GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The NCT3705U is a low supply current and low dropout linear regulator which provides
500mA power for battery-powered application such as notebook computers, cellular phones,
and handheld devices. An over current protection and an over-temperature protection circuit
were built-in the chip to prevent current and thermal overload. Featured low noise, high PSRR
and low dropout make it ideal for audio codec and handheld devices. It comes in a space
saving SOT-23-5 package and suitable for handheld applications.
The NCT3705U has two versions for different operation circuits. In fixed mode, the SET pin is
connected to ground. The output voltage is a preset value. There is no external component
required. When an output other than the preset value is needed, two external resistors should
be used as an output voltage divider and operates in adjustable mode. The output voltage can
be adjusted by the resistor ratio and regulates from 1.25V to 5.0V.
