Product details
Overview
AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-output 1.5V, 5A low dropout linear regulator in TO-252-2 (3) package with 1.3V typical dropout at full load, on-chip thermal limiting, and ±1% output voltage accuracy over 0°C to +125°C junction temperature. It delivers stable microprocessor supply rails in desktop PCs and embedded systems where input-to-output differential is constrained.
For engineers reviewing the AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 datasheet, AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 pinout, AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 application, or AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 5A, thermal resistance (θJA = 100°C/W), load regulation (±15mV), and compatibility with standard PCB pad layouts for TO-252-2 (3) packages.
Technical Context
The AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 implements a trimmed band-gap reference and internal current limiting circuit to maintain regulation under overload conditions. Its architecture integrates fixed resistors for 1.5V output, eliminating external feedback components.
Thermal protection activates when junction temperature exceeds +150°C, and the device sustains operation across 0°C to +125°C junction range with 6.5A current limit and 5mA quiescent current. Dropout behavior remains stable up to 1.5V at 5A load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 1.5V ±1% (ensures stable core supply for 1.5V logic domains) |
| Max Output Current | 5A continuous (supports high-current microprocessor I/O rails) |
| Dropout Voltage | 1.3V typical at 5A (enables operation with VIN as low as 2.8V) |
| Load Regulation | ±15mV (0–5A load step; maintains voltage stability during CPU burst loads) |
| Line Regulation | ±1mV (3.0–10V input range; rejects input ripple in post-regulation) |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 100°C/W (TO-252-2 (3); requires minimal copper area for thermal management) |
| Operating Junction Temp | 0°C to +125°C (supports industrial-grade embedded deployment) |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-252-2 (3), surface-mount, lead-free, RoHS-compliant, with exposed thermal pad (pin 2 functions as output and thermal tab).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | INPUT | Unregulated input supply connection; must be decoupled with ≥10µF ceramic capacitor |
| 2 | OUTPUT | Regulated 1.5V output and thermal pad; soldered to large copper pour for heat dissipation |
| 3 | ADJ/GND | Ground reference terminal; connects to system ground plane with low-inductance path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low dropout voltage | 1.3V at 5A enables use with tightly regulated intermediate bus voltages |
| Integrated thermal limiting | Shuts down at +150°C junction temperature to prevent permanent damage |
| Fixed 1.5V output | Eliminates external resistor network, reducing BOM count and layout complexity |
| Lead-free & green packaging | TO-252-2 (3) meets RoHS 2 and halogen/antimony-free "Green" requirements |
| Current limiting | 6.5A foldback protection prevents catastrophic failure during short-circuit events |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AP2112K-1.5TRG1 | Lower max current (600mA), smaller SOT-23-5 package, higher dropout (300mV @ 600mA) | Suitable only for low-power peripherals, not microprocessor cores | Select only for space-constrained, sub-1A applications where thermal budget permits higher dropout |
| TLV1117-15CDCYR | 1A max output, SOIC-8 package, 1.2V dropout @ 1A, ±2% accuracy | Limited to mid-power logic; lacks 5A capability and TO-252 thermal performance | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs current demand and thermal requirements |
Compared with AP2112K-1.5TRG1 and TLV1117-15CDCYR, AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 uniquely supports 5A continuous load in a thermally optimized TO-252-2 (3) package while maintaining 1.5V accuracy within ±1%, making it irreplaceable for high-current embedded processor supplies.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for AZ1084D-1.5TRG1?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 12V per the datasheet's Recommended Operating Conditions table. Operation above 10V is limited to transient spikes only; sustained input above 6V violates the specified 3.0V ≤ VIN ≤ 6V range for 1.5V output versions and risks exceeding safe power dissipation limits in TO-252-2 (3) package.
Does AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 require an external capacitor on the ADJ/GND pin?
No - the ADJ/GND pin (Pin 3) is internally connected to ground for fixed-output variants like AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 and does not require external capacitors. Unlike adjustable versions, no feedback network or compensation capacitor is needed, simplifying design and reducing component count.
Can AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 be used without a heatsink in free-air conditions?
Yes, but only at reduced load. With θJA = 100°C/W and TJ(max) = +150°C, maximum continuous current without heatsink is ~1.25A at 25°C ambient. Full 5A operation requires ≥25 cm² of 2oz copper pour connected to Pin 2 (OUTPUT/tab) to achieve effective thermal spreading and maintain junction temperature within 125°C operating limit.
Is AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 still in active production?
No - the datasheet explicitly states "OBSOLETE – PART DISCONTINUED" and recommends migration to AZ1084C. However, AZ1084D-1.5TRG1 remains available through Aetrix Electronics for legacy program support, with full traceability and documented lifecycle status for industrial and medical OEMs managing long-term production continuity.
