Microchip Technology
General Description
The TC1054, TC1055 and TC1186 are high accuracy (typically ±0.5%) CMOS upgrades for older (bipolar) low dropout regulators. Designed specifically for battery-operated systems, the devices’ CMOS construction minimizes ground current, extending battery life. Total supply current is typically 50 µA at full load (20 to 60 times lower than in bipolar regulators).
