The LE45CZ is a fixed-output linear voltage regulator manufactured by STMicroelectronics. It provides a stable 4.5V output with a maximum current capacity of 100mA. The device supports an input voltage range up to 18V and features a typical dropout voltage of 0.5V at full load. It operates with a low quiescent current of approximately 1mA, ensuring efficient power management in battery-powered applications.
Verify the package type matches your design requirements, as this component is typically available in TO-92-3 through-hole packaging. Confirm that the fixed 4.5V output aligns with your system's voltage needs, as adjustable variants are not applicable here. Ensure thermal management considerations are addressed for the specific PCB layout to maintain reliability under continuous load conditions.
Select this regulator when a fixed 4.5V rail is required with moderate current demands up to 100mA. It is suitable for applications prioritizing low noise and simple implementation over high efficiency. Consider the input voltage headroom relative to the dropout voltage to ensure stable regulation across the entire operating temperature range and load profile.
This component belongs to the family of low-dropout linear regulators designed for general-purpose power management. Unlike high-voltage industrial LDOs, this part focuses on low-power consumer and industrial electronics where simplicity and cost-effectiveness are critical. It serves as a fundamental building block for creating clean DC voltages from higher unregulated sources.
Check for pin-compatible alternatives such as other 4.5V fixed LDOs in TO-92 packages from different manufacturers. Verify that substitute parts meet or exceed the 100mA output current and 18V input voltage specifications. Ensure thermal performance and PSRR characteristics are comparable to avoid signal integrity issues in sensitive circuits.
