What is MCP1812BT-033/LB used for?
The MCP1812BT-033/LB is ideal for battery-powered IoT sensors and wearable devices that require a regulated 3.3 V rail from a single-cell lithium-ion or USB source, where its ultra-low quiescent current maximizes standby time. Wireless modules, Bluetooth Low Energy SoCs, and RFID reader front-ends benefit from its stable 3.3 V output with 0.05% load regulation, ensuring consistent RF performance across supply fluctuations. Its miniature SC70-3 footprint also suits coin-cell powered data loggers and asset trackers where PCB space and power budget are tightly constrained.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the dropout voltage of the MCP1812BT-033/LB, and can it regulate from a nearly depleted Li-ion cell?
The MCP1812BT-033/LB has a typical dropout voltage of 0.4 V and a maximum of 0.6 V, meaning it maintains a regulated 3.3 V output as long as the input stays above approximately 3.9 V, which is close to the practical minimum of a single-cell Li-ion battery at end of discharge.
How does the ultra-low quiescent current of the MCP1812BT-033/LB benefit always-on IoT sensor nodes?
In always-on IoT nodes that sleep most of the time, the quiescent current drawn by the LDO during standby directly reduces battery life; the MCP1812BT-033/LB's ultra-low Iq specification keeps this idle drain minimal, extending a coin-cell or Li-ion pack's lifespan by weeks or months compared to standard LDOs drawing hundreds of µA.
What is the package size of the MCP1812BT-033/LB, and how does it compare to a standard SOT-23?
The MCP1812BT-033/LB uses the SC70-3 package, which is roughly 40% smaller in footprint than the SOT-23-3, measuring approximately 1.25 mm × 2 mm versus 1.6 mm × 2.9 mm, making it an excellent choice for space-constrained wearable PCBs and ultra-thin sensor modules.
What input voltage sources are compatible with the MCP1812BT-033/LB?
The MCP1812BT-033/LB accepts input voltages from 3.9 V to 5.5 V (absolute maximum 6 V), making it compatible with USB 5 V bus power, four alkaline AA cells in series at approximately 5 V to 6 V initial voltage, single-cell lithium-ion at 4.2 V charged, and regulated 5 V wall adapters found in consumer electronics designs.
