UC2836DTRG4 Description

The UC2836DTRG4 linear controller is 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. The UC2836DTRG4 contains 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 a short circuit.
