The LT ® 1312 is a member of Linear Technology
Corporation’s family of PCMCIA drivers/regulators. The
LT1312 provides 0V, 3.3V, 5V, 12V and Hi-Z regulated
power to the VPP pin of a PCMCIA card slot from a single
unregulated 13V to 20V supply. When used in conjunction
with a PC card interface controller, the LT1312 forms a
complete minimum component-count interface for palmtop, pen-based and notebook computers. The VPP output
voltage is selected by two logic compatible digital inputs
which interface directly with industry standard PC card
interface controllers.
Automatic 3.3V to 5V switching is provided by an internal
comparator which continuously monitors the PC card VCC
supply and automatically adjusts the regulated VPP output to match VCC when the VPP = VCC mode is selected.

An open-collector VPP VALID output is driven low when
VPP is in regulation at 12V.
The LT1312 is available in an 8-pin SO package.

PIN FUNCTIONS
Supply Pin: Power is supplied to the device through the
supply pin. The supply pin should be bypassed to ground
if the device is more than 6 inches away from the main
supply capacitor. A bypass capacitor in the range of 0.1µF
to 1µF is sufficient. The supply voltage to the LT1312 can
be loosely regulated between 13V and 20V. See Applications Information section for more detail.
VPPOUT Pin: This regulated output supplies power to the
PCMCIA card VPP pins which are typically tied together
at the card socket. The VPPOUT output is current limited
to approximately 330mA. Thermal shutdown provides a
second level of protection. A 1µF to 10µF tantalum output
capacitor is recommended. See Applications Information section for more detail on output capacitor considerations.
Input Enable Pins: The two digital input pins are high
impedance inputs with approximately 20µA input current
at 2.4V. The input thresholds are compatible with CMOS
controllers and can be driven from either 5V or 3.3V
CMOS logic. ESD protection diodes limit input excursions
to 0.6V below ground.
VALID Output Pin: This pin is an open-collector NPN
output which is driven low when the VPPOUT pin is in
regulation, i.e., when it is above 11V. An external 51k pullup resistor is connected between this output and the same
5V or 3.3V logic supply powering the PCMCIA compatible
control logic.
VCC Sense Pin: A built-in comparator and 4V reference
automatically switches the VPPOUT from 5V to 3.3V depending upon the voltage sensed at the PCMCIA card
socket VCC pin. The input current for this pin is approximately 30µA. For 5V only operation, connect the Sense pin
directly to ground. An ESD protection diode limits the
input voltage to 0.6V below ground.

OPERATION
The LT1312 is a programmable output voltage, lowdropout linear regulator designed specifically for PCMCIA
VPP drive applications. Input power is typically obtained
from a loosely regulated input supply between 13V and
20V (see Applications Information section for more detail
on the input power supply). The LT1312 consists of the
following blocks:
Low Dropout Voltage Linear Regulator: The heart of the
LT1312 is a PNP-based low-dropout voltage regulator
which drops the unregulated supply voltage from 13V to
20V down to 12V, 5V, 3.3V, 0V or Hi-Z depending upon the
state of the two Enable inputs and the VCC Sense input. The
regulator has built-in current limiting and thermal shutdown to protect the device, the load, and the socket
against inadvertent short circuiting to ground.
Voltage Control Logic: The LT1312 has five possible
output modes: 0V, 3.3V, 5V, 12V and Hi-Z. These five
modes are selected by the two Enable inputs and the VCC
Sense input as described by the Truth Table.
VCC Sense Comparator: When the VCC mode is selected,
the LT1312 automatically adjusts the regulated VPP output voltage to 3.3V or 5V depending upon the voltage
present at the PC card VCC supply pin. The threshold
voltage for the comparator is set at 4V and there is
approximately 50mV of hysteresis provided to ensure
clean switching between 3.3V and 5V.
VPP VALID Comparator: A voltage comparator monitors
the output voltage when the 12V mode is selected and is
driven low when the output is in regulation above 11V.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LT1312 is a voltage programmable linear regulator
designed specifically for PCMCIA VPP driver applications.
The device operates with very low quiescent current
(30µA) in the 0V and Hi-Z modes of operation. In the Hi-Z
mode, the output leakage current falls to 1µA. Unloaded
quiescent current rises to only 55µA and 75µA when
programmed to 3.3V and 5V respectively. In addition to
the low quiescent currents, the LT1312 incorporates several protection features which make it ideal for PCMCIA
applications. The LT1312 has built-in current limiting
(330mA) and thermal shutdown to protect the device and
the socket VPP pins against inadvertent short-circuit
conditions.
an auxiliary winding to the 5V inductor in a split 3.3V/5V
LTC1142HV power supply system. A turns ratio of 1:1.8 is
used for transformer T1 to ensure that the input voltage to
the LT1312 falls between 13V and 20V under all load
conditions. The 9V output from this additional winding is
rectified by diode D2, added to the main 5V output and
applied to the input of the LT1312. (Note that the auxiliary
winding must be phased properly as shown in Figure 1.)
AUXILIARY WINDING POWER SUPPLIES
When the 12V output is activated by a TTL high on the
Enable line, the 5V section of the LTC1142HV is forced into
continuous mode operation. A resistor divider composed
of R2, R3 and switch Q3 forces an offset which is subtracted from the internal offset at the Sense – input (pin 14)
of the LTC1142HV. When this external offset cancels the
built-in 25mV offset, Burst ModeTM operation is inhibited
and the LTC1142HV is forced into continuous mode
operation. (See the LTC1142HV data sheet for further
detail). In this mode, the 14V auxiliary supply can be
Because the LT1312 provides excellent output regulation,
the input power supply may be loosely regulated. One
convenient (and economic) source of power is an auxiliary
winding on the main 5V switching regulator inductor in the
main system power supply.
LTC®1142HV Auxiliary Winding Power Supply
Figure 1 is a schematic diagram which describes how a
loosely regulated 14V power supply is created by adding
6
The auxiliary winding is referenced to the 5V output which
provides DC current feedback from the auxiliary supply to
the main 5V section. The AC transient response is improved by returning the negative lead of C5 to the 5V
output as shown.

Continuous mode operation is only invoked when the
LT1312 is programmed to 12V. If the LT1312 is programmed to 0V, 3.3V or 5V, power is obtained directly
from the main power source (battery pack) through diode
D1. Again, the LT1312 output can be loaded without
