Linear Technology announces the LTC3026, a 1.5 A VLDO linear regulator with input voltage capability down to 1.14 V. Featuring adjustable ultra-low output voltage operation from 0.4 to 2.6 V, it also maintains low dropout voltage of 100 mV while delivering up to 1.5 A of output current. To allow operation at low input voltages, the LTC3026 includes an integrated boost converter that provides the necessary headroom for the internal LDO circuitry. The LTC3026’s high supply rejection capability enables it to be an effective post-regulator for switching power supplies. Other applications include high-efficiency linear regulation from low input voltage 2.5 V/1.8 V/1.5 V rails, plus powering low-voltage, high-current digital ICs such as microcontrollers, microprocessors, PLDs/FPGAs and DSPs.
