LOW-DROPOUT REGULATORS — HIGH EFFICIENCY
Designed specifically to meet the requirement for extended operation of battery-powered equipment such as cordless and cellular telephones, the A8405SLH voltage regulators offer the reduced dropout voltage and quiescent current essential for maximum battery life. Applicable also to palmtop computers and personal data assistants, these devices deliver a regulated output at up to 200 mA (transient), which is internally limited, providing short-circuit protection. Regulated output voltages of 2.7, 2.8, 3.0, 3.2, 3.3, 3.6, 3.8, 4.0, and 5.0 V are currently provided. Other voltages, down to 2.0 volts, are available on special order. A PMOS pass element provides a typical dropout voltage of only 100 mV at 100 mA of load current. The low dropout voltage permits deeper battery discharge before output regulation is lost. Quiescent current does not increase significantly as the dropout voltage is approached, an ideal feature in standby/resume power systems where data integrity is crucial. Regulator accuracy and excellent temperature characteristics are provided by a bandgap reference. The A8405SLH includes an ENABLE input to give the designer complete control over power up, standby, or power down. These devices are supplied in a thermally enhanced 5-lead smalloutline plastic package similar to the SOT-23, and fitting the SC-74A footprint. All devices are rated for operation over a temperature range of -20°C to +85°C.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Linear regulators require input and output capacitors in order to maintain over-all loop stability. The recommended minimum value for the input capacitor is 0.1 µF. The output capacitor is the dominant pole that provides the high-frequency compensation required for over-all regulator loop stability. These devices are stable with as little as 1 µF. However, to ensure stable operation under all conditions and capacitor types, the recommended minimum value is 4.7 µF. The output capacitor may be partially distributed through the load circuits. However, at least 1 µF should be connected at the regulator using the shortest and widest foil pattern possible. The A8405SLH-ADJ requires an external voltage divider to set up the desired regulated output voltage between 2.0 V and 6.8 V (VI ≤ 7 V). The two resistors are chosen such that VO = 1.26 (R1 + R2)/R2. The resistor values are usually as high as possible to maintain high circuit efficiency, but R2 should be less than 300 kΩ.

Thermal Considerations These devices are intended to provide more than 150 mA of continuous current in a very small package. The table on page 2 of this data sheet gives the maximum allowable average output current for a worst-case printed circuit design (RθJA = 220°C/W with a minimum footprint). Performance improvement is easily accomplished with the addition of 1 square inch of copper at terminal 2 (RθJA = 170°C/W).
