APPLICATION NOTE
Programming the BCT2040 Adjustable LDO regulator
The output voltage of the BCT2040 adjustable regulator is programmed using an external resistor
divider as show in Figure as below. The output voltage is calculated using equation as below:
R1
VOUT= VREF × 1 +
R2
Where:
VREF=0.8V typ (the internal reference voltage)
Resistors R1 and R2 should be chosen for approximately 50uA divider current. Lower value resistors
can be used for improved noise performance, but the solution consumes more power. Higher resistor
values should be avoided as leakage current into/out of FB across R1/R2 creates an offset voltage that
artificially increases/decreases the feedback voltage and thus erroneously decrease/increases VOUT.
Enable Function
The BCT2040 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 1.5 volts. The LDO regulator will go into the
shutdown mode when the voltage on the EN pin falls below 0.3 volts. For to protect the system, the
BCT2040 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 BCT2040. When the operation junction temperature
exceeds 150°C, the OTP circuit starts the thermal shutdown function turn the pass element off. The pass
element turns on again after the junction temperature cools by 15°C.
For continue operation, do not exceed absolute maximum operation junction temperature 150°C. The
power dissipation definition in device is:
PD = (VIN−VOUT) ×IOUT + VIN×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:
PD(MAX) = ( TJ(MAX) − TA ) /θJA

Where TJ(MAX) is the maximum operation junction temperature 150°C, TA is the ambient
temperature and the θJA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. For recommended operating
conditions specification of BCT2040, where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature of the die
(150°C) and TA is the maximum ambient temperature. The junction to ambient thermal resistance (θJA is
layout dependent) for ESOP-8 package is 100°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) = (150°C−25°C)/100 = 1.25W (ESOP-8)
The maximum power dissipation depends on operating ambient temperature for fixed TJ(MAX) and
thermal resistance θJA. It is also useful to calculate the junction of temperature of the BCT2040 under a
set of specific conditions. In this example let the Input voltage VIN=3.3V, the output current Io=500mA and
the case temperature TA=40°C measured by a thermal couple during operation. The power dissipation for
the Vo=2.8V version of the BCT2040 can be calculated as:
PD = (3.3V−2.8V) ×500mA+3.3V×100uA
=250.33mW
And the junction temperature, TJ, can be calculated as follows:
TJ=TA+PD×θJA=40°C+0.25W×100°C/W
=40°C+25°C=65°C
