Enable Input. Pulling this pin below 0.5V turns the regulator off, reducing the quiescent current to a fraction of its operating value. The device will be enabled if this pin is left open. Connect to VIN if the enable feature is not being used. Input voltage pin. For regulation at full load, the input to this pin must between ( VOUT + 0.5V ) and 5.5V. Minimum VIN = 1.5V . A large bulk capacitance should be placed close to this pin to ensure that the input supply does not sag below 1.5V. Also a minimum of 4.7µF ceramic capacitor should be placed directly at this pin. This pin is the power output of this device. A minimum 10µF capacitor should be placed directly at this pin. When this pin is connected to the VOUT pin , the output voltage will be set to 0.5V . If external feedback resistors are used , the output voltage will be determined by the resistor ratio (See Application Circuits on page1): 0.5 ⋅ (R 1 + R 2 ) VOUT = R2 Volts R1: The resistor connected from VOUT to FB.

It provides a very simple, low cost solution that uses very little PCB real estate. Additional features include an enable pin to allow for a very low power consumption standby mode, and a fully adjustable output. Component Selection Input capacitor: A large bulk capacitance of ≥ 10 µF should be placed close to the input supply pin of the SC4212 to ensure that VIN does not sag below 1.5V. Also a minimum 4.7μF ceramic capacitor is recommended to be placed directly next to the VIN pin. This allows for the device being some distance fromany bulk ca pacitance on the rail. Additionally, input droop due to load transients is reduced, improving load transient response. Additional capacitance may be added if re quired by the application. Output capacitor: A minimum bulk capacitance of ≥ 10μF, along with a 0.1μF ceramic decoupling capacitor is recommended. Increasing the bulk capacitance will improve the overall transient response.The use of mul tiple lower value ceramic capacitors in parallel to achieve the desired bulk capacitance will not cause stability issues. Although designed for use with ceramic output capacitors, the SC4212 is extremely tolerant of output capacitor ESR values and thus will also work comfortably with tantalum output capacitors. Noise immunity: In very electrically noisy environments, it is recommended that 0.1 μF ceramic capacitors be placed from VIN to GND and VOUT to GND as close to the device pins as possible. External voltage selection resistors: T he use of 1% resistors designed for a current flow ≥ 10 µA is recom mended to ensure a well-regulated output (thus R2 ≤ 50k Ω). Enable: Pulling the EN pin below 0.5V turns the regula tor off, reducing the quiescent current to a fraction of its operating value. A pull up resistor up to 400kΩ should be connected from the EN pin to the VIN pin in application where an input voltage of < 1.9V is required. For applications with input voltages higher than 1.9V, the EN pin could be left open or connected to VIN. Thermal Considerations The power dissipation in the SC4212 is approximately equal to the product of the output current and the input to output voltage differential: PO = (VIN − VOUT) ⋅ I OUT The absolute worst-case dissipation is given by: PO(MAX) = (VIN (MAX) − VOUT(MIN) ) ⋅ I OUT(MAX) + VIN (MAX) ⋅ I Q(MAX) For a typical scenario, VIN = 3.3V ± 5%, VOUT = 2.8V and IOUT = 1A, therefore: VIN(MAX) = 3.465V, VOUT(MIN) = 2.744V and IQ(MAX) = 3mA Thus PD(MAX) = 0.731W. Using this figure, and assuming TA(MAX) = 70°C, we can calculate the maximum thermal impedance allowable to maintain TJ ≤ 125°C:  TJ(MAX) − TA(MAX)   125°C − 70°C  = R TH(J − A)(MAX) =  = 75 °C W    0.731W  PO(MAX)    This should be achievable with the 3mm x 3mm MLPD-8 package using PCB copper area to aid in conducting the heat away, such as one square inch of copper connected to the ground pins of the device. Internal ground/power planes and air flow will also assist in removing heat. For higher ambient tempertures it may be necessary to use additional copper area. 7 SC4212 Outline Drawing — 3mm x 3mm MLPD-8 Land Pattern — 3mm x 3mm MLPD-8 K Y DIM G Z C G H K P X Y Z DIMENSIONS INCHES MILLIMETERS (.116) .087 .067 .102 .026 .016 .030 .146 (2.95) 2.20 1.70 2.58 0.65 0.40 0.75 3.70 (C) H X P NOTES: 1. 2.
