LT3012B 250mA, 4V to 80V Low Dropout Micropower Linear Regulator FEATURES ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ DESCRIPTIO Wide Input Voltage Range: 4V to 80V Low Quiescent Current: 40µA Low Dropout Voltage: 400mV Output Current: 250mA No Protection Diodes Needed Adjustable Output from 1.24V to 60V Stable with 3.3µF Output Capacitor Stable with Aluminum, Tantalum or Ceramic Capacitors Reverse-Battery Protection No Reverse Current Flow from Output to Input Thermal Limiting Thermally Enhanced 16-Lead TSSOP and 12-Pin (4mm × 3mm) DFN Packages The LT®3012B is a high voltage, micropower low dropout linear regulator. The device is capable of supplying 250mA of output current with a dropout voltage of 400mV. Designed for use in battery-powered or high voltage systems, the low quiescent current (40µA operating) makes the LT3012B an ideal choice. Quiescent current is also well controlled in dropout. Other features of the LT3012B include the ability to operate with very small output capacitors. The regulators are stable with only 3.3µF on the output while most older devices require between 10µF and 100µF for stability. Small ceramic capacitors can be used without any need for series resistance (ESR) as is common with other regulators. Internal protection circuitry includes reverse-battery protection, current limiting, thermal limiting and reverse current protection. The device is available with an adjustable output with a 1.24V reference voltage. The LT3012B regulator is available in the 16-lead TSSOP and 12 pin low profile (0.75mm) (4mm × 3mm) DFN packages with an exposed pad for enhanced thermal handling capability. , LTC and LT are registered trademarks of Linear Technology Corporation.

Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime. Note 2: The LT3012B is tested and specified for these conditions with the ADJ pin connected to the OUT pin. Note 3: Operating conditions are limited by maximum junction temperature. The regulated output voltage specification will not apply for all possible combinations of input voltage and output current. When operating at maximum input voltage, the output current range must be limited. When operating at maximum output current, the input voltage range must be limited. Note 4: To satisfy requirements for minimum input voltage, the LT3012B is tested and specified for these conditions with an external resistor divider (249k bottom, 549k top) for an output voltage of 4V. The external resistor divider will add a 5µA DC load on the output. Note 5: Dropout voltage is the minimum input to output voltage differential needed to maintain regulation at a specified output current. In dropout, the output voltage will be equal to (VIN – VDROPOUT). Note 6: GND pin current is tested with VIN = 4.5V and a current source load. This means the device is tested while operating close to its dropout region. This is the worst-case GND pin current. The GND pin current will decrease slightly at higher input voltages. Note 7: ADJ pin bias current flows into the ADJ pin. Note 8: Reverse output current is tested with the IN pin grounded and the OUT pin forced to the rated output voltage. This current flows into the OUT pin and out the GND pin. Note 9: The LT3012BE is guaranteed to meet performance specifications from 0°C to 125°C operating junction temperature. Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. Note 10: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active. Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction temperature may impair device reliability. 3012bf 3 LT3012B TYPICAL PERFOR A CE CHARACTERISTICS Typical Dropout Voltage 600 500 DROPOUT VOLTAGE (mV) TJ = 125°C GUARANTEED DROPOUT VOLTAGE (mV) DROPOUT VOLTAGE (mV) 400 300 200 100 0 TJ = 25°C 0 50 100 150 200 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) Quiescent Current 100 VIN = 6V 90 RL = ∞ I =0 80 L 70 60 50 ADJ PIN VOLTAGE (V) QUIESCENT CURRENT (µA) 1.250 1.245 1.240 1.235 1.230 1.225 QUIESCENT CURRENT (µA) 40 30 20 10 0 – 50 – 25 0 50 75 25 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 GND Pin Current 1.2 1.0 TJ = 25°C *FOR VOUT = 1.24V GND PIN CURRENT (mA) GND PIN CURRENT (mA) 0.8 0.6 0.4 0.2 0 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 GND PIN CURRENT (mA) RL = 49.6Ω IL = 25mA* RL = 124Ω IL = 10mA* RL = 1.24k IL = 1mA* 0 1 2 34567 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 4 UW 3012B G01 3012B G04 Guaranteed Dropout Voltage 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 = TEST POINTS TJ ≤ 125°C Dropout Voltage 600 500 400 300 IL = 50mA 200 IL = 10mA 100 0 –50 –25 IL = 1mA 50 25 0 75 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 IL = 250mA IL = 100mA TJ ≤ 25°C 250 0 50 150 100 200 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) 250 301B2 G02 3012B G03 ADJ Pin Voltage 1.260 1.255 IL = 1mA 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 50 75 25 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 0 Quiescent Current TJ = 25°C RL = ∞ VOUT = 1.24V 1.220 – 50 – 25 0 1 2 34567 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 8 9 10 3012B G05 3012B G06 GND Pin Current 10 9 8 RL = 4.96Ω IL = 250mA* TJ = 25°C, *FOR VOUT = 1.24V 10 GND Pin Current vs ILOAD VIN = 4.5V 9 TJ = 25°C = 1.24V V 8 OUT 7 6 5 4 3 2 RL = 12.4Ω IL = 100mA* RL = 24.8Ω, IL = 50mA* 0 1 2 34567 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 8 9 10 1 0 0 50 100 150 200 LOAD CURRENT (mA) 250 3012B G09 8 9 10 0 3012B G07 3012B G08 3012bf LT3012B TYPICAL PERFOR A CE CHARACTERISTICS ADJ Pin Bias Current 50 45 ADJ PIN BIAS CURRENT (nA) 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 – 50 – 25 0 50 75 25 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 CURRENT LIMIT (mA) 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 0 10 20 TJ = 125°C CURRENT LIMIT (mA) Reverse Output Current 200 REVERSE OUTPUT CURRENT (µA) REVERSE OUTPUT CURRENT (µA) TJ = 25°C 180 VIN = 0V VOUT = VADJ 160 140 120 100 CURRENT FLOWS 80 INTO OUTPUT PIN 60 40 20 0 0 1 2 345678 OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) 9 10 ADJ PIN CLAMP (SEE APPLICATIONS INFORMATION) 25 20 15 10 5 0 – 50 – 25 RIPPLE REJECTION (dB) Input Ripple Rejection 100 VIN = 4.5V + 50mVRMS RIPPLE 90 ILOAD = 250mA MINIMUM INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 4.0 3.5 3.0 2.5 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 80 RIPPLE REJECTION (dB) 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 10 100 1k 10k FREQUENCY (Hz) 100k 1M 3012B G19 UW 3012B G13 3012B G16 Current Limit 1000 900 800 TJ = 25°C VOUT = 0V Current Limit 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 VIN = 7V VOUT = 0V 50 25 0 75 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 30 40 50 60 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 70 80 0 –50 –25 3012B G14 3012B G15 Reverse Output Current 35 30 VIN = 0V VOUT = VADJ = 1.24V 92 88 84 80 76 72 68 64 Input Ripple Rejection VIN = 4.5V + 0.5VP-P RIPPLE AT f = 120Hz IL = 250mA VOUT = 1.24V 50 25 0 75 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 0 75 50 25 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 60 –50 –25 3012B G17 3012B G18 Minimum Input Voltage ILOAD = 250mA COUT = 10µF COUT = 3.3µF 0 – 50 – 25 0 50 75 25 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 3012B G20 3012bf 5 LT3012B TYPICAL PERFOR A CE CHARACTERISTICS Output Noise Spectral Density OUTPUT NOISE SPECTRAL DENSITY (µV/√Hz) 10 COUT = 3.3µF ILOAD = 250mA LOAD REGULATION (mV) 1 0.1 0.01 10 100 1k 10k FREQUENCY (Hz) 100k 3012B G22 10Hz to 100kHz Output Noise 0.15 OUTPUT VOLTAGE DEVIATION (V) VOUT 100µV/DIV LOAD CURRENT (mA) COUT = 10µF IL = 250mA VOUT = 1.24V 6 UW Load Regulation 0 –2 –4 –6 –8 –10 –12 –14 –16 –18 –20 – 50 – 25 0 75 50 25 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 ∆IL = 1mA TO 250mA 3012B G21 Transient Response 0.10 0.05 0 –0.05 –0.10 –0.15 300 200 100 0 0 100 300 200 TIME (µs) 400 500 3012B G24 VIN = 6V VOUT = 5V CIN = 3.3µF CERAMIC COUT = 3.3µF CERAMIC ∆ILOAD = 100mA TO 200mA 1ms/DIV 3012B G23 3012bf LT3012B PI FU CTIO S OUT (Pins 2, 3)/(Pins 3, 4): Output. The output supplies power to the load. A minimum output capacitor of 3.3µF is required to prevent oscillations. Larger output capacitors will be required for applications with large transient loads to limit peak voltage transients. See the Applications Information section for more information on output capacitance and reverse output characteristics. ADJ (Pin 4)/(Pin 5): Adjust. This is the input to the error amplifier. This pin is internally clamped to ±7V. It has a bias current of 30nA which flows into the pin (see curve of ADJ Pin Bias Current vs Temperature in the Typical Performance Characteristics). The ADJ pin voltage is 1.24V referenced to ground, and the output voltage range is 1.24V to 60V. GND (Pins 5, 13)/(Pins 1, 6, 8, 9, 16, 17): Ground. The exposed backside of the package is an electrical connection for GND. As such, to ensure optimum device operation and thermal performance, the exposed pad must be connected directly to pin 5/pin 6 on the PC board. U U U (DFN Package)/(TSSOP Package) IN (Pins 10, 11)/(Pins 13,14): Input. Power is supplied to the device through the IN pin. A bypass capacitor is required on this pin if the device is more than six inches away from the main input filter capacitor. In general, the output impedance of a battery rises with frequency, so it is advisable to include a bypass capacitor in batterypowered circuits. A bypass capacitor in the range of 1µF to 10µF is sufficient. The LT3012B is designed to withstand reverse voltages on the IN pin with respect to ground and the OUT pin. In the case of a reversed input, which can happen if a battery is plugged in backwards, the LT3012B will act as if there is a diode in series with its input. There will be no reverse current flow into the LT3012B and no reverse voltage will appear at the load. The device will protect both itself and the load. NC (Pins 1, 6-9, 12)/(Pins 2, 7, 10-12, 15): No Connect. No Connect pins may be floated, tied to IN or tied to GND. 3012bf 7 LT3012B APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO The LT3012B is a 250mA high voltage low dropout regulator with micropower quiescent current. The device is capable of supplying 250mA at a dropout voltage of 400mV. Operating quiescent current is only 40µA. In addition to the low quiescent current, the LT3012B incorporates several protection features which make it ideal for use in battery-powered systems. The device is protected against both reverse input and reverse output voltages. In battery backup applications where the output can be held up by a backup battery when the input is pulled to ground, the LT3012B acts like it has a diode in series with its output and prevents reverse current flow. Adjustable Operation The LT3012B has an output voltage range of 1.24V to 60V. The output voltage is set by the ratio of two external resistors as shown in Figure 1. The device servos the output to maintain the voltage at the adjust pin at 1.24V referenced to ground. The current in R1 is then equal to 1.24V/R1 and the current in R2 is the current in R1 plus the ADJ pin bias current. The ADJ pin bias current, 30nA at 25°C, flows through R2 into the ADJ pin. The output voltage can be calculated using the formula in Figure 1. The value of R1 should be less than 250k to minimize errors in the output voltage caused by the ADJ pin bias current. The adjustable device is tested and specified with the ADJ pin tied to the OUT pin and a 5µA DC load (unless otherwise specified) for an output voltage of 1.24V. Specifications for output voltages greater than 1.24V will be proportional VIN VOUT = 1.24V 1 + R2 + (IADJ)(R2) R1 VADJ = 1.24V IADJ = 30nA AT 25°C OUTPUT RANGE = 1.24V TO 60V Figure 1. Adjustable Operation 8 U to the ratio of the desired output voltage to 1.24V; (VOUT/ 1.24V). For example, load regulation for an output current change of 1mA to 250mA is –7mV typical at VOUT = 1.24V. At VOUT = 12V, load regulation is: (12V/1.24V) • (–7mV) = –68mV Output Capacitance and Transient Response The LT3012B is designed to be stable with a wide range of output capacitors. The ESR of the output capacitor affects stability, most notably with small capacitors. A minimum output capacitor of 3.3µF with an ESR of 3Ω or less is recommended to prevent oscillations. The LT3012B is a micropower device and output transient response will be a function of output capacitance. Larger values of output capacitance decrease the peak deviations and provide improved transient response for larger load current changes. Bypass capacitors, used to decouple individual components powered by the LT3012B, will increase the effective output capacitor value. Extra consideration must be given to the use of ceramic capacitors. Ceramic capacitors are manufactured with a variety of dielectrics, each with different behavior across temperature and applied voltage. The most common dielectrics used are specified with EIA temperature characteristic codes of Z5U, Y5V, X5R and X7R. The Z5U and Y5V dielectrics are good for providing high capacitances in a small package, but they tend to have strong voltage and temperature coefficients as shown in Figures 2 and 3. When used with a 5V regulator, a 16V 10µF Y5V capacitor IN OUT R2 R1 C1 LT3012B ADJ GND 3012B F01 W UU + VOUT () 3012bf LT3012B APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO can exhibit an effective value as low as 1µF to 2µF for the DC bias voltage applied and over the operating temperature range. The X5R and X7R dielectrics result in more stable characteristics and are more suitable for use as the output capacitor. The X7R type has better stability across temperature, while the X5R is less expensive and is available in higher values. Care still must be exercised when using X5R and X7R capacitors; the X5R and X7R codes only specify operating temperature range and maximum capacitance change over temperature. Capacitance change due to DC bias with X5R and X7R capacitors is better than Y5V and Z5U capacitors, but can still be significant enough to drop capacitor values below appropriate levels. Capacitor DC bias characteristics tend to improve as component case size increases, but expected capacitance at operating voltage should be verified. Voltage and temperature coefficients are not the only sources of problems. Some ceramic capacitors have a piezoelectric response. A piezoelectric device generates voltage across its terminals due to mechanical stress, similar to the way a piezoelectric accelerometer or microphone works. For a ceramic capacitor the stress can be induced by vibrations in the system or thermal transients. Current Limit and Safe Operating Area Protection Like many IC power regulators, the LT3012B has safe operating area protection.

Ceramic Capacitor DC Bias Characterics U ing region. The protection is designed to provide some output current at all values of input voltage up to the device breakdown (see curve of Current Limit vs Input Voltage in the Typical Performance Characteristics). The LT3012B is limited for operating conditions by maximum junction temperature. While operating at maximum input voltage, the output current range must be limited; when operating at maximum output current, the input voltage range must be limited. Device specifications will not apply for all possible combinations of input voltage and output current. Operating the LT3012B beyond the maximum junction temperature rating may impair the life of the device. Thermal Considerations The power handling capability of the device will be limited by the maximum rated junction temperature (125°C). The power dissipated by the device will be made up of two components: 1. Output current multiplied by the input/output voltage differential: IOUT • (VIN – VOUT) and, 2. GND pin current multiplied by the input voltage: IGND • VIN. The GND pin current can be found by examining the GND Pin Current curves in the Typical Performance Characteristics. Power dissipation will be equal to the sum of the two components listed above. 40 20 0 X5R –20 –40 –60 –80 Y5V BOTH CAPACITORS ARE 16V, 1210 CASE SIZE, 10µF –100 50 25 75 –50 –25 0 TEMPERATURE (°C) 100 125 3012B F03 W UU Figure 3. Ceramic Capacitor Temperature Characterics 3012bf 9 LT3012B APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO The LT3012B has internal thermal limiting designed to protect the device during overload conditions. For continuous normal conditions the maximum junction temperature rating of 125°C must not be exceeded. It is important to give careful consideration to all sources of thermal resistance from junction to ambient. Additional heat sources mounted nearby must also be considered. For surface mount devices, heat sinking is accomplished by using the heat spreading capabilities of the PC board and its copper traces. Copper board stiffeners and plated through-holes can also be used to spread the heat generated by power devices. The following tables list thermal resistance for several different board sizes and copper areas. All measurements were taken in still air on 3/32" FR-4 board with one ounce copper. Table 1.

Transient operation at high input/ output differentials is possible. The approximate thermal time constant for a 2500sq mm 3/32" FR-4 board with maximum topside and backside area for one ounce copper is 3 seconds. This time constant will increase as more thermal mass is added (i.e. vias, larger board, and other components). For an application with transient high power peaks, average power dissipation can be used for junction temperature calculations as long as the pulse period is significantly less than the thermal time constant of the device and board. Calculating Junction Temperature Example 1: Given an output voltage of 5V, an input voltage range of 24V to 30V, an output current range of 0mA to 50mA, and a maximum ambient temperature of 50°C, what will the maximum junction temperature be? The power dissipated by the device will be equal to: IOUT(MAX) • (VIN(MAX) – VOUT) + (IGND • VIN(MAX)) where: IOUT(MAX) = 50mA VIN(MAX) = 30V IGND at (IOUT = 50mA, VIN = 30V) = 1mA So: P = 50mA • (30V – 5V) + (1mA • 30V) = 1.28W The thermal resistance will be in the range of 40°C/W to 62°C/W depending on the copper area. So the junction temperature rise above ambient will be approximately equal to: 1.31W • 50°C/W = 65.5°C 3012bf W UU LT3012B APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO The maximum junction temperature will then be equal to the maximum junction temperature rise above ambient plus the maximum ambient temperature or: TJMAX = 50°C + 65.5°C = 115.5°C Example 2: Given an output voltage of 5V, an input voltage of 48V that rises to 72V for 5ms(max) out of every 100ms, and a 5mA load that steps to 50mA for 50ms out of every 250ms, what is the junction temperature rise above ambient? Using a 500ms period (well under the time constant of the board), power dissipation is as follows: P1(48V in, 5mA load) = 5mA • (48V – 5V) + (200µA • 48V) = 0.23W P2(48V in, 50mA load) = 50mA • (48V – 5V) + (1mA • 48V) = 2.20W P3(72V in, 5mA load) = 5mA • (72V – 5V) + (200µA • 72V) = 0.35W P4(72V in, 50mA load) = 50mA • (72V – 5V) + (1mA • 72V) = 3.42W Operation at the different power levels is as follows: 76% operation at P1, 19% for P2, 4% for P3, and 1% for P4. PEFF = 76%(0.23W) + 19%(2.20W) + 4%(0.35W) + 1%(3.42W) = 0.64W With a thermal resistance in the range of 40°C/W to 62°C/W, this translates to a junction temperature rise above ambient of 26°C to 38°C. U Protection Features The LT3012B incorporates several protection features which make it ideal for use in battery-powered circuits. In addition to the normal protection features associated with monolithic regulators, such as current limiting and thermal limiting, the device is protected against reverse-input voltages, and reverse voltages from output to input. Current limit protection and thermal overload protection are intended to protect the device against current overload conditions at the output of the device. For normal operation, the junction temperature should not exceed 125°C. The input of the device will withstand reverse voltages of 80V. No negative voltage will appear at the output. The device will protect both itself and the load. This provides protection against batteries which can be plugged in backward. The ADJ pin of the device can be pulled above or below ground by as much as 7V without damaging the device. If the input is left open circuit or grounded, the ADJ pin will act like an open circuit when pulled below ground, and like a large resistor (typically 100k) in series with a diode when pulled above ground. If the input is powered by a voltage source, pulling the ADJ pin below the reference voltage will cause the device to current limit. This will cause the output to go to a unregulated high voltage. Pulling the ADJ pin above the reference voltage will turn off all output current. 3012bf W UU 11 LT3012B APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO In situations where the ADJ pin is connected to a resistor divider that would pull the ADJ pin above its 7V clamp voltage if the output is pulled high, the ADJ pin input current must be limited to less than 5mA. For example, a resistor divider is used to provide a regulated 1.5V output from the 1.24V reference when the output is forced to 60V. The top resistor of the resistor divider must be chosen to limit the current into the ADJ pin to less than 5mA when the ADJ pin is at 7V. The 53V difference between the OUT and ADJ pins divided by the 5mA maximum current into the ADJ pin yields a minimum top resistor value of 10.6k. In circuits where a backup battery is required, several different input/output conditions can occur. The output voltage may be held up while the input is either pulled to 200 TJ = 25°C 180 VIN = 0V VOUT = VADJ 160 140 120 100 CURRENT FLOWS 80 INTO OUTPUT PIN 60 40 20 0 0 1 2 REVERSE OUTPUT CURRENT (µA) Figure 4. Reverse Output Current 12 U ground, pulled to some intermediate voltage, or is left open circuit. Current flow back into the output will follow the curve shown in Figure 4. The rise in reverse output current above 7V occurs from the breakdown of the 7V clamp on the ADJ pin. With a resistor divider on the regulator output, this current will be reduced depending on the size of the resistor divider. When the IN pin of the LT3012B is forced below the OUT pin or the OUT pin is pulled above the IN pin, input current will typically drop to less than 2µA. This can happen if the input of the LT3012B is connected to a discharged (low voltage) battery and the output is held up by either a backup battery or a second regulator circuit.
