FS8856
550 mA LDO Linear Regulator
General Description
The FS8856 is a low-dropout linear regulator
that operations in the input voltage range from
+2.5V to +6.5V and delivers 550mA output
current.
The high-accuracy output voltage is preset at an
internally trimmed voltage 2.5V or 3.3V. Other
output voltages can be mask-optioned from
1.5V to 5.0V with 100mV increment, except
FS8856-29Cx which has 2.85V output voltage.
The FS8856 consist of a 1.25V reference
compare amplifier, and a P-channel pass
transistor. Other features include short-circuit
protection and thermal shutdown protection.
The FS8856 devices are available in TO-92 and
SOT-89 packages.

* Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device.
These are stress ratings only, and function operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those
indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
