CS8129
5.0 V, 750 mA Low Dropout
Linear Regulator with
Lower RESET Threshold
The CS8129 is a precision 5.0 V linear regulator capable of sourcing
750 mA. The RESET threshold voltage has been lowered to 4.2 V so
that the regulator can be used with 4.0 V microprocessors. The lower
RESET threshold also permits operation under low battery conditions
(5.5 V plus a diode). The RESET’s delay time is externally
programmed using a discrete RC network. During powerup, or when
the output goes out of regulation, RESET remains in the low state for
the duration of the delay. This function is independent of the input
voltage and will function correctly as long as the output voltage
remains at or above 1.0 V. Hysteresis is included in the Delay and the
RESET comparators to improve noise immunity. A latching discharge
circuit is used to discharge the delay capacitor when it is triggered by a
brief fault condition.
The regulator is protected against a variety of fault conditions: i.e.
reverse battery, overvoltage, short circuit and thermal runaway
conditions. The regulator is protected against voltage transients ranging
from −50 V to +40 V. Short circuit current is limited to 1.2 A (typ).
The CS8129 is packaged in a 16 lead surface mount package.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The CS8129 RESET function has hysteresis on both the
reset and delay comparators, a latching Delay capacitor
discharge circuit, and operates down to 1.0 V.
The RESET circuit output is an open collector type with
ON and OFF parameters as specified. The RESET output
NPN transistor is controlled by the two circuits described
(see Block Diagram on page 2).

go to the OFF (open) state only when the voltage on the
Delay lead is higher than VDC(HI).

This circuit monitors output voltage, and when output
voltage is below the specified minimum causes the RESET
output transistor to be in the ON (saturation) state. When the
output voltage is above the specified level, this circuit permits
the RESET output transistor to go into the OFF state if
allowed by the RESET Delay circuit.

Reset Delay Circuit
Figure 13. Test & Application Circuit
This circuit provides a programmable (by external
capacitor) delay on the RESET output lead. The Delay lead
provides source current to the external delay capacitor only
when the “Low Voltage Inhibit” circuit indicates that output
voltage is above VRT(ON). Otherwise, the Delay lead sinks
current to ground (used to discharge the delay capacitor).
The discharge current is latched ON when the output voltage
is below VRT(OFF). The Delay capacitor is fully discharged
anytime the output voltage falls out of regulation, even for
a short period of time. This feature ensures that a controlled
RESET pulse is generated following detection of an error
The Delay time for the RESET function is calculated from
the formula:
Delay time +
CDelay
VDelay Threshold
ICharge
Delay time + CDelay(mF)

105
If CDelay = 0.1 mF, Delay time (ms) = 32 ms ±50%: i.e.
16 ms to 48 ms. The tolerance of the capacitor must be taken
into account to calculate the total variation in the delay time.
APPLICATION NOTES
STABILITY CONSIDERATIONS
connected in series with the capacitor will simulate the
higher ESR of an aluminum capacitor. Leave the decade box
outside the chamber, the small resistance added by the
longer leads is negligible.
Step 2: With the input voltage at its maximum value,
increase the load current slowly from zero to full load while
observing the output for any oscillations. If no oscillations
are observed, the capacitor is large enough to ensure a stable
design under steady state conditions.
Step 3: Increase the ESR of the capacitor from zero using
the decade box and vary the load current until oscillations
appear. Record the values of load current and ESR that cause
the greatest oscillation. This represents the worst case load
conditions for the regulator at low temperature.
Step 4: Maintain the worst case load conditions set in
step 3 and vary the input voltage until the oscillations
increase. This point represents the worst case input voltage
conditions.
Step 5: If the capacitor is adequate, repeat steps 3 and 4
with the next smaller valued capacitor. A smaller capacitor
will usually cost less and occupy less board space. If the
output oscillates within the range of expected operating
conditions, repeat steps 3 and 4 with the next larger standard
capacitor value.
The output or compensation capacitor helps determine
three main characteristics of a linear regulator: start−up
delay, load transient response and loop stability.
The capacitor value and type should be based on cost,
availability, size and temperature constraints. A tantalum or
aluminum electrolytic capacitor is best, since a film or
ceramic capacitor with almost zero ESR can cause
instability. The aluminum electrolytic capacitor is the least
expensive solution, but, if the circuit operates at low
temperatures (−25°C to −40°C), both the value and ESR of
the capacitor will vary considerably. The capacitor
manufacturers data sheet usually provides this information.
The value for the output capacitor COUT shown in Figure
13 should work for most applications, however it is not
necessarily the optimized solution.
To determine an acceptable value for COUT for a particular
application, start with a tantalum capacitor of the
recommended value and work towards a less expensive
alternative part.
Step 1: Place the completed circuit with a tantalum
capacitor of the recommended value in an environmental
chamber at the lowest specified operating temperature and
monitor the outputs with an oscilloscope. A decade box

Step 6: Test the load transient response by switching in
various loads at several frequencies to simulate its real
working environment. Vary the ESR to reduce ringing.
Step 7: Raise the temperature to the highest specified
operating temperature. Vary the load current as instructed in
step 5 to test for any oscillations.

HEAT SINKS
A heat sink effectively increases the surface area of the
package to improve the flow of heat away from the IC and
into the surrounding air.
Each material in the heat flow path between the IC and the
outside environment will have a thermal resistance. Like
series electrical resistances, these resistances are summed to
determine the value of RqJA.
The maximum power dissipation for a single output
regulator (Figure 14) is:

RqJA + RqJC ) RqCS ) RqSA
where:
VIN(max) is the maximum input voltage,
VOUT(min) is the minimum output voltage,
IOUT(max) is the maximum output current for the
application, and
IQ is the quiescent current the regulator consumes at
IOUT(max).
Once the value of PD(max) is known, the maximum
permissible value of RqJA can be calculated:

Features
Once the minimum capacitor value with the maximum
ESR is found, a safety factor should be added to allow for the
tolerance of the capacitor and any variations in regulator
performance. Most good quality aluminum electrolytic
capacitors have a tolerance of ± 20% so the minimum value
found should be increased by at least 50% to allow for this
tolerance plus the variation which will occur at low
temperatures. The ESR of the capacitor should be less than
50% of the maximum allowable ESR found in step 3 above.

where:
RqJC = the junction−to−case thermal resistance,
RqCS = the case−to−heatsink thermal resistance, and
RqSA = the heatsink−to−ambient thermal resistance.
RqJC appears in the package section of the data sheet. Like
RqJA, it too is a function of package type. RqCS and RqSA are
functions of the package type, heatsink and the interface
between them. These values appear in heat sink data sheets
of heat sink manufacturers.
(2)
The value of RqJA can then be compared with those in the
package section of the data sheet. Those packages with
RqJA’s less than the calculated value in equation 2 will keep
the die temperature below 150°C.
In some cases, none of the packages will be sufficient to
dissipate the heat generated by the IC, and an external
heatsink will be required.
