All internal circuitry is designed to operate down to 1V input-to-output differential and the dropout voltage is fully specified as a function of load current. Dropout is guaranteed at several operating points up to a maximum of 1.5V at maximum output current. Dropout decreases at lower load currents. On-chip trimming adjusts the reference/ouput voltage to 1%. Current limit is also trimmed, minimizing the stress on both the regulator and power source circuitry under overload conditions. The LT1086 is pin compatible with older 3-terminal adjustable regulators. A minimum 10µF output capacitor is required on these devices. The LT1086 offers excellent line and load regulation specifications and ripple rejection exceeds 75dB even at the maximum load current of 1.5A. The LT1086 is floating architecture with a composite NPN output stage. All of the quiescent current and the drive current for the output stage flows to the load increasing efficiency. The LT1086 is available in a 3-pin TO-220 package and a space-saving surface mountable 3-pin DD package. , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.

They are short-circuit protected and have safe area protection as well as thermal shutdown to turn off the regulator should the temperature exceed about 165°C at the sense point. These regulators are pin compatible with older 3-terminal adjustable devices, offer lower dropout voltage and more precise reference tolerance. Further, the reference stability with temperature is improved over older types of regulators. The only circuit difference between using the LT1086 family and older regulators is that they require an output capacitor for stability. Stability The circuit design used in the LT1086 family requires the use of an output capacitor as part of the device frequency compensation. For all operating conditions, the addition of 150µF aluminum electrolytic or a 22µF solid tantalum on the output will ensure stability. Normally capacitors much smaller than this can be used with the LT1086. Many different types of capacitors with widely varying characteristics are available. These capacitors differ in capacitor tolerance (sometimes ranging up to ±100%), equivalent series resistance, and capacitance temperature coefficient. The 150µF or 22µF values given will ensure stability. When using the LT1086 the adjustment terminal can be bypassed to improve ripple rejection. When the adjustment terminal is bypassed the requirement for an output capacitor increases. The values of 22µF tantalum or 150µF aluminum cover all cases of bypassing the adjustment terminal. For fixed voltage devices or adjustable devices without an adjust pin bypass capacitor, smaller output capacitors can be used with equally good results. The table below shows approximately what size capacitors are needed to ensure stability. Recommended Capacitor Values INPUT 10µF 10µF OUTPUT 10µF Tantalum, 50µF Aluminum 22µF Tantalum, 150µF Aluminum ADJUSTMENT None 20µF Normally, capacitor values on the order of 100µF are used in the output of many regulators to ensure good transient 8 U W U U response with heavy load current changes. Output capacitance can be increased without limit and larger values of output capacitor further improve stability and transient response of the LT1086 regulators. Another possible stability problem that can occur in monolithic IC regulators is current limit oscillations. These can occur because in current limit, the safe area protection exhibits a negative impedance. The safe area protection decreases the current limit as the input-to-output voltage increases.That is the equivalent of having a negitive resistance since increasing voltage causes current to decrease. Negative resistance during current limit is not unique to the LT1086 series and has been present on all power IC regulators. The value of negative resistance is a function of how fast the current limit is folded back as input-to-output voltage increases. This negative resistance can react with capacitors or inductors on the input to cause oscillation during current limiting. Depending on the value of series resistance, the overall circuitry may end up unstable. Since this is a system problem, it is not necessarily easy to solve; however, it does not cause any problems with the IC regulator and can usually be ignored. Protection Diodes In normal operation the LT1086 family does not need any protection diodes. Older adjustable regulators required protection diodes between the adjustment pin and the output and from the output to the input to prevent overstressing the die. The internal current paths on the LT1086 adjustment pin are limited by internal resistors. Therefore, even with capacitors on the adjustment pin, no protection diode is needed to ensure device safety under short-circuit conditions. Diodes between input and output are usually not needed. The internal diode between the input and the output pins of the LT1086 family can handle microsecond surge currents of 10A to 20A. Even with large output capacitances, it is very difficult to get those values of surge currents in normal operation. Only with high value output capacitors such as 1000µF to 5000µF, and with the input pin instantaneously shorted to ground, can damage occur. A crowbar circuit at the input of the LT1086 can generate those kinds of currents and a diode from output to input is then recommended. Normal power supply cycling or even sn1086 1086ffs LT1086 Series APPLICATIONS INFORMATION plugging and unplugging in the system will not generate current large enough to do any damage. The adjustment pin can be driven on a transient basis ± 25V, with respect to the output without any device degradation. Of course as with any IC regulator, exceeding the maximum input-to-output voltage differential causes the internal transistors to break down and none of the protection circuitry is functional. D1 1N4002 (OPTIONAL) VIN IN LT1086 ADJ OUT R1 + VOUT COUT 150µF + CADJ 10µF R2 LT1086 • AI01 Overload Recovery Like any of the IC power regulators, the LT1086 has safe area protection. The safe area protection decreases the current limit as input-to-output voltage increases and keeps the power transistor inside a safe operating region for all values of input-to-output voltage. The LT1086 protection is designed to provide some output current at all values of input-to-output voltage up to the device breakdown. When power is first turned on, as the input voltage rises, the output follows the input, allowing the regulator to start up into very heavy loads. During the start-up, as the input voltage is rising, the input-to-output voltage differential remains small, allowing the regulator to supply large output currents. With high input voltage, a problem can occur wherein removal of an output short will not allow the output voltage to recover. Older regulators such as the 7800 series also exhibited this phenomenon, so it is not unique to the LT1086. The problem occurs with a heavy output load when the input voltage is high and the output voltage is low, such as immediately after a removal of a short. The load line for such a load may intersect the output current curve at two points. If this happens there are two stable output operating points for the regulator. With this double intersection U W U U the power supply may need to be cycled down to zero and brought up again to make the output recover. Ripple Rejection For the LT1086 the typical curves for ripple rejection reflect values for a bypassed adjust pin. This curve will be true for all values of output voltage. For proper bypassing and ripple rejection approaching the values shown, the impedance of the adjust pin capacitor at the ripple frequency should equal the value of R1, (normally 100Ω to 120Ω). The size of the required adjust pin capacitor is a function of the input ripple frequency. At 120Hz the adjust pin capacitor should be 13µF if R1 = 100Ω; at 10kHz only 0.16µF is needed. For circuits without an adjust pin bypass capacitor the ripple rejection will be a function of output voltage. The output ripple will increase directly as a ratio of the output voltage to the reference voltage (VOUT/VREF). For example, with the output voltage equal to 5V and no adjust pin capacitor, the output ripple will be higher by the ratio of 5V/1.25V or four times larger. Ripple rejection will be degraded by 12dB from the value shown on the LT1086 curve. Typical curves are provided for the 5V and 12V devices since the adjust pin is not available. Output Voltage The LT1086 develops a 1.25V reference voltage between the output and the adjust terminal (see Figure 1). By placing resistor R1 between these two terminals, a constant current is caused to flow through R1 and down through R2 to set the overall output voltage. Normally this current is chosen to be the specified minimum load current of 10mA. Because IADJ is very small and constant when compared with the current through R1, it represents a small error and can usually be ignored. For fixed voltage devices R1 and R2 are included in the device. VIN IN LT1086 ADJ IADJ 50µA VOUT = VREF 1 + R2 R1 OUT VREF R1 VOUT 10µF TANTALUM + ( ) R2 + IADJ R2 1086 • F01 Figure 1. Basic Adjustable Regulator sn1086 1086ffs 9 LT1086 Series APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Load Regulation Because the LT1086 is a 3-terminal device, it is not possible to provide true remote load sensing. Load regulation will be limited by the resistance of the wire connecting the regulator to the load. The data sheet specification for load regulation is measured at the bottom of the package. Negative side sensing is a true Kelvin connection, with the bottom of the output divider returned to the negative side of the load. Although it may not be immediately obvious, best load regulation is obtained when the top of the resistor divider R1 is connected directly to the case not to the load, as illustrated in Figure 2. If R1 were connected to the load, the effective resistance between the regulator and the load would be: RP R2 + R1 , RP = Parasitic Line Resistance R1 RP PARASITIC LINE RESISTANCE VIN IN LT1086 ADJ R1* RL R2* OUT ( ) *CONNECT R1 TO CASE CONNECT R2 TO LOAD 1086 • F02 Figure 2. Connections for Best Load Regulation Connected as shown, RP is not multiplied by the divider ratio. RP is about 0.004Ω per foot using 16-gauge wire. This translates to 4mV/ft at 1A load current, so it is important to keep the positive lead between regulator and load as short as possible and use large wire or PC board traces. Note that the resistance of the package leads for the H package ≈ 0.06Ω/inch. While it is usually not possible to connect the load directly to the package, it is possible to connect larger wire or PC traces close to the case to avoid voltage drops that will degrade load regulation. For fixed voltage devices the top of R1 is internally Kelvin connected and the ground pin can be used for negative side sensing. 10 U W U U Thermal Considerations The LT1086 series of regulators have internal power and thermal limiting circuitry designed to protect the device under overload conditions. For continuous normal load conditions however, maximum junction temperature ratings must not be exceeded. It is important to give careful consideration to all sources of thermal resistance from junction to ambient. This includes junction-to-case, caseto-heat sink interface and heat sink resistance itself. New thermal resistance specifications have been developed to more accurately reflect device temperature and ensure safe operating temperatures. The data section for these new regulators provides a separate thermal resistance and maximum junction temperature for both the Control Section and the Power Transistor. Previous regulators, with a single junction-to-case thermal resistance specification, used an average of the two values provided here and therefore could allow excessive junction temperatures under certain conditions of ambient temperature and heat sink resistance. To avoid this possibility, calculations should be made for both sections to ensure that both thermal limits are met. For example, using a LT1086CK (TO-3, Commercial) and assuming: VIN(max continuous) = 9V, VOUT = 5V, IOUT = 1A, TA = 75°C, θHEAT SINK = 3°C/W, θCASE-TO-HEAT SINK = 0.2°C/ W for T package with thermal compound. Power dissipation under these conditions is equal to: PD = (VIN – VOUT)(IOUT) = 4W Junction temperature will be equal to: TJ = TA + PD (θHEAT SINK + θ CASE-TO-HEAT SINK + θJC) For the Control Section: TJ = 75°C + 4W(3°C/W + 0.2°C/ W + 1.5°C/ W) = 94.6°C 95°C < 125°C = TJMAX (Control Section Commercial Range) For the Power Transistor: TJ = 75°C + 4W(3°C/ W + 0.2°C/ W + 4°C/ W) = 103.8°C 103.8°C < 150°C = TJMAX (Power Transistor Commercial Range) sn1086 1086ffs LT1086 Series APPLICATIONS INFORMATION In both cases the junction temperature is below the maximum rating for the respective sections, ensuring reliable operation. Junction-to-case thermal resistance for the K and T packages is specified from the IC junction to the bottom of the case directly below the die. This is the lowest resistance path for heat flow. While this is also the lowest resistance path for the H package, most available heat sinks for this package are of the clip-on type that attach to the cap of the package. The data sheet specification for thermal resistance for the H package is therefore written to reflect this. In all cases proper mounting is required to ensure the best possible heat flow from the die to the heat sink. Thermal compound at the case-to-heat sink interface is strongly recommended. In the case of the H package, mounting the device so that heat can flow out the bottom of the case will significantly lower thermal resistance (≈ a factor of 2). If the case of the device must be electrically isolated, a thermally conductive spacer can be used as long as its added contribution to thermal resistance is considered. Note that the case of all devices in this series is electrically connected to the output.
