Microsemi Corp. Voltage Regulators - Linear LX8584B-00CV

The LX8584B-00CV is a low dropout three-terminal positive voltage regulator capable of delivering a nominal output current of 7A. It features a dropout voltage of less than 1.4V at 7A, making it suitable for applications requiring well-regulated outputs between 2.5V and 3.6V with a 5V input supply. The device offers ±1% maximum voltage reference accuracy over temperature, ensuring reliable performance in critical applications. It includes built-in thermal limiting for protection against excessive junction temperatures and has a current limit trimmed above 7.1A to manage output current and short-circuit conditions. The LX8584B is available in both TO-220 and TO-247 packages, facilitating integration into various designs. This regulator is particularly well-suited for Pentium and Power PC processor applications, where fast transient response is essential.
