Key Features
- Ultra-low quiescent current in the sub-microamp range for extended battery life in always-on IoT and wearable applications
- Fixed 3.0 V output with 0.4 V typical dropout voltage operating from 3.6 V to 5.5 V input rail, compatible with single-cell Li-ion and alkaline sources
- Tiny 5-pin SC70 package measuring under 2.0 mm x 2.1 mm minimizes PCB area in space-constrained portable and wearable designs
Applications
MCP1811AT-030/LT is optimized for IoT sensor nodes, wearable electronics, and wireless beacons powered by coin cells or Li-ion batteries where the standby current budget is under 1 µA. Its 3.0 V fixed output and low 0.4 V dropout allow the regulator to operate from a nearly discharged 3.7 V Li-ion cell, maximizing usable energy extraction in compact devices like smart tags, medical patches, and environmental monitors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How low is the quiescent current of MCP1811AT-030/LT and how does this extend battery run time?
MCP1811AT-030/LT draws ultra-low quiescent current in the sub-microamp range (typically under 600 nA), meaning a 220 mAh CR2032 coin cell could supply the regulator's own bias for over 40 years. This enables always-on IoT devices to achieve multi-year battery life when the load sleeps and consumes only a few microamps.
What input voltage range is required for MCP1811AT-030/LT and which battery chemistries are compatible?
MCP1811AT-030/LT accepts 3.6 V to 5.5 V input, making it directly compatible with a single Li-ion cell (3.6–4.2 V), a 4-cell alkaline pack (~6 V via a series resistor), or a 5 V USB supply. The 0.4 V typical dropout means it keeps regulating at 3.0 V output down to a 3.4 V depleted Li-ion cell, extracting near-full battery capacity.
How does MCP1811AT-030/LT compare to a standard 3.3 V LDO for a Bluetooth beacon design?
MCP1811AT-030/LT provides 3.0 V at ultra-low quiescent current below 600 nA, versus typical LDOs drawing 50–200 µA quiescent. For a Bluetooth beacon spending 99% of its time in deep sleep drawing 2 µA, replacing a 100 µA quiescent LDO with MCP1811AT saves roughly 98 µA continuously, extending a 100 mAh battery from ~5 months to over 5 years.
What is the footprint of MCP1811AT-030/LT and how does it fit into a compact wearable PCB?
MCP1811AT-030/LT uses a 5-pin SC70 package measuring approximately 1.25 mm x 2.0 mm with 0.65 mm pitch, occupying under 3 mm² of board area. This is small enough to fit alongside a BLE SoC and coin-cell holder on a single 10 mm x 15 mm flex PCB layer, which is a common form factor for medical patches and smart tags.
