PIN FUNCTIONS
OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
VIN - This pin provides power to all internal circuitry including bias, start-up, thermal limit and overcurrent latch.
Input voltage range is 2.9V to 6.5V.
Low ESR output capacitors are required to maintain regulation and stability. Four CWR29FB227 (AVX PN
TAZH227K010L) tantalum capacitors in parallel with ceramic decoupling capacitors (0.1μF typical) provides sufficient gain and phase margin for most applications. The
maximum ESR specification for the CWR29FB227 capacitor is 180mΩ at 100kHz and is sufficient for many applications. MSK has found through full WCCA that screening for a maximum ESR of 57mΩ ensures EOL stability
criteria to be met for many applications with the most
stringent requirements. The typical ESR of the
TAZH227K010L from AVX is 49mΩ . Analysis of the final
design is recommended to ensure stability requirements
are met.
GND - Internally connected to ground, this pin should be
connected externally by the user to the circuit ground.
SHUTDOWN - There are two functions to the SHUTDOWN
pin. It may be used to disable the output voltage or to
reset a current latch condition. To activate the shutdown/
reset functions the user must apply a voltage greater than
1.6V to the SHUTDOWN pin. The voltage applied to the SHUTDOWN pin can be greater than the input voltage. The output
voltage will turn on when the SHUTDOWN pin is pulled below the threshold voltage. If the SHUTDOWN pin is not used,
it should be connected to ground. It should be noted that
with the shutdown pin tied to ground, a current latch condition can only be reset by cycling power off, then on.
VOUT - This is the output pin for the device.
ADJUST - The ADJUST pin is the inverting input of the
internal error amplifier. The non-inverting input is connected to an internal 1.265V reference. This error amplifier controls the drive to the output transistor to force the
ADJUST pin to 1.265V. An external resistor divider is
connected to the output, ADJUST pin and ground to set
the output voltage.
OVERCURRENT LATCH
Overcurrent protection is provided by the MSK5821RH
series through the use of a timed latch off circuit. The
internal latch timeout is triggered by an overcurrent condition. To allow for start up surge currents, the timeout is
approximately 5.5mS at 25°C. If the overcurrent condition remains at the end of the timeout cycle, the regulator
will latch off until the latch is reset. Reset the latch by
pulling the shutdown pin high or cycling VIN off then back
on. A thermal limit condition will trigger the latch with no
time out delay.
FIGURE 1
CURRENT LIMIT AND SOA
The MSK5821RH current limit function is directly affected
by the input and output voltages. Figure 1 illustrates the relationship between VIN and ICL for various output voltages. It
is very important for the user to consult the SOA curve when
using input voltages which result in current limit conditions
beyond 4.5 Amps. When using input voltages which result in
current limit above 4.5 Amps, the user must maintain output
current within the SOA curve to avoid damage to the device.
Note that 5 Amp maximum is due to current carrying capability of the internal wirebonds.
INPUT POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
To maximize transient response and minimize power
supply transients it is recommended that two 47μF tantalum capacitors are connected between VIN and ground.
A 0.1μF ceramic capacitor should also be used for high
frequency bypassing. See typical application circuit.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS CIRCUIT
APPLICATION NOTES CONT.
THERMAL LIMITING
The MSK5821RH control circuitry has a thermal shutdown
temperature of approximately 150°C. This thermal shutdown can be used as a protection feature, but for continuous operation, the junction temperature of the pass transistor must be maintained below 150°C. Proper heat sink
selection is essential to maintain these conditions. Exceeding the thermal limit activates the latch feature of the
MSK5821RH. Toggle the shutdown pin high then low or
cycle power to reset the latch. See SHUTDOWN pin description and overcurrent latch description for more information.
HEAT SINK SELECTION
To select a heat sink for the MSK5821RH, the following
formula for convective heat flow may be used.

A good starting point for this output voltage selection is
to set R2=1K. By rearranging the formula it is simple to
calculate the final R1 value.

Power Dissipation=(VIN-VOUT) x IOUT
START UP CURRENT
Next, the user must select a maximum junction temperature. The absolute maximum allowable junction temperature is 150°C. The equation may now be rearranged
to solve for the required heat sink to ambient thermal
resistance (RθSA).
The MSK5821RH sinks increased current during startup
to bring up the output voltage. Reference the "Saturated
Drive Current vs. Input Voltage" graph in the typical performance curves of this data sheet and the "Understanding Startup Surge Current With MS Kennedy's RH1573
Based Rad Hard LDO Regulators" application note in the
application notes section of the MS Kennedy Web site
for more information.
http://www.mskennedy.com/
Example:
An MSK5821RH is connected for VIN=+3.3V and
VOUT=+2.5V. IOUT is a continuous 3A DC level. The
ambient temperature is +25°C. The maximum desired
junction temperature is +125°C.

Radiation performance curves for TID testing have been
generated for all radiation testing performed by MS
Kennedy. These curves show performance trends throughout the TID test process and can be located in the
MSK5810RH radiation test report. The complete radiation

In this example, a heat sink with a thermal resistance
of no more than 38.6°C/W must be used to maintain a
junction temperature of no more than 125°C.

GAIN AND PHASE RESPONSE
The gain and phase response curves are for the MSK typical application circuit at 25°C and are representative of
typical device performance, but are for reference only. The performance should be analyzed for each application to
insure individual program requirements are met. External factors such as temperature, input and output voltages,
capacitors, etc. all can be major contributors. Please consult factory for additional details.
