GS7163
GStek
3A Ultra Low Dropout Linear Regulator
Package Type: TDFN10-3x3
The GS7163 can deliver up to 3A of continuous output current with a typical dropout voltage of only 170mV using internal n-channel MOSFETs. The linear regulator uses a separate VCNTL supply to power the control circuitry and drive the Inter- nal n-channel MOSFETs. The output voltage is adjustable from 1.05V to the voltage that is very close to VIN. The GS7163 allows the use of low-ESR ceramic capacitor as low as 10uF. Moreover the IC provides good performance on both line transient response and load transient response. The GS7163 provides current limit, short current protection and thermal shutdown to prevent the linear regulator from damage. Built-in soft-start minimizes stress on the input power source by reducing capacitive inrush current on start-up. During start-up, POK remain low until the output reaches 92% of its rating value. The GS7163 is available in TDFN10-3x3 package.
