TLE 4260/S is a 5V low-drop fixed-voltage regulator in a P-TO220-5-H/S package. The maximum input voltage is 42V (65V/≤400ms). The device can produce an output current of more than 500mA. It is short-circuit-proof and incorporates temperature protection that disables the circuit at unpermissibly high temperatures. Due to the wide temperature range of – 40 to 150 °C, the TLE 4260/S is also suitable for use in automotive applications. The IC regulates an input voltage VI in the range 6 < VI < 35 V to VQnominal = 5.0 V. A reset signal is generated for an output voltage of VQ < 4.75 V. The reset delay can be set externally with a capacitor. If the output current is reduced below 10 mA, the regulator switches internally to standby and the reset generator is turned off. The standby current drops to max. 700 µA.
The TLE 4260 is a fixed 5‑V low‑drop regulator offered in a P‑TO220‑5 package. It features very low quiescent current, short‑circuit proof operation, integrated temperature protection, and reverse‑polarity protection. The device can handle an input voltage up to 42 V (65 V for less than 400 ms) and delivers more than 500 mA of output current.
The datasheet provides pin configurations, absolute maximum ratings, operating ranges, and detailed electrical characteristics. Package outlines for P‑TO220‑5‑1 and P‑TO220‑5‑2 are included, along with typical application and test circuits.
