The RT9198/A is designed for portable RF and wireless applications where performance and space requirements are demanding. The RT9198/A performance is optimized for battery powered systems to provide ultra-low noise and low static current. The voltage regulator grounding current increases only slightly in dropout, further extending battery life.
Function Block Diagram
The RT9198/A also uses low-ESR ceramic capacitors, reducing the amount of board space required for power applications, which is critical in handheld wireless devices. The RT9198/A has a power consumption of less than 0.01uA in shutdown mode and a fast startup time of less than 50us.
Typical application circuit
Other features include ultra-low voltage, high output accuracy, current limiting protection, and high ripple rejection ratio. In the SOT-23-3, SOT-23-5, TSOT-23-3, TSOT-23-5, SC-70-5, SC-82, SOP-8 and WDFN 6L 2x2 packages, the RT9198/A is also offered in the 1.5V to 5.0V range with 0.1V per step.
