RT9193
300mA, Ultra-Low Noise, Ultra-Fast CMOS LDO Regulator
General Description
Features
The RT9193 is designed for portable RF and wireless
applications with demanding performance and space
requirements. The RT9193 performance is optimized for
battery-powered systems to deliver ultra low noise and
low quiescent current. A noise bypass pin is available for
further reduction of output noise. Regulator ground current
increases only slightly in dropout, further prolonging the
battery life. The RT9193 also works with low-ESR ceramic
capacitors, reducing the amount of board space necessary
for power applications, critical in hand-held wireless
devices. The RT9193 consumes less than 0.01μA in
Ultra Low Noise for RF Application
shutdown mode and has fast turn-on time less than 50μs.
The other features include ultra low dropout voltage, high
output accuracy, current limiting protection, and high ripple
rejection ratio. Available in the SC-70-5, SOT-23-5,
TSOT-23-5, WDFN-6L 2x2 and MSOP-8 packages.

RT9193
Applications Information
Like any low dropout regulator, the external capacitors
used with the RT9193 must be carefully selected for
regulator stability and performance. Using a capacitor
whose value is >1μF on the RT9193 input and the amount
of capacitance can be increased without limit. The input
capacitor must be located a distance of not more than 0.5
inch from the input pin of the IC and returned to a clean
analog ground. Any good quality ceramic or tantalum can
be used for this capacitor. The capacitor with larger value
and lower ESR (equivalent series resistance) provides
better PSRR and line-transient response. The output
capacitor must meet both requirements for minimum
amount of capacitance and ESR in all LDOs application.
The RT9193 is designed specifically to work with low ESR
ceramic output capacitor in space-saving and performance
consideration. Using a ceramic capacitor whose value is
at least 1μF with ESR is >1mΩ on the RT9193 output
ensures stability. The RT9193 still works well with output
capacitor of other types due to the wide stable ESR range.
Figure 1 shows the curves of allowable ESR range as a
function of load current for various output capacitor values.
Output capacitor of larger capacitance can reduce noise
and improve load transient response, stability, and PSRR.
The output capacitor should be located not more than 0.5
inch from the VOUT pin of the RT9193 and returned to a
clean analog ground.
Region of Stable COUT ESR vs. Load Current
100
Connecting a 22nF between the BP pin and GND pin
significantly reduces noise on the regulator output, it is
critical that the capacitor connection between the BP pin
and GND pin be direct and PCB traces should be as short
as possible. There is a relationship between the bypass
capacitor value and the LDO regulator turn on time. DC
leakage on this pin can affect the LDO regulator output
noise and voltage regulation performance.
Enable Function
The RT9193 features an LDO regulator enable/disable
function. To assure the LDO regulator will switch on, the
EN turn on control level must be greater than 1.2 volts.
The LDO regulator will go into the shutdown mode when
the voltage on the EN pin falls below 0.4 volts. For to
protecting the system, the RT9193 have a quick-discharge
function. If the enable function is not needed in a specific
application, it may be tied to VIN to keep the LDO regulator
in a continuously on state.
Thermal Considerations
Thermal protection limits power dissipation in RT9193.
When the operation junction temperature exceeds 165°C,
the OTP circuit starts the thermal shutdown function turn
the pass element off. The pass element turn on again
after the junction temperature cools by 30°C.
For continue operation, do not exceed absolute maximum
operation junction temperature 125°C. The power
dissipation definition in device is :

PD = (VIN − VOUT) x IOUT + VIN x IQ

The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal
resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of
surroundings airflow and temperature difference between
junction to ambient. The maximum power dissipation can
be calculated by following formula :

For recommended operating conditions specification of
RT9193, where T J(MAX) is the maximum junction
temperature of the die (125°C) and TA is the maximum
ambient temperature. The junction to ambient thermal
resistance (θJA is layout dependent) for TSOT-23-5/
SOT-23-5 package is 250°C/W, SC-70-5 package is
333°C/W, WDFN-6L 2x2 package is 165°C/W and MSOP8 package is 160°C/W on standard JEDEC 51-3 thermal
test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C
can be calculated by following formula :
PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / 333 = 300mW for
SC-70-5
PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / 250 = 400mW for
TSOT-23-5/SOT-23-5
PD(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / 165 = 606mW for
WDFN-6L 2x2
PD(MAX) = (125°C −25°C) / 160 = 625mW for
MSOP-8
The maximum power dissipation depends on operating
ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal
resistance θJA. For RT9193 packages, the Figure 2 of
derating curves allows the designer to see the effect of
rising ambient temperature on the maximum power
allowed.
