LT3060IDC-3.3#TRPBF - Low Dropout Linear Regulator

The LT3060IDC-3.3#TRPBF is a high-performance, low dropout linear regulator (LDO) from Linear Technology, designed to deliver a continuous output current up to 45mA with a dropout voltage of 300mV at full load. This component is from the LT3060 series, which is renowned for its low noise, high voltage accuracy, and ease of use in a wide array of power supply applications.

With an adjustable output from 1.2V to 45V, this particular model comes with a fixed output voltage of 3.3V, making it an ideal choice for applications that require a stable 3.3V power supply. The LT3060IDC-3.3#TRPBF operates over an input voltage range from 1.6V to 45V, providing versatility for various input sources and ensuring performance over a wide range of battery chemistries and configurations.

The device features an internal low noise reference, yielding a low output noise of only 30μVRMS over a 10Hz to 100kHz bandwidth, which is crucial for noise-sensitive applications such as RF and precision instrumentation. Moreover, the LT3060 series offers excellent transient response and stability with ceramic output capacitors as low as 2.2μF, which are smaller and more reliable than tantalum capacitors.

Another key feature of the LT3060IDC-3.3#TRPBF is its robust protection capabilities. It includes current limit, reverse-battery protection, reverse-current protection, and thermal limiting, which safeguards the regulator and the load under abnormal conditions. Additionally, the device has a shutdown feature that reduces the quiescent current to less than 3μA, making it suitable for battery-powered memory "keep alive" systems and other power-conscious applications.

This LDO regulator is available in a low-profile (1mm) DFN package, which is ideal for space-constrained applications. The part number LT3060IDC-3.3#TRPBF also indicates that this component is provided in tape and reel packaging, making it suitable for automated manufacturing processes.

Overall, the LT3060IDC-3.3#TRPBF is a reliable and efficient solution for designers looking for a high-quality, fixed-voltage LDO regulator that combines low dropout performance with advanced safety and power-saving features.
