The product is specifically designed to provide well-regulated supply for low voltage IC applications such as high -speed bus termination and low current logic supply. GE1117A50 is also well suited for other applications such as VGA cards .GE1117A50 is guaranteed to have lower than 1.4V dropout at full load current making it ideal to provide well-regulated outputs 5.0V with 6.4V to 15V input supply. Features 1.4Vmaximum dropout full load current Fast transient response Output current limiting Built-in thermal shutdown Good noise rejection Applications PC peripheral Communication Package Dimensions REF.

A minimum of 10uF capacitor must be connected from this pin to ground to insure stability. The input pin of regulator. Typically a large storage capacitor is connected from this pin to ground to insure that the input voltage does not sag below the minimum dropout voltage during the load transient response. This pin must always be 1.3V higher than Vout in order for the device to regulate properly.

Line and load regulation are measured at a constant junction Temperature by low duty cycle pulse testing. Load regulation is measured at the output lead =1/18” from the package. Note 2: Line and load regulation are guaranteed up to the maximum power dissipation of 15W. Power dissipation is determined by the difference between input and output and the output current. Guaranteed maximum power dissipation will not be available over the full input/output range. Note 3: Quiescent current is defined as the minimum output current required in maintaining regulation. At 12V input/output differential the device is guaranteed to regulate if the output current is greater than 10mA.
