ZSPM4141
Ultra-Low-Power Linear Regulator w/ Minimal Quiescent Current Technology
Brief Description
Benefits
The ZSPM4141 is an ultra-low-power linear regulator optimized for minimal quiescent current losses
via advanced, proprietary technology. It can improve
energy efficiency and reduce heat due to power
dissipation because it draws low nA-level quiescent
current for light loads, yet it can regulate current
loads as high as 200mA. The linear regulated output
voltage is factory-configured to an option from 1.2V
to 4.2V in 100mV steps. The ZSPM4141 also provides over-current protection.

Multi-Layer PCB Layout
The following are guidelines for mounting the exposed pad ZSPM4141 on a multi-layer PCB with ground a plane.
In a multi-layer board application, the thermal vias are the primary method of heat transfer from the package
thermal pad to the internal ground plane. The efficiency of this method depends on several factors, including die
area, number of thermal vias, and thickness of copper, etc.

Figure 6.4 is a representation of how the heat can be conducted away from the die using an exposed pad
package. Each application will have different requirements and limitations, and therefore the user should use
sufficient copper to dissipate the power in the system. The output current rating for the linear regulators might
need to be de-rated for ambient temperatures above 85°C. The de-rated value will depend on calculated worstcase power dissipation and the thermal management implementation in the application.

Single-Layer PCB Layout
Layout recommendation for a single-layer PCB: utilize as much copper area for power management as possible.
In a single-layer board application, the thermal pad is attached to a heat spreader (copper areas) by using a low
thermal impedance attachment method (solder paste or thermal conductive epoxy).
In both of the methods mentioned above, it is advisable to use as much copper trace as possible to dissipate the
heat.

Important: If the attachment method is NOT implemented correctly, the functionality of the product is not
guaranteed. Power dissipation capability will be adversely affected if the device is incorrectly mounted onto the
circuit board.
