Adjustable LDO for 5 V rails — what the 50 dB PSRR tells you
The BD00KA5WF-E2: The BD00KA5WF-: The ROHM BD00KA5WF- is a single-output adjustable positive LDO regulator in an 8-SOIC package, delivering up to 500 mA from a 5.5 V maximum input rail. Its 50 dB PSRR at 120 Hz means it knocks down mains-frequency ripple by a factor of about 316 — relevant if you are feeding a clean analog rail from a switching preregulator or a lightly filtered 5 V bus.
Output range and dropout — where the headroom lives
Output is adjustable from 1 V up to 4 V via an external resistor divider. The maximum dropout is 0.2 V at 200 mA. Quiescent current maxes at 550 µA, and the part includes enable control plus over-current and over-temperature protection.
