GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Overcurrent and thermal protection are integrated onto the chip. Output current will limit as it reaches the pre-set current or temperature limit. At full rated output current the dropout voltage is 1.4V (max.). AME1086 series regulators provide excellent regulation over line, load and temperature variations. n Key FEATURES
l l l l l l l l Low dropout voltage 1.2V typically at 1.5A Adjustable or 3.3V fixed voltage Line regulation typically 0.015% Load regulation typically 0.05% Adjust pin (ADJ) current less than 90µA Overcurrent protection Thermal protection Available in TO-220, TO-263, TO-252 n APPLICATIONS
