Ultra low dropout voltage (200 mV typ. @ 1.5 A
load, 40 mV typ. @ 300 mA load)
Very low quiescent current (1 mA typ. @ 1.5 A
load, 1 µA max @ 25 °C in off mode)
Logic-controlled electronic shutdown

The LD39150 is a fast ultra low drop linear
regulator which operates from 2.5 V to 6 V input
supply.
A wide range of output options are available. The
low drop voltage, low noise, and ultra low
quiescent current make it suitable for low voltage
microprocessor and memory applications. The
device is developed on a BiCMOS process which
allows low quiescent current operation
independently of output load current.

Application notes

Application notes
7.1
External capacitors
The LD39150 requires external capacitors for regulator stability. These capacitors must be
selected to meet the requirements of minimum capacitance and equivalent series resistance
(see Figure 15 and Figure 16). The input/output capacitors must be located less than 1cm
from the relative pins and connected directly to the input/output ground pins using traces
which have no other currents flowing through them.
7.2
Input capacitor
An input capacitor whose minimum value is 1 µF is required with the LD39150 (amount of
capacitance can be increased without limit). This capacitor must be located a distance of not
more than 1cm from the input pin of the device and returned to a clean analog ground. Any
good quality ceramic, tantalum or film capacitors can be used for this capacitor.
7.3
Output capacitor
It is possible to use ceramic or tantalum capacitors but the output capacitor must meet the
requirement for minimum amount of capacitance and ESR (equivalent series resistance)
value. A minimum capacitance of 2.2 µF is a good choice to guarantee the stability of the
regulator. Anyway, other CO values can be used according to the (Figure 15 and Figure 16)
showing the allowable ESR range as a function of the output capacitance. This curve
represents the stability region over the full temperature and IO range.
7.4
Thermal note
The output capacitor must maintain its ESR in the stable region over the full operating
temperature range to assure stability. Also, capacitors tolerance and variation with
temperature must be kept in consideration in order to assure the minimum amount of
capacitance at all times.
7.5
Inhibit input operation
The inhibit pin can be used to turn OFF the regulator when pulled down, so drastically
reducing the current consumption down to less than 1 µA. When the inhibit feature is not
used, this pin must be tied to VI to keep the regulator output ON at all times. To assure
proper operation, the signal source used to drive the inhibit pin must be able to swing above
and below the specified thresholds listed in the electrical characteristics section (VIH VIL).
The inhibit pin must not be left floating because it is not internally pulled down/up.
