Linear regulator runs from lower
voltages
The LTC3035 is a 300mA very low dropout linear regulator with input voltage capability down to 1.7V.
Linear Technology has announced the LTC3035, a 300mA very low dropout (VLDO) linear regulator with input voltage capability down to 1.7V Featuring a low internal reference voltage with corresponding adjustable output voltage operation from 0.4 to 3.6V, the LTC3035 also maintains an extremely low dropout voltage of only 45mV at full load current

Card power chip meets smart and SIM standards
The LTC4557 is a dual SIM/smart-card power supply and level translator, which provides both 1.8 and 3V SIM power and digital signal level shifting from a 3 x 3mm QFN package.
RF mixers take transformers onboard
Linear Technology has released two new high linearity up-converting RF active mixers with integrated RF transformers.
To allow operation at low input voltages, the LTC3035 includes an integrated charge pump convertor that provides the necessary headroom for the internal LDO circuitry.
This low input voltage capability enables performance in applications ranging from Li-ion or dual AA alkaline cell to low input to low output voltage conversion systems.
The LTC3035's tight output voltage +/-2% accuracy, low quiescent and shutdown currents of 100 and 1uA, respectively, combined with fast transient response and small solution footprint with few external components, make it ideal for battery-powered handheld devices such as Bluetooth-enabled devices, cellular phones, media players, handheld medical and industrial instruments.
The LTC3035 regulator optimises stability and transient response with low-ESR ceramic output capacitors as small as 1uF.
Internal safety circuitry includes short-circuit and reverse output current protection, plus output current and thermal limiting.
The LTC3035EDDB in the 8-lead DFN (3 x 2 x 0.75mm) package offers a thermally efficient, highly compact solution footprint and is available from stock.
Pricing starts at $1.29 each in 1000-piece quantities. Request a free brochure from Linear Technology Corp ...
