nFunctional Block Diagram
nGeneral Description
The AME8815 family of linear regulators feature low
quiescent current (45mA typ.) with low dropout voltage,
making them ideal for battery applications. It is available
in TO-252, SOT-223, TO-263 and TO-220 packages.

Shutdown
Output voltages are set at the factory and trimmed to
1.5% accuracy.
R1
These rugged devices have both Thermal Shutdown,
and Current Fold-back to prevent device failure under the
"Worst" operating conditions.
AMP
The AME8815 is stable with an output capacitance of
4.7mF or greater.
