DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION
The US1010 is a low dropout three terminal adjustable
regulator with minimum of 1A output current capability.
This product is specifically designed to provide well regulated supply for low voltage IC applications such as high
speed bus termination and low current 3.3V logic
supply. The US1010 is also well suited for other appli-
cations such as VGA and sound cards. The US 1010 is
guaranteed to have <1.3V drop out at full load current making it ideal to provide well regulated outputs of
2.5V to 3.6V with 4.75V to 7V input supply.
