Low-Dropout (LDO) linear regulators are a simple solution for using an integrated circuit to regulate a higher voltage to a lower voltage without the use of an inductor. Power management is vital in a world driven by battery-powered small devices that require efficient power consumption and precision. LDO regulators span a wide spectrum of specialized uses and can be widely implemented in today’s electronics due to their simplicity and low cost.

Advantages of Using Our LDO Linear Regulators

  • Ultra-low quiescent current
  • Ultra-low dropout voltage
  • Ultra-high ripple rejection
  • Very accurate output
  • Fast transient response
  • Wide selection of packages
  • Wide input voltage range

LDO Linear Voltage Regulator Types


Single-Output LDO Regulators

Single output of regulated voltage with your choice of fixed or adjustable output

Multiple-Output LDO Regulators

Multiple output of regulated voltage of fixed output

Ripple-Blocker LDOs

LDOs with low-pass filter in one package for high PSRR for various frequency ranges

LDO Controllers and SIM Card Products

  • LDO controllers include all the control functions required in the design of a LDO linear regulator 
  • SIM card level shifters integrate three high-speed level shifters for SIM card signal translation and an LDO to power the SIM card

Low Quiescent Current LDO Regulators

LDO regulators with the highest performance for quiescent current, including the lowest quiescent current LDO in the market that consumes only 20 nA (typical) while operating in a no-load state

High-Voltage Linear Regulators (VIN > 100V)

  • CL family of current regulators that operate at up to 220V with currents up to 100 mA
  • LR family of linear voltage regulators that operate from input voltages up to 540V, with fixed and adjustable version sourcing from 10 mA to 50 mA

High-Voltage Automotive LDOs (VIN 12V–48V)
