Bay Linear
Description
The Bay Linear LM2940 & LM2941 is a 1.25A high accuracy, low dropout voltage regulator with only 40mV at light loads and 350mV(Typ.)@ 1.0A) and low quiescent current of 240µA typical.
The LM2940/41 is designed for low voltage a application that requires lower dropout voltage and faster transient response. This device is an excellent choice for use in powering low voltage applications where require a lower dropout, faster transient response to regulate from +2.5V to 3.8V supplies and as a post regulator for switching supplies applications.
The LM2940/41 offers full protection against over-current faults, reversed input polarity, reversed load insertion, and positive and negative transient voltage. On-Chip trimming adjusts the reference voltage to 1%. The LM2940-xx devices are in 3 pin fixed voltage regulators. The LM2941 include an Enable pin in the 5 pin packages.
