4.6A LOW D
THE INFINITE POWER OF INNOVATION
DESCRIPTION KEY FEATURES
The LX8585/85A Series ICs are low dropout three-terminal regulators with a minimum of 4.6A output current. Pentium
Processor and Power PCTM applications
requiring fast transient response are ideally suited for this product family. The
LX8585A is guaranteed to have < 1.2V
at 4.6A, while the LX8585 are specified
for 1.4V, making them ideal to provide
well regulated outputs of 2.5V to 3.6V
using a 5V input supply. Fixed versions
are also available and specified in the
Available Options table below.
Current limit is trimmed above 4.6A to
ensure adequate output current and con-

against any possible overload that would
create excessive junction temperatures.
The LX8585/85A family is available in
both through-hole and surface-mount
versions of the industry standard 3-pin
TO-220 / TO-263 power packages.
The LX1431 Programmable Reference
and LX8585A Series products offer precision output voltage and are ideal for
use in VRE applications (see application
below). For higher current applications,

Note 2. Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low duty cycle. Changes in output voltage due to heating
effects are covered under the specification for thermal regulation.
Note 3. These parameters, although guaranteed, are not tested in production.

is measured under the condition that V
