ONSEMI CS5253B

CS5253B−1
3.0 A LDO 5−Pin Adjustable
Linear Regulator with
Remote Sense Applications
This new very low dropout linear regulator reduces total power
dissipation in the application. To achieve very low dropout, the
internal pass transistor is powered separately from the control
circuitry. Furthermore, with the control and power inputs tied together,
this device can be used in single supply configuration and still offer a
better dropout voltage than conventional PNP − NPN based LDO
regulators. In this mode the dropout is determined by the minimum
control voltage.
The CS5253B−1 is offered in a five−terminal D2PAK−5 package,
which allows for the implementation of a remote−sense pin permitting
very accurate regulation of output voltage directly at the load, where it
counts, rather than at the regulator. This remote sensing feature
virtually eliminates output voltage variations due to load changes and
resistive voltage drops. Typical load regulation measured at the sense
pin is less than 1.0 mV for an output voltage of 2.5 V with a load step
of 10 mA to 3.0 A.
The CS5253B−1 has a very fast transient loop response which can
be adjusted using a small capacitor on the Adjust pin.
Internal protection circuitry provides for “bust−proof” operation,
similar to three−terminal regulators. This circuitry, which includes
overcurrent, short circuit, and overtemperature protection will
self protect the regulator under all fault conditions.
The CS5253B−1 is ideal for generating a 2.5 V supply to power
graphics controllers used on VGA cards. Its remote sense and low
value capacitance requirements make this a low cost, high
performance solution. The CS5253B−1 is optimized from the
CS5253−1 to allow a lower value of output capacitor to be used at the
expense of a slower transient response.

output voltage is selected to meet the minimum load current requirement.

ratio. The minimum value is equal to the quiescent current of the device.

Function
This Kelvin sense pin allows for remote sensing of the output voltage at the load for improved regulation. It is
internally connected to the positive input of the voltage sensing error amplifier.
This is the supply voltage for the regulator control circuitry. For the device to regulate, this voltage should be between 0.9 V and 1.3 V (depending on the output current) greater than the output voltage. The control pin current
will be about 1.0% of the output current.
This is the power input voltage. This pin is physically connected to the collector of the power pass transistor. For
the device to regulate, this voltage should be between 0.1 V and 0.6 V greater than the output voltage depending
on the output current. The output load current of 3.0 A is supplied through this pin.

APPLICATIONS NOTES
THEORY OF OPERATION
limited to about three milliamperes until the power input
voltage comes up. If the power input voltage comes up first,
the output will not turn on at all until the control voltage
comes up. The output can never come up unregulated.
The CS5253B−1 can also be used as a single supply device
with the control and power inputs tied together. In this mode,
the dropout will be determined by the minimum control
voltage.
The CS5253B−1 linear regulator provides adjustable
voltages from 1.25 V to 5.0 V at currents up to 3.0 A. The
regulator is protected against short circuits, and includes a
thermal shutdown circuit with hysteresis. The output, which
is current limited, consists of a PNP−NPN transistor pair and
requires an output capacitor for stability. A detailed
procedure for selecting this capacitor is included in the
Stability Considerations section.
Output Voltage Sensing
VPOWER Function
The CS5253B−1 five terminal linear regulator includes a
dedicated VSENSE function. This allows for true Kelvin
sensing of the output voltage. This feature can virtually
eliminate errors in the output voltage due to load regulation.
Regulation will be optimized at the point where the sense pin
is tied to the output.
The CS5253B−1 utilizes a two supply approach to
maximize efficiency. The collector of the power device is
brought out to the VPOWER pin to minimize internal power
dissipation under high current loads. VCONTROL provides
for the control circuitry and the drive for the output NPN
transistor. VCONTROL should be at least 1.0 V greater than
the output voltage. Special care has been taken to ensure that
there are no supply sequencing problems. The output
voltage will not turn on until both supplies are operating. If
the control voltage comes up first, the output current will be

of the regulator. This will establish the stability of the part.
This capacitor−divider resistor connection may then be
connected to ground remotely at the load, giving the ground
portion remote sense operation.
The VSENSE line can then be tied remotely at the load
connection, giving the feedback remote sense operation.
The remote sense lines should be Kelvin connected so as to
eliminate the effect of load current voltage drop. An optional
bypass capacitor may be used at the load to reduce the effect
of load variations and spikes.
Remote Sense
Remote sense operation can be easily obtained with the
CS5253B−1 but some care must be paid to the layout and
positioning of the filter capacitors around the part. The
ground side of the input capacitors on the +5.0 V and +3.3 V
lines and the local VOUT−to−ground local output capacitor
on the IC output must be tied close to the ground connected
resistor voltage divider feedback network. The top resistor
of the divider must be connected directly to the VSENSE pin

should be taken into account if precise adjustment of VOUT
is necessary. The output voltage is set according to the
formula:
This LDO adjustable regulator has an output voltage
range of 1.25 V to 5.0 V. An external resistor divider sets the
output voltage as shown in Figure 20. The regulator’s
voltage sensing error amplifier maintains a fixed 1.25 V
reference between the output pin and the adjust pin.
VOUT 1.25 V The term IADJ × R2 represents the error added by the
adjust pin current. R1 is chosen so that the minimum load
current is at least 10 mA. R1 and R2 should be of the same
composition for best tracking overtemperature.
While not required, a bypass capacitor connected between
the adjust pin and ground will improve transient response
and ripple rejection. A 0.1 F tantalum capacitor is
recommended for “first cut” design. Value and type may be
varied to optimize performance vs. price.

R2
The CS5253B−1 linear regulator has an absolute
maximum specification of 6.0 V for the voltage difference
between VPOWER and VOUT. However, the IC may be used
to regulate voltages in excess of 6.0 V. The two main
considerations in such a design are the sequencing of power
supplies and short circuit capability.
Power supply sequencing should be such that the
VCONTROL supply is brought up coincidentally with or
before the VPOWER supply. This allows the IC to begin
charging the output capacitor as soon as the VPOWER to
VOUT differential is large enough that the pass transistor
conducts. As VPOWER increases, the pass transistor will
remain in dropout, and current is passed to the load until
Figure 20. Typical Application Schematic. The
Resistor Divider Sets VOUT, With the Internal
1.260 V Reference Dropped Across R1.
A resistor divider network R1 and R2 causes a fixed
current to flow to ground. This current creates a voltage
across R2 that adds to the 1.25 V across R1 and sets the
overall output voltage. The adjust pin current (typically
50 A) also flows through R2 and adds a small error that

capacitors being less expensive in general, but varying more
in capacitor value and ESR overtemperature.
The CS5253B−1 requires an output capacitor to guarantee
loop stability. The Stability vs ESR graph in the typical
performance section shows the minimum ESR needed to
guarantee stability, but under ideal conditions. These
include: having VOUT connected to VSENSE directly at the
IC pins; the compensation capacitor located right at the pins
with a minimum lead length; the adjust feedback resistor
divider ground, (bottom of R2 in Figure 20), connected right
at the capacitor ground; and with power supply decoupling
capacitors located close to the IC pins. The actual
performance will vary greatly with board layout for each
application. In particular, the use of the remote sensing
feature will require a larger capacitor with less ESR. For
most applications, a minimum of 33 F tantalum or 150 F
aluminum electrolytic, with an ESR less than 1.0 overtemperature, is recommended. Larger capacitors and
lower ESR will improve stability.
The load transient response, during the time it takes the
regulator to respond, is also determined by the output
capacitor. For large changes in load current, the ESR of the
output capacitor causes an immediate drop in output voltage
given by:
VOUT is in regulation. Further increase in the supply voltage
brings the pass transistor out of dropout. In this manner, any
output voltage less than 13 V may be regulated, provided the
VPOWER to VOUT differential is less than 6.0 V. In the case
where VCONTROL and VPOWER are shorted, there is no
theoretical limit to the regulated voltage as long as the
VPOWER to VOUT differential of 6.0 V is not exceeded.
There is a possibility of damaging the IC when VPOWER
− VOUT is greater than 6.0 V if a short circuit occurs. Short
circuit conditions will result in the immediate operation of
the pass transistor outside of its safe operating area.
Overvoltage stresses will then cause destruction of the pass
transistor before overcurrent or thermal shutdown circuitry
can become active. Additional circuitry may be required to
clamp the VPOWER to VOUT differential to less than 6.0 V
if fail safe operation is required. One possible clamp circuit
is illustrated in Figure 21; however, the design of clamp
circuitry must be done on an application by application
basis. Care must be taken to ensure the clamp actually
protects the design. Components used in the clamp design
must be able to withstand the short circuit condition
indefinitely while protecting the IC.

where T is the time for the regulation loop to begin to
respond. The very fast transient response time of the
CS5253B−1 allows the ESR effect to dominate. For
microprocessor applications, it is customary to use an output
capacitor network consisting of several tantalum and
ceramic capacitors in parallel. This reduces the overall ESR
and reduces the instantaneous output voltage drop under
transient load conditions. The output capacitor network
should be as close to the load as possible for the best transient
response.

Protection Diodes
When large external capacitors are used with a linear
regulator, it is sometimes necessary to add protection diodes.
If the input voltage of the regulator gets 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, and the rate at which VCONTROL drops. In
the CS5253B−1 regulator, the discharge path is through a
large junction and protection diodes are not usually needed.
If the regulator is used with large values of output
Stability Considerations
The output compensation capacitor helps determine three
main characteristics of a linear regulator: loop stability,

Heatsink Requirements
capacitance and the input voltage is instantaneously shorted
to ground, damage can occur. In this case, a diode connected
as shown in Figure 22 is recommended.
VCONTROL
High power regulators such as the CS5253B−1 usually
operate at high junction temperatures. Therefore, it is
important to calculate the power dissipation and junction
temperatures accurately to ensure that an adequate heatsink
is used. Since the package tab is connected to VOUT on the
CS5253B−1, electrical isolation may be required for some
applications. Also, as with all high power packages, thermal
compound in necessary to ensure proper heat flow. For
added safety, this high current LDO includes an internal
thermal shutdown circuit
The thermal characteristics of an IC depend on the
following four factors: junction temperature, ambient
temperature, die power dissipation, and the thermal
resistance from the die junction to ambient air. The
maximum junction temperature can be determined by:

Figure 22. Diode Protection Circuit
The maximum ambient temperature and the power
dissipation are determined by the design while the
maximum junction temperature and the thermal resistance
depend on the manufacturer and the package type. The
maximum power dissipation for a regulator is:
A rule of thumb useful in determining if a protection diode
is required is to solve for current:
ICV
T
PD(max) (VIN(max) VOUT(min))IOUT(max)
VIN(max) IIN(max)
where:
I is the current flow out of the load capacitance when
VCONTROL is shorted,
C is the value of load capacitance
V is the output voltage, and
T is the time duration required for VCONTROL to transition
from high to being shorted.
If the calculated current is greater than or equal to the
typical short circuit current value provided in the
specifications, serious thought should be given to the use of
a protection diode.
A heatsink effectively increases the surface area of the
package to improve the flow of heat away from the IC and
into the surrounding air. Each material in the heat flow path
between the IC and the outside environment has a thermal
resistance which is measured in degrees per watt. Like series
electrical resistances, these thermal resistances are summed
to determine the total thermal resistance between the die
junction and the surrounding air, RJA. This total thermal
resistance is comprised of three components. These resistive
terms are measured from junction−to−case (RJC),
case−to−heatsink (RCS), and heatsink−to−ambient air
(RSA). The equation is:
Current Limit
The internal current limit circuit limits the output current
under excessive load conditions.
RJA RJC RCS RSA
Short Circuit Protection
The value for RQJC is 2.5°C/watt for the CS5253B−1 in
the D2PAK−5 package. For a high current regulator such as
the CS5253B−1 the majority of heat is generated in the
power transistor section. The value for RSA depends on the
heatsink type, while the RCS depends on factors such as
package type, heatsink interface (is an insulator and thermal
grease used?), and the contact area between the heatsink and
the package. Once these calculations are complete, the
maximum permissible value of RJA can be calculated and
the proper heatsink selected. For further discussion on
heatsink selection, see our application note “Thermal
Management,” document number AND8036/D.
The device includes short circuit protection circuitry that
clamps the output current at approximately 500 mA less than
its current limit value. This provides for a current foldback
function, which reduces power dissipation under a direct
shorted load.
Thermal Shutdown
The thermal shutdown circuitry is guaranteed by design to
activate above a die junction temperature of approximately
150°C and to shut down the regulator output. This circuitry
has 25°C of typical hysteresis, thereby allowing the
regulator to recover from a thermal fault automatically.
