Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings indicate conditions for
which the device is intended to be functional, but specific performance is not ensured. For ensured specifications and the test
conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics.
If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/Distributors for availability and
specifications.
Power dissipation is kept in a safe range by current limiting circuitry. Refer to OVERLOAD RECOVERY in Application Note. The value
θJA for the WSON package is specifically dependent on PCB trace area, trace material, and the number of thermal vias. For improved
thermal resistance and power dissipation for the WSON package, refer to Application Note AN-1187 (literature number SNOA401).
The maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(MAX) , θJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient
temperature is PD = (TJ(MAX)–T A)/θJA. All numbers apply for packages soldered directly into a PC board. Refer to Thermal
Considerations in the Application Notes.
For testing purposes, ESD was applied using human body model, 1.5kΩ in series with 100pF.

All limits are specified by testing or statistical analysis.
Typical Values represent the most likely parametric norm.
IFULL LOAD is defined in the current limit curves. The IFULL LOAD Curve defines current limit as a function of input-to-output voltage. Note
that 15W power dissipation for the LM1086 is only achievable over a limited range of input-to-output voltage.
Load and line regulation are measured at constant junction temperature, and are specified up to the maximum power dissipation of
15W. Power dissipation is determined by the input/output differential and the output current. Ensured maximum power dissipation will
not be available over the full input/output range.
Dropout voltage is specified over the full output current range of the device.

LM1086
GENERAL
Figure 18 shows a basic functional diagram for the LM1086-Adj (excluding protection circuitry) . The topology is
basically that of the LM317 except for the pass transistor. Instead of a Darlingtion NPN with its two diode voltage
drop, the LM1086 uses a single NPN. This results in a lower dropout voltage. The structure of the pass transistor
is also known as a quasi LDO. The advantage a quasi LDO over a PNP LDO is its inherently lower quiescent
current. The LM1086 is specified to provide a minimum dropout voltage 1.5V over temperature, at full load.
Figure 18. Basic Functional Diagram for the LM1086, excluding Protection circuitry
OUTPUT VOLTAGE
The LM1086 adjustable version develops at 1.25V reference voltage, (VREF), between the output and the adjust
terminal. As shown in figure 2, this voltage is applied across resistor R1 to generate a constant current I1. This
constant current then flows through R2. The resulting voltage drop across R2 adds to the reference voltage to
sets the desired output voltage.
The current IADJ from the adjustment terminal introduces an output error . But since it is small (120uA max), it
becomes negligible when R1 is in the 100Ω range.
For fixed voltage devices, R1 and R2 are integrated inside the devices.
Figure 19. Basic Adjustable Regulator
STABILITY CONSIDERATION
Stability consideration primarily concern the phase response of the feedback loop. In order for stable operation,
the loop must maintain negative feedback. The LM1086 requires a certain amount series resistance with
capacitive loads. This series resistance introduces a zero within the loop to increase phase margin and thus
increase stability. The equivalent series resistance (ESR) of solid tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors is
used to provide the appropriate zero (approximately 500 kHz).
http://www.hgsemi.com.cn

2018 JUN
LM1086
The Aluminum electrolytic are less expensive than tantalums, but their ESR varies exponentially at cold
temperatures; therefore requiring close examination when choosing the desired transient response over
temperature. Tantalums are a convenient choice because their ESR varies less than 2:1 over temperature.
The recommended load/decoupling capacitance is a 10uF tantalum or a 50uF aluminum. These values will
assure stability for the majority of applications.
The adjustable versions allows an additional capacitor to be used at the ADJ pin to increase ripple rejection. If
this is done the output capacitor should be increased to 22uF for tantalums or to 150uF for aluminum.
Capacitors other than tantalum or aluminum can be used at the adjust pin and the input pin. A 10uF capacitor is
a reasonable value at the input. See RIPPLE REJECTION section regarding the value for the adjust pin
capacitor.
It is desirable to have large output capacitance for applications that entail large changes in load current
(microprocessors for example). The higher the capacitance, the larger the available charge per demand. It is also
desirable to provide low ESR to reduce the change in output voltage:
ΔV = ΔI x ESR
It is common practice to use several tantalum and ceramic capacitors in parallel to reduce this change in the
output voltage by reducing the overall ESR.
Output capacitance can be increased indefinitely to improve transient response and stability.
RIPPLE REJECTION
Ripple rejection is a function of the open loop gain within the feed-back loop (refer to Figure 18 and Figure 19).
The LM1086 exhibits 75dB of ripple rejection (typ.). When adjusted for voltages higher than VREF, the ripple
rejection decreases as function of adjustment gain: (1+R1/R2) or VO/VREF. Therefore a 5V adjustment decreases
ripple rejection by a factor of four (−12dB); Output ripple increases as adjustment voltage increases.
However, the adjustable version allows this degradation of ripple rejection to be compensated. The adjust
terminal can be bypassed to ground with a capacitor (CADJ). The impedance of the CADJ should be equal to or
less than R1 at the desired ripple frequency. This bypass capacitor prevents ripple from being amplified as the
output voltage is increased.
1/(2π*fRIPPLE*CADJ) ≤ R1
LOAD REGULATION
The LM1086 regulates the voltage that appears between its output and ground pins, or between its output and
adjust pins. In some cases, line resistances can introduce errors to the voltage across the load. To obtain the
best load regulation, a few precautions are needed.
Figure 20 shows a typical application using a fixed output regulator. Rt1 and Rt2 are the line resistances. VLOAD
is less than the VOUT by the sum of the voltage drops along the line resistances. In this case, the load regulation
seen at the RLOAD would be degraded from the data sheet specification. To improve this, the load should be tied
directly to the output terminal on the positive side and directly tied to the ground terminal on the negative side.
Figure 20. Typical Application using Fixed Output Regulator
http://www.hgsemi.com.cn

2018 JUN
LM1086
When the adjustable regulator is used (Figure 21), the best performance is obtained with the positive side of the
resistor R1 tied directly to the output terminal of the regulator rather than near the load. This eliminates line drops
from appearing effectively in series with the reference and degrading regulation. For example, a 5V regulator with
0.05Ω resistance between the regulator and load will have a load regulation due to line resistance of 0.05Ω x IL.
If R1 (=125Ω) is connected near the load the effective line resistance will be 0.05Ω (1 + R2/R1) or in this case, it
is 4 times worse. In addition, the ground side of the resistor R2 can be returned near the ground of the load to
provide remote ground sensing and improve load regulation.
Figure 21. Best Load Regulation using Adjustable Output Regulator
PROTECTION DIODES
Under normal operation, the LM1086 regulator does not need any protection diode. With the adjustable device,
the internal resistance between the adjustment and output terminals limits the current. No diode is needed to
divert the current around the regulator even with a capacitor on the adjustment terminal. The adjust pin can take
a transient signal of ±25V with respect to the output voltage without damaging the device.
When an output capacitor is connected to a regulator and the input is shorted, the output capacitor will discharge
into the output of the regulator. The discharge current depends on the value of the capacitor, the output voltage
of the regulator, and rate of decrease of VIN. In the LM1086 regulator, the internal diode between the output and
input pins can withstand microsecond surge currents of 10A to 20A. With an extremely large output capacitor
(≥1000 µf), and with input instantaneously shorted to ground, the regulator could be damaged. In this case, an
external diode is recommended between the output and input pins to protect the regulator, shown in Figure 22.

LM1086
OVERLOAD RECOVERY
Overload recovery refers to regulator's ability to recover from a short circuited output. A key factor in the recovery
process is the current limiting used to protect the output from drawing too much power. The current limiting circuit
reduces the output current as the input to output differential increases. Refer to short circuit curve in the Typical
Performance Characteristics section.
During normal start-up, the input to output differential is small since the output follows the input. But, if the output
is shorted, then the recovery involves a large input to output differential. Sometimes during this condition the
current limiting circuit is slow in recovering. If the limited current is too low to develop a voltage at the output, the
voltage will stabilize at a lower level. Under these conditions it may be necessary to recycle the power of the
regulator in order to get the smaller differential voltage and thus adequate start up conditions. Refer to Typical
Performance Characteristics section for the short circuit current vs. input differential voltage.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
ICs heats up when in operation, and power consumption is one factor in how hot it gets. The other factor is how
well the heat is dissipated. Heat dissipation is predictable by knowing the thermal resistance between the IC and
ambient (θJA). Thermal resistance has units of temperature per power (C/W). The higher the thermal resistance,
the hotter the IC.
The LM1086 specifies the thermal resistance for each package as junction to case (θJC). In order to get the total
resistance to ambient (θJA), two other thermal resistance must be added, one for case to heat-sink (θCH) and one
for heatsink to ambient (θHA). The junction temperature can be predicted as follows:
TJ = TA + PD (θJC + θCH + θHA) = TA + PD θJA
where
•
•
•
TJ is junction temperature
TA is ambient temperature
PD is the power consumption of the device
Device power consumption is calculated as follows:
IIN = IL + IG
PD = (VIN−VOUT) IL + VINIG
Figure 23 shows the voltages and currents which are present in the circuit.
Figure 23. Power Dissipation Diagram
Once the device power is determined, the maximum allowable (θJA(max)) is calculated as:
θJA (max) = TR(max)/PD = TJ(max) − TA(max))/PD
The LM1086 has different temperature specifications for two different sections of the IC: the control section and
the output section. The Electrical Characteristics table shows the junction to case thermal resistances for each of
these sections, while the maximum junction temperatures (TJ(max)) for each section is listed in the Absolute
Maximum section of the datasheet. TJ(max) is 125°C for the control section, while TJ(max) is 150°C for the output
section.
θJA
(max)
should be calculated separately for each section as follows:
θJA (max, CONTROL SECTION) = (125°C for TA(max))/PD
θJA (max, OUTPUT SECTION) = (150°C for TA(max))/PD
http://www.hgsemi.com.cn

2018 JUN
LM1086
The required heat sink is determined by calculating its required thermal resistance (θHA(max)).
θHA(max) = θJA(max) − (θJC + θCH)
θHA (max) should be calculated twice as follows:
θHA (max) = θJA(max, CONTROL SECTION) - (θJC (CONTROL SECTION) + θCH)
θHA (max)= θJA(max, OUTPUT SECTION) - (θJC(OUTPUT SECTION) + θCH)
If thermal compound is used, θCH can be estimated at 0.2 C/W. If the case is soldered to the heat sink, then a
θCH can be estimated as 0 C/W.
After, θHA (max) is calculated for each section, choose the lower of the two θHA
appropriate heat sink.
