G 9/14 APPLICATION NOTES OUTPUT VOLTAGE LOAD REGULATION The MSK5972RH develops a nominal 1.25V reference voltage between the output and adjustment terminal. The reference voltage is dropped across program resistor R1 and, since the voltage is constant, a constant current then flows through the output set resistor R2. Since the current from the adjustment terminal represents an error in the programmed output voltage, the MSK5972RH was designed to minimize IADJ and make it very constant with line and load changes. To do this, all quiescent operating current is returned to the output establishing a minimum load current requirement. If there is insufficient load on the output, the output will rise. Figure 1 shows the output voltage calculations. The MSK5972RH is capable of providing extremely good load regulation but a few precautions are needed to obtain maximum performance. The current set resistor connected between the adjustment terminal and the output terminal should be tied directly to the output pin as close to the case of the regulator as possible rather than near the load. This eliminates package pin and trace drops from appearing effectively in series with the reference and degrading regulation. For example, a 5V regulator with 0.05Ω resistance between the regulator and the current set resistor will droop 225mV at 1A due to package pin and trace resistance. The amount of droop can be calculated as follows: (VOUT at 5mA) - (1.250-(0.05Ω*IL))*(1+R2/R1). The ground of R2 can be returned near the ground of the load to provide remote ground sensing and improve load regulation. Figure 2A shows the effect of resistance between the regulator and 240Ω set resistor. FIGURE 1 FIGURE 2A (Degraded Regulation) EXTERNAL CAPACITORS Input bypassing with a 1uF tantalum in parallel with a 0.1uF ceramic on the input is suitable in most applications. To maximize transient response and minimize input supply transients more input capacitance can be added. The adjustment terminal can be bypassed to ground on the MSK5972RH to improve ripple rejection. This bypass capacitor prevents ripple from being amplified at higher output voltages. The impedance of the adjust pin capacitor at the ripple frequency should be less than the value of R1. For most application a 10μF bypass capacitor will provide sufficient ripple rejection at any output level. Increases over 10μF do not appreciably improve the ripple rejection at frequencies above 120Hz. Output bypassing with 1μF low ESR tantalum in parallel with a 0.1μF ceramic attached as close to the regulator's output as possible is best. This will effectively lower the regulator output impedance, increase transient response and eliminate any oscillations. Any increase of the load capacitance larger than 1μF will merely improve the loop stability and output impedance. See Figure 3 for typical application schematic. FIGURE 2B (Best Case Regulation) 3 8548-131 Rev. G 9/14 APPLICATION NOTES CONT'D INPUT VOLTAGE HEAT SINKING The MSK5972RH can operate over a wide input voltage range. VIN minimum=VOUT+dropout to a (VIN-VOUT) maximum of 40V. When operating near the minimum input voltage level sufficient overhead must be maintained to eliminate the regulator from dropping out of regulation, reference the dropout curves in the typical performance section. The input level also effects the maximum current that the MSK5972RH can supply, this too can be found in the typical performance section. Dropout, output current and power dissipation must all be considered when selecting the input line level. To determine if a heat sink is required for your application and if so, what type, refer to the thermal model and governing equation below. Governing Equation: Tj = Pd x (Rθjc + Rθcs + Rθsa) + Ta WHERE Tj = Junction Temperature Pd = Total Power Dissipation Rθjc= Junction to Case Thermal Resistance Rθcs= Case to Heat Sink Thermal Resistance Rθsa = Heat Sink to Ambient Thermal Resistance Tc = Case Temperature Ta = Ambient Temperature Ts = Heat Sink Temperature PROTECTION DIODES When external capacitors are used with any IC regulator it is sometimes necessary to add protection diodes to prevent the capacitors from discharging through low current points into the regulator. Most 10μF capacitors have low enough internal series resistance to deliver 20A spikes when shorted. Although the surge is short, there is enough energy to stress MSK5972RH. When an output capacitor is connected to a regulator and the input is shorted or crowbarred, the output capacitor will discharge into the output of the regulator. The discharge current depends on the value of the capacitor, the output voltage of the regulator, and the rate of decrease of VIN. Figure 3 shows an MSK5972RH with protection diodes included. D2 is only required if the adjust pin has external capacitance tied to it . EXAMPLE: This example demonstrates an analysis on a 10V regulator where the output current is at 0.5 amp and the input is 15V. Conditions for MSK5972RH: VIN = +15V; Iout = 0.5A 1.) Assume 45° heat spreading model. 2.) Find regulator power dissipation: Pd = (VIN - VOUT)(Iout) Pd = (15V-10V)(0.5A) Pd = 2.5W 3.) For conservative design, set Tj = +125°C Max. 4.) For this example, worst case Ta= +90°C. 5.) Rθjc = 4.5°C/W from the Electrical Specification Table. 6.) Rθcs= 0.15°C/W for most thermal greases. 7.) Rearrange governing equation to solve for Rθsa: Rθsa=((Tj - Ta)/Pd) - (Rθjc) - (Rθcs) = (125°C-90°C)/2.5W - 4.5°C/W - 0.15°C/ = 9.3°C/W In this case the result is 9.3°C/W. Therefore, a heat sink with a thermal resistance of no more than 9.3°C/W must be used in this application to maintain regulator circuit junction temperature under 125°C.
