The MAX8885EUK25 low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator operates from a +2.5V to +6.5V input voltage range and delivers up to 150mA. It uses a P-channel MOSFET pass transistor to allow a low 85μA supply current-which is independent of the load-as well as LDO voltage. The MAX8885EUK25 is optimized to operate with low-cost, high-ESR output capacitors such as small case-size tantalum capacitors. It is ideal for cost-sensitive portable equipment such as PCS and cellular phones. For a pin-compatible, functionally equivalent device for use with a low-ESR, ceramic output capacitor, refer to the MAX8875 data sheet. The MAX8885EUK25 features a power-OK output that indicates when the output is out of regulation, and is available in preset output voltage versions of 5.0V, 3.3V, 3.0V, 2.7V, and 2.5V. Other features include 1μA (max) shutdown current, short-circuit protection, thermal shutdown protection, and reverse-battery protection. The MAX8885EUK25 is available in a miniature 5-pin SOT23 package.
