General Description
The MIC38300A is a 3A current step-down converter that provides the benefits of an LDO in respect to ease of use, fast transient performance, high PSRR, and low noise while offering the efficiency of a switching regulator.
As output voltages move lower, the output noise and transient response of a switching regulator bee an increasing challenge for designers. By bining a switcher whose...
