Overview
The L4993MDTR is a monolithic integrated 5 V voltage regulator produced by STMicroelectronics. It is designed with a low drop voltage and can handle currents up to 150 mA. The device features a p-channel MOS output voltage regulating element and maintains regulation regardless of input voltage transients up to 40 V. The high precision of the output voltage is achieved through a pre-trimmed reference voltage. The L4993MDTR is particularly suited for supplying microprocessor systems in automotive applications due to its advanced features such as reset and watchdog functionalities.
