200mA, Automotive, Ultra-Low Quiescent Current, Linear Regulator
General Description
The MAX16910 ultra-low quiescent current, high-voltage linear regulator is ideal for use in automotive and batteryoperated systems. The device operates from a +3.5V to +30V input voltage, delivers up to 200mA of load current, and consumes only 20µA of quiescent current at no load. The device consumes only 1.6µA current when in shutdown. The input is +45V transient tolerant and is designed to operate under load-dump conditions. The MAX16910 can be configured as either fixed output voltage (+3.3V or +5V) or adjustable output voltage using an external resistive divider. The MAX16910 features an open-drain, active-low RESET output with fixed thresholds offered at 92.5% and 87.5% of the output voltage. The RESET output remains low for a fixed period of 60µs after the output voltage exceeds its threshold. The RESET delay can be extended with an external capacitor. The MAX16910 includes an enable input, short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown. The MAX16910 operates over the -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range. The device is available in a space-saving, thermally enhanced, 3mm x 3mm, 8-pin TDFN package and 5mm x 4mm, 8-pin SO package.

Pull ENABLE low (or leave unconnected) to place the device in a low-power shutdown mode. ENABLE is internally pulled down to GND through a 0.65FA current sink. Feedback Network Selector. Connect SET to GND when operating the MAX16910 in fixed outputvoltage mode (3.3V or 5V) using the internal feedback network. Connect SET to IN or any voltage higher than 2.4V when an external feedback network (resistive divider) is used, operating the MAX16910 in adjustable output-voltage mode. Active-Low, Open-Drain Reset Output. RESET asserts low when OUT is below the reset threshold, and remains low for the duration of the reset timeout period after the reset conditions end. RESET also asserts low when ENABLE is low and during thermal shutdown. Reset-Timeout-Period Adjust Input. Internal capacitance produces a 60Fs default delay when TIMEOUT is left unconnected. Connect a capacitor from TIMEOUT to GND to set a longer timeout period than default. Regulated Output-Voltage Selector. Connect SETOV to OUT for a 5V fixed output, or connect SETOV to GND for a 3.3V fixed output. SETOV becomes the feedback path when using an external resistive divider for an adjustable output. Ground Regulator Output. Bypass OUT to GND with a minimum of 4.7FF. Use a low-ESR, ceramic capacitor (X7R, X5R) for optimal performance. The SETOV input controls the output voltage when in fixed +3.3V or fixed +5V output-voltage mode. Using an external resistive divider between OUT and SETOV sets adjustable output voltage from +1.5V to +11V. Exposed Pad. EP is internally connected to GND. Connect EP to the ground plane to provide a low thermal-resistance path from the thermal junction to the PCB. Do not use EP as the only electrical connection to GND.

_______________Detailed Description
The MAX16910 low-quiescent current, high-voltage linear regulator is ideal for use in automotive and batteryoperated systems. The device operates from an input voltage of +3.5V to +30V, delivers up to 200mA of load current, and consumes only 20µA of quiescent current at no load. The input is +45V tolerant and is designed to operate under load-dump conditions. The MAX16910 can be user configured as either a fixed output voltage (+3.3V or +5V) or an adjustable output voltage using an external resistive divider. The MAX16910 features an open-drain, active-low RESET output with fixed thresholds offered at 92.5% and 87.5% of the output voltage. The RESET output remains low for a fixed period of 60µs after the output voltage exceeds its threshold. The RESET delay can be extended with an external capacitor. The MAX16910 includes an enable input short-circuit protection and thermal shutdown.
The SET and SETOV inputs determine the output mode. For the 5V fixed output-voltage mode (see the 5V fixed output circuit in the Typical Operating Circuits), connect SET to GND and SETOV to OUT. For the 3.3V fixed output-voltage mode (see the 3.3V fixed output circuit in the Typical Operating Circuits) connect SET to GND and SETOV to GND.
Fixed Output-Voltage Mode
For the adjustable output-voltage mode (see the adjustable output circuit in the Typical Operating Circuits), connect SET to IN or a voltage > 2.4V and connect SETOV to a resistive divider R1 and R2 between OUT and GND. An output voltage between 1.5V and 11V can be selected using the following equation: VOUT = VSETOV x (1 + R1/R2) where VSETOV = 1.25V and R2 should be less than or equal to 100kω.

200mA, Automotive, Ultra-Low Quiescent Current, Linear Regulator MAX16910
ENABLE is an active-high, logic-level enable input that turns the device on or off. Drive ENABLE high to turn the device on. An internal 0.65µA pulldown current keeps the MAX16910 in shutdown mode when driven by a three-state driver in high-impedance mode, or an open-drain driver. When in shutdown, the MAX16910 consumes only 1.6µA. ENABLE withstands voltages up to 45V, allowing it to be driven by high-input level voltages or connected to IN for always-on operation. The MAX16910 features thermal protection. When the junction temperature exceeds +180°C, an internal thermal sensor turns off the pass transistor, and allows the device to cool. The thermal sensor turns on the pass transistor again after the junction temperature cools by 25°C. This results in a cycled output during continuous thermal-overload conditions. Thermal protection protects the MAX16910 in the event of fault conditions. For continuous operation, do not exceed the absolute maximum junction temperature rating of +150°C. The MAX16910 features a 330mA current limit. The output can be shorted to GND continuously without damage to the device. During a short circuit, the power dissipated across the pass transistor can quickly heat the device. When the die temperature reaches +180°C, the MAX16910 turns off the pass transistor and automatically restarts after the die temperature has cooled by 25°C. The MAX16910 features an active-low, open-drain reset output. Once the monitored output voltage exceeds the reset threshold voltage, RESET remains low for the reset timeout period and then goes high. RESET changes from high to low whenever the monitored output voltage drops below the reset threshold voltage. RESET also asserts low when ENABLE is low and during thermal shutdown. The MAX16910 features a reset timeout period adjustable input. The internal capacitance produces a 60µs default delay when TIMEOUT is left unconnected. Connect a capacitor from TIMEOUT to GND to set a higher timeout period than default. Use the following formula to determine the reset timeout capacitor: CTIMEOUT = 0.8 x ITO x TTIMEOUT
ENABLE
where CTIMEOUT is in nF, ITO is in µA, and TTIMEOUT is in ms. For example, if ITO is 1µA, CTIMEOUT needs to be 8nF to get a 10ms delay.
___________Applications Information
Output-Capacitor Selection and Regulator Stability
Thermal Protection
For stable operation over the full temperature range, with fixed 3.3V and 5.0V output voltages, use a low-ESR 4.7µF capacitor. For resistor-programmed output voltages, a 10µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor is recommended for stable operation. Use larger output-capacitor values such as 22µF to reduce noise, improve load-transient response and power-supply rejection. Some ceramic dielectrics exhibit large capacitance and ESR variations with temperature. To improve power-supply rejection and transient response, use a capacitor larger than the minimum 1µF capacitor between IN and GND. The MAX16910 provides up to 200mA of continuous output current. The input voltage range extends to 30V. Package power dissipation limits the amount of output current available for a given input/output voltage and ambient temperature. Figure 1 shows the maximum allowable power dissipation for these devices to keep the junction temperature below +150°C. Figure 1 assumes that the exposed metal pad of the MAX16910 is soldered to a 1in2 of multilayer copper board. Use Figure 1 to determine the allowable package dissipation for a given ambient temperature. Alternately, use the following formulas to calculate the allowable power dissipation PD. For the TDFN-EP package:
1.951W for TA ≤ +70°C PD = W 1.951W − 0.0244 °C × ( TA − 70°C) for + 70°C ≤ TA < +125°C

For the SO-EP package:

12_ _ ______________________________________________________________________________________
200mA, Automotive, Ultra-Low Quiescent Current, Linear Regulator
After determining the allowable power dissipation, calculate the maximum allowable output current, without exceeding the +150°C junction temperature, using the following formula: The reset timeout period is adjustable to accommodate a variety of microprocessor applications. Adjust the reset timeout period by connecting a capacitor between TIMEOUT and GND.

The above equations do not include the negligible power dissipation from self-heating due to the device ground current. Example 1 (TDFN-EP Package): TA = +125°C, VIN = 16V, VOUT = 3.3V Calculate the maximum allowable power dissipation at the given temperature as follows:
1.25 × C TIMEOUT I TO
where tRP is in ms and CTIMEOUT is in nF. Leave TIMEOUT unconnected to select the internally fixed timeout period. CTIMEOUT must be a low-leakage (< 10nA) type capacitor. Ceramic capacitors are recommended; do not use capacitor values lower than 100pF to avoid the influence of parasitic capacitances. The MAX16910 package features an exposed thermal pad on its underside that should be used as a heatsink. This pad lowers the package’s thermal resistance by providing a direct heat-conduction path from the die to the PCB. Connect the exposed pad and GND to the system ground using a large pad or ground plane, or multiple vias to the ground plane layer.

And establish the maximum output current:

609mW ≅ 48mA 16V − 3.3V
Example 2 (TDFN-EP Package): TA = +50°C, VIN = 9V, VOUT = 5V Calculate the maximum allowable power dissipation at the given temperature as follows: PD = 1.951W

Find the maximum output current:
IOUT(MAX) = 1.951W = 488mA ⇒ IOUT(MAX) = ISC = 330mA (typ) 9V − 5V
DERATE 24.4mW/°C
In Example 2, the maximum output current is calculated as 488mA. The allowable output current cannot exceed the given internal current limit for the device of 330mA (typ).
