Available in 3.3V, 5.0V, 12V and Adjustable
voltage regulators with a maximum dropout of 1.5V at
Versions
3A of load current. It has the same pin-out as TI's
Current Limiting and Thermal Protection
industry standard LM317.
Output Current 3A
The LM1085 is available in an adjustable version,
Line Regulation 0.015% (typical)
which can set the output voltage with only two
external resistors. It is also available in three fixed
Load Regulation 0.1% (typical)
voltages: 3.3V, 5.0V and 12.0V. The fixed versions
integrate the adjust resistors.
APPLICATIONS
The LM1085 circuit includes a zener trimmed
