GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AMS2576 series offers a high-efficiency replacement for popular three-terminal linear regulators. Also it requires a minimum number of external components. It substantially not only reduces the area of board size but also the size of heat sink, and in some cases no heat sink is required. The ±4% tolerance on output voltage within specified input voltages and output load conditions is guaranteed. Also, the oscillator frequency accuracy is within ±10%. External shutdown is included. Featuring 80µA (typical) standby current. The output switch includes cycle-by-cycle current limiting, as well as thermal shutdown for full protection under fault conditions. This series are offered in 5-pin TO-263, TO-220 package. Block Diagram FEATURES
