AQ533 Ultra-Low Dropout 500mA Voltage Regulator Product Specification Revision 1.7 September 13, 2006 General Description The AQ533 is an ultra-low dropout voltage regulator capable of delivering 500 mA to the load. It is adjustable and can set a precise voltage from 1.22V to 12V with two external resistors. The AQ533 meets all specifications down to 1.22V output, unlike CMOS LDO’s which loose performance with outputs below 2.25V. The enable pin provides a remote turn-off for low power consumption. It draws virtually zero current in shutdown mode and implements Sequential, Ratiometric, or Simultaneous sequencing schemes. This also allows for a separate bias connection from the pass transistor in order to achieve ultra low dropout from VIN to VOUT. Reverse current protection blocks current flowing from VOUT to VIN when the AQ533 is disabled. No current flows. To assure accuracy within 1.5% over temperature, the heart of the AQ533 is a selfcorrecting AcuRef™ bandgap reference. On-chip current limit and thermal shutdown with hysteresis protects against any combination of overload and ambient temperature that might cause the junction temperature to exceed safe limits. Applications • Graphic cards • PC motherboards • Cell Phones • DVD video player Features • Low dropout voltage (350mV at 500 mA) • Enable pin implements sequencing • Reverse current protection • Vout tolerance less than 1.5% over • • • • • • temperature Featured in the very small SOT-23 package Stable with low cost 1µF capacitor Low ground current (0.95V + VOUT), Chip bias circuit supply OFF low, ENABLE < 0.25V Adjust input.

AQ533 Electrical Specifications Electrical characteristics are guaranteed over the full temperature range 0ºC 0.95V + VOUT, will insure Ultra-low drop out voltage (350mV@ 500mA) from VIN to VOUT. Or, Enable, tied to Vin will support a low drop out voltage (0.95V). 2. Stability An Enable capacitor is recommended. A 100nF capacitor is a suitable input bypass for almost all applications. A larger capacitor is also suitable depending on the cleanliness of the Enable source. A Vin Capacitor is also recommended. A 1µF capacitor is a bypassing for almost all applications. A larger capacitor is also suitable depending on the cleanliness of the VIN source. The Output capacitor is critical in maintaining regular stability. The AQ533 is stable with an output capacitor greater than 1µF. Any increase of the output capacitor will merely improve the loop stability and the load transient response. Tantalum Capacitors exhibit the best stability over a wide range of loads and are recommended. 3. Output Voltage The AQ533 meets all specifications down to 1.22V output. It does not suffer from performance degradation issues such as experienced with CMOS LDO’s. Drop out voltage will be less than 350 mV at 500 mA load with the ENABLE pin held greater than 0.95V + Vout, The AQ533 develops a 1.22V reference voltage between the adjust pin terminal and ground. This voltage is applied across the resistor R2 to generate a constant current (I2). The current www.acutechnology.com 6 Rev. 1.7 September 13, 2006 Acutechnology Semiconductor Inc. AQ533 from the adjust terminal could introduce error to the output, but since it is very small (0.95V + Vout. This results in a dropout of 350 mV at 500 mA of load current, between Vin and VOUT. This feature is important when the supply voltage is dropping near the output regulated voltage. Furthermore if the voltage dropout is low, the internal power dissipation is also reduced and the thermal requirements of the device are less stringent. www.acutechnology.com 8 Rev. 1.7 September 13, 2006 Acutechnology Semiconductor Inc.
