LT3085EMS8E#PBF Datasheet PDF - Linear Technology

●The LT3085EMS8E#PBF is an Adjustable 500mA Single Resistor Low Dropout Linear Regulator paralleled to increase output current or spread heat in surface mounted boards. Architected as a precision current source and voltage follower, this regulator benefits many applications requiring high current, adjustability to zero and no heat sink. The device also brings out the collector of the pass transistor to allow low dropout operation down to 275mV, when used with a second supply. A key feature of the LT3085 is the capability to supply a wide output voltage range. By using a reference current through a single resistor, the output voltage is programmed to any level between zero and 36V. The LT3085 is stable with 2.2µF of capacitance on the output and the IC uses small ceramic capacitors that do not require additional ESR as is common with other regulators. Internal protection circuitry includes current limiting and thermal limiting.
