SAT8601
Linear Voltage Regulator, 3A & 5A, Ultra- Low- Dropout, (ULDO)
(Preliminary)
FEATURES
Ultra Low Dropout Voltage – 300mV @ 3.0A
Compatible with industry standard OMR9600/IRUH Series
Fixed and Adjustable versions
K-level screening available
Shutdown pin for output control
Thermal Shutdown @ 150 deg. C
Optimized for operation at +3.3Vin or +5Vin
DESCRIPTION
The SAT8601 is a military qualified, ultra low dropout linear regulator designed for high
reliability applications. Assembled in a hermetic MO-078 package, the SAT8601 provides
shutdown control and an ultra low drop out of 300mV @ 3A and 450mV at 5A. It is optimized
for operation at +5V input or +3.3V input. Only one resistor is needed to set-up the output
voltage in the adjustable configuration. The SAT8601 is well suited for low-noise high
efficiency applications. The SAT8601 features fast transient response, which minimizes the size
of required output capacitors. The internal capacitors used in the manufacturing of this device are
in accordance with
MIL-PRF-123
or
MIL-PRF-55365.

Notes:
1. Shutdown pin voltage must be > 2.0V to initiate output inhibit. Pin should be grounded if not used.
2. Voltage dropout is dependent on a minimum input Voltage of +2.9V. Specification applies only to output
voltages of +2.5V or greater. Output Voltages below 2.5V will have a greater minimum dropout
requirement.
3. The SAT8601 is optimized for specific Input Voltage ranges. The –53 will have peak performance at
+3.6V to +2.8V. The –55 will have peak performance at +4.5V to +5.5V. Input voltages outside of this
range can affect short-circuit current and load current capability.
