We have a wide range of products that are perfect for powering circuits that need to be protected from noise, such as FPGAs, processors, and image sensors!
"NR1644" is a low-noise regulator that achieves both low noise and high PSRR.
We also have a wide range of other low noise regulator products in our lineup: "NR1640", "RP122/123", "NR1641", and "RP120".

As electronic devices become more powerful and sophisticated, the power supply voltages that supply devices such as FPGAs, processors, and image sensors are becoming lower and larger in current, leaving engineers with a lot of headaches when it comes to selecting the right power supply.
As the voltage of the entire system becomes lower, the operating voltage margin is shrinking and the requirement for power supply accuracy is becoming stricter. In particular, when noise is superimposed on the power supply of a sensing device, the signal-to-noise ratio deteriorates. As the noise sensitivity of the power supply is increasing, power supply ICs are required to have high noise removal performance.
Nisshinbo Micro Devices is expanding its product lineup to address these challenges.

Overview of NR1644

The NR1644 is a product designed to address the market trends of higher current, lower voltage, and lower noise.

The required elements of low noise, high ripple rejection (high RR), low current consumption, high output current, and high-speed response are achieved at the highest level.

CMOS Image Sensor Power Supply

Let's take a look at the requirements for the CMOS Image Sensor (hereafter referred to as CIS) that this product targets and its functions for meeting those requirements.
In order to achieve high image quality with low power consumption, there is a strong trend toward lower operating voltages for CIS, and the voltage regulator that drives the CIS requires low-voltage output and
A stable power supply (higher current to improve image quality) and low noise are also essential.
The long-awaited NR1644 has been released as an LDO voltage regulator to solve these issues.

Switching regulator post filter

Another challenge is to eliminate ripple in the switching power supply, as the voltage accuracy requirements become stricter as the SoC core power supply voltage becomes lower.
The NR1644 is capable of low voltage output, supports output currents up to 2.0A, and achieves a well-balanced combination of high RR and high-speed response characteristics, making it effective as a post-filter for switching regulators.

It is equipped with a "PG (Power Good) terminal" as a function.
