What is LM1084?

The LM1084 is a series of low dropout voltage positive regulators with a maximum dropout of 1.5V at 5A of load current. It has the same pin-out as National Semiconductor’s industry standard LM317. The LM1084 is available in an adjustable version, which can set the output voltage with only two external resistors. It is also available in three fixed voltages: 3.3V, 5.0V and 12.0V. The fixed versions intergrate the adjust resistors. The LM1084 circuit includes a zener trimmed bandgap reference, current limiting and thermal shutdown.

The low dropout voltage positive regulator is designed to operate with a very small difference between the input and output voltages, typically less than 0.5 volts. This allows it to provide a stable output voltage even when the input voltage is close to the output voltage.
