The AU8011BA is a low-noise (6 μV RMS), low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) capable of sourcing 1 A with only 75 mV of max dropout. The device output voltage is adjustable from 0.8 V to 5.15 V using an external resistor divider.

AU8011BA is the ideal choice to power noise-sensitive components found in high speed interfaces such as SERDES, communication infrastructure such as High Speed ADCs, DACs and RF components due to its exceptional PSRR and low noise (6 μV RMS) characteristics.

The 5 V output capability of this device is well suited for RF amplifiers and RF front end. The AU8011BA device is also well suited for digital loads such as ASICs, FPGAs, and DSPs that require a low-input voltage and low-output voltage to minimize power dissipation while providing excellent transient performance that caters to current steps in digital loads due to clock domain switching, dynamic power and frequency scaling. The soft-start capability minimizes in-rush current, thereby allowing for a smooth and reliable start-up at the system level.
