Detailed Description
The MAX1735 is a low-dropout negative linear voltage
regulator. It features Dual Mode operation, allowing a
fixed -5.0V, -3.0V, or -2.5V output voltage or an
adjustable output from -1.25V to -5.5V. The regulator is
guaranteed to supply 200mA of output current. It features 60dB power-supply rejection for noise-sensitive
applications and a low 85µA operating current that optimizes it for battery-operated devices.
As Figure 1 illustrates, the device consists of an internal
-1.25V reference, an error amplifier, an N-channel
MOSFET, an internal precision-trimmed feedback voltage-divider, and a Dual Mode comparator.
The -1.25V reference is connected to the inverting input
of the error amplifier. The error amplifier compares the
reference voltage with the selected feedback voltage
and amplifies the difference. The error amplifier drives
the MOSFET to control the output voltage.
The feedback voltage for regulation is generated by
either an internal or external resistive voltage-divider
connected from OUT to SET. The internal Dual Mode
6
comparator selects the feedback path based on VSET.
Connect SET to GND to use the internal feedback path,
setting the output voltage to the preset value. If an
external voltage-divider is used, see Output Voltage
Selection.
Internal N-Channel MOSFET
The MAX1735 features an N-channel MOSFET pass
transistor. Unlike similar designs using NPN bipolar
pass transistors, N-channel MOSFETs require extremely low drive currents, reducing overall quiescent current. Also, NPN-based regulators consume still more
base current in dropout conditions when the pass transistor saturates. The MAX1735 does not suffer from
these problems, consuming only 125µA total current at
full load and in dropout.
Output Voltage Selection
The MAX1735 features Dual Mode operation, allowing for
a preset or adjustable output voltage. In preset voltage
mode, the output of the MAX1735 is set to -5.0V, -3.0V, or
-2.5V (see Ordering Information). Select this mode by
connecting SET to GND (Figure 2).

Figure 2. Typical Application Circuit with Preset Output Voltage
In adjustable mode, an output voltage between -5.5V and
-1.25V is selected using two external resistors connected
as a voltage-divider from OUT to SET (Figure 3). The output voltage is determined by the following equation:
  R1  
VOUT = VSET 1+   
  R2  
where VSET = VREFERENCE = -1.25V when in regulation.
Since the input bias current at SET is <100nA, use
large resistance values for R1 and R2 to minimize
power consumption in the feedback network. A typical
value of 100kΩ for R2 is acceptable for most applications. Higher values consume less current at the
expense of output voltage accuracy. The above equation solved for R1 is:
 V
 
R1 = R2  OUT  − 1
 VSET  
For preset output voltage mode, connect SET directly
to GND.
Shutdown
In shutdown, the N-channel MOSFET, control circuitry,
reference, and all internal circuits are turned off, reducing supply current to typically 1nA. SHDN can be driven by either a positive or negative voltage. Drive
SHDN above +1.6V or below -1.6V to turn the regulator
on. To turn the regulator off, drive SHDN to GND. For
always-on operation, connect SHDN to IN. By including
a positive threshold at SHDN, it can be driven by a
standard 5V TTL level without needing level-shifting circuitry.

Figure 3. Typical Application Circuit with Adjustable Output
Voltage
Current Limiting
The MAX1735 features a current limit that protects the
regulator. Short-circuit output current is typically
515mA. The output will withstand a short to ground
indefinitely; however, if the increased power dissipation
heats the die to +160°C, the thermal overload protection will shut off the regulator, preventing damage to the
IC.
Thermal Overload Protection
The thermal overload protection circuit protects the regulator against overheating due to prolonged overload
conditions. When the die temperature exceeds +160°C,
an on-chip thermal sensor disables the pass transistor,
allowing the IC to cool. The thermal sensor reenables
the pass MOSFET once the die temperature drops
15°C. A continuous short-circuit fault condition results in
a cyclical enabling and disabling of the output.
Thermal overload protection is designed to safeguard
the MAX1735 in the event of overload fault conditions.
For normal operation, do not exceed the absolute maximum junction temperature rating of +150°C. Junction
temperature is greater than ambient by an amount
depending on package heat dissipation and the thermal resistance from the junction to ambient (θJA):
TJUNCTION = TAMBIENT + (θJA)(PDISSIPATION)
where
θJA for the 5-pin SOT23 is about 0.140°C/mW.

Operating Region Bounded by Available Power Dissipation at
Selected Ambient Temperatures
Operating Region and Power Dissipation
Maximum power dissipation of the MAX1735 depends
on the thermal resistance of the case and the circuit
board, the temperature difference between the die
junction and ambient air, and the rate of air flow (see
also Thermal Overload Protection). The maximum
power that can be dissipated by the device is:
T
− TA TJMAX − TA
PMAX = JMAX
=
θJC + θCA
θJA
where the numerator expresses the temperature difference between the maximum allowed die junction
(+150°C) and the surrounding air, θJC (junction to case)
is the thermal resistance of the package, and θCA (case
to ambient) is the thermal resistance from the package
through the PC board, traces, and other material to the
surrounding air. The former is a characteristic solely of
the device in its package, and the latter is completely
defined by PC board layout and airflow. It is important to
note that the ability to dissipate power is as much a function of the PC board layout and air flow as the packaged
part itself. Hence, a manufacturer can reliably provide a
value for θJC, but not accurately provide a value for the
total thermal resistance θJA. θJA is the sum of θJC and
θCA, and the manufacturer can seldom reliably predict
the thermal characteristics of the application circuit.
Figure 4 shows the estimated allowable power dissipation for a MAX1735 mounted on a typical PC board at
ambient temperatures of +50°C, +70°C, and +85°C.
Figure 4 shows the maximum continuous output current
for a particular input-to-output voltage differential, for
8
selected ambient temperatures. The working principle is
that the SOT23-5 package is small enough that in a typical application circuit at room temperature, the package
cannot dissipate enough power to allow -6.5V to be regulated to -1.25V at -200mA output (more than 1200mW).
As ambient temperature falls, the available power dissipation increases to allow for a greater operating region.
The equation for the family of curves follows:
T − 70
PMAX − A
θJA
| IOUT | =
|VOUT − VIN |
where |IOUT| is in mA, |VOUT - VIN| in V, PMAX (571mW)
is the absolute maximum rated power dissipation at
+70°C for the SOT23-5, and θJA (0.140°C/mW) is the
approximate junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of
the SOT23-5 in a typical application.
A key to reducing θCA, thereby increasing thermal conductivity to the PC board, is to provide large PC board
pads and traces for IN.
__________Applications Information
Capacitor Selection and
Regulator Stability
Capacitors are required at the input and output of the
MAX1735. Connect a 1µF or greater capacitor between
IN and GND. This input capacitor serves only to lower
the source impedance of the input supply in transient
conditions; a smaller value can be used when the regulator is powered from a low-impedance source, such as
another regulated supply or low-impedance batteries.
For output voltages between -2.5V and -5.5V, connect
a 1µF or greater capacitor between OUT and GND. For
voltages between -1.25V and -2.5V, use a 2.2µF or
greater output capacitor. The maximum value of the
output capacitor to guarantee stability is 10µF.
The output capacitor’s value and equivalent series
resistance (ESR) affect stability and output noise. To
ensure stability and optimum transient response, output
capacitor ESR should be 0.1Ω or less for output voltages from -1.25V to -2.45V and 0.2Ω or less for output
voltages between -2.5V and -5.5V. Inexpensive surface-mount ceramic capacitors typically have very-low
ESR and are commonly available in values up to 10µF.
Other low-ESR capacitors, such as surface-mount tantalum, may also be used. Do not use low-cost aluminum electrolytic capacitors due to their large size
and relatively high ESR. Lastly, make sure the input and
output capacitors are as close to the IC as possible to
minimize the impact of PC board trace impedance.

Dropout Voltage
A regulator’s minimum input-to-output voltage differential dropout voltage determines the lowest usable supply voltage for an application. In battery-powered
systems, this determines the useful end-of-life battery
voltage. Since the MAX1735’s pass element is an
N-channel MOSFET, dropout voltage is the product of
R DS(ON) and the load current; see Electrical
Characteristics and Dropout Voltage vs. Load Current
in the Typical Operating Characteristics for details. The
MAX1735 operating (ground pin) current typically
remains below 125µA at full load in dropout.

Noise, PSRR, and Transient Response
MAX1735 output noise is typically 160µVRMS. This is
suitably low for most applications. See the Output
Noise vs. Frequency plot in the Typical Operating
Characteristics.
The MAX1735 is optimized for battery-powered equipment, with low dropout voltage and low quiescent current. It maintains good transient response, AC rejection,
and noise characteristics even near dropout. See
Power-Supply Rejection Ratio vs. Frequency in the
Typical Operating Characteristics. When operating
from very noisy sources, supply noise rejection and
transient response can be improved by increasing the
input and output capacitance, and by employing passive postfiltering.
