Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer documentation for the EZ1587CT-3.3T to confirm current availability status, as some sources indicate this part may be obsolete. Ensure compatibility with existing thermal designs due to the TO-220-3 package requirements. Cross-reference official Semtech datasheets for any updated pinout or electrical specifications before finalizing procurement decisions.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 3.3V output with 3A capacity is required in a TO-220-3 form factor. Consider the 1.35V dropout voltage when designing input voltage margins. Evaluate thermal constraints associated with the TO-220 package for the specific application environment to ensure adequate heat sinking is provided.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Part Context

This part belongs to the Semtech linear voltage regulator family, specifically designed for fixed output applications. It complements other variants like the EZ1588 series but offers distinct current ratings and package options. The EZ1587CT-3.3T is tailored for scenarios where higher current output is necessary compared to lower-amperage LDOs.

Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the EZ1587CT-3.3 without the tape-and-reel suffix if packaging differs. Verify equivalent current and voltage specifications against alternatives from Semtech or other manufacturers offering similar TO-220-3 LDOs with 3.3V output.
