2 A adjustable LDO in a TSSOP-EP — what the ratings mean
The MAX8526EUD+T is a single-output positive adjustable LDO from Analog Devices / Maxim, rated for a continuous 2 A output with a maximum dropout voltage of 0.2 V at that full load. Input voltage tops out at 3.6 V. Quiescent current sits at 440 µA. Enable control and over-temperature / short-circuit protection are on-chip. The 14-TSSOP exposed-pad package (0.173" body, 4.40 mm width) needs a thermal land on the PCB to dissipate the 2 A heat load; the exposed pad is the primary thermal path.
The supplier device package code is 14-TSSOP-EP; the footprint matches standard TSSOP-14 with an additional center pad. Cut Tape and Tape & Reel options are listed — both ship the same device, just different reel quantities for prototyping versus production.
ROHS3 compliant.
