The LM2984C positive voltage regulator features three independent
and tracking outputs capable of delivering the
power for logic circuits, peripheral sensors and standby
memory in a typical microprocessor system. The LM2984C
includes circuitry which monitors both its own high-current
output and also an external mP. If any error conditions are
sensed in either, a reset error flag is set and maintained until
the malfunction terminates. Since these functions are included
in the same package with the three regulators, a
great saving in board space can be realized in the typical
microprocessor system. The LM2984C also features very
low dropout voltages on each of its three regulator outputs
(0.6V at the rated output current). Furthermore, the quiescent
current can be reduced to 1 mA in the standby mode.
