500 mA, Very Low Dropout
Bias Rail CMOS Voltage
Regulator
The NCP145 is a 500 mA VLDO equipped with NMOS pass
transistor and a separate bias supply voltage (VBIAS). The device
provides very stable, accurate output voltage with low noise suitable
for space constrained, noise sensitive applications. In order to
optimize performance for battery operated portable applications, the
NCP145 features low IQ consumption. The XDFN4 1.2 mm x 1.2 mm
package is optimized for use in space constrained applications.

Figure 17. Typical Application: Low−Voltage DC/DC Post−Regulator with ON/OFF Functionality
or greater. Ceramic capacitors are recommended. For the
best performance all the capacitors should be connected to
the NCP145 respective pins directly in the device PCB
copper layer, not through vias having not negligible
impedance.
When using small ceramic capacitor, their capacitance is
not constant but varies with applied DC biasing voltage,
temperature and tolerance. The effective capacitance can be
much lower than their nominal capacitance value, most
importantly in negative temperatures and higher LDO
output voltages. That is why the recommended Output
capacitor capacitance value is specified as Effective value in
the specific application conditions.
The NCP145 dual−rail very low dropout voltage regulator
is using NMOS pass transistor for output voltage regulation
from VIN voltage. All the low current internal control
circuitry is powered from the VBIAS voltage.
The use of an NMOS pass transistor offers several
advantages in applications. Unlike PMOS topology devices,
the output capacitor has reduced impact on loop stability.
Vin to Vout operating voltage difference can be very low
compared with standard PMOS regulators in very low Vin
applications.
The NCP145 offers smooth monotonic start-up. The
controlled voltage rising limits the inrush current.
The Enable (EN) input is equipped with internal
hysteresis. NCP145 Voltage linear regulator Fixed version
is available.
Enable Operation
The enable pin will turn the regulator on or off. The
threshold limits are covered in the electrical characteristics
table in this data sheet. If the enable function is not to be used
then the pin should be connected to VIN or VBIAS.
Dropout Voltage
Because of two power supply inputs VIN and VBIAS and
one VOUT regulator output, there are two Dropout voltages
specified.
The first, the VIN Dropout voltage is the voltage
difference (VIN – VOUT) when VOUT starts to decrease by
percent specified in the Electrical Characteristics table.
VBIAS is high enough; specific value is published in the
Electrical Characteristics table.
The second, VBIAS dropout voltage is the voltage
difference (VBIAS – VOUT) when VIN and VBIAS pins are
joined together and VOUT starts to decrease.
Current Limitation
The internal Current Limitation circuitry allows the
device to supply the full nominal current and surges but
protects the device against Current Overload or Short.
Thermal Protection
Internal thermal shutdown (TSD) circuitry is provided to
protect the integrated circuit in the event that the maximum
junction temperature is exceeded. When TSD activated , the
regulator output turns off. When cooling down under the low
temperature threshold, device output is activated again. This
TSD feature is provided to prevent failures from accidental
overheating.
Activation of the thermal protection circuit indicates
excessive power dissipation or inadequate heatsinking. For
reliable operation, junction temperature should be limited to
+125°C maximum.
Input and Output Capacitors
The device is designed to be stable for ceramic output
capacitors with Effective capacitance in the range from
2.2 mF to 10 mF. The device is also stable with multiple
capacitors in parallel, having the total effective capacitance
in the specified range.
In applications where no low input supplies impedance
available (PCB inductance in VIN and/or VBIAS inputs as
example), the recommended CIN = 1 mF and CBIAS = 0.1 mF
