GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The L1085 is a positive and low dropout
three-terminal voltage regulator with 3A output current capability. This device is designed for use in low voltage applications that
offers lower dropout voltage and faster transient response.
This device is fully protected against over
current faults, over temperature operation,
reversed input polarity, reversed lead insertion, transient voltage spike …etc.
On-Chips trimming the reference voltage to
1% and features the low dropout of maximum 1.50 volts.
The L1085 Series regulators are available
in the popular industry standard TO-263
TO-220 and TO-252 packages.
