DESCRIPTION
The VRG8663 consists of a Negative Adjustable (RH1185) LDO voltage regulator capable of supplying 3.0
Amps over the output voltage range as defined under recommended operating conditions. The VRG8663 offers
excellent line and load regulation specifications and ripple rejection. Dropout (VIN - VOUT) decreases at lower load
currents.
The VRG8663 serves a wide variety of applications including High Efficiency Linear Regulators, Post Regulators for
Switching Supplies, Constant Current Regulators, Battery Chargers and Microprocessor Supply.
The VRG8663 has been specifically designed to meet exposure to radiation environments and is configured for a
SMD power package. It is guaranteed operational from -55°C to +125°C. Available screened to MIL-STD-883, the
VRG8663 is ideal for demanding military and space applications.

Notes:
1/ Meets ESD testing per MIL-STD-883, method 3015, Class 2.
2/ Specifications derated to reflect Total Dose exposure to 100 krad(Si) @ +25°C.
3/ Not tested. Shall be guaranteed by design, characterization, or correlation to other tested parameters.
4/ Dropout voltage is tested by reducing input voltage until the output drops 1% below its nominal value. Tests are done at 0.5A and 3A. The power
transistor looks basically like a pure resistance in this range so that minimum differential at any intermediate current can be calculated by
interpolation; VDROPOUT = 0.25V + (0.25 x IOUT). For load current less than 0.5A, see Figure 3.
5/ “Minimum input voltage” is limited by base emitter voltage drive of the power transistor section, not saturation as measured in Note 4. For output
voltages below 4V, “minimum input voltage” specification may limit dropout voltage before transistor saturation limitation.
6/ Supply current is measured on the ground pin, and does not include load current, RLIM, or output divider current.
7/ The 25W power level is guaranteed for an input-output voltage of 8.3V to 17V. At lower voltages the 3Amp limit applies, and at higher voltages
the internal power limiting may restrict regulator power below 25W.
8/ Line and load regulation are measured on a pulse basis with a pulse width of 2ms, to minimize heating. DC regulation will be affected by thermal
regulation and temperature coefficient of the reference.
9/ VSAT is the maximum specified dropout voltage: 0.25V + (0.25 x IOUT).
10/ Current limit is programmed with a resistor from REF pin to GND pin. RLIM = 15k/ILIM.
11/ Pulsed @<10% duty cycle @25°C.

The maximum Power dissipation is limited by the thermal shutdown function of the regulator chip in the VRG8663. The graph
above represents the achievable power before the chip shuts down. The line in the graph represents the maximum power
dissipation of the VRG8663 This graph is based on the maximum junction temperature of 150°C and a thermal resistance (JC) of
3°C/W.

+
The RH1185 output voltage is set by two external resistors. The
internal reference voltage is trimmed to 2.37V so that a standard
1% 2.37k resistor (R1) can be used to set divider current at 1mA.
R2 is then selected from:
(VOUT - 2.37) R1
VREF
for R1 = 2.37k and VREF = 2.37V, this reduces to:
R2 =
R2 = VOUT - 2.37

*R1 should be connected directly to ground lead, not to the load, so
that ra = 0 . This limits the output voltage error to (IGND)(rb). Errors
created by ra are multiplied by (1 + R2/R1). Note that VOUT increases
with increasing ground pin current. R2 should be connected directly to
load for remote sensing. C1 = C2 Š 2µF Tantalum.
