Product News 2020-02

The package photograph of a general-purpose package is newly available in the lineup of Toshiba’s small, surface mount LDO regulator which enables long operation and operational stability of IoT equipment : TCR3UF series.

Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") have developed 74 types of "TCR3UF series", small surface mount LDO regulators which adopt SMV package with a maximum output current of 300 mA. And they have extended Toshiba’s lineup.

The new "TCR3UF series" is for power management of IoT equipment, wearable devices, mobile devices, etc. It has low consumption current characteristics, and features an industry's leading trade-off between high ripple rejection ratio and high speed load transient response[1]. Various protection functions such as overheat protection, overcurrent protection, and inrush current limiter are also incorporated.
In addition to the previously released compact and low height WCSP4F package "TCR3UG series" and the small and general-purpose DFN4 package "TCR3UM series", the new lead type and general-purpose SMV package "TCR3UF series" has been released this time.
The TCR3UF series is suitable for battery-powered devices that operate for a long time and power supplies for sensors that are susceptible to voltage fluctuations such as noise. There are 37 types of output voltage in the range of 0.8 V to 5.0 V, and a total of 74 types are available, with or without auto-discharge. Products can be selected according to the intended application.
