to the AIC2951/2951D series from fault conditions.
An error flag output, indicating when output voltage drops out of regulation, often due to the
falling batteries on the input, can be used for a
power-on reset. A logic-controlled shutdown
input enables the regulator to be switched on and
off. The part may be configured for a fixed output
voltage or programmed from 1.235V to 11V with
an external pair of resistors. The part comes in 8pin DIP or SO packages.

n APPLICATION INFORMATIONS
Output Filter Capacitors
A 1µF (or greater) capacitor is required between the AIC2951/AIC2951D output and ground for stability. Without
this capacitor the part will oscillate. Even though most types of capacitor may work, if Aluminum electrolytic type
is used, the equivalent series resistance (ESR) should be held to 5Ω or less. Many Aluminum electrolytics have
electrolytes that freeze at about -30°C, so solid tantalums are recommended for operation below -25°C. The value
of this capacitor may be increased without limit.
The output capacitance required for stability varies with output voltage (smaller for higher output voltage) and output current (smaller for lower output currents). At the worst-case situation of a 150mA load at 1.235V output
(output shorted to FB pin) a 3.3 µF or greater capacitor should be used.
A 0.1µF capacitor should be placed from the AIC2951/2951D input to ground if the lead inductance between the
input and power source exceeds 500nH (approximately 10 inches of trace). Noise injection into the feedback
terminal of the AIC2951/2951D from nearby noise sources can also upset the output. This may especially
be a problem when using high value external resisProgramming the Output Voltage

AIC2951/2951D
dividers are provided for 3.0V/3.3V/5.0V output versions. To use the internal voltage divider, connect
the SENSE pin to output and the TAP pin to the FB
pin. When using an external divider the SENSE and
TAP pins are left open, and the divider is installed
from the output to ground, with its center connected
to the FB pin (see Fig. 1). When using an external
voltage divider, resistance can be calculated from
the following formula:
R1
VOUT = VREF × (1 +
) + IFB × R1
R2
R2. Using a 1.2MΩ resistor for R2, the bias current
will already cause a 2% shift in output voltage. For
better accuracy, choosing R2=100KΩ reduces this
error to 0.17% at the price of merely increasing the
resistor programming current to 12µA.
Reducing Output Noise
In reference applications it may be advantageous to
reduce the AC noise present at the output. One
method is to reduce the regulator bandwidth by increasing the size of the output capacitor. Another,
noise can be reduced by bypassing the upper resistor in the feedback divider with a small capacitor,
since the capacitor provides a more direct path for
AC feedback. The size of this capacitor can be calculated from the formula:

Where R1 is the upper resistor of the feedback divider and fCORNOR is the frequency above which the
increased AC feedback is to become active. The
reduction of the output noise at high frequency will
be proportional to the ratio of the two resistors in
the feedback divider, R2/(R1+R2). In order to maintain regulator stability when using a noise-reducing
bypass capacitor, it will also be necessary to increase the size of the output filter capacitor by the
same ratio.
