What are the key features of MCP1801T-1802I/OT?
- 150 mA output current at fixed 1.8 V with only 430 mV typical dropout enabling single-cell LiPo operation down to 2 V input
- 10 V maximum input voltage allowing use directly from 9 V alkaline batteries or 5 V regulated rails with wide headroom
- Compact SOT-23-5 package minimizing board area for point-of-load 1.8 V regulation adjacent to RF modules and microcontrollers
What is MCP1801T-1802I/OT used for?
The MCP1801T-1802I/OT provides a clean regulated 1.8 V supply for low-voltage microcontrollers, RF transceivers, and memory devices in battery-powered portable electronics. With a 430 mV typical dropout voltage, it maintains regulation from single lithium-ion cells during discharge, making it suitable for Bluetooth Low Energy modules, ESP32 1.8 V core rails, and LPDDR memory supply in compact IoT designs. The SOT-23-5 package integrates easily alongside other SMD components on crowded mixed-signal PCBs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How low can the input voltage drop before the MCP1801T-1802I/OT loses regulation at full 150 mA load?
The MCP1801T-1802I/OT has a maximum dropout voltage of 530 mV at 150 mA output current, meaning it requires at least 2.33 V input to maintain the regulated 1.8 V output at full load. At lighter loads below 50 mA, the dropout drops to approximately 200 mV, extending usable operation to nearly 2.0 V input, which covers a lithium-ion cell discharging to its 3.0 V cutoff with substantial margin.
For an ESP32-based IoT sensor node, is the 150 mA output current of the MCP1801T sufficient for peak RF transmit bursts?
The ESP32 Wi-Fi transmit peaks can reach 500 mA momentarily, which exceeds the MCP1801T's 150 mA rating on the 1.8 V core supply alone. However, the MCP1801T is well matched to the 1.8 V I/O supply rail of the ESP32, which draws under 50 mA, while a higher-current LDO or DCDC converter handles the main 3.3 V rail. Pairing the MCP1801T with a 10 µF decoupling capacitor on the output suppresses transient voltage dips during 150 mA load steps within 1 µs.
When would a designer prefer the fixed 1.8 V MCP1801T over an adjustable LDO for a point-of-load LPDDR memory supply?
A fixed-output 1.8 V LDO like the MCP1801T eliminates the 2-resistor feedback divider required by adjustable regulators, reducing component count by 2 parts and removing the 0.1% resistor matching requirement that affects voltage accuracy. For LPDDR memories requiring 1.8 V ±5% tolerance (1.71 V to 1.89 V), the MCP1801T's factory-trimmed output accuracy of ±2% ensures compliance without a tolerance stack-up analysis across resistor tolerances and reference voltage variation.
