The parts provide excellent AC and DC load and line regulation with ±1.5% output voltage accuracy. The LTC3801 consumes only 195µA of quiescent current in normal operation, dropping to 16µA under no-load conditions. The LTC3801/LTC3801B incorporate an undervoltage lockout feature that shuts down the device when the input voltage falls below 2.2V. The LTC3801 automatically switches into Burst Mode operation at light loads which enhances efficiency at low output current. In the LTC...
