The LTC®1844 Series are low noise VLDOTM (very low dropout) linear regulators designed for low power/portable applications. These regulators can operate from input voltages as low as 1.6V. Typical output noise is only 30µVRMS and typical dropout for the LTC1844-3.3 is just 90mV at the maximum load current of 150mA, reducing to 30mV at 50mA. The internal P-channel MOSFET pass transistor requires no base current, allowing the device to draw only 35µA during normal operation, independent of the dropout voltage and load current. The quiescent current falls to a negligible 10nA during shutdown. Other features include high output voltage accuracy, excellent transient response, stablity with ultralow ESR ceramic capacitors as small as 1µF, reverse-battery and reverse-current protection, short-circuit and thermal overload protection and output current limiting. The LTC1844 regulators are available in a low profile (1mm) SOT-23 (ThinSOTTM) package.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life of a device may be impaired. Note 2: The LTC1844 is tested and specified under pulse load conditions such that TJ ≈ TA. The LTC1844E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the – 40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. Note 3: The LTC1844 adjustable versions are tested and specifed for these conditions with the ADJ pin connected to the OUT pin for a VOUT(NOMINAL) of 1.252V. Note 4: 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 5: The LTC1844’s high precision degrades slightly at high temperatures (TJ > 70°C) with input voltages below 2.2V. The lower output voltage versions have been split into higher and lower accuracy input voltage ranges to reflect this.
Note 6: To ensure adequate input supply voltage, the LTC1844 adjustable versions are tested and specified for these conditions with an external resistor divider (two 100k resistors) for an output voltage of 2.504V. The external resistor divider will add a 5µA load on the output. Note 7: Dropout voltage is (VIN – VOUT) when VOUT falls to 100mV below its nominal value measured at VIN = VOUT + 0.5V. For example, the LTC1844-3.3 is tested by measuring the VOUT at VIN = 3.8V, then VIN is lowered until VOUT falls 100mV below the measured value. The difference (VIN – VOUT) is then measured and defined as ∆VDO. Note 8: ADJ pin bias current flows into the ADJ pin. Note 9: Output reverse leakage current is tested with the IN pin grounded and the OUT pin forced to the rated output voltage. 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.

LTC1844 Series
PI FU CTIO S
IN (Pin 1): Power for LTC1844 and Load. Power is supplied to the device through the IN pin. The IN pin should be locally bypassed to ground if the LTC1844 is more than a few inches away from another source of bulk capacitance. In general, the output impedance of a battery rises with frequency, so it is usually adviseable to include an input bypass capacitor in battery-powered circuits. A capacitor in the range of 0.1µF to 1µF is usually sufficient. The LTC1844 is designed to withstand reverse voltages on the IN pin with respect to both ground and the output pin. In the case of a reversed input, which can happen if a battery is plugged in backwards, the LTC1844 will act as if there is a large resistor in series with its input with only a small amount of current flow. GND (Pin 2): Ground and Heat Sink. Solder to a ground plane or large pad to maximize heat dissipation. SHDN (Pin 3, Fixed and SD Devices): Shutdown, Active Low. This pin is used to put the LTC1844 into shutdown. The SHDN pin current is typically less than 10nA. The SHDN pin cannot be left floating and must be tied to the input pin if not used. If reverse-battery protection is desired, the SHDN pin must be tied to the input pin through a large value resistor (10k to 1M). ADJ (Pin 4, Adjustable Devices): Output Adjust. For the adjustable versions of the LTC1844, this is the input to the error amplifier. It has a typical bias current of 30nA flowing into the pin. The ADJ pin reference voltage is 1.25V referenced to ground. The output voltage range is 1.25V to 6V and is typically set by connecting ADJ to a resistor divider from OUT to GND. See Figure 2. BYP (Pin 4, Fixed/Pin 3, BYP Devices): Noise Bypass. The BYP pin is used to augment the internal noise filter to improve low noise performance. A small low leakage bypass capacitor from this pin to ground will filter the input of the error amplifier to lower the output voltage noise. Any value may be used; larger values will result in lower output noise, but will increase initial power-up time. Shutdown exit delay time after a brief shutdown (
