IRU1015CT

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

The IRU1015CT is a linear voltage regulator integrated circuit manufactured by Infineon Technologies. It provides an adjustable positive output voltage with a maximum continuous current capability of 1.5A. The device is housed in a TO-220AB package, designed for through-hole mounting. As a linear regulator, it regulates voltage by dissipating excess power as heat, requiring appropriate thermal management for stable operation under load.
