Product overview

Description

The LEXX is a very low-dropout voltage regulator available in SO-8, TO-92 packages and over a wide range of output voltages.

The very low-dropout voltage (0.2 V) and low quiescent current make it particularly suitable for low-noise, low-power applications and in battery-powered systems.

This device is pin-to-pin compatible with the L78L series. Furthermore, in the 8-pin configuration (SO-8), it uses a shutdown logic control (pin 5, TTL compatible). This means that when the device is used as a local regulator, a part of the board can be put in standby, decreasing the total power consumption. In the three-terminal configuration (TO-92), the device is always in on-state. It requires a 2.2 µF capacitor for stability, reducing the component size and cost.
