The LT3080-1 is capable of supplying a wide output voltage range. A reference current through a single resistor programs the output voltage to any level between zero and 36V. The LT3080-1 is stable with 2.2F of ceramic capacitance on the output, not requiring additional ESR as is common with other regulators. Internal protection includes current limiting and thermal limiting. The LT3080-1 regulator is offered in the 8lead MSOP (with an Exposed Pad for better thermal characteristics) and 3mm x 3mm DFN packages.
