Bay Linear
Inspire the Linear Power
150mA Low Dropout Voltage Regulator
B1121
Description
The Bay Linear B1121 is a low power voltage regulator.
This device is an excellent choice for use in battery-
powered applications such as cordless telephones, radio
control systems, and portable computers. The B1121
features very low quiescent current and very low
dropout voltage of 0.40 volts. This includes a tight
initial tolerance of ± 1% max, and very low output
temperature coefficient, making the B1121 useful as a
low-power voltage reference.
The B1121 feature low quiescent current ( 75µA Typ.)
and low dropout of 40mV at light loads 400mV (typ.) at
150mA.
The Bay Linear B1121 is available in fixed voltages of 3.0V,
3.3V, and 5.0V in a SOT-223 and TO-92 packages.
