■ General Description

The AME8808 family of positive, linear regulators feature low quiescent current (30μA typ.) with low dropout voltage, making them ideal for battery applications. The space-saving SOT-223 and DPAK-2 packages are attractive for Pocket and Hand Held applications.

These rugged devices have both Thermal Shutdown, and Current Fold-back to prevent device failure under the Worst of operating conditions.

The AME8808 is stable with an output capacitance of 2.2μF or greater.
