Product Overview
The MIC5319-3.3YD5 from Microchip Technology (formerly Micrel) is a 500mA ultra-low dropout LDO regulator with a fixed 3.3V output. Featuring 200 mV dropout at 500mA, 70 dB PSRR at 1 kHz, and 30 uVrms output noise, it is designed for noise-sensitive RF and portable applications. The YD5 suffix denotes the thin SOT-23-5 (TSOT-23-5) package.
