					DESCRIPTION  
					ORDERING INFORMATION  
					The EZ158X family of high performance positive  
					voltage regulators are designed for use in applications  
					requiring very low dropout voltage at 7, 5, 3 and 1.5  
					amps. When supplying 2.5V on motherboards where  
					both 5V and 3.3V supplies are available, the superior  
					dropout characteristics of the EZ158X result in reduced  
					heat dissipation compared to regular LDOs, thus  
					allowing heat sink size reduction. Additionally, the  
					EZ158X provides excellent regulation over variations in  
					line, load and temperature. Remote sense operation  
					allows compensating for trace, connector and other  
					resistive losses.

					Outstanding features include very low dropout  
					performance at rated current, fast transient response,  
					remote sense, internal current limiting, thermal  
					shutdown and safe operating area protection of the  
					output device. The EZ158X is a five terminal  
					adjustable voltage regulator available in the popular 5  
					pin TO-220 and TO-263 plastic packages.
