DESCRIPTION
6
The UTC LC1111 is a low dropout linear regulator controller for
applications requiring high-current and ultra low dropout voltages.
The use of an external N-Channel MOSFET and provide an
adjustable output by using an external resistive divider.
An extremely accurate 0.8V (±2%) reference allows the
implementation of sub 1 V voltage supplies. The reference is
guaranteed over the complete supply and temperature ranges.
The UTC LC1111 integrates various functions. For example, a
Power-On-Reset (POR) circuit monitors VCC supply voltage to
prevent wrong operations; the function of Under-Voltage
Protection (UVP) protects the device from short circuit condition.
The soft-start of output voltage is adjustable by the external
capacitor on SS pin. Moreover, the UTC LC1111 can be enabled
by other power system; namely, holding the EN above 1.6V
enables output and pulling the EN under 0.4 disables output.

DESCRIPTION
Enable control pin. Pulling the EN high (VEN>1.6) enables the VOUT; forcing the EN
low (VEN<0.4V disables the VOUT. When re-enabled, the IC undergoes a new
soft-start process. The EN pin is pulled high internally, hence it can be left open if the
EN control is not used.
Ground pin of the circuitry. All voltage levels are measured with respect to this pin.
Voltage Feedback Pin. Connecting this pin to an external resistor divider receives the
feedback voltage of the regulator.
Connect this pin to a capacitor for soft-start.
This pin drives the gate of an external N-channel MOSFET for linear regulator.
Power input pin of the device. The voltage at this pin is monitored for
Power-On-Reset purpose.

LINEAR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Power-On-Reset (POR)
The UTC LC1111 monitors the VCC pin voltage (VCC) for power-on-reset function to prevent wrong operation.
The built-in POR circuit keeps the output shutting off until internal circuit is operating properly. Typical POR threshold
is 4.0V with 0.4V hysteresis.
Soft-Start
The UTC LC1111 provides an adjustable soft-start circuitry to control rise rate of the output voltage and limit the
current surge during start-up. The soft-start time is set with a capacitor from the SS pin to the ground. The capacitor
is charged to VP with a constant 4.5mA (typ.) current source.
Under-Voltage Protection (UVP)
The UTC LC1111 monitors the voltage on FB. When the voltage on FB falls below the under-voltage threshold,
the UVP circuit shuts off the output voltage immediately by pulling down DRV to 0V and latches UTC LC1111off,
requiring either a VCC POR or EN re-enable again to restart. The UTC LC1111 UVP is activated after VOUT voltage
has reached 90% POK threshold while the UTC LC1111 UVP is activated after VCC has been applied to VCC pin.
Enable Control
The UTC LC1111 has a dedicated enable pin (EN). A logic low signal applied to this pin shuts down the output.
Following a shutdown, a logic high signal re-enables the output through initiation of a new soft-start cycle. It’s not
necessary to use an external transistor to save cost.
Power-OK and Delay
The UTC LC1111 indicates the status of the output voltage by monitoring the feedback voltage (VFB) on FB pin.
As the VFB rises and reaches the rising Power-OK voltage threshold (VPOKTH), an internal delay function starts to
work. At the end of the delay time, the IC turns off the internal NMOS of the POK to indicate that the output is ok. As
the VFB falls and reaches the falling Power-OK voltage threshold, the IC turns on the NMOS of the POK (after a
debounce time of 5ms typical).
Output Voltage Regulation
The UTC LC1111 is a linear regulator controller. An external N-channel MOSFET should be connected to DRV
as the pass element. The output voltage set by the resistor divider is determined by:
R1
VOUT = 0.8 •(1+
)
R2
Where R1 is connected from VOUT to FB and R2 is connected from FB to GND.
