DESCRIPTION:

The MSK 5232 series voltage regulators are available in +1.5V, +1.7V, +1.8V, +1.9V, +2.5V, +3.3V, +5.0V,

and +12.0V output configurations. All boast ultra low dropout specifications due to the utilization of a super PNP

output pass transistor with monolithic technology. Dropout voltages of 350mV at 3 amps are typical in this configu-

ration, which drives efficiency up and power dissipation down. Accuracy is guaranteed with a 1% maximum output

voltage tolerance. The case of the MSK5232 series is electrically isolated for heat sinking purposes. The MSK5232

series is packaged in a space efficient 3 pin power package that is available lead formed for surface mount

applications. The device is also available in a power package with a top tab to accomodate direct mounting to a heat

sink.
