The AP1084 series from Diodes Incorporated is a family of low dropout three-terminal regulators with a dropout of 1.3V at 5A of load current. The AP1084-ADJ/3.3/1.8 variant is a versatile and robust component, designed to offer a stable and reliable power supply in a wide range of electronic applications.

Key Features

• Adjustable Output: This regulator comes with an adjustable output version (AP1084-ADJ), which allows the user to set the output voltage with external resistors from 1.25V to an upper limit determined by the maximum input voltage.
• Fixed Output Options: For applications requiring standard output voltages, the AP1084 is also available in 3.3V and 1.8V fixed output versions, providing convenient solutions without the need for external adjustment components.
• High Efficiency: With a low dropout voltage, the AP1084 series ensures efficient operation, reducing power loss and improving overall system performance.
• Current Limiting: Built-in current limiting protects the device and the load from damage due to overcurrent conditions.
• Thermal Shutdown: The integrated thermal shutdown feature safeguards the regulator from overheating, enhancing the longevity and reliability of both the regulator and the system it is used in.
