What are the key features of MCP1702T-2502E/MB?
- Fixed 2.5 V output at up to 250 mA load current with a low 0.75 V typical dropout voltage for efficient battery-powered regulation
- Wide input voltage range of up to 13.2 V (absolute max 14.5 V) covering 9 V and 12 V unregulated supply rails
- SOT-89-3 medium-power package provides better thermal dissipation than SOT-23, handling up to 250 mA without an external heatsink
What is MCP1702T-2502E/MB used for?
MCP1702T-2502E/MB provides a stable 2.5 V reference rail for DACs, precision ADCs, and reference ICs in portable test equipment and industrial sensor modules powered from 9 V to 12 V adapters. Its low dropout voltage of 0.75 V makes it suitable for battery-backed systems where the supply voltage decays close to the output regulation point. The SOT-89-3 package enables efficient heat management at 250 mA load in compact PCB layouts without additional thermal hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 0.75 V typical dropout of MCP1702T-2502E/MB extend battery life in portable designs?
With only 0.75 V typical dropout at 250 mA, MCP1702T-2502E/MB maintains a 2.5 V output until the battery voltage drops to approximately 3.25 V, compared to 4 V for a regulator needing 1.5 V headroom. This extends usable battery capacity by 15 to 25 percent in alkaline or NiMH powered instruments.
What input voltage range makes MCP1702T-2502E/MB suitable for 12 V industrial power supplies?
MCP1702T-2502E/MB accepts input voltages from approximately 3.3 V to 13.2 V, with an absolute maximum of 14.5 V. This covers standard 12 V regulated and unregulated industrial supply rails, allowing it to generate a precise 2.5 V reference or logic rail without an additional pre-regulator, simplifying BOM for 12 V-powered sensor transmitters.
Why is the SOT-89-3 package of MCP1702T-2502E/MB preferred over SOT-23 for 250 mA applications?
The SOT-89-3 package has a larger exposed thermal pad and wider leads than SOT-23, providing lower thermal resistance and enabling 250 mA continuous output current at ambient temperatures up to 85°C. A SOT-23 regulator at the same current would require forced airflow or a heatsink, increasing system cost and PCB complexity.
Can MCP1702T-2502E/MB supply the 2.5 V reference input of a 16-bit ADC with sufficient accuracy?
Yes. MCP1702T-2502E/MB provides a fixed 2.5 V output with typically 0.4 percent output accuracy and excellent load regulation over -40°C to +125°C, meeting the reference voltage stability requirement for 16-bit ADCs where a 1 LSB error corresponds to 38 µV. The low 1.1 V maximum dropout ensures the regulated output holds stable under full load from a 3.6 V lithium cell.
