GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AMS1587 series of adjustable and fixed voltage regulators are designed to provide 3A output current and to operate
down to 1V input-to-output differential. The dropout voltage of the device is guaranteed maximum 1.3V at maximum output
current, decreasing at lower load currents.
On-chip trimming adjusts the reference voltage to 1%. Current limit is also trimmed, minimizing the stress under overload
conditions on both the regulator and power source circuitry.
The AMS1587 devices are pin compatible with older three-terminal regulators and are offered in 3 lead TO-220 package, 3
and 2 lead TO-263 (Plastic DD) and TO-252 (D PAK) package.

Parameters identified with boldface type apply over the full operating temperature range.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the

Electrical Characteristics

. The guaranteed specifications apply only for the test conditions listed.

Note 2: Line and Load regulation are guaranteed up to the maximum power dissipation of 15W. Power dissipation is determined by the input/output

differential and the output current. Guaranteed maximum power dissipation will not be available over the full input/output range.

Note 3: See thermal regulation specifications for changes in output voltage due to heating effects. Line and load regulation are measured at a constant junction

temperature by low duty cycle pulse testing. Load regulation is measured at the output lead ~1/8” from the package.

Note 4: Dropout voltage is specified over the full output current range of the device.
Note 5: Minimum load current is defined as the minimum output current required to maintain regulation. When (V
