DESCRIPTION
The LX8582A series ICs are low
dropout three-terminal positive regula-
tors with 8.5A rated output current.
Processor applications such as the
Cyrix
廬
6x86
TM
& 6x86L
TM
, Pentium
廬
Processor and Power PC
TM
applications
requiring fast transient response are
ideally suited for this product family.
The LX8582A series products are
guaranteed to have < 1.3V at 8.5A
and are ideal to provide well-regulated
outputs of 2.5V to 3.6V using a 5V
input supply in the adjustable version,
or an output of 3.3V using a 5V input
supply in the fixed version.
Current limit is trimmed above 8.6A
to ensure adequate output current and
controlled short-circuit current. On-
chip thermal limiting provides protec-
tion against any combination of
overload that would create excessive
junction temperatures.
The LX8582A series ICs are available
in both the through-hole versions of the
industry standard 3-pin TO-220 and TO-
247 power packages.
For use in VRE applications, the
LX1431 Programmable Reference in
conjunction with this family of regula-
tors offers precision output voltage.
See the LX1431 data sheet for informa-
tion on this product.
