Frequently Asked Questions
How does the dropout voltage of MCP1824ST-1802E/DB affect its usability with a Li-Ion battery near end-of-discharge?
The MCP1824ST-1802E/DB has a maximum dropout voltage of 320 mV, so the 1.8 V output remains regulated down to an input of approximately 2.12 V. Since Li-Ion cells discharge to roughly 2.7-3.0 V at end-of-life, this regulator maintains a stable 1.8 V rail throughout the battery's usable capacity, extending effective run time in IoT sensors and wearable devices.
What is the maximum output current the MCP1824ST-1802E/DB can deliver, and what thermal constraints apply?
The MCP1824ST-1802E/DB sources up to 300 mA continuously. In the SOT-223-3 package, the exposed tab lowers thermal resistance to approximately 60°C/W junction-to-board, limiting safe dissipation at 25°C ambient to roughly 1 W before derating. Designs drawing close to 300 mA with a 6 V input (1.26 W dissipation) require careful PCB copper pour or a heatsink tab connection.
Which microcontroller and peripheral combinations are compatible with the fixed 1.8 V output of MCP1824ST-1802E/DB?
The fixed 1.8 V output directly powers 1.8 V I/O microcontrollers such as many ARM Cortex-M0+ and RISC-V parts, alongside LPDDR2 memories, BLE SoCs, and NOR Flash devices rated at 1.7 V to 1.95 V. Input supply range from 2.1 V to 6 V covers 3.3 V regulated rails, 5 V USB, and 3.7 V Li-Ion cells, making it versatile across a wide range of embedded power trees.
How does MCP1824ST-1802E/DB compare to adjustable LDOs for fixed-voltage designs?
A fixed-output device like the MCP1824ST-1802E/DB eliminates the two external resistors required by adjustable LDOs, reducing BOM count and the risk of feedback network errors that could produce an incorrect output voltage. The fixed trim also achieves tighter initial accuracy than resistor-divider tolerances allow, typically within ±2% of 1.8 V, which is important for logic families with narrow 1.7 V to 1.95 V supply windows.
