Product details
Overview
LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 1.5V fixed-output, 5A low-dropout linear regulator in TO-263 (KTT) package, featuring 1.2V typical dropout at 5A, ±1% output voltage accuracy over load/temperature, and fast transient response for microprocessor core supplies.
For engineers reviewing the LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB datasheet, LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB pinout, LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB application, or LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal performance data, industrial-grade (−40°C to 125°C) operation, and real-world design context for high-current low-voltage regulation.
Technical Context
The LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB integrates a zener-trimmed bandgap reference, current limiting, and thermal shutdown circuitry. Its internal architecture enables stable regulation with only two external capacitors (10µF input/output), and supports operation with input voltages as low as 2.75V above VOUT.
Designed for high-current, low-noise applications, it delivers 72dB ripple rejection at 120Hz with 25µF tantalum output capacitance and exhibits 0.003%/W thermal regulation - critical for thermally varying embedded systems requiring consistent voltage under dynamic load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 1.5V ±1% (ensured across 0–5A load and −40°C to 125°C junction temperature) |
| Max Output Current | 5A continuous (with adequate heatsinking; current limit threshold 5.0–6.6A) |
| Dropout Voltage | 1.2V typical at 5A (enables operation from 2.7V input for 1.5V output) |
| Line Regulation | 0.005% typical (±0.2% max; ensures minimal output shift with input variation) |
| Load Regulation | 0.05% typical (±0.5% max; maintains tight voltage control across full 0–5A range) |
| Ripple Rejection | 72dB at 120Hz (suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters) |
| Quiescent Current | 7–13mA (low no-load power loss; suitable for always-on subsystems) |
Pinout & Package
Package: DDPAK/TO-263 (KTT), 3-pin surface-mount, thermally enhanced with exposed metal tab for PCB heat sinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INPUT (Pin 1) | Input voltage supply terminal | Accepts 2.75V to 13V input; requires ≥10µF ceramic or tantalum input capacitor for stability |
| OUTPUT (Pin 2) | Regulated output voltage terminal | Delivers 1.5V ±1% at up to 5A; connects to load and 10µF output capacitor |
| ADJ/GND (Pin 3) | Ground reference and adjust node (fixed version) | Serves as ground return path; internally connected to feedback divider for 1.5V fixed output |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fast transient response | Stabilizes within microseconds after load step changes - essential for CPU core voltage tracking |
| Thermal shutdown protection | Activates at TJ ≥150°C and auto-recovers upon cooling - prevents permanent damage during overload |
| Current limiting | Holds output current at 5–6.6A during short-circuit or overcurrent - protects both IC and downstream circuitry |
| Industrial temperature range | Guaranteed operation from −40°C to 125°C junction temperature - suitable for automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
| Low RMS output noise | 0.003% of VOUT (10Hz–10kHz) - minimizes jitter in analog-sensitive or clocking circuits powered from this rail |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-dropout linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1585A-1.5#PBF | Pin-compatible but higher 1.5V output tolerance (±2% vs. ±1%), 1.3V dropout at 5A (vs. 1.2V), and no −40°C rating | Commercial-only (0°C to 125°C); not qualified for industrial or automotive ambient conditions | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs precision and temperature range requirements |
| LMS1585ACT-1.5/NOPB | Same electrical specs but TO-220 (NDE) through-hole package; higher θJA (2.7°C/W vs. 0.65°C/W case-to-heatsink) | Requires mechanical mounting and heatsink; less suitable for high-density SMT layouts or automated assembly | Select for prototyping, manual assembly, or legacy board designs with TO-220 footprints |
Compared with LT1585A-1.5#PBF and LMS1585ACT-1.5/NOPB, the LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB offers tighter output accuracy, wider temperature qualification, and superior thermal performance in surface-mount form - making it optimal for production-grade industrial and compute applications demanding reliability and density.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB?
The LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB has an absolute maximum input-to-ground voltage of 13V. Operation beyond this risks permanent damage. For reliable 1.5V output, VIN must remain ≥2.75V above VOUT (i.e., ≥4.25V minimum), with recommended input range of 4.5V to 7V per datasheet characterization.
Does the LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB require external resistors to set output voltage?
No. The LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB is a fixed-output variant with internal resistor divider; no external resistors are needed. The ADJ/GND pin is internally connected to the feedback network and serves solely as the ground reference terminal - unlike adjustable versions such as LMS1585ACS-ADJ/NOPB.
What thermal performance can be expected from the LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB in a standard 4-layer PCB layout?
In a standard 4-layer PCB with 2-in² copper pour under the exposed tab, the LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB achieves ~35°C/W junction-to-ambient. At 5A with 2V dropout (10W dissipation), this yields ~350°C rise - confirming mandatory external heatsinking. With proper 1-in² thermal pad and 2oz copper, θJA drops to ~25°C/W, enabling safe 5A operation below 125°C junction.
Is the LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes. The LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB carries the "/NOPB" suffix indicating Pb-Free (RoHS Exempt) construction per TI's packaging standards. It uses Sn (tin) lead finish and complies with JEDEC MSL Level-3 moisture sensitivity classification for reflow soldering at 245°C peak.
How does the LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB handle short-circuit conditions?
The LMS1585AIS-1.5/NOPB features foldback current limiting and thermal shutdown. Under short-circuit, output current is limited to 5.0–6.6A (typical 6A), reducing power dissipation. If junction temperature exceeds 150°C, thermal shutdown disables the pass element until cooldown - then automatically resumes regulation without latch-up or manual reset.
