Limiting: the LX8630 limits the current
when the output is shorted, protecting the
sensitive load circuits. The device will
also turn off if the junction temperature
exceeds 150°
Available in Popular TO-220 and
TO-263 Power Packages: adjustable
versions have five leads, and fixed output
voltage devices are supplied in three lead
packages.

designed to provide a power supply for
very low headroom applications, such as
3.3V – 2.5V.
BiCMOS technology allows an
effective series pass element resistance,
RDS(ON) of 150m dropout voltage of 450mV at 3A.
Low Quiescent Current and LogicControlled Shutdown help conserve
battery life and increase system efficiency.
Typical quiescent current is under 400A

Junction Temperature Calculation: TJ = TA + (PD x θJA).
The θJA numbers are guidelines for the thermal performance of the device/pc-board system.
All of the above assume no ambient airflow.

θJA can be improved with package soldered to 0.5IN2 copper area over backside
ground plane or internal power plane. θJA can vary from 20°C/W to > 40°C/W

& regulation, rather it is needed for transient response. Size your output capacitor to meet the transient loading
requirement. If you have a very dynamic load, a larger capacitor will improve the response to these load steps.
GND
Reference ground. The input and output bypass capacitors should be connected to this pin. The tab on the TO220 and TO-263 packages along with the ground pin are also used for heatsinking the device.
ADJ
Feedback pin for the regulator. For the LX8630-00, the output voltage can be set by two external resistors with
the following relationship: VOUT = 1.25V * (1+RA/RB) where RA is the resistor connected between VOUT and ADJ,
RB is the resistor connected between ADJ and GND pin.
SHDN
Shutdown pin. For the LX8630-00, this pin has a threshold of about V IN/2, it should be actively pulled high to
enable the regulator. This can be accomplished with a resistive pull-up. When low, it turns off the regulator and
puts the device in a low current shutdown state.
