1.2V/1.32V 1A LOW DROPOUT FIXED-MODE REGULATOR
APE891X is a low dropout fixed-mode regulator with
minimum of 1A output current capability. The product is
specifically designed to provide well-regulated supply for low
voltage IC applications such as high-speed bus termination
and low current 1.2V/1.32V logic supply.
APE891X is guaranteed to have lower than 1.5V
dropout at full load current making it ideal to provide well-
regulated outputs of 1.2/1.32 with 3V to 6V input supply.

Note1. See thermal regulation specifications for changes in output voltage due to heating effects. Line and load
regulation are measured at a constant junction temperature by low duty cycle pulse testing.
Note2. Line and load regulation are guaranteed up to the maximum power dissipation of 15W. Power dissipation is
determined by the difference between input and output differential and the output current. Guaranteed maximum
power dissipation will not be available over the full input/output range.
Note3. Quiescent current is defined as the minimum output current required in maintaining regulation.

PIN DESCRIPITON
The input pin of the regulator. A minimum of 1uF connected
from this pin to ground to insure that the input voltage does not
sag below the minimum dropout voltage during the load transient
VOUT
response. This pin must always be 1.5V higher than VOUT in
order for the device to regulate properly.
Ground
VIN
The output of the regulator. A minimum of 1uF capacitor
to ground to insure stability.
