The VRD1218LTX is a 1.8V, 12A SOT-26 RoHS-compliant LDO with an integrated dropout regulator. It is manufactured by AnaSem, a manufacturer of high-efficiency power conversion and protection semiconductor products. The VRD1218LTX delivers up to 12A of continuous output current, making it suitable for a wide range of high-current applications. It also features a low dropout voltage of typically 195mV at a 12A load, enabling highly efficient operation during light load conditions. Its stability is ensured even with small ceramic output capacitors. The VRD1218LTX also features over-temperature, short-circuit, over-current, and reverse bias protection to protect the device from outside interference and to prolong the life of the component. It is also equipped with an enable pin for sequenced power on/off control. This efficient and reliable LDO is the ideal choice for a wide range of high-current applications with a need for minimal power losses.
