FAN2558/FAN2559
Functional Description
Utilizing BiCMOS technology, the FAN2525/FAN2559
product family is optimized for use in compact battery powered systems. These LDOs offer a unique combination of
high ripple rejection, low noise, low power consumption,
high tolerance for a variety of output capacitors, and less
than 1µA “OFF” current. In the circuit, a differential current
sense amplifier controls a series-pass P-Channel MOSFET to
achieve high ripple rejection. A separate error amplifier compares the load voltage at the output with an onboard trimmed
low voltage bandgap reference for output regulation.
Thermal shutdown and current limit circuits protect the
device under extreme conditions. When the device temperature reaches 150°C, the output is disabled. When the device
cools down by 10°C, it is re-enabled. The user can shut down
the device using the Enable control pin at any time. The current limit circuit is trimmed, which leads to consistent power
on /enable delays, and provides safe short circuit current
densities even in narrow traces of the PCB.
A carefully optimized control loop accommodates a wide
range of ESR values in the output bypass capacitor, allowing
the user to optimize space, cost, and performance requirements.
An Enable pin shuts down the regulator output to conserve
power, reducing supply current to less than 1µA.
The fixed-voltage FAN2559 has a noise bypass pin. Power
Good is available as a diagnostic function to indicate that the
output voltage has reduced within 5% of the nominal value.
The six pin adjustable-voltage version utilizes pin 5 to connect to an external voltage divider which feeds back to the
regulator error amplifier, thus setting the output voltage to
the desired value.
Applications Information
External Capacitors – Selection
The FAN2558/FAN2559 gives the user the flexibility to utilize a wide variety of capacitors compared to other LDOs.
An innovative design approach offers significantly reduced
sensitivity to ESR, which degrades regulator loop stability in
older designs. While the improvements featured in the
FAN2558/FAN2559 family greatly simplify the design task,
6
PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
capacitor quality still must be considered if the designer is to
achieve optimal circuit performance. In general, ceramic
capacitors offer superior ESR performance, and a smaller
case size than tantalum capacitors.
Input Capacitor
An input capacitor of 2.2µF (nominal value) or greater,
connected between the Input pin and Ground, placed in close
proximity to the device, will improve transient response and
ripple rejection. Higher values will further improve ripple
rejection and transient response. An input capacitor is recommended when the input source, either a battery or a regulated AC voltage, is located far from the device. Any good
quality ceramic, tantalum, or metal film capacitor will give
acceptable performance; however, in extreme cases capacitor
surge current ratings may have to be considered.
Output Capacitor
An output capacitor is required to maintain regulator loop
stability. Stable operation will be achieved with a wide variety of capacitors with ESR values ranging from 0mΩ up to
400mΩ. Multilayer ceramic, tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors may be used. A nominal value of at least 1µF
is recommended. Note that the choice of output capacitor
affects load transient response, ripple rejection, and it has a
slight effect on noise performance as well.
An internal resistor of approximately 100Ω is connected
between VOUT and GND in shutdown mode, to discharge the
output capacitor at a faster rate.
Bypass Capacitor (FAN2559 Only)
In the fixed-voltage configuration, connecting a capacitor
between the bypass pin and ground can significantly reduce
output noise. Values ranging from 0pF to 47nF can be used,
depending on the sensitivity to output noise in the application.
At the high-impedance Bypass pin, care must be taken in the
PCB layout to minimize noise pickup, and capacitors must
be selected to minimize current loading (leakage). Noise
pickup from external sources can be considerable. Leakage
currents into the Bypass pin will directly affect regulator
accuracy and should be kept as low as possible; thus, highquality ceramic and film types are recommended for their
low leakage characteristics. Cost-sensitive applications not
concerned with noise can omit this capacitor.

PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
Control Functions
Enable Pin
Connecting 2V or greater to the Enable pin will enable the
output, while 0.4V or less will disable it while reducing the
quiescent current consumption to less than 1µA. If this shutdown function is not needed, the pin can simply be connected permanently to the VIN pin. Allowing this pin to float
will cause erratic operation.
Error Flag (Power Good)
Fault conditions such as input voltage dropout (low VIN),
overheating, or overloading (excessive output current), will
set an error flag. The PG pin which is an open-drain output,
will go LOW when VOUT is less than 95% or the specified
output voltage. When the voltage at VOUT is greater than
95% of the specified output voltage, the PG pin is HIGH. A
logic pull-up resistor of 47KΩ is recommended at this output. The pin can be left disconnected if unused.
Thermal Protection
The FAN2558/FAN2559 is designed to supply high peak
output currents for brief periods, however sustained excessive output load at high input - output voltage difference will
increase the device’s temperature and exceed maximum ratings due to power dissipation. During output overload conditions, when the die temperature exceeds the shutdown limit
temperature of 150°C, an onboard thermal protection will
disable the output until the temperature drops approximately
10°C below the limit, at which point the output is re-enabled.
During a thermal shutdown, the user may assert the powerdown function at the Enable pin, reducing power consumption to a minimum.
Thermal Characteristics
The FAN2558/FAN2559 is designed to supply 180mA at the
specified output voltage with an operating die (junction)
temperature of up to 125°C. Once the power dissipation and
thermal resistance is known, the maximum junction temperature of the device can be calculated. While the power dissipation is calculated from known electrical parameters, the
actual thermal resistance depends on the thermal characteristics of the SOT23-5 surface-mount package and the surrounding PC board copper to which it is mounted.
The power dissipation is equal to the product of the input-tooutput voltage differential and the output current plus the
ground current multiplied by the input voltage,
or:
P D = ( V IN – V OUT ) × I OUT + V IN × I GND
REV. 1.0.4 3/15/04
FAN2558/FAN2559
The ground pin current IGND can be found in the charts
provided in the Electrical Characteristics section.
The relationship describing the thermal behavior of the
package is:
 T J ( max ) – T A 
P D ( max ) =  ------------------------------- 
θ JA


where TJ(max) is the maximum allowable junction temperature of the die, which is 125°C, and TA is the ambient operating temperature. θJA is dependent on the surrounding PC
board layout and can be empirically obtained. While the θJC
(junction-to-case) of the SOT23-5 package is specified at
130°C /W, the θJA of the minimum PWB footprint will be at
least 235°C /W. This can be improved by providing a heat
sink of surrounding copper ground on the PWB. Depending
on the size of the copper area, the resulting θJA can range
from approximately 180°C /W for one square inch to nearly
130°C /W for 4 square inches. The addition of backside copper with through-holes, stiffeners, and other enhancements
can also aid in reducing thermal resistance. The heat contributed by the dissipation of other devices located nearby must
be included in the design considerations. Once the limiting
parameters in these two relationships have been determined,
the design can be modified to ensure that the device remains
within specified operating conditions. If overload conditions
are not considered, it is possible for the device to enter a
thermal cycling loop, in which the circuit enters a shutdown
condition, cools, re-enables, and then again overheats and
shuts down repeatedly due to an unmanaged fault condition.
Adjustable Version
The FAN2558ADJ includes an input pin ADJ which allows
the user to select an output voltage ranging from 1V to near
VIN, using an external resistor divider. The voltage VADJ presented to the ADJ pin is fed to the onboard error amplifier
which adjusts the output voltage until VADJ is equal to the
onboard bandgap reference voltage of 1.00V(typ). The equation is:
R1
V OUT = 0.59V × 1 + -----R2
Since the bandgap reference voltage is trimmed, 1% initial
accuracy can be achieved. The total value of the resistor
chain should not exceed 250KOhm total to keep the error
amplifier biased during no-load conditions. Programming
output voltages very near VIN need to allow for the magnitude and variation of the dropout voltage VDO over load, supply, and temperature variations. Note that the low-leakage
FET input to the CMOS error amplifier induces no bias
current error to the calculation.

FAN2558/FAN2559
General PCB Layout Considerations
For optimum device performance, careful circuit layout and
grounding techniques must be used. Establishing a small
local ground, to which the GND pin, and the output and
bypass capacitors are connected, is recommended. The input
capacitor should be grounded to the main ground plane. The
quiet local ground is then routed back to the main ground
plane using feed through via. In general, the high-frequency
compensation components (input, bypass, and output capacitors) should be located as close to the device as possible.
Close proximity of the output capacitor is especially important to achieve optimum performance, especially during high
8
PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
load conditions. A large copper area in the local ground
serves as heat sink (as discussed above) when high power
dissipation significantly increases device temperature. Component-side copper provides significantly better thermal performance. Added feed through connecting the device side
ground plane to the back plane further reduces thermal resistance.
