High Efficiency Regulator Controller
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
Complete Control for a High Current,
Low Dropout, Linear Regulator
•
Fixed 5V or Adjustable Output Voltage
•
Accurate 2.5A Current Limiting with
Foldback
•
Internal Current Sense Resistor
The UC1835/6 families of linear controllers are optimized for the design of low cost, low dropout, linear regulators. Using an external pass
element, dropout voltages of less than 0.5V are readily obtained.
These devices contain a high gain error amplifier, a 250mA output
driver, and a precision reference. In addition, current sense with foldback provides for a 2.5A peak output current dropping to less than
0.5A at short circuit.

These devices are available in fixed, 5V, (UC1835), or adjustable,
(UC1836), versions. In the fixed 5 volt version, the only external parts
required are an external pass element, an output capacitor, and a compensation capacitor. On the adjustable version the output voltage can
be set anywhere from 2.5V to 35V with two external resistors.
Additional features of these devices include under-voltage lockout for
predictable start-up, thermal shutdown and short circuit current limiting
to protect the driver device. On the fixed voltage version, a reverse
voltage comparator minimizes reverse load current in the event of a
negative input to output differential.
