Description: The BD10KA5W is a low-saturation regulator with an output voltage precision of ±1%. It also has built-in overcurrent protection that prevents the destruction of the IC, due to output short circuits and a thermal shutdown circuit.
Features:
- Max Output Current : 500mA
- Output Voltage Precision : 1.0V ±1%
- Built-in Overcurrent Protection Circuit
- Built-in Thermal Shutdown Circuit
- Shutdown Switch
- Operating Temperature Range : -40C to +105C

Does anybody have an interesting use for this part that they would like to share?
Dearest (Insert Sparkfun Employee name here),
I would truly appreciate a listing of the output voltage of this regulator listed in the description.
With Thanks,
Josh Franz
Key information would be a great time saver, it can be a pain looking at each page looking for a part that has the critical spec your after.
Example:
Triple Axis Accelerometer Breakout - MMA7361
Could be
MMA7361 - Triple Axis Accelerometer - ±1.5g and ±6g - Analog - 2.2 - 3.6 VDC (3.3V)
Check the datasheet above. The model number is BD10KA5WF. Therefore it’s a 1.0v, as stated above.
Why not go the extra inch and change the title to “1.0v Voltage Regulator”, since the output voltage is kind of a critical parameter.
Put Voltage output: 1.0V AT LEAST in the features, this description is definitively misleading. I guess how many people bought this expecting an adjustable voltage output.
So these are the 1.0 Volt regulators?
Yes, they are. The first two numbers represent the voltage (Eg: 10>1.0V, 12>1.2V, etc).
Note: This comment has been updated after reading a comment by User 11952 (I read the part number incorrectly at first).
There is no ADJ pin on BD10KA5W. You’re talking about BD00KA5W. Thus the original question …
This IS in the SFE Eagle library, under the name BD10KA5WF-E2.
