The RT9017 is designed for portable RF and wireless applications with demanding performance and space requirements. The RT9017 performance is optimized for battery-powered systems to deliver ultra low noise and low quiescent current. Regulator ground current increases only slightly in dropout, further prolonging the battery life. The RT9017 also works with low-ESR ceramic capacitors, reducing the amount of board space necessary for power applications, critical in hand-held wireless devices. The RT9017 consumes less than 0.01A in shutdown mode and has fast turn-on time less than 50s. RT9017 is short circuit thermal folded back protected. RT9017 lowers its OTP trip point from 165C to 110C when output short circuit occurs (VOUT < 0.4V) providing maximum safety to end users. The other features include ultra low dropout voltage, high output accuracy, current limiting protection, and high ripple rejection ratio. Available in the SOT-23-3, SOT-23-5 and WDFN-6L 2x2 packages, the RT9017 also offers a range of 1.5V to 3.5V with 0.1V per step.
