DescripTion
7.5A, 5A, 3A Low Dropout
Positive Adjustable Regulators
The LT
®
1083 series of positive adjustable regulators are
designed to provide 7.5A, 5A and 3A with higher efficiency
than currently available devices. All internal circuitry is
designed to operate down to 1V input-to-output differential
and the dropout voltage is fully specified as a function of
load current. Dropout is guaranteed at a maximum of 1.5V
at maximum output current, decreasing at lower load cur
-
rents. On-chip trimming adjusts the reference voltage to
1%. Current limit is also trimmed
, minimizing the stress
on both the regulator and power source circuitry under
overload conditions.
The LT1083/LT1084/LT1085 devices are pin compatible
with older 3-terminal regulators. A 10µF output capacitor
is required on these new devices. However, this is included
in most regulator designs.
Unlike PNP regulators, where up to 10% of the output cur
-
rent is wasted as quiescent current, the LT1083 quiescent
current flows into the load, increasing efficiency.
