Automotive environments are brutal: extreme temperatures, high noise, and wide voltage ranges are the norm. While switching regulators handle the heavy lifting, Low-Dropout Regulators (LDOs) are the unsung heroes delivering the clean power integrity required by sensitive sensors, cameras and MCUs.
In this video, we take a hardware-level look at our Automotive LDO B.B.S. Evaluation Board. This modular platform features nine independent sub-modules, allowing engineers to validate noise, thermal performance, and transients for specific automotive-grade regulators—one at a time or side-by-side.
What we cover:
Precision & Low-Noise Rails: A look at the MAQ5300 and MIC5233 for ADC biasing and sensor references.
High-Input-Voltage Regulation: How the MCP1722 and MCP1733 regulate directly from battery domains.
High-Current Support: Powering SoCs and domain controllers with up to 1A using the MCP1825S and MCP1826S.
Layout Intent: Why our automotive-grade PCB layout ensures repeatable, accurate lab results.
Whether you are designing for ADAS cameras or high-performance domain controllers, this evaluation platform is designed to help you move from validation to production faster.
