Fairchild Semiconductor RC1584 7A Adjustable/Fixed Low Dropout Linear Regulator Data Sheet

The RC1584 and RC1584-1.5 are low dropout three-terminal regulators with 7A output current capability. These devices have been optimized for low voltage applications including VTT bus termination, where transient response and minimum input voltage are critical. The RC1584 is ideal for low voltage microprocessor applications requiring a regulated output from 1.5V to 3.6V with an input supply of 5V or less. The RC1584-1.5 offers fixed 1.5V with 7A current capability for GTL+ bus VTT termination. Current limit is trimmed to ensure specified output current and controlled short-circuit current. On-chip thermal limiting provides protection against any combination of overload and ambient temperature that would create excessive junction temperatures. The RC1584 and RC1584-1.5 are available in the industry-standard TO-220, TO-263 and TO-263 center cut power packages.
