PQ15RW11J00H

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

The Sharp Microelectronics PQ15RW11J00H is a positive adjustable linear low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator housed in a TO-220-4 through-hole package. It delivers a maximum output current of 2A with an input voltage range up to 20V. The output voltage is adjustable from 3V to 15V. Key electrical specifications include a maximum dropout voltage of 0.5V at 2A, a quiescent current of 8 mA, and a power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) of 55dB at 120Hz. The device operates within a temperature range of -20°C to 80°C.

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

Verify the exact part number PQ15RW11J00H against official Sharp Microelectronics documentation before procurement. Confirm that the RW suffix correctly denotes the adjustable output variant with the specific pinout configuration required for your design. Ensure compatibility with the TO-220-4 mounting style and verify lead availability as component status may vary.

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

Select this component when a robust 2A linear regulator with adjustable output is required. It is suitable for applications where low noise and high PSRR are prioritized over switching efficiency. Consider the thermal performance in the TO-220-4 package under maximum load conditions. Ensure the input voltage does not exceed the 20V absolute maximum rating to prevent device damage.

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

This component belongs to the PQ15 series of linear regulators from Sharp Microelectronics. The series typically offers high-current capabilities in standard through-hole packages. The PQ15RW11J00H specifically utilizes the RW designation to indicate its adjustable output nature, distinguishing it from fixed-voltage variants within the same family.

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

Consult official Sharp Microelectronics substitution guides for verified alternatives. Generic LDO replacements must match the 2A current rating, TO-220-4 package, and adjustable output range. Verify pin compatibility and thermal characteristics before swapping.
