CS5208−1

8.0 A LDO 3−Pin Adjustable

Linear Regulator

The CS5208−1 linear regulator provides 8.0 A at adjustable

voltages from 1.25 V to 4.5 V. This adjustable device requires two

external resistors to set the output voltage and provide the minimum

load current for proper regulation.

This regulator is intended for use as a post regulator and

microprocessor supply. The fast loop response and low dropout

voltage make this regulator ideal for applications where low voltage

operation and good transient response are important.

The circuit is designed to operate with dropout voltages as low as

1.0 V at 8.0 A.

The regulator is protected against overload conditions with

overcurrent and thermal shutdown protection circuitry.

The regulator is available in a TO−220 package.
