Product Overview
The LP2950-33LPRE3 is a micropower low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator providing a fixed 3.3V output at up to 100mA. With only 75µA quiescent current, 380mV dropout at full load, and 0.5% initial output accuracy, it is ideal for battery-powered applications in a through-hole TO-92 package from onsemi (originally TI/National).
