BA15FP-E2

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Overview

The BA15FP-E2 is a fixed-output low-dropout linear voltage regulator manufactured by ROHM Semiconductor. It provides a stable 15 V output with a maximum continuous current of 1 A. The device operates within an input voltage range of 16 V to 25 V and features a typical dropout voltage of 300 mV at 500 mA, with a maximum of 500 mV under full load conditions. It is housed in a surface-mount TO-252-3 package and supports operation across a temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix E2 for environmental compliance status. Confirm the TO-252-3 package variant matches your PCB footprint requirements. Check current lifecycle status as end-of-life notifications may apply. Ensure input voltage does not exceed the 25 V maximum rating during operation.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Selection Notes

Select this component when a 1 A fixed 15 V output is required with minimal voltage drop. Compare against standard linear regulators if higher efficiency is needed. Consider thermal dissipation capabilities given the 1 W power dissipation limit in the TO-252-3 package. Verify compatibility with downstream circuitry requiring precise voltage levels.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Part Context

This part belongs to the BA15 series of low-dropout regulators from ROHM. It complements other fixed-voltage options in the portfolio, offering a balance between current capacity and dropout performance. The series targets applications where space constraints and efficiency are critical design factors.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Replacement Considerations

BA78M15FP-E2 offers similar 15 V output but lower current capacity (500 mA). BA17815FP-E2 provides 1 A output but is a standard linear regulator with higher dropout voltage. Verify pinout and thermal characteristics before substitution.
