Description
The FAN1086 and FAN1086-2.5, -2.85, -3.3 and -5 are low
dropout three-terminal regulators with 1.5A output current
capability. These devices ha v e been optimized for lo w v oltage
where transient response and minimum input voltage are
critical. The 2.85V version is designed specifically to be
used in Active Terminators for SCSI bus.
Current limit is trimmed to ensure specified output current
and controlled short-circuit current. On-chip thermal limiting
provides protection against an y combination of o verload and
ambient temperatures that would create excessive junction
temperatures.
Unlike PNP type regulators where up to 10% of the output
current is wasted as quiescent current, the quiescent current
of the FAN1086 flows into the load, increasing efficiency.
The FAN1086 series regulators are available in the industry-
standard SOT-223, TO-263, and TO-252 power packages.

Notes:
1. See thermal regulation specifications for changes in output voltage due to heating effects. Load and line regulation are
measured at a constant junction temperature by low duty cycle pulse testing.
2. Line and load regulation are guaranteed up to the maximum power dissipation. Power dissipation is determined by input/
output differential and the output current. Guaranteed maximum output power will not be available over the full input/output
voltage range.
