Description
Features
The EZ1584 is a high performance positive voltage
regulator designed for use in applications requiring low
dropout performance at 7A. Additionally, the EZ1584
series provides excellent regulation over variations in line,
load and temperature.
K Low dropout performance: 1.3V max. for EZ1584C
Outstanding features include low dropout performance
at rated current, fast transient response, internal
current limiting and thermal shutdown protection of the
output device.

The EZ1584 is an excellent choice for powering
microprocessor systems. Using an LDO eliminates
MOSFETs and inductors, saving both space and cost. An
LDO also provides better transient response and no
ripple.

Pin Name
Pin Function
1
ADJUST
This pin is the negative side of the reference voltage for adjustable devices. Transient response
can be improved by adding a small bypass capacitor from the adjust pin to ground.
GROUND
This pin is the bottom end of the internal resistor feedback chain for fixed output voltage parts, and
should be connected to ground.
2
OUTPUT
This is the power output of the device and is electrically connected to the TAB.
3
INPUT
This is the input supply pin for both the control circuitry and the pass device.
