MAXIM MAX8891EXKXY+T

19-4537; Rev 0; 3/09
High PSRR, Low-Dropout, 150mA
Linear Regulators
The MAX8891/MAX8892 low-dropout (LDO) linear regulators are designed to deliver up to 150mA continuous
output current. These regulators achieve a low 120mV
dropout for 120mA load current.
The MAX8891 only requires an input/output capacitor,
hence achieving the smallest PCB area. The
MAX8892’s output voltage can be adjusted with an
external divider.
The MAX8891 is preset to a variety of voltages in the
1.5V to 4.5V range. Designed with a p-channel
MOSFET series pass transistor, the MAX8891/MAX8892
maintain very low ground current (40µA).
The regulators are designed and optimized to work with
low-value, low-cost ceramic capacitors. The MAX8891/
MAX8892 require only 1µF (typ) of output capacitance
for stability with any load. When disabled, current consumption drops to below 1µA.
These regulators are available in a tiny 5-pin SC70
package.

Adjustable Output Feedback Point
Detailed Description
The MAX8891/MAX8892 are low-dropout, low-quiescent current linear regulators designed for spacerestricted applications. The parts are available with
preset output voltages ranging from 1.5V to 4.5V in
100mV increments. These devices can supply loads up
to 150mA. As shown in the Functional Diagram, the
MAX8891 consists of an innovative bandgap core, error
amplifier, p-channel pass transistor, and internal feedback voltage-divider. The MAX8892 allows for
adjustable output with an external feedback network.
Additional blocks include a current limiter, thermal sensor, and shutdown logic.
The 1.225V bandgap reference is connected to the
error amplifier’s inverting input. The error amplifier compares this reference with the feedback voltage and
amplifies the difference. If the feedback voltage is lower
than the reference voltage, the pass-transistor gate is
pulled low. This allows more current to pass to the output and increases the output voltage. If the feedback
voltage is too high, the pass transistor gate is pulled
high, allowing less current to pass to the output. The
output voltage is fed back through an internal (external
for the MAX8892) resistor voltage-divider connected to
the OUT pin.
Internal P-Channel Pass Transistor
The MAX8891/MAX8892 feature a 1Ω (typ) p-channel
MOSFET pass transistor. This provides several advantages over similar designs using a PNP pass transistor,
including longer battery life. The p-channel MOSFET
requires no base drive, which considerably reduces quiescent current. PNP-based regulators waste considerable current in dropout when the pass transistor
saturates. They also use high base-drive current under
heavy loads. The MAX8891/MAX8892 do not suffer from
these problems and consume only 40µA of quiescent
current in light load and 220µA in dropout (see the
Typical Operating Characteristics).
Output Voltage Selection
The MAX8891 is supplied with factory-set output voltages from 1.5V to 4.5V, in 100mV increments (see the
Ordering Information). The MAX8892 features a useradjustable output through an external feedback network (see the Typical Operating Circuits).
To set the output of the MAX8892, use the following
equation:
⎛ VOUT ⎞
- 1⎟
R1 = R2 X ⎜
⎝ VREF ⎠
where R2 is chosen to be less than 240kΩ and VREF =
1.225V. Use 1% or better resistors.
Shutdown
The MAX8891/MAX8892 feature a low-power shutdown
mode that reduces quiescent current less than 1µA.
Driving SHDN low disables the voltage reference, error
amplifier, gate-drive circuitry, and pass transistor (see
the Functional Diagram), and the device output enters a
high-impedance state. Connect SHDN to IN for normal
operation.
Current Limit
The MAX8891/MAX8892 include a current limiter, which
monitors and controls the pass transistor’s gate voltage, limiting the output current to 200mA. The output
can be continuously shorted to ground without damaging the part.

Pin Description
MAX8891/MAX8892
High PSRR, Low-Dropout, 150mA
Linear Regulators
Thermal-Overload Protection
Thermal-overload protection limits total power dissipation
in the MAX8891/MAX8892. When the junction temperature exceeds TJ = +160°C, the thermal sensor signals
the shutdown logic, turning off the pass transistor and
allowing the IC to cool down. The thermal sensor turns
the pass transistor on again after the IC’s junction temperature drops by 10°C, resulting in a pulsed output during continuous thermal-overload conditions.
Thermal-overload protection is designed to protect the
MAX8891/MAX8892 in the event of a fault condition. For
continual operation, do not exceed the absolute maximum junction temperature rating of TJ = +150°C.
Operating Region and Power Dissipation
The MAX8891/MAX8892 maximum power dissipation
depends on the thermal resistance of the case and circuit board, the temperature difference between the die
junction and ambient, and the rate of airflow. The power
dissipation across the device is:
P = IOUT (VIN - VOUT)
The maximum power dissipation is:
PMAX = (TJ - TA)/(θJC + θCA)
where TJ - TA is the temperature difference between the
MAX8891/MAX8892 die junction and the surrounding air,
θJC is the thermal resistance of the package, and θCA is
the thermal resistance through the PCB, copper traces,
and other materials to the surrounding air.
The GND pin of the MAX8891/MAX8892 performs the
dual function of providing an electrical connection to
ground and channeling heat away. Connect the GND
pin to ground using a large pad or ground plane.

Applications Information
Capacitor Selection
and Regulator Stability
Use a 1µF capacitor on the MAX8891/MAX8892 input
and a 1µF capacitor on the output. Larger input capacitor
values and lower ESRs provide better noise rejection and
line-transient response. Reduce output noise and
improve load-transient response, stability, and powersupply rejection by using large output capacitors. Note
that some ceramic dielectrics exhibit large capacitance
and ESR variation with temperature. With dielectrics such
as Z5U and Y5V, it may be necessary to use a 2.2µF or
larger output capacitor to ensure stability at temperatures
below -10°C. With X7R or X5R dielectrics, 1µF is sufficient
at all operating temperatures. A graph of the region of
stable COUT ESR vs. load current is shown in the Typical
Operating Characteristics.
PSRR and Transient Response
The MAX8891/MAX8892 are designed to deliver high
PSRR as well as low dropout and low quiescent currents
in battery-powered systems. The MAX8891/MAX8892
power-supply rejection is 65dB at 10kHz.
When operating from sources other than batteries,
improved supply-noise rejection and transient response
can be achieved by increasing the values of the input
and output bypass capacitors, and through passive filtering techniques. The Typical Operating Characteristics
show the MAX8891/MAX8892 line- and load-transient
responses.
Dropout Voltage
A regulator’s minimum dropout voltage determines the
lowest usable supply voltage. In battery-powered
systems, this determines the useful end-of-life battery
voltage. Because the MAX8891/MAX8892 use a
p-channel MOSFET pass transistor, their dropout voltage is a function of drain-to-source on-resistance
(RDS(ON)) multiplied by the load current (see the Typical
Operating Characteristics).
