GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP3342 is a unique member of the ADP330x family of precision low dropout anyCAP voltage regulators. The ADP3342 operates with an input voltage range of 1.7 V to 6 V and delivers a continuous load current up to 300 mA. In order to support the ability to regulate from such a low input voltage, the power rail to the IC, VCC, has been split off from the main power rail, VIN, from which the output is powered.

FEATURES
   Accuracy Over Line and Load: ±4.0% @ 25C,
      ±5% Over Temperature
   Ultralow Dropout Voltage: 300 mV (Typ) @ 300 mA
   Requires Only CO = 1.0 μF for Stability
   anyCAP = Stable with any Type of Capacitor
      (including MLCC)
   Current and Thermal Limiting
   Low Shutdown Current: < 2 μA
   1.7 V ≤ VIN ≤ 6 V
