REG711EA-3 Series

series introduction

# Introduction to the REG711EA - 3 Product Series

## Overview
The REG711EA - 3 product series is a cutting - edge line of voltage regulators designed to meet the diverse and demanding power management needs of modern electronic systems. These regulators are engineered with precision and incorporate advanced technologies to provide stable, efficient, and reliable power supply solutions across a wide range of applications.

## Key Features

### High - Precision Voltage Regulation
The REG711EA - 3 series offers exceptional voltage regulation accuracy. It can maintain a stable output voltage within a very narrow tolerance band, even in the face of fluctuations in the input voltage and changes in the load current. This high - precision regulation is crucial for sensitive electronic components such as microcontrollers, sensors, and communication modules, which require a consistent power supply to operate optimally.

### Low Dropout Voltage
One of the standout features of this product series is its low dropout voltage. The low dropout characteristic allows the regulator to operate effectively even when the input voltage is only slightly higher than the desired output voltage. This is particularly beneficial in battery - powered applications, as it helps to extend the battery life by maximizing the usable voltage range. For example, in portable devices where battery voltage gradually decreases over time, the low dropout voltage of the REG711EA - 3 ensures that the device can continue to function properly until the battery is almost completely depleted.

### Low Quiescent Current
The REG711EA - 3 regulators consume very low quiescent current in standby or light - load conditions. Quiescent current is the current drawn by the regulator when there is little or no load connected. A low quiescent current is essential for power - sensitive applications, as it minimizes power wastage and helps to improve the overall energy efficiency of the system. This makes the REG711EA - 3 series an ideal choice for battery - operated devices, wireless sensors, and other low - power applications.

### Thermal Protection
To ensure the reliability and longevity of the regulators, the REG711EA - 3 series is equipped with built - in thermal protection. In the event of excessive heat generation due to high load currents or high ambient temperatures, the thermal protection circuitry automatically reduces the output current or shuts down the regulator to prevent overheating. This feature not only protects the regulator itself but also safeguards the surrounding electronic components from damage caused by excessive heat.

### Short - Circuit Protection
Another important safety feature of the REG711EA - 3 series is short - circuit protection. In case of a short - circuit at the output, the regulator quickly detects the abnormal condition and limits the output current to a safe level. This prevents damage to the regulator and other components in the circuit, enhancing the overall system reliability.
