Linear Regulators
Linear voltage Low Drop Out (LDO) voltage regulators
Topologies developed:
- LDO Voltage Regulators dedicated to RF supply section
– High PSRR (up to 80dB from 10Hz to 20kHz, 60dB at 100kHz)
– Low Noise (below 10uV RMS)
- LDO Voltage Regulators dedicated to BB supply section
– Low quiescent current (below 10uA)
– Quiescent current adaptable to output current
– Soft Start and Power on Reset management
- LDO Voltage Regulators dedicated to Backup and RTC supply section
– Very Low Quiescent Current (below 2uA)
– diode emulation to prevent reverse current from the backup battery
- LDO Voltage Controllers dedicated to high current applications
external FETs (DDR supply, Micro Supply, …)
Characteristics:
- Small Ceramic external Capacitors (from 1nF to 10µF)
- Built-in over-current sensing and protection
- Optimized Power Devices Layout for area saving
