The AME40 is a micropower 2-terminal band-gap voltage regulator diode. It operates over a 40mA to 20mA current range. Each circuit is trimmed at wafer sort to provide a ±0.50% initial tolerance. The design of the AME40 allows for a large range of load capacitances and operating currents. The low start-up current makes these parts ideal for battery applications. AME, Inc. offers this part in a TO-92, SOP-8 packages as well as the space saving SOT-23.
