Features:
The OM8500 is a low dropout linear regulator designed
specifically for high reliability applications. Housed in ei-
ther a 5 pin through hole or 8 lead surface mount pack-
age, these regulators provide high reliability in military/
defense applications. The low dropout voltage of 1.1V @
3A makes the part particularly useful for applications re-
quiring low noise and higher efficiency.

In order to maintain regulation and stability speci-
fied additional input and output bulk capacitors are
recommended. Capacitors recommended above
should be low ESR tantalums with tolerances of +/-
20% max. Internal to the product are a 4.7uF input
capacitor and a 4.7uF output capacitor in parallel
with a 0.33uF ceramic capacitor.
Shutdown:
The regulator can be shutdown by ap-
plying a voltage >1.6V to pin 4. The regulator will
restart when the SHDN pin is pulled below the shut-
down threshold of 1.0V. If remote shutdown is not
required, pin 4 shold be connected to GND to insure
a safe “off” state.
