Have you used the ADN382 in a project? Let me know in the comments – especially if you’ve paired it with an ADN381 for dual-rail designs. If "adn382" refers to something else (a flight number, a chemical compound, a document code), please clarify and I’ll rewrite the post accordingly.
The ADN382 comes in a standard 8-pin SOIC package. Nothing flashy. But the datasheet tells a different story: 3V to 36V input range (hello, 24V industrial rails), with a fixed 3.3V or adjustable output down to 0.8V. The headline feature? at 500mA load. adn382
In real terms, that means less heat sinking and more room on your PCB for actual functionality. Have you used the ADN382 in a project

The enable pin threshold is a little loose (±0.3V around 1.2V). If you’re sequencing multiple rails, add a small external comparator or resistor divider – don’t rely on the raw logic level.
