Mobile app simplifies sourcing of STM's products
The ST Voltage Regulator Finder app helps engineers, purchasers, students, or makers find and buy STMicroelectronics’ voltage regulators, precision voltage references, or DC/DC converters, quickly and easily from a smartphone or tablet. Users can search by part number, parameter, or product family to identify suitable components and view key features in the app.
Parametric searches are easily filtered, using checkboxes to choose options such as automotive or industrial qualification, and sliders to limit parameters like input or output voltage, output current, or reference voltage.
Other searchable parameters include package style, temperature range, and marketing status. Shortlisted components can be saved in My Favorites for convenient access later. The app works offline, so users can identify the parts they need even if no Internet connection is available.
When connected, datasheets for the selected parts are just a tap away. There is a Sample and Buy option that gives live inventory at ST distributors, and Order Now goes directly to online purchasing from any chosen supplier. There are also handy links to find ST sales offices and distributors worldwide for support or further information.
In total, the database contains over 1100 components, including buck, boost, buck/boost, and multi-output DC/DC converters, standard low-dropout regulators (LDOs) and high-PSRR, low-Iq (quiescent current), or ultra-low-dropout types, and precision voltage references
ST Voltage Regulator Finder is available now, free of charge for iOS and Android platforms in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
