1.5A LOW DROPOUT VOLTAGE CMOS REGULATOR 
 
 
Description Pin Assignments 
 
The PAM3110 is a 1.5A CMOS LDO regulator that features a low 
quiescent current and low dropout voltages, as well as over 
temperature shutdown. The fixed output voltage of the PAM3110 is 
set at the factory and trimmed to 1.5%. The PAM3110 is stable with 
 
a ceramic output capacitor of 4.7F or higher. 
 
This family of regulators can provide either a stand-alone power 
supply solution or act as a post regulator for switch mode power 
supplies. They are particularly suitable for applications requiring low 
input and output voltages. 
 
PAM3110 is available in SOT-223, TO-252 and TO-263-2L package.
