]nGeneral Description nThe RT9166/A series are CMOS low dropout regulators optimized for ultra-fast transient response. The devices are capable of supplying 300mA or 600mA of output current with a dropout voltage of 230mV or 580mV respectively. The RT9166/A series are is optimized for CD/DVD-ROM, CD/RW or wireless communication supply applications. The RT9166/A regulators are stable with output capacitors as low as 1μF. The other features include ultra low dropout voltage, high output accuracy, current limiting protection, and high ripple rejection ratio.nFeatures nLow Quiescent Current (Typically 220μA) nGuaranteed 300/600mA Output Current nLow Dropout Voltage : 230/580mV at 300/600mA nWide Operating Voltage Ranges : 3V to 5.5V nUltra-Fast Transient Response nTight Load and Line Regulation nCurrent Limiting Protection nThermal Shutdown Protection nOnly Low-ESR Ceramic Capacitor Required for Stability nCustom Voltage Available nRoHS Compliant and 100% Lead (Pb)-FreenApplications nCD/DVD-ROM, CD/RW nWireless LAN Card/Keyboard/Mouse nBattery-Powered Equipment nXDSL Router nPCMCIA Card
