Three-Ampere Positive
Voltage Regulators
This family of fixed voltage regulators are monolithic integrated circuits capable of driving loads in excess of 3.0 A. These three±terminal regulators employ internal current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe±area compensation. Devices are available with improved specifications, including a 2% output voltage tolerance, on AC±suffix 5.0, 12 and 15 V device types.
Although designed primarily as a fixed voltage regulator, these devices can be used with external components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents. This series of devices can be used with a series±pass transistor to supply up to 15 A at the nominal output voltage.
•Output Current in Excess of 3.0 A
•Power Dissipation: 25 W
•No External Components Required
•Output Voltage Offered in 2% and 4% Tolerance*
•Thermal Regulation is Specified
•Internal Thermal Overload Protection
•Internal Short Circuit Current Limiting
•Output Transistor Safe±Area Compensation

A common ground is required between the input and the output voltages. The input voltage must remain typically 2.2 V above the output voltage even during the low point on the input ripple voltage.
XX these two digits of the type number indicate voltage.
** Cin is required if regulator is located an appreciable distance from power supply filter.
**(See Applications Information for details.)
**CO is not needed for stability; however, it does improve transient response.
