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

Verify the component status as obsolete or discontinued through official manufacturer channels before procurement planning. Confirm RoHS compliance status, as documentation indicates non-compliance. Ensure the D2PAK-3 package footprint matches the target PCB design. Validate that the 1.25 V to 13 V input range aligns with system power rails. Check for alternative sourcing options if original manufacturing supply is unavailable.

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

Select this component when an adjustable positive LDO with low dropout is required for inputs up to 13 V. The D2PAK-3 package offers a balance between thermal performance and board space efficiency. Consider the 1.25 V minimum output constraint when designing reference voltages. Verify thermal dissipation requirements based on the expected load current and ambient temperature conditions.
