Miniature LDO from Diodes Incorporated Features Low Noise, Small Footprint and Accuracy Advantages

Plano, Texas – October 30th, 2013 – With a high PSRR of 75dB at 1kHz and a low-noise performance of 60µVrms over the 10Hz to 100kHz range, the AP7340 low-dropout regulator from Diodes Incorporated ensures a high-quality supply for analog circuits in noise-sensitive audio, video and RF applications.  With its 1.0mm x 1.0mm DFN1010-4 package, the AP7340 suits the highest density portable product designs.

This miniature, low-noise LDO produces a 150mA output current for a wide input voltage range, starting from as low as 1.7V and extending up to a maximum of 5.25V.  It comprises a voltage reference, error amplifier, current limit and an enable input for output on/off control.  Its integrated resistor network produces fixed output voltages in 0.1V steps between 1.2V and 3.3V.

The AP7340’s output voltage accuracy is higher than other industry solutions, with an accuracy of ±1.5% over the entire operating temperature range of -40ºC to +85ºC.  This low-power LDO offers a typical quiescent current of just 35µA, helping to reduce product power consumption.

The AP7340 is priced at $0.10USD each in single reel quantities of 5k.  Further information is available from www.diodes.com

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored by Keysight

Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems.
