Maxim Integrated Products introduces the MAX16999, a low-output-voltage linear regulator capable of delivering up to 100mA for always-on applications. Designed as a parallel supply for powering the core or interrupt section of a microcontroller during sleep mode, this device consumes a mere 13µA of quiescent current. To further reduce power consumption, it provides an enable input for placing the regulator in shutdown, in which it consumes only 0.3µA.
