LM285LPE3-1-2

LM285LPE3-1-2, also known as a Positive Voltage Reference, is a three-terminal integrated circuit that provides a regulated reference voltage with a low output impedance and a wide operating current range. It is part of the Voltage Reference (VR) group of products from Texas Instruments. The LM285LPE3-1-2 was developed to provide a very stable reference voltage of 1.2 volts with a wide operating range of 4.75V to 80V input and 0.8A to 4.0A output current.

The LM285LPE3-1-2 operates with a voltage reference as its driving source which is an independent supply circuitry. This technique allows the reference voltage to remain consistent over a wide range of input and output voltages. The output of the LM285LPE3-1-2 is routed through three metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) stages. These stages create a stable output voltage with very low noise and very low temperature drift. This makes the LM285LPE3-1-2 ideal for applications such as automotive and military designs where a reliable voltage reference is important.

The LM285LPE3-1-2 is designed to operate in three modes. The first mode is the normal mode which outputs a steady voltage of 1.2V. The second mode is the active current limit mode. In this mode the reference voltage is reduced if the output current exceeds the limit that is programmed in. Finally, the third mode is the passive current limit mode. In this mode the voltage is reduced in the same way that is seen in the active current limit mode. However, the reduction is not as steep as in the active current limit mode.

The LM285LPE3-1-2 is designed for a variety of applications including battery charging, tester systems, voltage converters,and many other types of applications that require precise control of the output voltage. It is also suitable for applications that require large amounts of power such as communication and computer systems. With its small size and low output current range it can be used in large and small applications.

In conclusion, the LM285LPE3-1-2 is a voltage reference designed for a variety of applications. It has been designed to provide a stable reference voltage of 1.2V and it has a wide operating current range. It is suitable for both large and small applications and it also has a current limit mode that can prevent over currents. This omponent is a great choice for applications where precise control of the output voltage is required.
