The MCP1755/MCP1755S is a family of CMOS LowDropout (LDO) voltage regulators that can deliver up to
300 mA of current while consuming only 68.0 µA of
quiescent current (typical). The input operating range is
specified from 3.6V to 16.0V, making it an ideal choice for
four to six primary cell battery-powered applications, 12V
mobile applications and one to three-cell Li-Ion-powered
applications.

The MCP1755/MCP1755S is capable of delivering
300 mA with only 300 mV (typical) of input-to-output
voltage differential. The output voltage tolerance of the
MCP1755 is typically +0.85% at +25°C and ±2.0%
maximum over the operating junction temperature
range of -40°C to +125°C. Line regulation is ±0.01%
typical at +25°C.
Output voltages available for the MCP1755/MCP1755S
range from 1.8V to 5.5V. The LDO output is stable when
using only 1 µF of output capacitance. Ceramic,
tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors may all be
used for input and output. Overcurrent limit and
overtemperature shutdown provide a robust solution for
any application.
The MCP1755/MCP1755S family has a true current
foldback feature. When the load impedance decreases
beyond the MCP1755/MCP1755S load rating, the
output current and voltage will gracefully fold back
towards 30 mA at about 0V output. When the load
impedance increases and returns to the rated load, the
MCP1755/MCP1755S will follow the same foldback
curve as the device comes out of the current foldback.
Package options for the MCP1755 include the
SOT-23-5, SOT-223-5 and 8-lead 2 x 3 DFN.
Package options for the MCP1755S device include the
SOT-223-3 and 8-lead 2 x 3 DFN.

The minimum VIN must meet two conditions: VIN 3.6V and VIN VR + VDROPOUT(MAX).
VR is the nominal regulator output voltage when the input voltage, VIN = VRated + VDROPOUT(MAX) or VIN = 3.6V
(whichever is greater); IOUT = 1 mA.
TCVOUT = (VOUT-HIGH – VOUT-LOW) x 106/(VR x Temperature), VOUT-HIGH = highest voltage measured over the
temperature range. VOUT-LOW = lowest voltage measured over the temperature range.
Load regulation is measured at a constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Changes in
output voltage due to heating effects are determined using thermal regulation specification, TCVOUT.
Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below the output voltage value that was measured with an applied input voltage of VIN = VR + 1V or VIN = 3.6V
(whichever is greater).
The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of Ambient Temperature, the maximum allowable
Junction Temperature and the thermal resistance from Junction to Air (i.e., TA, TJ, JA). Exceeding the
maximum allowable power dissipation will cause the device operating junction temperature to exceed the
maximum +150°C rating. Sustained junction temperatures above +150°C can impact device reliability.
The junction temperature is approximated by soaking the device under test at an ambient temperature equal to
the desired junction temperature. The test time is small enough such that the rise in the junction
temperature over the ambient temperature is not significant.

3.1
Regulated Output Voltage (VOUT)
Connect VOUT to the positive side of the load and the
positive side of the output capacitor. The positive side
of the output capacitor should be physically located as
close to the LDO VOUT pin as is practical. The current
flowing out of this pin is equal to the DC load current.
3.2
Power Good Output (PWRGD)
The PWRGD output is an open-drain output used to
indicate when the LDO output voltage is within 92%
(typically) of its nominal regulation value. The PWRGD
threshold has a typical hysteresis value of 2%. The
PWRGD output is delayed by 100 µs (typical) from the
time the LDO output is within 92% + 3% (maximum
hysteresis) of the regulated output value on power-up.
This delay time is internally fixed. The PWRGD pin may
be pulled up to VIN or VOUT. Pulling up to VOUT
conserves power when the device is in Shutdown
(SHDN = 0V) mode.
3.3
Ground Terminal (GND)
Regulator ground. Tie GND to the negative side of the
output capacitor and also to the negative side of the
input capacitor. Only the LDO bias current flows out of
this pin; there is no high current. The LDO output
regulation is referenced to this pin. Minimize voltage
drops between this pin and the negative side of the
load.
3.4
3.5
Unregulated Input Voltage (VIN)
Connect VIN to the input unregulated source voltage.
Like all low dropout linear regulators, low source
impedance is necessary for the stable operation of the
LDO. The amount of capacitance required to ensure
low source impedance will depend on the proximity of
the input source capacitors or battery type. For most
applications, 1 µF of capacitance will ensure stable
operation of the LDO circuit. The input capacitor should
have a capacitance value equal to or larger than the
output capacitor for performance applications. The
input capacitor will supply the load current during
transients and improve performance. For applications
that have load currents below 10 mA, the input
capacitance requirement can be lowered. The type of
capacitor used may be ceramic, tantalum or aluminum
electrolytic. The low-ESR characteristics of the ceramic
will yield better noise and PSRR performance at high
frequency.
3.6
Exposed Pad (EP)
Some of the packages have an exposed metal pad on
the bottom of the package. The exposed metal pad
gives the device better thermal characteristics by
providing a good thermal path to either the PCB or heat
sink to remove heat from the device. The exposed pad
of the package is internally connected to GND.
Shutdown Input (SHDN)
The SHDN input is used to turn the LDO output voltage
on and off. When the SHDN input is at a logic high
level, the LDO output voltage is enabled. When the
SHDN input is pulled to a logic low level, the LDO
output voltage is disabled. When the SHDN input is
pulled low, the PWRGD output also goes low and the
LDO enters a low quiescent current shutdown state.

DEVICE OVERVIEW
4.3
The MCP1755/MCP1755S is a 300 mA output current,
Low-Dropout (LDO) voltage regulator. The low-dropout
voltage of 300 mV typical at 300 mA of current makes
it ideal for battery-powered applications. The input
voltage range is 3.6V to 16.0V. Unlike other high output
current LDOs, the MCP1755/MCP1755S typically
draws only 300 µA of quiescent current for a 300 mA
load. The MCP1755 adds a shutdown control input pin
and a power good output pin. The output voltage
options are fixed.
4.1
LDO Output Voltage
The MCP1755 LDO has a fixed output voltage. The
output voltage range is 1.8V to 5.5V. The MCP1755S
LDO is available as a fixed voltage device.
4.2
Output Current and
Current Limiting
The MCP1755/MCP1755S LDO is tested and ensured to
supply a minimum of 300 mA of output current. The
MCP1755/MCP1755S has no minimum output load, so
the output load current can go to 0 mA and the LDO will
continue to regulate the output voltage to within tolerance.
The MCP1755/MCP1755S also incorporates a true
output current foldback. If the output load presents an
excessive load due to a low-impedance short-circuit
condition, the output current and voltage will fold back
towards 30 mA and 0V, respectively. The output
voltage and current will resume normal levels when the
excessive load is removed. If the overload condition is
a soft overload, the MCP1755/MCP1755S will supply
higher load currents of up to typically 350 mA. This
allows for device usage in applications that have
pulsed load currents having an average output current
value of 300 mA or less.
Output overload conditions may also result in an
overtemperature shutdown of the device. If the junction
temperature rises above +150°C (typical), the LDO will
shut down the output. See Section 4.8, Overtemperature Protection for more information on overtemperature
shutdown.
6.0
Output Capacitor
The MCP1755/MCP1755S requires a minimum output
capacitance of 1 µF for output voltage stability. Ceramic
capacitors are recommended because of their size,
cost and environmental robustness qualities.
Aluminum-electrolytic and tantalum capacitors can be
used on the LDO output as well. The Equivalent Series
Resistance (ESR) of the electrolytic output capacitor
should be no greater than 2ohms. The output capacitor
should be located as close to the LDO output as is
practical. Ceramic materials, X7R and X5R, have lowtemperature coefficients and are well within the
acceptable ESR range required. A typical 1 µF
X7R 0805 capacitor has an ESR of 50 milliohms.
Larger LDO output capacitors can be used with the
MCP1755/MCP1755S to improve dynamic performance
and power supply ripple rejection performance. A maximum of 1000 µF is recommended. Aluminum-electrolytic
capacitors are not recommended for low temperature
applications of < -25°C.
4.4
Input Capacitor
Low input source impedance is necessary for the LDO
output to operate properly. When operating from
batteries, or in applications with long lead length
(> 10 inches) between the input source and the LDO,
some input capacitance is recommended. A minimum
of 1.0 µF to 4.7 µF is recommended for most
applications.
For applications that have output step load
requirements, the input capacitance of the LDO is very
important. The input capacitance provides the LDO
with a good local low-impedance source to pull the
transient currents from, in order to respond quickly to
the output load step. For good step response performance, the input capacitor should be of equivalent or
higher value than the output capacitor. The capacitor
should be placed as close to the input of the LDO as is
practical. Larger input capacitors will also help reduce
any high-frequency noise on the input and output of the
LDO, and reduce the effects of any inductance that
exists between the input source voltage and the input
capacitance of the LDO.

4.5
Power Good Output (PWRGD)
The open-drain PWRGD output is used to indicate when
the output voltage of the LDO is within 92% (typical
value, see Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for
Minimum and Maximum specifications) of its nominal
regulation value.
As the output voltage of the LDO rises, the open-drain
PWRGD output will actively be held low until the output
voltage has exceeded the power good threshold plus
the hysteresis value. Once this threshold has been
exceeded, the power good time delay is started (shown
as TPG in the AC/DC Characteristics table). The
power good time delay is fixed at 100 µs (typical). After
the time delay period, the PWRGD open-drain output
becomes inactive and may be pulled high by an external pull-up resistor, indicating that the output voltage is
stable and within regulation limits. The power good
output is typically pulled up to VIN or VOUT. Pulling the
signal up to VOUT conserves power during Shutdown
mode.
If the output voltage of the LDO falls below the power
good threshold, the power good output will transition
low. The power good circuitry has a 200 µs delay when
detecting a falling output voltage, which helps to
increase noise immunity of the power good output and
avoid false triggering of the power good output during
fast output transients. See Figure 4-2 for power good
timing characteristics.
When the LDO is put into Shutdown mode using the
SHDN input, the power good output is pulled low
immediately, indicating that the output voltage will be
out of regulation. The timing diagram for the power
good output when using the shutdown input is shown in
Figure 4-3.
The power good output is an open-drain output that can
be pulled up to any voltage that is equal to or less than
the LDO input voltage. This output is capable of sinking
a minimum of 5 mA (VPWRGD < 0.45V).

Power Good Timing from
Shutdown Input (SHDN)
The SHDN input is an active-low input signal that turns
the LDO on and off. The SHDN threshold is a fixed
voltage level. The minimum value of this shutdown
threshold required to turn the output on is 2.4V. The
maximum value required to turn the output off is 0.8V.
The SHDN input will ignore low going pulses (pulses
meant to shut down the LDO) that are up to 400 ns in
pulse width. If the shutdown input is pulled low for more
than 400 ns, the LDO will enter Shutdown mode. This
small bit of filtering helps to reject any system noise
spikes on the shutdown input signal.
On the rising edge of the SHDN input, the shutdown
circuitry has a 135 µs delay before allowing the LDO
output to turn on. This delay helps to reject any false
turn-on signals or noise on the SHDN input signal. After
the 135 µs delay, the LDO output enters its soft start
period as it rises from 0V to its final regulation value. If
the SHDN input signal is pulled low during the 135 µs
delay period, the timer will be reset and the delay time
will start over again on the next rising edge of the
SHDN input. The total time from the SHDN input going
high (turn-on) to the LDO output being in regulation is
typically 235 µs. See Figure 4-4 for a timing diagram of
the SHDN input.

For high-current applications, voltage drops across the
PCB traces must be taken into account. The trace
resistances can cause significant voltage drops
between the input voltage source and the LDO. For
applications with input voltages near 3.0V, these PCB
trace voltage drops can sometimes lower the input
voltage enough to trigger a shutdown due to
undervoltage lockout.

Dropout Voltage and Undervoltage
Lockout
Dropout voltage is defined as the input-to-output
voltage differential at which the output voltage drops
2% below the nominal value that was measured with a
VR + 1.0V differential applied. The MCP1755/
MCP1755S LDO has a very Low-Dropout voltage
specification of 300 mV (typical) at 300 mA of output
current. See Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics”
for maximum dropout voltage specifications.
Overtemperature Protection
The MCP1755/MCP1755S LDO has temperature
sensing circuitry to prevent the junction temperature
from exceeding approximately +150°C. If the LDO
junction temperature does reach +150°C, the LDO
output will be turned off until the junction temperature
cools to approximately +140°C, at which point, the
LDO output will automatically resume normal
operation. If the internal power dissipation continues to
be excessive, the device will again shut off. The
junction temperature of the die is a function of power
dissipation, ambient temperature and package thermal
resistance. See Section 5.0 “Application Circuits
and Issues” for more information on LDO power
dissipation and junction temperature.
The MCP1755/MCP1755S LDO operates across an
input voltage range of 3.6V to 16.0V and incorporates
input Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) circuitry that keeps
the LDO output voltage off until the input voltage
reaches a minimum of 3.00V (typical) on the rising
edge of the input voltage. As the input voltage falls, the
LDO output will remain on until the input voltage level
reaches 2.70V (typical).

The maximum continuous operating junction
temperature specified for the MCP1755/MCP1755S is
+150°C. To estimate the internal junction temperature
of the MCP1755/MCP1755S, the total internal power
dissipation is multiplied by the thermal Resistance from
Junction to Ambient (RJA). The thermal resistance
from junction to ambient for the SOT-223 package is
estimated at 62°C/W.
POWER DISSIPATION
The internal power dissipation of the MCP1755/
MCP1755S is a function of input voltage, output
voltage and output current. The power dissipation, as
a result of the quiescent current draw, is so low, it is
insignificant (68.0 µA x VIN). The following equation
can be used to calculate the internal power dissipation
of the LDO.

PLDO = V IN MAX – V OUT MIN I OUT MAX
PLDO = LDO pass device internal power
dissipation
VIN(MAX) = Maximum input voltage
VOUT(MIN) = LDO minimum output voltage
PTOTAL = Total device power dissipation
RJA = Thermal resistance from junction

TAMAX = Maximum ambient temperature
The maximum power dissipation capability for a
package can be calculated given the junction-toambient thermal resistance and the maximum ambient
temperature for the application. The following equation
can be used to determine the package maximum
internal power dissipation.

Internal power dissipation, junction temperature rise,
junction temperature and maximum power dissipation
are calculated in the following example. The power
dissipation, as a result of ground current, is small
enough to be neglected.

Internal Power dissipation is the product of the LDO
output current times the voltage across the LDO
(VIN to VOUT).
PLDO(MAX) = (VIN(MAX) – VOUT(MIN)) x IOUT(MAX)
PLDO = (4.8V – (0.98 x 1.8V)) x 50 mA
PLDO = 151.8 mW

DEVICE JUNCTION
TEMPERATURE RISE
The internal junction temperature rise is a function of
internal power dissipation and the thermal resistance
from junction to ambient for the application. The
Thermal Resistance from Junction to Ambient (RJA) is
derived from an EIA/JEDEC standard for measuring
thermal resistance for small surface-mount packages.
The EIA/JEDEC specification is JESD51-7, “High
Effective Thermal Conductivity Test Board for Leaded
Surface Mount Packages”. The standard describes the
test method and board specifications for measuring the
thermal resistance from junction to ambient. The actual
thermal resistance for a particular application can vary
depending on many factors, such as copper area and
thickness. Refer to AN792, “A Method to Determine
How Much Power a SOT-23 Can Dissipate in an
Application” (DS00792), for more information regarding
this subject.

JUNCTION TEMPERATURE
ESTIMATE
To estimate the internal junction temperature, the
calculated temperature rise is added to the ambient or
offset temperature. For this example, the worst-case
junction temperature is estimated below.

Voltage Reference
The MCP1755/MCP1755S can be used not only as a
regulator, but also as a low quiescent current voltage
reference. In many microcontroller applications, the initial
accuracy of the reference can be calibrated using
production test equipment or by using a ratio
measurement. When the initial accuracy is calibrated, the
thermal stability and line regulation tolerance are the only
errors introduced by the MCP1755/MCP1755S LDO.
The low-cost, low quiescent current and small ceramic
output capacitor are all advantages when using the
MCP1755/MCP1755S as a voltage reference.

Pulsed Load Applications
For some applications, there are pulsed load current
events that may exceed the specified 300 mA
maximum specification of the MCP1755/MCP1755S.
The internal current limit of the MCP1755/MCP1755S
will prevent high peak load demands from causing nonrecoverable damage. The 300 mA rating is a maximum
average continuous rating. As long as the average
current does not exceed 300 mA, higher pulsed load
currents can be applied to the MCP1755/MCP1755S.
The typical foldback current limit for the MCP1755/
MCP1755S is 350 mA (TA = +25°C).
