The AMS1083 is a three-terminal adjustable or fixed voltage regulator produced by Advanced Monolithic Systems Inc. It is suitable for post-regulators for switching supplies, microprocessor supplies, battery chargers, constant current regulators, notebook/personal computer supplies, portable instrumentation, etc.
The AMS1083 series consists of monolithic low dropout voltage regulators available in both adjustable and fixed voltage versions. These devices are designed to provide up to 8A of output current while operating with a minimum input-to-output differential of 1V. They are offered in TO-220 and TO-263 packages.
| Output Current | 8A |
|---|---|
| Dropout Voltage (Max) | 1.5V |
The device provides an output current of 8A.
No, unlike older regulators, the AMS1083 family does not need any protection diodes between the adjustment pin and the output or from the output to the input.
The devices are offered in 3 lead TO-220 package and 3 lead TO-263 (Plastic DD) packages.
