Key Features
- Fixed 3.0 V output with low dropout voltage of 0.7 V nominal (1.3 V max), enabling efficient regulation from inputs as low as 6 V
- Wide input voltage range of 6 V to 30 V with 48 V absolute maximum, suitable for rugged industrial power rails
- Compact 5-pin SOT-223 package with 70 mA output current for space-constrained PCB designs
Applications
The MCP1791T-3002E/DC is well-suited for industrial control systems, automotive accessories, and sensor conditioning circuits that require a stable 3.0 V supply from higher-voltage rails up to 30 V. Its low quiescent current and wide input range make it ideal for battery-backed or unregulated DC bus applications. It also suits microcontroller power supply rails in embedded systems where a compact footprint is critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum output current the MCP1791T-3002E/DC can deliver, and what dropout voltage should designers budget?
The MCP1791T-3002E/DC delivers up to 70 mA of output current. Its nominal dropout voltage is 0.7 V, with a maximum of 1.3 V, so the input must remain at least 1.3 V above the 3.0 V regulated output to maintain full regulation under worst-case conditions.
Which input voltage range can the MCP1791T-3002E/DC tolerate in an industrial 24 V bus environment?
The device accepts input voltages from 6 V to 30 V continuously, with an absolute maximum of 48 V for transient protection. This makes it directly compatible with a nominal 24 V industrial bus, providing a stable 3.0 V output with good margin against typical bus fluctuations of ±20%.
How does the 5-pin SOT-223 package of the MCP1791T-3002E/DC compare to a standard 3-pin SOT-223 in thermal dissipation?
The 5-pin SOT-223 adds a redundant exposed tab pin that improves thermal conduction to the PCB copper pour, reducing junction-to-board thermal resistance compared to a 3-pin SOT-223. At 70 mA and a 27 V input-output differential, this thermal path helps keep the device within its operating temperature limits without an external heatsink.
When is the MCP1791T-3002E/DC a suitable replacement for a 78L03 regulator in a 24 V system?
The MCP1791T-3002E/DC is preferable to the 78L03 when the input exceeds 15 V, because its 30 V rated input (48 V abs. max) and 1.3 V max dropout comfortably handle 24 V rails where the 78L03 is often over-stressed. Its SOT-223 footprint also dissipates heat more effectively than a TO-92 package for the same 70 mA load current.
