1 General Description
2 Key Features
The AS1363 is a low-dropout linear regulator that operates from a
+2.0V to +5.5V supply and delivers a guaranteed 500mA load
current with low 150mV dropout.
Guaranteed Output Current: 500mA
The device is available in two versions (see Table 1). One version
has a high-accuracy output with a preset voltage (1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V,
3.0V, 3.3V, or 4.5V). This voltage is internally trimmed and also offers
a Bypass pin. With a capacitor connected to this Bypass pin, the
PSRR and the Noise performance is improved.
2.0V to 5.5V Input Voltage
At the other version the output voltage is user-adjustable (1.2V to
5.3V) and offers an SET pin for setting the output voltage.

Figure 15 shows the block diagram of the AS1363. It identifies the basics of a series linear regulator employing a P-Channel MOSFET as the
control element. A stable voltage reference (1.2VREF in Figure 15) is compared with an attenuated sample of the output voltage. Any difference
between the two voltages (reference and sample) creates an output from the error amplifier that drives the series control element to reduce the
difference to a minimum. The error amplifier incorporates additional buffering to drive the relatively large gate capacitance of the series pass Pchannel MOSFET, when additional drive current is required under transient conditions.. Input supply variations are absorbed by the series
element, and output voltage variations with loading are absorbed by the low output impedance of the regulator.
The device features a 1.2V reference, error amplifier, P-channel pass transistor, and internal feedback voltage-divider (see Figure 15). Additional
blocks include an output current limiter, thermal sensor, and shutdown logic.
8.1 Shutdown
If pin EN is connected to GND the AS1363 is disabled. In shutdown mode all internal circuits are turned off, reducing supply current to 30nA
typical. For normal operation pin EN must be connected to IN. During shutdown, POK is low.

8.2 Output Voltage Selection
The AS1363 is available in two versions (see Ordering Information on page 18). One version can only operate at one fixed output voltage and
the other version can operate with a preset output voltage or with user-adjustable output voltages (1.2V to 5.3V).
For the fixed output voltage version connect a capacitor CBYP from pin BYP to VOUT to improve PSRR and Noise performance
(see Figure 16).
To use the factory preset output voltage of the user-adjustable output voltage version, connect pin SET to GND
(see Figure 17).
For configurations using an output voltage other than the factory preset, a voltage-divider from OUT to SET to GND is required, as shown in
(see Figure on page 1). A value for R2 in the 25k to 100k range should be sufficient. Calculate the value for R1 as:

8.3 Power-OK
The AS1363 features a power-ok indicator that asserts when the output voltage falls out of regulation. The open-drain POK output goes low
when output voltage at OUT falls 6% below its nominal value. A 100k pull-up resistor from POK to a (typically OUT) provides a logic control
signal.
POK can be used as a power-on-reset (POR) signal to a microcontroller or can drive an external LED to indicate a power failure condition.
Note: POK is low during shutdown.
8.4 Current Limit
The AS1363 features current limiting circuitry that monitors the pass transistor, limiting short-circuit output current to 0.8A (typ). The circuitry of
the AS1363 allows that the output can be shorted to ground for an indefinite period of time without damaging the device.
8.5 Thermal Overload Protection
Integrated thermal overload protection limits the total power dissipation in the AS1363. When the junction temperature (TJ) exceeds +170ºC
typically, the pass transistor is turned off. Normal operation is continued when TJ drops approximately 20ºC.
Note: Regardless of the hysteresis, continuous short-circuit condition will result in a pulsed output.

9 Application Information
9.1 Dropout Voltage
Dropout is the input to output voltage difference, below which the linear regulator ceases to regulate. At this point, the output voltage change
follows the input voltage change. Dropout voltage may be measured at different currents and, in particular at the regulator maximum one. From
this is obtained the MOSFET maximum series resistance over temperature etc. More generally:
V DROPOUT = I LOAD  R SERIES
(EQ 2)
Dropout is probably the most important specification when the regulator is used in a battery application. The dropout performance of the
regulator defines the useful “end of life” of the battery before replacement or re-charge is required.

VIN
Figure 18 shows the variation of VOUT as VIN is varied for a certain load current. The practical value of dropout is the differential voltage (VOUTVIN) measured at the point where the LDO output voltage has fallen by 100mV below the nominal, fully regulated output value. The nominal
regulated output voltage of the LDO is that obtained when there is 500mV (or greater) input-output voltage differential.
9.2 Efficiency
Low quiescent current and low input-output voltage differential are important in battery applications amongst others, as the regulator efficiency is
directly related to quiescent current and dropout voltage. Efficiency is given by:

9.3 Power Dissipation
Maximum power dissipation (PD) of the LDO is the sum of the power dissipated by the internal series MOSFET and the quiescent current
required to bias the internal voltage reference and the internal error amplifier, and is calculated as:
PD  MAX   Seriespass  = I LOAD  MAX   V IN  MAX  – V OUT  MIN   Watts
(EQ 4)
Internal power dissipation as a result of the bias current for the internal voltage reference and the error amplifier is calculated as:
PD  MAX   Bias  = V IN  MAX  I Q Watts
(EQ 5)
PD  MAX   Total  = PD  MAX   Seriespass  + PD  MAX   Bias  Watts
(EQ 6)
Total LDO power dissipation is calculated as:
9.4 Junction Temperature
Under all operating conditions, the maximum junction temperature should not be allowed to exceed 125ºC (unless the data sheet specifically
allows). Limiting the maximum junction temperature requires knowledge of the heat path from junction to case (JCºC/W fixed by the IC
manufacturer), and adjustment of the case to ambient heat path (CAºC/W) by manipulation of the PCB copper area adjacent to the IC position.

Line Regulation
Line regulation is defined as the change in output voltage when the input (or line) voltage is changed by a known quantity. It is a measure of the
regulator’s ability to maintain a constant output voltage when the input voltage changes. Line regulation is a measure of the DC open loop gain
of the error amplifier. More generally:

Setting Accuracy
Accuracy of the final output voltage is determined by the accuracy of the ratio of R1 and R2, the reference accuracy and the input offset voltage
of the error amplifier. When the regulator is supplied pre-trimmed, the output voltage accuracy is fully defined in the output voltage specification.
When the regulator has a SET terminal, the output voltage may be adjusted externally. In this case, the tolerance of the external resistor network
must be incorporated into the final accuracy calculation. Generally:
R1  R1

(EQ 12)
The reference tolerance is given both at 25ºC and over the full operating temperature range.
9.5.4
Total Accuracy
Away from dropout, total steady state accuracy is the sum of setting accuracy, load regulation and line regulation. Generally:

summation of the individual rejections of the error amplifier, reference and AC leakage through the series pass transistor. The specification, in
the form of a typical attenuation plot with respect to frequency, shows up the gain bandwidth compromises forced upon the designer in low
quiescent current conditions. Generally:
V OUT
V IN
PSSR = 20Log ---------------- dB using lower case  to indicate AC values
(EQ 14)
Power supply rejection ratio is fixed by the internal design of the regulator. Additional rejection must be provided externally.

Output Capacitor ESR
The series regulator is a negative feedback amplifier, and as such is conditionally stable. The ESR of the output capacitor is usually used to
cancel one of the open loop poles of the error amplifier in order to produce a single pole response. Excessive ESR values may actually cause
instability by excessive changes to the closed loop unity gain frequency crossover point. The range of ESR values for stability is usually shown
either by a plot of stable ESR versus load current, or a limit statement in the datasheet.
Some ceramic capacitors exhibit large capacitance and ESR variations with temperature. Z5U and Y5V capacitors may be required to ensure
stability at temperatures below TAMB = -10ºC. With X7R or X5R capacitors, a 2.2µF capacitor should be sufficient at all operating temperatures.
Larger output capacitor values (10µF max) help to reduce noise and improve load transient-response, stability and power-supply rejection.
9.6.3
Input Capacitor
An input capacitor at VIN is required for stability. It is recommended that a 1.0µF capacitor be connected between the AS1363 power supply
input pin VIN and ground (capacitance value may be increased without limit subject to ESR limits). This capacitor must be located at a distance
of not more than 1cm from the VIN pin and returned to a clean analog ground. Any good quality ceramic, tantalum, or film capacitor may be used
at the input.
9.6.4
Noise
The regulator output is a DC voltage with noise superimposed on the output. The noise comes from three sources; the reference, the error
amplifier input stage, and the output voltage setting resistors. Noise is a random fluctuation and if not minimized in some applications, will
produce system problems.
9.6.5
Transient Response
The series regulator is a negative feedback system, and therefore any change at the output will take a finite time to be corrected by the error
loop. This “propagation time” is related to the bandwidth of the error loop. The initial response to an output transient comes from the output
capacitance, and during this time, ESR is the dominant mechanism causing voltage transients at the output. More generally:
V TRANSIENT = I OUTPUT  R ESR
Units are Volts, Amps, Ohms.
(EQ 15)
Thus an initial +50mA change of output current will produce a -12mV transient when the ESR=240m. Remember to keep the ESR within
stability recommendations when reducing ESR by adding multiple parallel output capacitors.
After the initial ESR transient, there follows a voltage droop during the time that the LDO feedback loop takes to respond to the output change.
This drift is approx. linear in time and sums with the ESR contribution to make a total transient variation at the output of:
T
V TRANSIENT = I OUTPUT   R ESR + ----------------

C LOAD
Units are Volts, Seconds, Farads, Ohms.
(EQ 16)
Where:
CLOAD is output capacitor
T = Propagation delay of the LDO
This shows why it is convenient to increase the output capacitor value for a better support for fast load changes. Of course the formula holds for
t < “propagation time”, so that a faster LDO needs a smaller cap at the load to achieve a similar transient response. For instance 50mA load
current step produces 50mV output drop if the LDO response is 1usec and the load cap is 1µF.
There is also a steady state error caused by the finite output impedance of the regulator. This is derived from the load regulation specification
discussed above.

Turn On Time
This specification defines the time taken for the LDO to awake from shutdown. The time is measured from the release of the enable pin to the
time that the output voltage is within 5% of the final value. It assumes that the voltage at VIN is stable and within the regulator Min and Max limits.
Shutdown reduces the quiescent current to very low, mostly leakage values (<1µA).
9.6.7
Thermal Protection
To prevent operation under extreme fault conditions, such as a permanent short circuit at the output, thermal protection is built into the device.
Die temperature is measured, and when a 170ºC (AS1363) threshold is reached, the device enters shutdown. When the die cools sufficiently, the
device will restart (assuming input voltage exists and the device is enabled). Hysteresis of 20ºC prevents low frequency oscillation between startup and shutdown around the temperature threshold.
