LT3082 200mA Single Resistor Low Dropout Linear Regulator FEATURESDESCRIPTION n Outputs May Be Paralleled for Higher Output The LT®3082 is a 200mA low dropout linear regulator that Current or Heat Spreading can be paralleled to increase output current or spread heat n Maximum Output Current: 200mA in surface mounted boards. Architected as a precision n Wide Input Voltage Range: 1.2V to 40V current source and voltage follower, this regulator benefi ts n Output Adjustable to 0V many applications requiring high current, adjustability to n Stable with Minimum 2.2μF Ceramic Capacitors zero and no heat sink. The LT3082 withstands reverse n Single Resistor Sets Output Voltage input voltages and reverse output-to-input voltages without n Initial Set Pin Current Accuracy: 1% reverse-current fl ow. n Low Output Noise: 33μVRMS (10Hz to 100kHz) A key feature of the LT3082 is the capability to supply a n Reverse-Battery Protection wide output voltage range.
