NEXT GENERATION IN HIGH-EFFICIENCY, QUAD-OUTPUT, MAIN POWER-SUPPLY CONTROLLERS FOR NOTEBOOKS FROM MAXIM
SUNNYVALE, CA-August 22, 2002-Maxim Integrated Products (NASDAQ: MXIM) introduces the MAX1982/MAX1983 low-voltage, low-dropout linear regulators with an external bias supply input. The 5V bias supply drives the internal N-channel pass transistor, making these devices ideal for applications that require low-voltage outputs from low-voltage inputs. The MAX1982 delivers 1.2V at 300mA from an input voltage of 1.5V to 5.5V. The MAX1983 delivers an adjustable output voltage from 0.8V to 2V.
The MAX1982/MAX1983 include current limit and thermal shutdown that protect the regulator in the event of a fault condition.
The MAX1982/MAX1983 are available in 6-pin SOT23 packages. All devices are screened for the extended temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). Prices start at $0.74 (1000-up, FOB USA). A preassembled evaluation kit is available with recommended external components to reduce design time.
