The LM103H-3.3 is a low dropout voltage regulator IC component designed for use in various applications. It offers a stable output voltage with a low dropout voltage, allowing it to deliver a regulated power supply even when the input voltage is close to the output voltage. This makes it suitable for battery-powered devices and other applications where a stable voltage is required.
Key features of the LM103H-3.3 include:
1. Low Dropout Voltage: The IC has a very low dropout voltage of typically 75mV at 500mA load current, which ensures a stable output voltage even when the input voltage is slightly higher than the desired output voltage.
2. Output Voltage Accuracy: The LM103H-3.3 provides a highly accurate output voltage of 3.3V, making it suitable for precision applications that require a stable and reliable power supply.
3. Low Quiescent Current: The quiescent current, also known as ground pin current, is very low, typically about 5mA. This low quiescent current minimizes power consumption and ensures efficient operation even in battery-powered devices.
4. Thermal Shutdown Protection: The IC incorporates a thermal shutdown protection mechanism that prevents the device from overheating. This feature ensures the longevity and reliability of the IC by preventing damage due to excessive temperature.
5. Current Limiting and Short Circuit Protection: The LM103H-3.3 includes built-in current limiting and short-circuit protection features
