The AME8863 family of positive, linear regulators feature low quiescent current (30mA typ.) with low dropout voltage, making them ideal for battery applications. The space-saving SOT-26 package is attractive for "Pocket" and "Hand Held" applications. These rugged devices have both Thermal Shutdown, and Current Fold-back to prevent device failure under the "Worst" of operating conditions. An additional feature is a "Power Good" detector, which pulls low when the output is out of regulation. The AME8863 is stable with an output capacitance of 2.2mF or greater.
