OUTPUT DECOUPLING CAPACITANCE > 1300µF ON FIXED VOLTAGE PARTS TO ACHIEVE
< 50mV OF DEVIATION FROM NOMINAL OUTPUT. CONSULT FACTORY FOR DETAILS
The LT
®
1584/LT1585/LT1587 are low dropout three-
terminal regulators with 7A, 4.6A and 3A output current
capability, respectively. Design has been optimized for low
voltage applications where transient response and mini-
mum input voltage are critical. Similar to the LT1083/4/5
family, it has lower dropout voltage and faster transient
response. These improvements make it ideal for low volt-
age microprocessor applications requiring a regulated
2.5V to 3.6V output with an input supply below 7V.
Current limit is trimmed to ensure specified output current
and controlled short-circuit current. On-chip thermal lim-
iting provides protection against any combination of over-
load that would create excessive junction temperatures.
The LT1585/LT1587 are available in both the through-hole
and surface mount versions of the industry standard 3-pin
TO-220 power package. The LT1584 is available in the
through-hole 3-pin TO-220 power package.
