LM1085
3A Low Dropout Positive Regulators
General Description
The LM1085 is a series of low dropout positive voltage
regulators with a maximum dropout of 1.5V at 3A of load
current. It has the same pin-out as National Semiconductor’s
industry standard LM317.
The LM1085 is available in an adjustable version, which can
set the output voltage with only two external resistors. It is
also available in three fixed voltages: 3.3V, 5.0V and 12.0V.
The fixed versions integrate the adjust resistors.
The LM1085 circuit includes a zener trimmed bandgap reference,
current limiting and thermal shutdown.
The LM1085 series is available in TO-220 and TO-263 packages.
Refer to the LM1084 for the 5A version, and the
LM1086 for the 1.5V version.
