GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP172 is a low voltage input, low quiescent current, lowdropout (LDO) linear regulator that operates from 1.6 V to 3.6 V
and provides up to 300 mA of output current. The low 50 mV
dropout voltage at 300 mA load improves efficiency and allows
operation over a wide input voltage range. The low 23 μA of
quiescent current at no load makes the ADP172 ideal for
battery-operated portable equipment.
commodity-type LDOs, the ADP172 provides 20 dB to 40 dB
better power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) at 100 kHz, making the
ADP172 an ideal power source for analog-to-digital converter
(ADC) mixed-signal processor systems and allowing use of
smaller size bypass capacitors. In addition, low output noise
performance without the need for an additional bypass capacitor
further reduces printed circuit board (PCB) component count.
The ADP172 is capable of 31 fixed-output voltage options, ranging
from 0.8 V to 3.0 V. The ADP172 is optimized for stable operation
with small 1 μF ceramic output capacitors. Ideal for powering
digital processors, the ADP172 exhibits good transient performance and occupies minimal board space. Compared with
Short-circuit protection and thermal overload protection circuits
prevent damage in adverse conditions. The ADP172 is available
in a tiny 4-ball, 0.5 mm pitch WLCSP for the smallest footprint
solution to meet a variety of portable power applications.

The current from the external resistor divider network in the case of adjustable voltage output (as with the ADP172) should be subtracted from the ground current measured.
Based on an end-point calculation using 1 mA and 300 mA loads. See Figure 4 for typical load regulation performance for loads less than 1 mA.
Applies only for output voltages above 1.6 V. Dropout voltage is defined as the input-to-output voltage differential when the input voltage is set to the nominal
output voltage.

Start-up time is defined as the time between the rising edge of EN and VOUT at 90% of its nominal value.
5
Current-limit threshold is defined as the current at which the output voltage drops to 90% of the specified typical value. For example, the current limit for a 3.0 V
output voltage is defined as the current that causes the output voltage to drop to 90% of 3.0 V, or 2.7 V.

Stresses above those listed under absolute maximum ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only and functional operation of the device at these or
any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
THERMAL DATA
Absolute maximum ratings apply only individually, not in
combination. The ADP172 can be damaged when the junction
temperature limits are exceeded. Monitoring ambient
temperature does not guarantee that TJ is within the specified
temperature limits. In applications with high power dissipation
and poor thermal resistance, the maximum ambient temperature
may have to be derated.
In applications with moderate power dissipation and low PCB
thermal resistance, the maximum ambient temperature can
exceed the maximum limit as long as the junction temperature
is within specification limits. The junction temperature (TJ) of
the device is dependent on the ambient temperature (TA), the
power dissipation of the device (PD), and the junction-toambient thermal resistance of the package (θJA).
Maximum junction temperature (TJ) is calculated from the
ambient temperature (TA) and power dissipation (PD) using the
following formula:
the application and board layout. In applications where high
maximum power dissipation exists, close attention to thermal
board design is required. The value of θJA may vary, depending
on PCB material, layout, and environmental conditions. The
specified values of θJA are based on a 4-layer, 4 in. × 3 in. PCB.
Refer to JESD51-7 for detailed information regarding board
construction.
ΨJB is the junction-to-board thermal characterization parameter
with units of °C/W. The ΨJB of the package is based on modeling
and calculation using a 4-layer board. The Guidelines for Reporting
and Using Electronic Package Thermal Information: JESD51-12
states that thermal characterization parameters are not the same
as thermal resistances. ΨJB measures the component power flowing
through multiple thermal paths rather than a single path as in
thermal resistance, θJB. Therefore, ΨJB thermal paths include
convection from the top of the package as well as radiation from
the package—factors that make ΨJB more useful in real-world
applications. Maximum junction temperature (TJ) is calculated
from the board temperature (TB) and power dissipation (PD)
using the formula
TJ = TB + (PD × ΨJB)
Refer to JESD51-8 and JESD51-12 for more detailed information
about ΨJB.
THERMAL RESISTANCE
θJA and ΨJB are specified for the worst-case conditions, that is, a
device soldered in a circuit board for surface-mount packages.

regulator that operates from 1.6 V to 3.6 V and can provide up to
300 mA of output current. Drawing a low 170 μA of quiescent
current (typical) at full load makes the ADP172 ideal for batteryoperated portable equipment. Shutdown current consumption is
typically 100 nA.
Optimized for use with small 1 μF ceramic capacitors, the
ADP172 provides excellent transient performance.

The ADP172 uses the EN pin to enable and disable the VOUT
pin under normal operating conditions. When EN is high, VOUT
turns on; when EN is low, VOUT turns off. For automatic
startup, EN can be tied to VIN.

Internally, the ADP172 consists of a reference, an error
amplifier, a feedback voltage divider, and a PMOS pass transistor.
Output current is delivered via the PMOS pass device, which is
controlled by the error amplifier. The error amplifier compares
the reference voltage with the feedback voltage from the output
and amplifies the difference. If the feedback voltage is lower than
the reference voltage, the gate of the PMOS device is pulled lower,
allowing more current to pass and increasing the output voltage.
If the feedback voltage is higher than the reference voltage, the
gate of the PMOS device is pulled higher, allowing less current
to pass and decreasing the output voltage.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
CAPACITOR SELECTION
Input Bypass Capacitor
Output Capacitor
Connecting a 1 μF capacitor from VIN to GND reduces the
circuit sensitivity to the printed circuit board (PCB) layout,
especially when long input traces or high source impedance
is encountered. If greater than 1 μF of output capacitance is
required, the input capacitor should be increased to match it.
The ADP172 is designed for operation with small, space-saving
ceramic capacitors but functions with most commonly used
capacitors as long as care is taken with the effective series
resistance (ESR) value. The ESR of the output capacitor affects
the stability of the LDO control loop. A minimum of 1 μF
capacitance with an ESR of 1 Ω or less is recommended to
ensure the stability of the ADP172. The transient response to
changes in load current is also affected by output capacitance.
Using a larger value of output capacitance improves the
transient response of the ADP172 to large changes in load
current. Figure 24 and Figure 25 show the transient responses
for output capacitance values of 1 μF and 4.7 μF, respectively.

Any good quality ceramic capacitor can be used with the ADP172,
as long as it meets the minimum capacitance and maximum ESR
requirements. Ceramic capacitors are manufactured with a
variety of dielectrics, each with different behavior over temperature and applied voltage. Capacitors must have a dielectric
adequate to ensure the minimum capacitance over the necessary
temperature range and dc bias conditions. An X5R or X7R
dielectric with a voltage rating of 6.3 V or 10 V is recommended.
The Y5V and Z5U dielectrics are not recommended due to their
poor temperature and dc bias characteristics.
Figure 26 depicts the capacitance vs. bias voltage characteristics
of a 0402, 1 μF, 10 V X5R capacitor. The variance of a capacitor
is strongly influenced by the capacitor size and voltage rating. In
general, a capacitor in a larger package or with a higher voltage
rating exhibits less capacitance variance over bias voltage. The
temperature variation of the X5R dielectric is about ±15% over
the −40°C to +85°C temperature range and is not a function of
package or voltage rating.

Use Equation 1 to determine the worst-case capacitance,
accounting for capacitor variation over temperature, component
tolerance, and voltage.
CEFF = CBIAS × (1 − TEMPCO) × (1 − TOL)
where:
CBIAS is the effective capacitance at the operating voltage.
TEMPCO is the worst-case capacitor temperature coefficient.
TOL is the worst-case component tolerance.

ADP172
In this example, the worst-case temperature coefficient
(TEMPCO) over −40°C to +85°C is assumed to be 15% for an
X5R dielectric. The tolerance of the capacitor (TOL) is assumed
to be 10%, and CBIAS is 0.94 μF at 1.8 V, as shown in Figure 26.
The EN pin active/inactive thresholds are derived from the VIN
voltage. Therefore, these thresholds vary with changing input
voltage. Figure 28 shows typical EN active/inactive thresholds
when the input voltage varies from 1.6 V to 3.6 V.

The ADP172 has an internal undervoltage lockout circuit that
disables all inputs and the output when the input voltage is less
than approximately 1.2 V. This ensures that the ADP172 inputs
and the output behave in a predictable manner during power-up.

Figure 28. Typical EN Pin Thresholds vs. Input Voltage
The ADP172 uses the EN pin to enable and disable the VOUT
pin under normal operating conditions. As shown in Figure 27,
when a rising voltage on EN crosses the active threshold, VOUT
turns on. When a falling voltage on EN crosses the inactive
threshold, VOUT turns off.

The ADP172 uses an internal soft start to limit the inrush
current when the output is enabled. The start-up time for the
1.8 V option is approximately 120 μs from the time the EN
active threshold is crossed to when the output reaches 90%
of its final value. As shown in Figure 29, the start-up time is
dependent on the output voltage setting.

CURRENT LIMIT AND THERMAL OVERLOAD
PROTECTION
The junction temperature of the ADP172 can be calculated
from the following equation:
Consider the case where a hard short from VOUT to GND occurs.
At first, the ADP172 limits the current so that only 450 mA is
conducted into the short. If self-heating of the junction is great
enough to cause its temperature to rise above 150°C, thermal
shutdown activates, turning off the output and reducing the
output current to 0. As the junction temperature cools and
drops below 135°C, the output turns on and conducts 450 mA
into the short, again causing the junction temperature to rise
above 150°C. This thermal oscillation between 135°C and 150°C
causes a current oscillation between 450 mA and 0 mA, which
continues as long as the short remains at the output.
Current and thermal limit protections are intended to protect
the device against accidental overload conditions.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
To guarantee reliable operation, the junction temperature of the
ADP172 must not exceed 125°C. To ensure that the junction temperature stays below this maximum value, the user must be aware
of the parameters that contribute to junction temperature changes.
These parameters include ambient temperature, power
dissipation in the power device, and thermal resistances between
the junction and ambient air (θJA). The θJA number is dependent
on the package assembly compounds used and the amount of
copper to which the GND pin of the package is soldered on the
PCB. Table 6 shows typical θJA values of the 4-ball WLCSP package
for various PCB copper sizes.
where:
TA is the ambient temperature.
PD is the power dissipation in the die, given by
PD = [(VIN − VOUT) × ILOAD] + (VIN × IGND)
1
(3)
where:
ILOAD is the load current.
IGND is the ground current.
VIN and VOUT are input and output voltages, respectively.
Power dissipation due to ground current is quite small and can
be ignored. Therefore, the junction temperature equation
simplifies to the following:
TJ = TA + {[(VIN − VOUT) × ILOAD] × θJA}
(4)
As shown in Equation 4, for a given ambient temperature, inputto-output voltage differential, and continuous load current,
there exists a minimum copper size requirement for the PCB to
ensure that the junction temperature does not rise above 125°C.
Figure 30 to Figure 35 show junction temperature calculations
for different ambient temperatures, load currents, VIN to VOUT
differentials, and areas of PCB copper.

Thermal overload protection is included, which limits the junction
temperature to a maximum of 150°C (typical). Under extreme
conditions (that is, high ambient temperature and power dissipation), when the junction temperature starts to rise above 150°C,
the output is turned off, reducing the output current to 0. When
the junction temperature drops below 135°C, the output is turned
on again, and output current is restored to its nominal value.
TJ = TA + (PD × θJA)
JUNCTION TEMPERATURE, TJ (°C)
The ADP172 is protected against damage due to excessive
power dissipation by current and thermal overload protection
circuits. The ADP172 is designed to limit the current when the
output load reaches 450 mA (typical). When the output load
exceeds 450 mA, the output voltage is reduced to maintain a
constant current limit.

CONSIDERATIONS
Heat dissipation from the package can be improved by
increasing the amount of copper attached to the pins of the
ADP172. However, as can be seen from Table 6, a point of
diminishing returns is eventually reached, beyond which an
increase in the copper size does not yield significant heat
dissipation benefits.
06111-037
Place the input capacitor as close as possible to the VIN and
GND pins. Place the output capacitor as close as possible to the
VOUT and GND pins. Use of 0402 or 0603 size capacitors and
resistors achieves the smallest possible footprint solution for
boards on which area is limited.
