What this regulator does on an automotive rail
PSRR is 53 dB at 1 kHz rolling to 30 dB at 1 MHz.
Quiescent current and always-on loads
Quiescent current is 36 µA typical. For an automotive module that stays powered during key-off (body controller, remote keyless entry receiver), that Iq is low enough to avoid draining the battery over a multi-week parking period. The Enable pin lets the system microcontroller shut the regulator off entirely when the rail is not needed.
Protection and monitoring
Built-in protection covers over-current, over-temperature, and under-voltage lockout (UVLO). The Power Good open-drain output asserts when the output is within regulation — useful for sequencing downstream loads or resetting a microcontroller on power-up. The Enable pin is active-high and can be driven directly from a GPIO or a system supervisor.
Sourcing and lifecycle
It is an automotive-grade part, so it carries the usual PCN and long-lifecycle commitment expected for vehicle programs.
