Ultra-Low-Noise, High PSRR, Low-Dropout, 120mA Linear Regulators
General Description
The MAX8510/MAX8511/MAX8512 ultra-low-noise, lowdropout (LDO) linear regulators are designed to deliver up to 120mA continuous output current. These regulators achieve a low 120mV dropout for 120mA load current. The MAX8510 uses an advanced architecture to achieve ultra-low output
voltage noise of 11µVRMS and PSRR of 54dB at 100kHz.
The MAX8511 does not require a bypass capacitor, hence achieving the smallest PC board area. The MAX8512’s output
voltage can be adjusted with an external divider.
The MAX8510/MAX8511 are preset to a variety of
voltages in the 1.5V to 4.5V range. Designed with a P-channel
MOSFET series pass transistor, the MAX8510/MAX8511/ MAX8512 maintain very low ground current (40µA).
The regulators are designed and optimized to work with low-value, low-cost ceramic
capacitors. The MAX8510 requires only 1µF (typ) of output capacita...
