NCP565 1.5 A Low Dropout Linear Regulator

The NCP565 low dropout linear regulator will provide 1.5 A at a fixed output voltage or an adjustable voltage down to 0.9 V. The fast loop response and low dropout voltage make this regulator ideal for applications where low voltage and good load transient response are important. Device protection includes current limit, short circuit protection, and thermal shutdown. The NCP565 is packaged in a 5 pin D²PAK for adjustable voltage version and a 3 pin D²PAK for fixed voltage version.

MAXIMUM RATINGS

Maximum ratings are those values beyond which device damage can occur. Maximum ratings applied to the device are individual stress limit values (not normal operating conditions) and are not valid simultaneously. If these limits are exceeded, device functional operation is not implied, damage may occur and reliability may be affected.

1. This device series contains ESD protection and exceeds the following tests:

    Human Body Model JESD 22−A114−B

    Machine Model JESD 22−A115−A

2. The maximum package power dissipation is: P_D=(T_J(max)-T_A) / R_θJA
