Expanded Lineup of AEC-Q100(Grade2) Compliant 0.8uA(TYP.) Ultra-Low Quiescent Current Voltage Regulator XD6506 Series

Torex Semiconductor Ltd. (Tokyo Japan: President, Koji Shibamiya, 6616: 1st section at Tokyo Stock Exchange) has launched the XCL6506 series of AEC-Q100(Grade2) Compliant , 0.8uA(TYP.) Ultra-Low Quiescent Current Voltage Regulator.

The XD6506 series are positive voltage LDO regulators manufactured using CMOS processes. The series achieves Ultra low supply current, 0.8μA (TYP.) and consists of a reference voltage source, an error amplifier, a current fold-back circuit, and a phase compensation circuit plus a driver transistor.

The series is also compatible with low ESR ceramic capacitors, which give added output stability.The current limiter's fold-back circuit also operates as a short protect for the output current limiter and the output pin.Furthermore, the CE function allows the output of the regulator to be turned off, resulting in greatly reduced power consumption.
