The LT® 1529/LT1529-3.3/LT1529-5 are 3A low dropout regulators with micropower quiescent current and shutdown. The devices are capable of supplying 3A of output current with a dropout voltage of 0.6V. Designed for use in battery-powered systems, the low quiescent current, 50mA operating and 16mA in shutdown, make them an ideal choice. The quiescent current is well controlled it does not rise in dropout as it does with many other low dropout PNP regulators.
