DATASHEET
High Performance 1A Linear Regulator with
Programmable Current Limiting
ISL80101A
Features
The ISL80101A is a low dropout voltage, single output LDO
with programmable current limiting. This LDO operates from
input voltages of 2.2V to 6V, and is capable of providing output
voltages of 0.8V to 5V. Other custom voltage options are
available upon request.
• ±2% VADJ accuracy guaranteed over line, load and
TJ = -40°C to +125°C
• Very low 212mV dropout voltage at VIN = 4.5V
• High accuracy current limit programmable up to 1.75A
• Very fast transient response
A submicron BiCMOS process is utilized for this product family
to deliver the best-in-class analog performance and overall
value. The programmable current limiting improves system
reliability of end applications. An external capacitor on the
soft-start pin provides an adjustable soft-starting ramp. The
ENABLE feature allows the part to be placed into a low
quiescent current shutdown mode.
• 100µVRMS output noise
• Power-good output
• Programmable soft-start
• Over-temperature protection
• Small 10 Ld DFN package
This CMOS LDO will consume significantly lower quiescent
current as a function of load compared to bipolar LDOs, which
translates into higher efficiency and packages with smaller
footprints. Quiescent current is modestly compromised to
achieve a very fast load transient response.

ISL80101A
Functional Description
Input Voltage Requirements
ISL80101A is capable of delivering output voltages from 0.8V to
5.0V. Due to the nature of an LDO, VIN must be some margin
higher than VOUT plus dropout at the maximum rated current of
the application if active filtering (PSRR) is expected from VIN to
VOUT. The generous dropout specification of this family of LDOs
allows applications to design for a level of efficiency that can
accommodate profiles smaller than the TO220/263.
Programmable Current Limit
The ISL80101A protects against overcurrent due to short circuit
and overload conditions applied to the output. When this
happens, the LDO performs as a constant current source. If the
short circuit or overload condition is removed, the output returns
to normal voltage regulation operation.
The current limit is set at 1.62A by default when the ISET pin is
left floating.
This limit can be increased by tying a resistor RSET from the ISET
pin to ground. The current limit is determined by RSET as shown
in Equation 1. Do not short this pin to ground. Increasing the
current limit past 1.75A may cause damage to the part and is
highly discouraged.

I LIMIT  1.62 + ---------------------------R SET  k 
(EQ. 1)
The current limit can be decreased from the 1.62A default by
tying RSET from the ISET pin to VIN. The current limit is then
determined by both RSET and VIN following Equation 2.

not be left floating, and should be tied to VIN if not used. A 1kΩ to
10kΩ pull-up resistor is required for applications that use open
collector or open drain outputs to control the ENABLE pin. The
ENABLE pin may be connected directly to VIN for applications
with outputs that are always on.
Power-good Operation
PG is a logic output that indicates the status of VOUT, current limit
tripping, and VIN. The PG flag is an open-drain NMOS that can sink
up to 10mA during a fault condition. The PG pin requires an
external pull-up resistor typically connected to the VOUT pin. The PG
pin should not be pulled up to a voltage source greater than VIN.
PG goes low when the output voltage drops below 84% of the
nominal output voltage, the current limit faults, or the input
voltage is too low. PG functions during shutdown, but not during
thermal shutdown. For applications not using this feature, connect
this pin to ground.
Soft-start Operation
The soft-start circuit controls the rate at which the output voltage
rises up to regulation at power-up or LDO enable. This start-up
ramp time can be set by adding an external capacitor from the
SS pin to ground. An internal 2µA current source charges up this
CSS and the feedback reference voltage is clamped to the
voltage across it. The start-up time is set by Equation 3.
 C SS x0.5 
T start = ----------------------------2A
(EQ. 3)
Equation 4 determines the CSS required for a specific start-up inrush
current, where VOUT is the output voltage, COUT is the total
capacitance on the output and IINRUSH is the desired inrush current.
 V OUT xC OUT x2A 
C SS = --------------------------------------------------------I INRUSH x0.5V
(EQ. 4)
The external capacitor is always discharged to ground at the
beginning of start-up or enabling.
Output Voltage Selection
An external resistor divider is used to scale the output voltage
relative to the internal reference voltage. This voltage is then fed
back to the error amplifier. The output voltage can be
programmed to any level between 0.8V and 5V. An external
resistor divider, R2 and R3, is used to set the output voltage as
shown in Equations 5 and 6. Please see Table 2 on page 9 for
recommended values of R2 and R3.

OUTPUT CAPACITOR
INPUT CAPACITOR
The ISL80101A applies state-of-the-art internal compensation to
keep the selection of the output capacitor simple for the
customer. Stable operation over full temperature, VIN range,
VOUT range and load extremes are guaranteed for all capacitor
types and values assuming a minimum of 10µF X5R/X7R is used
for local bypass on VOUT. This output capacitor must be
connected to the VOUT and GND pins of the LDO with PCB traces
no longer than 0.5cm.
For proper operation, a minimum capacitance of 10µF X5R/X7R
is required at the input. This ceramic input capacitor must be
connected to the VIN and GND pins of the LDO with PCB traces no
longer than 0.5cm.
There is a growing trend to use very-low ESR multilayer ceramic
capacitors (MLCC) because they can support fast load transients
and also bypass very high frequency noise from other sources.
However, the effective capacitance of MLCCs drops with applied
voltage, age and temperature. X7R and X5R dielectric ceramic
capacitors are strongly recommended as they typically maintain
a capacitance range within ±20% of nominal voltage over full
operating ratings of temperature and voltage.
Additional capacitors of any value in ceramic, POSCAP,
alum/tantalum electrolytic types may be placed in parallel to
improve PSRR at higher frequencies and/or load transient AC
output voltage tolerances.
Phase Boost Capacitor
A small phase boost capacitor, CPB, can be placed across the top
resistor, R3, in the feedback resistor divider network in order to
place a zero at:

Power Dissipation and Thermals
The junction temperature must not exceed the range specified in
the “Recommended Operating Conditions (Note 7)” on page 4.
The power dissipation can be calculated by using Equation 8:
P D =  V IN – V OUT   I OUT + V IN  I GND
The maximum allowable junction temperature, TJ(MAX) and the
maximum expected ambient temperature, TA(MAX) determine
the maximum allowable power dissipation, as shown in
Equation 9:
P D  MAX  =  T J  MAX  – T A    JA
Table 2 shows the recommended CPB, R3 and R2 for different
output voltage and ceramic COUT.
TABLE 2. RECOMMENDED CPB FOR DIFFERENT VOUT AND COUT
(EQ. 9)
JA is the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.
For safe operation, ensure that the power dissipation PD,
calculated from Equation 8, is less than the maximum allowable
power dissipation PD(MAX).
The DFN package uses the copper area on the PCB as a heat-sink.
The EPAD of this package must be soldered to the copper plane
(GND plane). Figure 14 shows a curve for the JA of the DFN
package for different copper area sizes.

This zero increases the crossover frequency of the LDO and
provides additional phase resulting in faster load transient
response.

JA (°C/W)
It is also important to note that the LDO stability and load
transient are affected by the type of output capacitor used. For
optimal result, empirical tuning is suggested for each specific
application.

The power level and the thermal impedance of the package
(+48°C/W for DFN) determine when the junction temperature
exceeds the thermal shutdown temperature. In the event that the die
temperature exceeds around +160°C, the output of the LDO will
shut down until the die temperature cools down to about +130°C.

General PowerPAD Design Considerations
Figure 15 shows the recommended use of vias on the thermal
pad to remove heat from the IC. This typical array populates the
thermal pad footprint with vias spaced three times the radius
distance from the center of each via. Small via size is advisable,
but not to the extent that solder reflow becomes difficult.
All vias should be connected to the pad potential, with low
thermal resistance for efficient heat transfer. Complete
connection of the plated-through hole to each plane is important.
It is not recommended to use “thermal relief” patterns to connect
the vias.
