Dual Input Ultra Low Dropout
Voltage Regulator (ULDO)

L1581 Series
TO-252
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The L1581 is a positive and very low
dropout voltage regulator with 5A output
current capability. When supplying 2.5V or
2.8V on Motherboards or VGA Card where
both 5V and 3.3V supplies are available,
the superior dropout characteristics of the
L1581 result in reduced heat dissipation
compared to regular LDOs, thus allowing
heat sink reduction. The adjustable version
requires only two external resistors to set
the output. The L1581 features a low
dropout of less than 600mV and offers fast
transient response, remote sense, internal
limiting, thermal shutdown and safe
operating area protection of the output
device.
The L1581 is a five terminal adjustable
voltage regulator available in the popular 5
pin TO-252 packages.

NOTES :
(1) If the same voltage is input to both INPUT and CONTROL, then the dropout voltage will become 1.3V
maximum.
(2) A small (~0.033uF) capacitor can be used to bypass the ADJUST pin to improve transient response, if needed.
(3) Capacitor values are for reference only. Good quality, low ESR tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors
should be used. Increasing the value of the output capacitor will improve the overall transient response.

DESCRIPTION
This pin is the positive side of the reference voltage for the device. With
this pin it is possible to Kelvin sense the output voltage at the load.
This pin is the negative side of the reference voltage for the device.
Transient response can be improved by adding a small bypass capacitor
from the adjust pin to ground.
This is the power output of the device, and is electrically connected to
the TAB.
This pin is the supply pin for the control circuitry for the device. The
current flow into this pin will be approximately 1% of the output. For the
device to regulate, the voltage at this pin must be between 1.0V and
1.3V greater than the output voltage (see dropout specifications).
This is the collector input to the power device of the L1581. The output
load current is supplied through this pin. For the device to regulate, the
voltage on this pin must be between 0.1V and 0.7V greater than the
output, depending upon load current (see dropout specifications).
