AS7806ATF-E1

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Overview

The AS7806ATF-E1 is a linear voltage regulator manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, belonging to the AS78xx series. It provides a fixed positive output voltage of 6V with a maximum output current capability of 1A. The device utilizes a TO-220-3 (TO-220F) through-hole package for thermal management and circuit integration. It operates within an ambient temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. Key electrical characteristics include a typical dropout voltage of 2V at full load and a line regulation of 0.075%. The component integrates internal protection mechanisms such as thermal shutdown and short-circuit current limiting.
