4A Low Dropout Regulator With Enable: Features General Description

The document describes the G973, a high performance positive voltage regulator with an adjustable output between 0.8V to 1.2V and 330mV dropout at 4A. It has over current and temperature protection, an enable pin, low reverse leakage, and provides a power OK signal. The G973 is available in an 8-pin SOP package and is suitable for applications that require low input voltage and dropout, such as motherboards, peripheral cards, and notebooks.

* Thermal Pad can be connected to VIN 0.8 (R1+R2)
1. VO = Volts, R2<120kΩ is recommended
** Connect Thermal Pad to ground plate will R2
have better thermal performance
2. C1 is not necessary. VO is also stable if C1 = 22pF~150pF
