AN8085M

The AN8085M is a 5V/3A Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) linear voltage regulator. A linear voltage regulator translates a voltage input (VIN) into a steady regulated output voltage (Vout). This type of linear voltage regulator requires fewer external components than other regulators and can maintain a regulated output over a wide range of loads.

The AN8085M is designed to provide a regulated 5V output and has a wide input voltage range of 4V to 18V. It also has an onboard low-dropout voltage which provides voltage regulation at very low dropout voltages, allowing it to maintain output regulation even when the input voltage is very close to the output voltage. The AN8085M also features an adjustable current protection threshold which limits the current output of the regulator if it is overloaded.

The AN8085M can be used in a variety of applications including automotive, consumer electronics, industrial systems, and power supplies for data centers. It can also be used to drive high current loads such as motors, solenoids, and stepper motors. The AN8085M has an on-chip sense resistor which allows it to precisely adjust its output voltage to maintain a constant output voltage when driving high power loads.

In addition to its linear regulator mode, the AN8085M can also be used in PWM mode. The PWM mode allows the AN8085M to provide a high efficiency and fast response time compared to its linear regulator mode. In this mode, the AN8085M can provide a regulated output up to 3A, making it suitable for applications that require high load currents.

The AN8085M also provides adjustable current protection and over voltage protection. The current protection threshold is adjustable and can be set to protect against overloading of the regulator and the over voltage protection prevents the output voltage from exceeding the preset level. This over voltage protection is especially useful for applications where transient voltage or voltage spikes can occur.

The AN8085M is a versatile and robust regulator that can provide reliable and efficient 5V/3A power for a wide variety of applications. With its PWM control and robust protection features, this regulator can provide reliable performance and long life even in the most challenging environments.
