CS8101YTVA5G

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

The CS8101YTVA5G is a fixed-output low-dropout linear voltage regulator manufactured by onsemi. It provides a stable 5 V output with a maximum continuous current of 100 mA. The device features a positive polarity configuration and operates within an input voltage range up to 30 V. Key electrical parameters include a dropout voltage of 400 mV at nominal load, increasing to 600 mV at full 100 mA capacity. Line regulation and load regulation are both specified at 50 mV. The unit maintains a voltage accuracy of 2% and exhibits a static current of 20 mA. It supports through-hole mounting in a TO-220-5 package and functions reliably across an extended temperature range from -40°C to +125°C.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Feature Summary

• Integrated thermal overload protection safeguards the device against excessive heat generation during operation.
• Built-in overvoltage protection prevents damage to downstream components from input transients.
• Reverse polarity protection allows safe connection even if input and ground leads are swapped.
• Short-circuit protection limits output current to prevent component failure during fault conditions.

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

• Power supply conditioning for microcontroller logic circuits
• Voltage regulation for sensor interface modules
• Biasing stages in analog signal processing chains

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

This component is officially listed as obsolete or discontinued by the manufacturer. Sourcing requires verification of availability through authorized distributors or secondary market suppliers such as Rochester Electronics. Buyers must confirm the specific revision status and authenticity before procurement. Lead times may vary significantly due to limited stock levels. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives and verify that the received units match the exact part number specifications to avoid integration issues.

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

Select this regulator when a fixed 5 V rail is required with moderate current demands up to 100 mA. The TO-220-5 package suits applications requiring robust thermal dissipation via heatsinking. Verify that the input voltage does not exceed the 30 V maximum rating. Consider the 20 mA static current consumption; it may be high for ultra-low-power battery applications. The wide operating temperature range makes it suitable for industrial environments where ambient temperatures fluctuate significantly.

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

The CS8101YTVA5G belongs to the CS8101 series of MicroPower LDO regulators from onsemi. This series focuses on providing reliable voltage regulation with integrated safety features. The TO-220-5 form factor distinguishes it from surface-mount variants, offering higher power handling capabilities. It serves as a legacy solution for designs requiring simple, robust linear regulation without complex external component networks.

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

Verify compatibility with CS8101YTHA5G, which shares similar electrical characteristics but may differ in pin orientation or mechanical details. Cross-reference with other CS8101 family members to ensure pin-to-pin compatibility if redesigning the PCB layout. Confirm that substitute parts maintain the same 5 V output and 100 mA current rating.
