Product details
Overview
AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 from Diodes Incorporated is a fixed-output 2.5V, 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 embedded systems where post-regulation of switching supplies demands high current and low noise.
For engineers reviewing the AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 datasheet, AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 pinout, AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 application, or AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 5A, thermal resistance (θJA = 100°C/W), load regulation (≤15 mV), PSRR (72 dB at 120 Hz), and compatibility with standard TO-252 footprint layouts.
Technical Context
The AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 integrates a trimmed band-gap reference and current-limiting circuit to maintain precise 2.5V output under varying line and load conditions. Its internal thermal shutdown activates when junction temperature exceeds +150°C, protecting against sustained overload or ambient overheating.
Designed for fixed-output operation, it eliminates external feedback resistors-unlike the adjustable AZ1084-ADJ variant-and achieves 0.1% typical load regulation and 0.5 mV typical line regulation across its 4.0–7.0V input range. The device operates without minimum load requirement in most configurations but specifies 3 mA minimum load current at 125°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.5V ±1% (guaranteed over 0–125°C TJ, enabling direct replacement of legacy 2.5V LDOs) |
| Output Current | 5A continuous (supports high-current FPGA core rails or SoC power domains) |
| Dropout Voltage | 1.3V typical at 5A (allows operation from 3.8V input, critical for battery-powered 5V-to-2.5V conversion) |
| Load Regulation | ≤15 mV (0–5A load step, ensures <0.6% output deviation during processor burst loads) |
| PSRR | 72 dB at 120 Hz (suppresses ripple from upstream buck converters feeding this LDO) |
| Thermal Resistance θJA | 100°C/W (TO-252-2 (3), dictates heatsink-free operation up to ~2.5W dissipation at 25°C ambient) |
| Operating Junction Temp | 0°C to +125°C (validated for industrial-grade embedded controllers and RISC processor supplies) |
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; requires ≥10 µF ceramic input capacitor for stability |
| 2 | OUTPUT | Regulated 2.5V output and thermal pad; must be soldered to large copper pour for thermal performance |
| 3 | ADJ/GND | Ground reference terminal; ties internal band-gap and error amplifier to system ground |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Dropout Voltage | 1.3V typical at 5A enables use with narrow input margins (e.g., 3.3V rail post-buck conversion) |
| Integrated Thermal Protection | Automatic shutdown at +150°C junction temperature prevents permanent damage during sustained overload |
| Fixed 2.5V Output | No external resistors required-reduces BOM count and layout area versus adjustable regulators |
| Lead-Free & Green Packaging | TO-252-2 (3) meets RoHS 2 and halogen/antimony-free "Green" standards (<900 ppm Br/Cl, <1000 ppm Sb) |
| High Ripple Rejection | 72 dB PSRR at 120 Hz suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters |
Applications
| Microprocessor Core Supply | Battery Charger Post-Regulation |
|---|---|

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-2.5TRG1 | 2.5V, 600mA max, 300mV dropout at 600mA, SOT-23-5 package | Lower current capacity limits use to low-power MCU I/O rails-not suitable for 5A loads | Select only for space-constrained, sub-1A applications where thermal mass is limited |
| TLV1117-25CDCYR | 2.5V, 800mA max, 1.2V dropout at 800mA, SOT-223 package | Lacks integrated thermal shutdown latch; relies on foldback current limiting only | Prefer where cost sensitivity outweighs need for robust thermal protection in ≤800mA designs |
Compared with AP2112K-2.5TRG1 and TLV1117-25CDCYR, AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 uniquely supports 5A continuous output with guaranteed thermal shutdown and TO-252 thermal performance-making it irreplaceable for high-current, safety-critical linear regulation where alternatives require parallel devices or active cooling.

FAQ
Is AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 still in active production?
No-AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 is officially obsolete per Diodes' DS36598 Rev. 4 (November 2021), marked "PART DISCONTINUED" with migration guidance to AZ1084C variants. Aetrix Electronics maintains limited legacy stock for design continuity and last-time buy support, but no new manufacturing commitments exist.
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for AZ1084D-2.5TRG1?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 12V per Absolute Maximum Ratings. However, recommended operation limits input to 7.0V for the 2.5V version to ensure safe power dissipation and thermal margin-exceeding this risks exceeding 100°C/W θJA limits and triggering thermal shutdown under full 5A load.
Can AZ1084D-2.5TRG1 be used without an input capacitor?
No-datasheet Figure 10 specifies a minimum 10 µF ceramic input capacitor (X5R/X7R) placed within 5 mm of pins 1 and 3. Omission causes instability, oscillation, or failure to regulate due to insufficient high-frequency bypassing of input ripple and trace inductance.
How does the ADJ/GND pin function in the fixed-output AZ1084D-2.5TRG1?
In fixed-output versions like AZ1084D-2.5TRG1, pin 3 (ADJ/GND) serves solely as the ground reference for the internal band-gap and error amplifier-it is not adjustable. It must be connected directly to system ground with low-impedance routing; floating or RC-filtering this pin degrades regulation accuracy and transient response.
