Key Features

  • 250mA output current with ultra-low 400mV typical dropout voltage enabling efficient regulation from Li-ion and alkaline sources
  • Fixed 3.0V output at ±2% accuracy across -40°C to +125°C industrial temperature range
  • Tiny SOT-23-3 package with up to 10V absolute maximum input voltage for robust overvoltage tolerance

Applications

The MCP1701AT-3002I/CB is ideal for battery-powered portable devices such as handheld instruments, IoT sensors, and wearables where a stable 3.0V rail is required from a Li-ion or 4AA alkaline source. Its low dropout of 400mV ensures regulation down to near-end battery conditions, extending usable battery life. The compact SOT-23 footprint suits tight PCB layouts in space-constrained consumer and industrial applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the dropout voltage and maximum output current of the MCP1701AT-3002I/CB under load?

The MCP1701AT-3002I/CB has a typical dropout voltage of 400mV at full load and supports up to 250mA output current. This low dropout allows the regulator to maintain 3.0V output from a Li-ion battery down to approximately 3.4V input.

For a battery-powered IoT sensor running from two AA cells, can the MCP1701AT-3002I/CB sustain 3.0V output as the batteries discharge?

Two fresh AA alkaline cells provide about 3V combined, which is below the 4V minimum input of MCP1701AT-3002I/CB, so this part is not recommended for a 2xAA configuration. However, with 3xAA (4.5V fresh) it will regulate at 3.0V with 250mA capability down to roughly 3.4V input before dropout.

How does the MCP1701AT-3002I/CB compare in package size to TO-92 LDO regulators for compact PCB designs?

The MCP1701AT-3002I/CB uses a SOT-23-3 surface-mount package, which occupies significantly less PCB area than through-hole TO-92 packages. SOT-23 measures approximately 3mm x 1.7mm, enabling high-density layouts with automated SMT placement not possible with TO-92 components.
