DESCRIPTION

The MP8801 is a low-noise, low-dropout linear

regulator. It operates from a 2.7V to 6.5V input

voltage and regulates the output voltage with

2% accuracy at 2.5V, 2.85V or 3.3V. The

internally set output voltage may be overridden

with an external resistor divider from 1.25V to

5V.

The MP8801 can supply up to 150mA of load

current. The MP8801 features thermal overload

protection and is available in a 5-pin TSOT23-5

package.
