Low Noise LDO with Low IQ And High
PSRR
Features
ISL9003 is a high performance single low noise, high PSRR
LDO that delivers a continuous 150mA of load current. It has
a low standby current and is stable with 1µF of MLCC output
capacitance with an ESR of up to 200mΩ.
• Excellent transient response to large current steps
• High performance LDO with 150mA continuous output
The ISL9003 has a very high PSRR of 90dB and output
noise is 20µVRMS (typical). When coupled with a no load
quiescent current of 30µA (typical), and 0.5µA shutdown
current, the ISL9003 is an ideal choice for portable wireless
equipment.
The ISL9003 comes in many fixed voltage options with
±1.8% output voltage accuracy over temperature, line and
load. Other output voltage options are available on request.
Pinout
• Excellent load regulation:
< 0.1% voltage change across full range of load current
• Very high PSRR: >90dB @ 1kHz
• Wide input voltage capability: 2.3V to 6.5V
• Extremely low quiescent current: 29µA
• Low dropout voltage: typically 200mV @ 150mA
• Low output noise: typically 20µVRMS @ 100µA (1.5V)
• Stable with 1µF to 4.7µF ceramic capacitors
• Shutdown pin turns off LDO with 1µA (max) standby
current
• Soft-start limits input current surge during enable

Functional Description
Reference Generation
The ISL9003 contains all circuitry required to implement a
high performance LDO. High performance is achieved
through a circuit that delivers fast transient response to
varying load conditions. In a quiescent condition, the
ISL9003 adjusts its biasing to achieve the lowest standby
current consumption.
The reference generation circuitry includes a trimmed
bandgap, a trimmed voltage reference divider, a trimmed
current reference generator, and an RC noise filter. The filter
includes the external capacitor connected to the CBYP pin.
A 0.01µF capacitor connected CBYP implements a 100Hz
lowpass filter, and is recommended for most high
performance applications. For the lowest noise application, a
0.1µF or greater CBYP capacitor should be used. This filters
the reference noise to below the 10Hz to 1kHz frequency
band, which is crucial in many noise-sensitive applications.
The device also integrates current limit protection, smart
thermal shutdown protection, and soft-start. Smart Thermal
shutdown protects the device against overheating. Soft-start
minimizes start-up input current surges without causing
excessive device turn-on time.
Power Control
The ISL9003 has an enable pin, EN, to control power to the
LDO output. When EN is low, the device is in shutdown
mode. In this condition, all on-chip circuits are off, and the
device draws minimum current, typically less than 0.3µA.
When the EN pin goes high, the device first polls the output
of the UVLO detector to ensure that VIN voltage is at least
2.1V (typical). Once verified, the device initiates a start-up
sequence. During the start-up sequence, trim settings are
first read and latched. Then, sequentially, the bandgap,
reference voltage and current generation circuitry turn on.
Once the references are stable, the LDO powers up.
During operation, whenever the VIN voltage drops below
about 1.84V, the ISL9003 immediately disables the LDO
output. When VIN rises back above 2.1V (assuming the EN
pin is high), the device re-initiates its start-up sequence and
LDO operation resumes automatically.
The bandgap generates a zero temperature coefficient (TC)
voltage for the regulator reference and other voltage
references required for current generation and
over-temperature detection.
A current generator provides references required for
adaptive biasing as well as references for LDO output
current limit and thermal shutdown determination.
LDO Regulation and Programmable Output Divider
The LDO Regulator is implemented with a high-gain
operational amplifier driving a PMOS pass transistor. The
design of the ISL9003 provides a regulator that has low
quiescent current, fast transient response, and overall
stability across all operating and load current conditions.
LDO stability is guaranteed for a 1µF to 4.7µF output
capacitor that has a tolerance better than 20% and ESR less
than 200mΩ. The design is performance-optimized for a 1µF
capacitor. Unless limited by the application, use of an output
capacitor value above 4.7µF is not recommended as LDO
performance improvement is minimal.
Soft-start circuitry integrated into each LDO limits the initial
ramp-up rate to about 30µs/V to minimize current surge. The
8
FN9233.1
April 15, 2008
ISL9003
ISL9003 provides short-circuit protection by limiting the
output current to about 200mA (typ).
The LDO uses an independently trimmed 1V reference as its
input. An internal resistor divider drops the LDO output
voltage down to 1V. This is compared to the 1V reference for
regulation. The resistor division ratio is programmed in the
factory.
Overheat Detection
The bandgap outputs a proportional-to-temperature current
that is indicative of the temperature of the silicon. This
current is compared with references to determine if the
device is in danger of damage due to overheating. When the
die temperature reaches about +140°C, the LDO
momentarily shuts down until the die cools sufficiently. In the
overheat condition, if the LDO sources more than 50mA it
will be shut off. Once the die temperature falls back below
about +110°C, the disabled LDO is re-enabled and soft-start
automatically takes place.
