1.5A Single Resistor
Rugged Linear Regulator
with Monitors
The LT
®
3081 is a 1.5A low dropout linear regulator de-
signed for rugged industrial applications. Key features of
the IC are the extended safe operating area (SOA), output
current monitor, temperature monitor and programmable
current limit. The LT3081 can be paralleled for higher
output current or heat spreading. The device withstands
reverse input and reverse output-to-input voltages without
reverse current flow.
The LT3081’s precision 50µA reference current source
allows a single resistor to program output voltage to
any level between zero and 34.5V. The current reference
architecture makes load regulation independent of output
voltage. The LT3081 is stable with or without input and
output capacitors.
The output current monitor (I
OUT
/5000) and die junction
temperature output (1µA/°C) provide system monitoring
and debug capability. In addition, a single resistor pro-
grams current limit.
Internal protection circuitry includes reverse-battery and
reverse-current protection, current limiting and thermal
limiting. The LT3081 is offered in the 16-lead TSSOP (with
exposed pad for improved thermal performance), 7-lead
TO-220, 7-lead DD-Pak, and an 12-lead 4mm × 4mm DFN.
