Negative Complement to LT1761 Family of
Positive LDOs
Other features of the LT1964 include low output noise.
With the addition of an external 0.01µF bypass capacitor,
output noise is reduced to 30µVRMS over a 10Hz to 100kHz
bandwidth. The LT1964 is capable of operating with small
capacitors and is stable with output capacitors as low as
1µF. Small ceramic capacitors can be used without the
necessary addition of ESR as is common with other
regulators. Internal protection circuitry includes reverse
output protection, current limiting, and thermal limiting.
The device is available with a fixed output voltage of –5V
and as an adjustable device with a –1.22V reference
voltage. The LT1964 regulators are available in a low
profile (1mm) ThinSOT package.

■
The LT®1964 is a micropower low noise, low dropout
negative regulator. The device is capable of supplying
200mA of output current with a dropout voltage of 340mV.
Low quiescent current (30µA operating and 3µA shutdown) makes the LT1964 an excellent choice for batterypowered applications. Quiescent current is well controlled
in dropout.

Input Reverse Leakage Current
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: The LT1964 (adjustable version) is tested and specified for these
conditions with the ADJ pin connected to the OUT pin.
Note 3: Operating conditions are limited by maximum junction
temperature. The regulated output voltage specification will not apply for
all possible combinations of input voltage and output current. When
operating at maximum input voltage, the output current range must be
limited. When operating at maximum output current, the input voltage
range must be limited.
Note 4: To satisfy requirements for minimum input voltage, the LT1964
(adjustable version) is tested and specified for these conditions with an
external resistor divider (two 249k resistors) for an output voltage of
–2.44V. The external resistor divider will add a 5µA DC load on the output.
Note 5: Dropout voltage is the minimum input to output voltage differential
needed to maintain regulation at a specified output current. In dropout, the
output voltage will be equal to: (VIN + VDROPOUT).
Note 6: GND pin current is tested with VIN = VOUT(NOMINAL) and a current
source load. This means the device is tested while operating in its dropout
region. This is the worst-case GND pin current. The GND pin current will
decrease slightly at higher input voltages.

Note 7: ADJ pin bias current flows out of the ADJ pin.
Note 8: Positive SHDN pin current flows into the SHDN pin. SHDN pin
current is included in the GND pin current specification.
Note 9: For input-to-output differential voltages greater than 7V, a 50µA
load is needed to maintain regulation.
Note 10: The LT1964E is guaranteed to meet performance specifications
from 0°C to 125°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 125°C operating
junction temperature range are assured by design, characterization and
correlation with statistical process controls.
Note 11: A parasitic diode exists internally on the LT1964 between the
OUT, ADJ and SHDN pins and the IN pin. The OUT, ADJ and SHDN pins
cannot be pulled more than 0.5V more negative than the IN pin during
fault conditions, and must remain at a voltage more positive than the IN
pin during operation.
Note 12: For the LT1964-BYP, this specification accounts for the operating
threshold of the SHDN pin, which is tied to the IN pin internally. For the
LT1964-SD, the SHDN threshold must be met to ensure device operation.
Note 13: Actual thermal resistance (θJA) junction to ambient will be a
function of board layout. Junction-to-case thermal resistance (θJC)
measured at Pin 2 is 60°C/W. See the Thermal Considerations section in
the Applications Information.

GND (Pin 1): Ground.
IN (Pin 2): Power is Supplied to the Device Through the
Input Pin. A bypass capacitor is required on this pin if the
device is more than six inches away from the main input
filter capacitor. In general, the output impedance of a
battery rises with frequency, so it is advisable to include a
bypass capacitor in battery-powered circuits. A bypass
capacitor in the range of 1µF to 10µF is sufficient.
BYP (Pin 3, Fixed/–BYP devices): The BYP Pin is used to
Bypass the Reference of the LT1964 to Achieve Low Noise
Performance from the Regulator. A small capacitor from
the output to this pin will bypass the reference to lower the
output voltage noise. A maximum value of 0.01µF can be
used for reducing output voltage noise to a typical 30µVRMS
over a 10Hz to 100kHz bandwidth. If not used, this pin
must be left unconnected.
SHDN (Pin 3/4, –SHDN/Fixed Devices): The SHDN Pin is
used to put the LT1964 into a Low Power Shutdown State.
The SHDN pin is referenced to the GND pin for regulator
control, allowing the LT1964 to be driven by either positive
or negative logic. The output of the LT1964 will be off when
the SHDN pin is pulled within ±0.8V of GND. Pulling the
SHDN pin more than –1.9V or +1.6V will turn the LT1964
on. The SHDN pin can be driven by 5V logic or open

collector logic with a pull-up resistor. The pull-up resistor
is required to supply the pull-up current of the open
collector gate, normally several microamperes, and the
SHDN pin current, typically 3µA out of the pin (for negative
logic) or 6µA into the pin (for positive logic). If unused,
the SHDN pin must be connected to VIN. The device will
be shut down if the SHDN pin is open circuit. For the
LT1964-BYP, the SHDN pin is internally connected to VIN.
A parasitic diode exists between the SHDN pin and the
input of the LT1964. The SHDN pin cannot be pulled more
negative than the input during normal operation, or more
than 0.5V below the input during a fault condition.
ADJ (Pin 4, Adjustable Devices only): For the Adjustable
LT1964, this is the Input to the Error Amplifier. The ADJ pin
has a bias current of 30nA that flows out of the pin. The
ADJ pin voltage is –1.22V referenced to ground, and the
output voltage range is –1.22V to –20V. A parasitic diode
exists between the ADJ pin and the input of the LT1964.
The ADJ pin cannot be pulled more negative than the input
during normal operation, or more than 0.5V more negative
than the input during a fault condition.
OUT (Pin 5): The Output Supplies Power to the Load. A
minimum output capacitor of 1µF is required to prevent
oscillations. Larger output capacitors will be required for
applications with large transient loads to limit peak voltage
transients. A parasitic diode exists between the output and
the input. The output cannot be pulled more negative than
the input during normal operation, or more than 0.5V
below the input during a fault condition. See the Applications Information section for more information on output
capacitance and reverse output characteristics.

The LT1964 is a 200mA negative low dropout regulator
with micropower quiescent current and shutdown. The
device is capable of supplying 200mA at a dropout voltage
of 340mV. Output voltage noise can be lowered to 30µVRMS
over a 10Hz to 100kHz bandwidth with the addition of a
0.01µF reference bypass capacitor. Additionally, the reference bypass capacitor will improve transient response of
the regulator, lowering the settling time for transient load
conditions. The low operating quiescent current (30µA)
drops to 3µA in shutdown. In addition to the low quiescent
current, the LT1964 incorporates several protection
features which make it ideal for use in battery-powered
systems. In dual supply applications where the regulator
load is returned to a positive supply, the output can be
pulled above ground by as much as 20V and still allow the
device to start and operate.
Adjustable Operation
The adjustable version of the LT1964 has an output voltage
range of –1.22V to –20V. The output voltage is set by the
ratio of two external resistors as shown in Figure 1. The
device servos the output to maintain the voltage at the ADJ
pin at –1.22V referenced to ground. The current in R1 is
then equal to –1.22V/R1 and the current in R2 is the
current in R1 plus the ADJ pin bias current. The ADJ pin
bias current, 30nA at 25°C, flows through R2 out of the
ADJ pin. The output voltage can be calculated using the
formula in Figure 1. The value of R1 should be less than
250kΩ to minimize errors in the output voltage caused by
the ADJ pin bias current. Note that in shutdown the output
is turned off and the divider current will be zero. Curves of
ADJ Pin Voltage vs Temperature and ADJ Pin Bias Current
vs Temperature appear in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
The adjustable device is tested and specified with the ADJ
pin tied to the OUT pin and a 5µA DC load (unless otherwise
specified) for an output voltage of –1.22V. Specifications
for output voltages greater than –1.22V will be proportional to the ratio of the desired output voltage to –1.22V;
(VOUT/–1.22V). For example, load regulation for an output
current change of 1mA to 200mA is 2mV typical at VOUT =
–1.22V. At VOUT = –12V, load regulation is:
(–12V/–1.22V) • (2mV) = 19.6mV

Bypass Capacitance and Low Noise Performance
The LT1964 may be used with the addition of a bypass
capacitor from VOUT to the BYP pin to lower output
voltage noise. A good quality low leakage capacitor is
recommended. This capacitor will bypass the reference of
the LT1964, providing a low frequency noise pole. The
noise pole provided by this bypass capacitor will lower the
output voltage noise to as low as 30µVRMS with the
addition of a 0.01µF bypass capacitor. Using a bypass
capacitor has the added benefit of improving transient
response. With no bypass capacitor and a 10µF output
capacitor, a –10mA to –200mA load step will settle to
within 1% of its final value in less than 100µs. With the
addition of a 0.01µF bypass capacitor, the output will stay
within 1% for the same –10mA to –200mA load step (see
LT1964-5 Transient Response in the Typical Characteristics section). However, regulator start-up time is inversely
proportional to the size of the bypass capacitor.
Higher values of output voltage noise may be measured
if care is not exercised with regard to circuit layout
and testing. Crosstalk from nearby traces can induce
unwanted noise onto the output of the LT1964-X.
The LT1964 is designed to be stable with a wide range of
output capacitors. The ESR of the output capacitor affects
stability, most notably with small capacitors. A minimum
output capacitor of 1µF with an ESR of 3Ω or less is
recommended to prevent oscillations. The LT1964 is a
micropower device and output transient response will be
a function of output capacitance. Larger values of output
capacitance decrease the peak deviations and provide
improved transient response for larger load current
changes. Bypass capacitors, used to decouple individual
components powered by the LT1964, will increase the
effective output capacitor value.
Extra consideration must be given to the use of ceramic
capacitors. Ceramic capacitors are manufactured with a
variety of dielectrics, each with different behavior across
temperature and applied voltage. The most common dielectrics used are Z5U, Y5V, X5R, and X7R. The Z5U and
Y5V dielectrics are good for providing high capacitances
in a small package, but exhibit strong voltage and temperature coefficients as shown in Figures 2 and 3. When
used with a –5V regulator, a 10µF Y5V capacitor can
exhibit an effective value as low as 1µF to 2µF over the
operating temperature range. The X5R and X7R dielectrics
result in more stable characteristics and are more suitable
for use as the output capacitor. The X7R type has better
stability across temperature, while the X5R is less expensive and is available in higher values.
Voltage and temperature coefficients are not the only
sources of problems. Some ceramic capacitors have a
piezoelectric response. A piezoelectric device generates
voltage across its terminals due to mechanical stress,
similar to the way a piezoelectric accelerometer or microphone works. For a ceramic capacitor the stress can be
induced by vibrations in the system or thermal transients.
The resulting voltages produced can cause appreciable
amounts of noise, especially when a ceramic capacitor is
used for noise bypassing. A ceramic capacitor produced
Figure 4’s trace in response to light tapping from a pencil.
Similar vibration induced behavior can masquerade as
increased output voltage noise.

Calculating Junction Temperature
Example: Given an output voltage of –5V, an input voltage
range of –6V to –8V, an output current range of 0mA to
–100mA, and a maximum ambient temperature of 50°C,
what will the maximum junction temperature be?
The power dissipated by the device will be equal to:
IOUT(MAX) • (VIN(MAX) – VOUT) + (IGND • VIN(MAX))
where,
IOUT(MAX) = –100mA
VIN(MAX) = –8V
IGND at (IOUT = –100mA, VIN = –8V) = –2mA
so,
P = –100mA • (–8V + 5V) + (–2mA • –8V) = 0.32W
The thermal resistance (junction to ambient) will be in the
range of 125°C/W to 150°C/W depending on the copper
area. So the junction temperature rise above ambient will
be approximately equal to:
0.32W • 140°C/W = 44.2°C
The maximum junction temperature will then be equal to
the maximum junction temperature rise above ambient
plus the maximum ambient temperature or:
TJMAX = 50°C + 44.2°C = 94.2°C
Protection Features
The LT1964 incorporates several protection features which
make it ideal for use in battery-powered circuits. In addition to the normal protection features associated with
monolithic regulators, such as current limiting and thermal limiting, the device is protected against reverse input
voltages and reverse output voltages.
Current limit protection and thermal overload protection
are intended to protect the device against current overload
conditions at the output of the device. For normal operation, the junction temperature should not exceed 125°C.
flow to less than 40µA. For adjustable versions, the output
will act like an open circuit, no current will flow into the pin.
If the input is powered by a voltage source, the output will
sink the short-circuit current of the device and will protect
itself by thermal limiting. In this case, grounding the SHDN
pin will turn off the device and stop the output from sinking
the short-circuit current.
Like many IC power regulators, the LT1964 series have
safe operating area protection. The safe area protection
activates at input-to-output differential voltages greater
than –7V. The safe area protection decreases the current
limit as the input-to-output differential voltage increases
and keeps the power transistor inside a safe operating
region for all values of forward input to-output voltage.
The protection is designed to provide some output current
at all values of input-to-output voltage up to the device
breakdown. A 50µA load is required at input-to-output
differential voltages greater than –7V.
When power is first turned on, as the input voltage rises,
the output follows the input, allowing the regulator to start
up into very heavy loads. During start-up, as the input
voltage is rising, the input-to-output voltage differential is
small, allowing the regulator to supply large output
currents. With a high input voltage, a problem can occur
wherein removal of an output short will not allow the
output voltage to fully recover. Other regulators, such as
the LT1175, also exhibit this phenomenon, so it is not
unique to the LT1964 series.
The problem occurs with a heavy output load when the
input voltage is high and the output voltage is low.
Common situations are immediately after the removal of
a short-circuit or when the SHDN pin is pulled high after
the input voltage has already been turned on. The load line
for such a load may intersect the output current curve at
two points. If this happens, there are two stable operating
points for the regulator. With this double intersection, the
input supply may need to be cycled down to zero and
brought up again to make the output recover.
The output of the LT1964 can be pulled above ground
without damaging the device. If the input is left open circuit
or grounded, the output can be pulled above ground by
20V. For fixed voltage versions, the output will act like a
large resistor, typically 500kΩ or higher, limiting current
