This device is an excellent choice for use in battery-powered applications and portable computers. The SPX2810 has a very low quiescent current and a low dropout voltage of 1.1V at full load. As output current decreases, quiescent current flows into the load, increasing efficiency. SPX2810 is available in adjustable or fixed 2.5V, 3.0V and 3.3V output voltages. The SPX2810 is offered in several industry standard 3-pin surface mount packages: SOT-223, TO-252, TO-220 and TO-263. An output capacitor of 10µF or larger, provides unconditionally stability for most applications.

The value may change based on the application requirements of the output load or temperature range. The value of ESR can vary based on the type of capacitor used in the applications. The recommended value for ESR is 0.5Ω or less. A larger value of output capacitance (up to 100µF) can improve the load transient response. SOLDERING METHODS The SPX2810 SOT-223 package is designed to be compatible with infrared reflow or vaporphase reflow soldering techniques. During soldering, the non-active or mildly active fluxes may be used. The SPX2810 die is attached to the heatsink lead which exits opposite the input, output, and ground pins. Hand soldering and wave soldering should be avoided since these methods can cause damage to the device with excessive thermal gradients on the package. The SOT-223 recommended soldering method are as follows: vapor phase reflow and infrared reflow with the component preheated to within 65°C of the soldering temperature range. THERMAL CHARACTERISTICS The thermal resistance of SPX2810 depends on type of package and PC board layout as shown in Table 1. The SPX2810 features the internal thermal limiting to protect the device during overload conditions. Special care needs to be taken during continuous load conditions such that the maximum junction temperature does not exceed 125°C. Thermal protection is activated at >144°C and deactiviated at
