Toshiba launches regulators with lower power consumption for battery-driven devices

KUALA LUMPUR, March 20 (Bernama) -- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) has launched two new series of small surface mount LDO regulators for application in the power supply of mobile devices, imaging and audio-visual products.
The 40 regulators in the TCR5BM series support a dropout voltage as low as 100mV and a maximum output current of 500mA while, another 40 regulators in the TCR8BM series extend support to 170mV and 800mA.

Both series are available with VOUT as low as 0.8V or as high as 3.6V which suit applications that include power supply for MCU, RF devices and camera CMOS sensors in mobile devices or imaging and audio-visual equipment.
By using a low on-resistance N-channel MOSFET fabricated with the latest generation process and external bias voltage, both series have cut dropout voltage - a cause of power loss - to about 67 per cent that of Toshiba’s current products.
The new products deliver stable operation resistant to high frequency noise from the external environment and DC-DC converters - both causing malfunction - and they also deliver a fast load transient response, preventing malfunctioning due to swift switching of IC operation modes.
Both series are housed in the small surface mount 1.2x1.2mm DFN5B package, which is excellent for space constrained designs. The TCR5BM series supports up to 500mA and the TCR8BM series supports up to 800mA, allowing users to design products more easily.
Toshiba is among the leading general device companies which offer customers and business partners outstanding solutions in discrete semiconductors, system LSIs and HDD. For more information, contact https://toshiba.semicon-storage.com.
