Description
Features
The SC900A is a highly integrated power management device for low power portable applications. The device contains five adjustable low-dropout linear regulators (LDOs)
with CMOS pass-devices as well as a band-gap reference,
I2C interface, and DACs to control the output voltages.

Many features of the SC900A are programmable through
the I2C interface. These include the ability to independently turn on any combination of the five regulators. All five
of the LDO output voltages are programmable in 50mV
steps from 1.45V to 3.00V for LDOs A and B, and from
1.75V to 3.30V for LDOs C, D and E. Each LDO can have
an active shutdown or nonactive shutdown program option through the interface. There is also a reset monitor
flag that is associated with LDOA. In addition, the device
has a separate programmable power good monitor flag
that activates when one or more LDOs go out of regulation.
Five LDO regulators in one package
I2C interface with multiple device capability
Independent I2C enable/disable of LDOs
Independent I2C control of output voltages
Low thermal impedance of 40°C per watt
150mV dropout at 150mA
Input range from 2.7V to 5.5V
Programmable power good flag
Minimal number of external components
Over temperature protection
Small 4mm x 4mm 20-lead MLPQ package
Small input/output filter capacitors
Programmable VOUT range 1.45V to 3.00V for LDOs A and B
1.75V to 3.30V for LDOs C, D and E
Applications
The SC900A offers significant quiescent current and
space savings to the system designer by sharing reference and biasing among five LDOs. The small and thermally efficient 20-lead MLPQ package make it ideal for
use in portable products where minimizing layout area is
critical.

POWER MANAGEMENT
Applications Information
General Description
Each of the five low-dropout linear regulators (LDOs) can
be independently enabled or disabled and their output
voltages can each be set by an independent DAC. These
controls can be accessed through the I2C serial port.
There are five 8-bit volatile registers in the SC900A; one
for each LDO (registers A,B,C,D,E). In addition there is
one common reset and power good control register and
one on/off control register. The active shutdown circuitry
can be accessed through each LDO register (refer to the
section “Active Shutdown” on page 11 for more information).
LDO RESET Control Register: ARST Pin
There are two functions that can be programmed, defining the ARST pin action:
• Set the polarity of the reset signal
• Set the reset clear delay time in milliseconds
As soon as the LDOA output voltage falls below its programmed value, the ARST pin is asserted. The polarity of
the ARST pin can be set to active high or active low during
a reset condition, by bit 6 of the LDO Reset Control Register. Once the error condition is resolved (output rises
to the programmed value), a delay is initiated before the
ARST pin is cleared. The delay is programmable by bits
0-1 of the LDO Reset Control Register. The Default delay
time is 100ms, and the delay can be programmed for 0,
50, 100, or 150ms.
At power-up, the register contents are reset to their default values and the ARST for LDO A has a default start-up
delay of 100ms. At any time the part can be put into it’s
lowest power state (shutdown) by pulling the EN pin low.
Whenever the EN pin is forced low, the previous settings
are lost and the part requires reprogramming to return
to the desired state. When EN is pulled high, the device
starts up in the default state. A detailed description of the
protocol used to load the registers with data is described
in the section entitled “Using the I2C Interface” on page
14.
LDOPGD Pin
There are three functions that can be programmed to
define the LDOPGD pin action:
• Set which LDOs are to be monitored for power good
• Set the polarity of the power good signal
• Set the power good delay time in milliseconds
VIN and Enable Pin
The VIN supply must be ≥ 2.7V before the EN pin can be
asserted. This means that the EN pin should not be tied
to VIN so that it does not reach a logic high level before the
input supply reaches 2.7V.
Bits 4 and 5 of the LDO Reset Control Register select
which LDO or LDOs are monitored. LDO C, D and E can
be monitored independently or LDOs A, C, D, and E can
be monitored collectively. The polarity of the LDOPGD pin
can be set to active high or active low by bit 7 of the LDO
Reset Control Register. As soon as any of the selected LDO
output voltages which are monitored falls within spec, the
LDO power good (LDOPGD) pin is asserted. Once the LDO
output power is stable (output rises to the programmed
value), a delay is initiated before the LDOPGD pin is set.
The delay is programmable by bits 2 and 3 of the LDO Reset Control Register. The default delay is 100ms, and this
delay can be programmed to 0, 50, 100, or 150ms.
LDOA (Core Supply)
LDOA is intended to be used as the core supply. It has an
output current capability of 200mA and a dedicated reset
signal ARST. INA is the dedicated input supply for this
regulator.
LDOB (Digital I/O Supply)
INB supplies power for the internal I2C interface and other
digital I/O functions, while LDOB supplies power for ARST
and LDOPGD output ports (see Block Diagram). Therefore it is imperative that LDOB be operational to make use
of ARST and LDOPGD. If LDOB is turned off by the on/off
control register, these output ports will not function.

POWER MANAGEMENT
Applications Information (Cont.)
Active Shutdown
The shutdown control bits determine how the on-chip active shutdown switches behave. Each LDO register uses
bit 5 of the LDO output voltage data byte to control the
shutdown behavior. When the active shutdown bit is enabled (set to 1), the capacitance on the LDO output will be
discharged by an on-chip FET after the LDO is disabled.
When the active shutdown bit is disabled (set to 0), the
output capacitance on the LDO output is discharged by
the load. The default active shutdown state for all LDOs
is on.
When the A0 pin is tied to GND, device 1 has an address
of 0 and the combination of device type ID and address is
0x08H. When the A0 pin is tied to VIN, device 2 has and
address of 1 and the combination of device type ID and
address is 0x09H.
The last bit of the slave address defines the operation to
be performed. When set to a one a read operation is selected; when set to a zero a write operation is selected.
Following a start condition, the SC900A monitors the SDA
line comparing the slave address being transmitted with
its slave address (device type ID and state of A0 input).
Upon a correct compare the SC900A outputs an acknowledge on the SDA line. Depending on the state of the R/W
bit, the SC900A will execute a read or write operation.
ON/OFF Control Register
Each individual LDO may be turned on or off by accessing
the ON/OFF control register. LDOs are turned on by setting their respective on/off bit to 1. Likewise, they can be
turned off by setting the on/off bit to 0. This allows for
on/off control with a single write command. If the enable
(EN) pin is high and data is written to the LDO voltage registers, the LDO outputs will go to the voltage prescribed by
the Output Voltage Code bits (0-4). Data will not be lost
when toggling the on/off bit from 0 to 1. However, if the
EN pin is forced low, all circuitry in the device is disabled.
All programmed information is lost when the enable bit is
subsequently pulled high.
Protection Circuitry
The SC900A provides protection circuitry that prevents
the device from operating in an unspecified state. These
include Under Voltage Lockout Protection, Over-temperature Protection and Short-circuit Protection.
Under Voltage Lockout
The SC900A provides an Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO)
circuit to protect the device from operating in an unknown
state if the input voltage supply is too low. When the battery voltage drops below the UVLO threshold, the LDOs
are disabled. As the battery voltage increases above the
hysteresis level, the LDOs are re-enabled into their previous states, provided ENABLE has remained high. If ENABLE goes low, the SC900A will shut down.
VASEL Pin
The VASEL pin sets the default voltage of LDO A, the core
supply. When this pin is set to VIN, the default voltage is
2.80V. When this pin is set to GND, the default voltage is
1.80V. The voltage can be changed from its default state
after start up by writing to the LDO voltage code register.
Over Temperature Protection
The SC900A provides an internal Over-temperature (OT)
protection circuit that monitors the internal junction temperature. When the temperature exceeds the OT threshold, the OT protection disables all the LDO outputs. As
the junction temperature drops below the hysteresis level
the OT protection re-enables all the LDOs in their previous
states, provided ENABLE has remained high. If ENABLE
goes low, the SC900A will shut down.
Device Addressing
Following a start condition, the master must output the
address of the slave it is accessing. The most significant
six bits of the slave are the device type identifier (ID). For
the SC900A this is fixed at 000100[B]. The next significant bit addresses a particular device. A system can have
up to two SC900A devices on the bus. The two addresses
are defined by the state of the A0 input (see Figure 1).

Short-Circuit Protection
Each LDO output has short-circuit protection. If a short is
applied to any output, the output voltage will drop and the
output current will be limited to the short circuit current
until the short is removed.

Layout Considerations
Layout is straightforward if you use the Gerber files on
page 21 as a reference. Notice that the input voltage feed
to the SC900A is on the bottom of the board and vias connect this voltage track to the top of the board and then
to the SC900A itself. The input bypass can be one 4.7μF
capacitor, two 3.3μF capacitors, three 2.2μF capacitors or
five 1μF capacitors. The determining factor is how much
copper is available on the input voltage feed track and
how much room is available. If the input voltage track is
very thin, then use five 1μF capacitors placed very close
to the input pins of the SC900A. If the input track is fairly
thick, then you can use a single 4.7μF capacitor at the beginning of the voltage feed track since a wider track has
less inductance per inch. The SC900AEVB has five 1μF
capacitors, but these can be replaced with one 4.7μF in
place of C1 and opens in place of C9, C14, C15, and C16
(see page 20 for details).

Output Voltage Code Bits:
A 5-bit linear DAC controls the output voltage of each LDO. The DAC and error-amp gain are scaled so that the LSB
size at the output is 50mV. Output voltage can be set by writing the proper code to the desired LDO register. See Table
A for the bitcodes and their corresponding voltages for LDOs A and B, and Table B for the bitcodes and corresponding
voltages for LDOs C, D and E.

POWER MANAGEMENT
Applications Information (Cont.)
Using the I2C Interface
The SC900A is a read-write slave mode I2C device and complies with the Philips I2C standard version 2.1 dated January
2000. The SC900A has six user-accessible internal 8-bit registers. The I2C interface has been designed for program
flexibility, in that once the slave address has been sent to the SC900A enabling it to be a slave transmitter/receiver,
any register can be written to or read from independently of each other. While there is no auto increment/decrement
capability in the SC900A I2C logic, a tight software loop can be designed to randomly access the next register independent of which register you have been accessing. The start and stop commands frame the datapacket and the repeat
start condition is allowed if necessary.
SC900A Limitations to the I2C Specifications
Seven-bit addressing is required for communication with the SC900A; ten-bit addressing is not allowed. Any general
call address will be ignored by the SC900A. Note that the SC900A is not CBUS compatible. Finally, the SC900A can
operate in standard mode (100kbit/s) or fast mode (400kbit/s).
Supported Formats
Direct Format - Write
The simplest format for an I2C write is the direct format. After the start condition [S], the slave address is sent, followed
by an eighth bit indicating a write. The SC900A I2C then acknowledges that it is being addressed, and the master responds with an 8-bit data byte consisting of the register address. The slave acknowledges and the master sends the
appropriate 8-bit data byte. Once again the slave acknowledges and the master terminates the transfer with the stop
condition [P].

then acknowledges that it is being addressed, and the master responds with an 8-bit data byte consisting of the register address. The slave acknowledges and the master sends the repeated start condition [Sr]. Once again the slave
address is sent, followed by an eighth bit indicating a read. The slave responds with an acknowledge and the previously addressed 8-bit data byte. The master then sends a non-acknowledge (NACK). Finally the master terminates the
transfer with the stop condition [P].

Stop Separated Reads
Another read format is available which is, in effect, an extension of the combined format read. This format allows a
master to set up the register address pointer for a read and return to that slave some time later to read the data.
After the start condition [S], the slave address is sent, followed by a write. The SC900A I2C then acknowledges that
it is being addressed, and the master responds with the 8-bit register address. The master then sends a stop or
restart condition, and may address another slave. Some time later the master sends a start or restart condition, and
a valid slave address is sent, followed by a read. The SC900A I2C then acknowledges and returns the data at thee
register address location that had previously been set up.
