The AZ317 is an adjustable three-terminal positive
voltage regulator with a very low dropout of 1.2V at
1A output current. Using 2 external resistors, the
AZ317 can provide an adjustable output voltage down
to 1.25V.
The AZ317 includes a circuit of trimmed bandgap reference to assure output voltage accuracy to be within
1%. It also provides current limiting and thermal shutdown. The current limit is trimmed to ensure specified
output current and controlled short-circuit current. The
On-chip thermal limiting provides protection against
any combination of overload and ambient temperature
that would create excessive junction temperature.
The AZ317 is available in the standard SOT-223, TO220-3, TO-252-2 (1), TO-252-2 (3) and TO-263-3
power packages.
BCD Semiconductor's Pb-free products, as designated with "E1" suffix in the part number, are RoHS compliant. Products with
"G1" suffix are available in green packages.
Note1: Stresses greater than those listed under "Absolute Maximum Ratings" may cause permanent damage to the
device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond
those indicated under "Recommended Operating Conditions" is not implied. Exposure to "Absolute Maximum
Ratings" for extended periods may affect device reliability.
