series introduction

The ACT94WD18SA Series represents a cutting-edge line of high-performance, low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulators engineered for a diverse range of electronic applications. This series is distinguished by its compact design and exceptional efficiency, making it an ideal choice for powering sensitive electronic circuits that require stable voltage levels with minimal heat generation. With an input voltage range of 2.5V to 18V and an output current capability of up to 1.5A, the ACT94WD18SA Series provides flexibility for a variety of power management tasks, from portable devices to high-performance industrial equipment.

One of the standout features of the ACT94WD18SA Series is its ultra-low dropout voltage, which is typically less than 200mV at full load. This characteristic allows the regulator to maintain a stable output voltage even when the input voltage approaches the output voltage, a crucial requirement for battery-powered applications where every millivolt counts. Additionally, the series includes a robust thermal shutdown feature and short-circuit protection, ensuring safe operation under varying load conditions and enhancing the reliability of the overall system.

The design of the ACT94WD18SA Series emphasizes minimal external components, simplifying PCB layout and reducing the overall footprint. This makes it particularly suitable for space-constrained applications such as smartphones, tablets, and wearables. Furthermore, the series supports a wide range of output voltages through an external resistor divider, providing designers with the versatility to tailor the output to their specific needs.

Typical applications for the ACT94WD18SA Series extend beyond consumer electronics; they are also well-suited for telecommunication equipment, automotive systems, and industrial automation. The combination of high efficiency, low noise operation, and thermal management capabilities makes this series an excellent choice for powering RF circuits, analog devices, and microcontrollers, ensuring optimal performance across various environments. With the ACT94WD18SA Series, designers can achieve reliable power solutions that meet the demands of modern electronic systems.
