) brought to you by Linear Technology, now part of Analog Devices. This regulator is designed to deliver a continuous output current of up to 20mA with a dropout voltage as low as 300mV at full load, making it an ideal choice for battery-powered and portable applications where power efficiency is crucial.

Key Features:

• Low Dropout Voltage: With a low dropout voltage, this LDO ensures efficient operation even when the input voltage is close to the output voltage, reducing power loss and improving battery life in portable devices.
• Wide Input Voltage Range: The LT3008ETS8-2.5#TRPBF operates with an input voltage range from 1.6V to 20V, providing versatility for various power supply configurations and the ability to handle unpredictable input sources.
• Stable with Ceramic Capacitors: This device is stable with ceramic output capacitors, which are smaller, more reliable, and have lower equivalent series resistance (ESR) than tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
• Low Quiescent Current: The quiescent current is a mere 3μA, which minimizes the power consumed when the device is in standby mode, thereby extending the battery life of the application.
• Fixed Output Voltage: The device provides a fixed 2.5V output, which is a common voltage requirement for various electronic circuits, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of components.
• Thermal Protection: It includes internal thermal limit protection to safeguard the device and the system from damage due to overheating.
• No Protection Diodes Needed: The built-in robustness of the LT3008ETS8-2.5#TRPBF means that no additional protection diodes are required to ensure reliability.
