Description
.eatures
The EZ1584 is a high performance positive voltage
regulator designed for use in applications requiring low
dropout performance at 7A. Additionally, the EZ1584
series provides excellent regulation over variations in line,
load and temperature.
Outstanding features include low dropout performance
at rated current, fast transient response, internal
current limiting and thermal shutdown protection of the
output device.
The EZ1584 is an excellent choice for powering
microprocessor systems. Using an LDO eliminates
MOS.ETs and inductors, saving both space and cost. An
LDO also provides better transient response and no
ripple.
A variety of options are available for maximum flexibility:
the EZ1584C is intended for commercial applications and
has both fixed and adjustable voltage options; the
EZ1584I is intended for industrial applications and has
a 3.3V fixed and an adjustable option. All devices are
available in the popular TO-220 package.
