20mA of output current with a dropout voltage of 350mV.
Designed for use in battery-powered or high voltage systems, the low quiescent current (7µA operating) makes
the LT3014B an ideal choice. Quiescent current is also
well controlled in dropout.

Other features of the LT3014B include the ability to operate
with very small output capacitors. The regulators are stable
with only 0.47µF on the output while most older devices
require between 10µF and 100µF for stability. Small ceramic
capacitors can be used without the necessary addition of
ESR as is common with other regulators. Internal protection circuitry includes reverse-battery protection, current
limiting, thermal limiting and reverse current protection.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: The LT3014B is tested and specified for these conditions with the
ADJ pin connected to the OUT pin.
Note 3: Operating conditions are limited by maximum junction
temperature. The regulated output voltage specification will not apply
for all possible combinations of input voltage and output current. When
operating at maximum input voltage, the output current range must be
limited. When operating at maximum output current, the input voltage
range must be limited.
Note 4: To satisfy requirements for minimum input voltage, the LT3014B
is tested and specified for these conditions with an external resistor
divider (249k bottom, 392k top) for an output voltage of 3.3V. The external
resistor divider adds a 5µA DC load on the output.
Note 5: Dropout voltage is the minimum input to output voltage differential
needed to maintain regulation at a specified output current. In dropout, the
output voltage is equal to (VIN – VDROPOUT).

Note 6: GND pin current is tested with VIN = VOUT (nominal) and a current
source load. This means the device is tested while operating in its dropout
region. This is the worst-case GND pin current. The GND pin current
decreases slightly at higher input voltages.
Note 7: ADJ pin bias current flows into the ADJ pin.
Note 8: Reverse output current is tested with the IN pin grounded and the
OUT pin forced to the rated output voltage. This current flows into the OUT
pin and out of the GND pin.
Note 9: The LT3014B is tested and specified under pulse load conditions
such that TJ @ TA. The LT3014BE is 100% tested at TA = 25°C.
Performance at –40°C to 125°C is assured by design, characterization,
and statistical process controls. The LT3014BI is guaranteed over the full
–40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range. The LT3014BMP is
100% tested and guaranteed over the –55°C to 125°C operating junction
temperature range.
Note 10: This IC includes overtemperature protection that is intended
to protect the device during momentary overload conditions. Junction
temperature will exceed 125°C when overtemperature protection is active.
Continuous operation above the specified maximum operating junction
temperature may impair device reliability.

PIN FUNCTIONS
(SOT-23 Package/DD Package)
IN (Pin 1/Pin 8): Input. Power is supplied to the device
through the IN pin. A bypass capacitor is required on this
pin if the device is more than six inches away from the main
input filter capacitor. In general, the output impedance of
a battery rises with frequency, so it is advisable to include
a bypass capacitor in battery-powered circuits. A bypass
capacitor in the range of 0.1µF to 10µF is sufficient. The
LT3014B is designed to withstand reverse voltages on
the IN pin with respect to ground and the OUT pin. In the
case of a reversed input, which can happen if a battery is
plugged in backwards, the LT3014B will act as if there is
a diode in series with its input. There will be no reverse
current flow into the LT3014B and no reverse voltage
will appear at the load. The device will protect both itself
and the load.
GND (Pin 2/Pins 4, 9): Ground.
ADJ (Pin 4/Pin 2): Adjust. This is the input to the error
amplifier. This pin is internally clamped to ±7V. It has a bias
current of 4nA which flows into the pin (see curve of ADJ
Pin Bias Current vs Temperature in the Typical Performance
Characteristics). The ADJ pin voltage is 1.22V referenced
to ground, and the output voltage range is 1.22V to 60V.
OUT (Pin 5/Pin 1): Output. The output supplies power to
the load. A minimum output capacitor of 0.47µF is required
to prevent oscillations. Larger output capacitors will be
required for applications with large transient loads to limit
peak voltage transients. See the Applications Information
section for more information on output capacitance and
reverse output characteristics.
NC (Pin 3/Pins 3, 5, 6, 7): No Connect. No Connect pins
may be floated, tied to IN or tied to GND.

LT3014B
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Adjustable Operation
The LT3014B has an output voltage range of 1.22V to
60V. The output voltage is set by the ratio of two external
resistors as shown in Figure 1. The device servos the
output to maintain the voltage at the adjust pin at 1.22V
referenced to ground. The current in R1 is then equal to
1.22V/R1 and the current in R2 is the current in R1 plus
the ADJ pin bias current. The ADJ pin bias current, 4nA
at 25°C, flows through R2 into the ADJ pin. The output
voltage can be calculated using the formula in Figure 1.
The value of R1 should be less than 1.62M to minimize
errors in the output voltage caused by the ADJ pin bias
current. The device is tested and specified with the ADJ pin
tied to the OUT pin and a 5µA DC load (unless otherwise
specified) for an output voltage of 1.22V. Specifications
for output voltages greater than 1.22V will be proportional to the ratio of the desired output voltage to 1.22V
(VOUT/1.22V). For example, load regulation for an output
current change of 1mA to 20mA is –13mV typical at VOUT
= 1.22V. At VOUT = 12V, load regulation is:
(12V/1.22V) • (–13mV) = –128mV

Output Capacitance and Transient Response
The LT3014B is designed to be stable with a wide range of
output capacitors. The ESR of the output capacitor affects
stability, most notably with small capacitors. A minimum
output capacitor of 0.47µF with an ESR of 3Ω or less is
recommended to prevent oscillations. The LT3014B is a
micropower device and output transient response will be
a function of output capacitance. Larger values of output
capacitance decrease the peak deviations and provide
improved transient response for larger load current
changes. Bypass capacitors, used to decouple individual
components powered by the LT3014B, will increase the
effective output capacitor value.
Extra consideration must be given to the use of ceramic
capacitors. Ceramic capacitors are manufactured with a
variety of dielectrics, each with different behavior across
temperature and applied voltage. The most common
dielectrics used are specified with EIA temperature characteristic codes of Z5U, Y5V, X5R and X7R. The Z5U and
Y5V dielectrics are good for providing high capacitances
in a small package, but they tend to have strong voltage
and temperature coefficients as shown in Figures 2 and 3.
When used with a 5V regulator, a 16V 10µF Y5V capacitor
can exhibit an effective value as low as 1µF to 2µF for the
DC bias voltage applied and over the operating temperature range. The X5R and X7R dielectrics result in more
stable characteristics and are more suitable for use as the
output capacitor. The X7R type has better stability across
temperature, while the X5R is less expensive and is avail20

The LT3014B is a 20mA high voltage, low dropout regulator with micropower quiescent current. The device is
capable of supplying 20mA at a dropout voltage of 350mV.
Operating quiescent current is only 7µA. In addition to
the low quiescent current, the LT3014B incorporates
several protection features which make it ideal for use in
battery-powered systems. The device is protected against
both reverse input and reverse output voltages. In battery
backup applications where the output can be held up by
a backup battery when the input is pulled to ground, the
LT3014B acts like it has a diode in series with its output
and prevents reverse current flow.

able in higher values. Care still must be exercised when
using X5R and X7R capacitors; the X5R and X7R codes
only specify operating temperature range and maximum
capacitance change over temperature. Capacitance change
due to DC bias with X5R and X7R capacitors is better than
Y5V and Z5U capacitors, but can still be significant enough
to drop capacitor values below appropriate levels. Capacitor DC bias characteristics tend to improve as component
case size increases, but expected capacitance at operating
voltage should be verified.
Voltage and temperature coefficients are not the only
sources of problems. Some ceramic capacitors have a
piezoelectric response. A piezoelectric device generates
voltage across its terminals due to mechanical stress,
similar to the way a piezoelectric accelerometer or microphone works. For a ceramic capacitor the stress can be
induced by vibrations in the system or thermal transients.
The LT3014B regulator has internal thermal limiting designed to protect the device during overload conditions.
For continuous normal conditions the maximum junction
temperature rating of 125°C must not be exceeded. It is
important to give careful consideration to all sources of
thermal resistance from junction to ambient. Additional
heat sources mounted nearby must also be considered.
For surface mount devices, heat sinking is accomplished
by using the heat spreading capabilities of the PC board
and its copper traces. Copper board stiffeners and plated
through-holes can also be used to spread the heat generated by power devices.
The following table lists thermal resistance for several
different board sizes and copper areas. All measurements
were taken in still air on 3/32” FR-4 board with one ounce
copper.

LT3014B
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Continuous operation at large input/output voltage differentials and maximum load current is not practical due
to thermal limitations. Transient operation at high input/
output differentials is possible. The approximate thermal
time constant for a 2500sq mm 3/32" FR-4 board with
maximum topside and backside area for one ounce copper is 3 seconds. This time constant will increase as more
thermal mass is added (i.e. vias, larger board, and other
components).
For an application with transient high power peaks, average
power dissipation can be used for junction temperature
calculations as long as the pulse period is significantly less
than the thermal time constant of the device and board.
Calculating Junction Temperature
Example 1: Given an output voltage of 5V, an input voltage range of 24V to 30V, an output current range of 0mA
to 20mA, and a maximum ambient temperature of 50°C,
what will the maximum junction temperature be?
The power dissipated by the device will be equal to:
IOUT(MAX) • (VIN(MAX) – VOUT) + (IGND • VIN(MAX))
Example 2: Given an output voltage of 5V, an input voltage
of 48V that rises to 72V for 5ms(max) out of every 100ms,
and a 5mA load that steps to 20mA for 50ms out of every
250ms, what is the junction temperature rise above ambient? Using a 500ms period (well under the time constant
of the board), power dissipation is as follows:
P1(48V in, 5mA load) =5mA • (48V – 5V)
+ (100µA • 48V) = 0.22W
P2(48V in, 20mA load) = 20mA • (48V – 5V)
+ (0.55mA • 48V) = 0.89W
P3(72V in, 5mA load) =5mA • (72V – 5V)
+ (100µA • 72V) = 0.34W
P4(72V in, 20mA load) =20mA • (72V – 5V)
+ (0.55mA • 72V) = 1.38W
Operation at the different power levels is as follows:
76% operation at P1, 19% for P2, 4% for P3, and 1% for P4.
P­EFF = 76%(0.22W) + 19%(0.89W) + 4%(0.34W)
+ 1%(1.38W) = 0.36W
IOUT(MAX) = 20mA
With a thermal resistance in the range of 40°C/W to
62°C/W, this translates to a junction temperature rise
above ambient of 20°C.
VIN(MAX) = 30V
Protection Features
where:
IGND at (IOUT = 20mA, VIN = 30V) = 0.55mA
So:
P = 20mA • (30V – 5V) + (0.55mA • 30V) = 0.52W
The thermal resistance for the DFN package will be in the
range of 40°C/W to 62°C/W depending on the copper
area. So the junction temperature rise above ambient will
be approximately equal to:
0.52W • 50°C/W = 26°C
The maximum junction temperature will then be equal to
the maximum junction temperature rise above ambient
plus the maximum ambient temperature or:
TJMAX = 50°C + 26°C = 76°C
The LT3014B incorporates several protection features
which make it ideal for use in battery-powered circuits.
In addition to the normal protection features associated
with monolithic regulators, such as current limiting and
thermal limiting, the device is protected against reverseinput voltages, and reverse voltages from output to input.
Current limit protection and thermal overload protection
are intended to protect the device against current overload
conditions at the output of the device. For normal operation, the junction temperature should not exceed 125°C.
The input of the device will withstand reverse voltages of
80V. Current flow into the device will be limited to less
than 6mA (typically less than 100µA) and no negative

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The ADJ pin can be pulled above or below ground by as
much as 7V without damaging the device. If the input is
left open circuit or grounded, the ADJ pin will act like an
open circuit when pulled below ground, and like a large
resistor (typically 100k) in series with a diode when pulled
above ground. If the input is powered by a voltage source,
pulling the ADJ pin below the reference voltage will cause
the device to current limit. This will cause the output to
go to an unregulated high voltage. Pulling the ADJ pin
above the reference voltage will turn off all output current.
In situations where the ADJ pin is connected to a resistor
divider that would pull the ADJ pin above its 7V clamp voltage if the output is pulled high, the ADJ pin input current
must be limited to less than 5mA. For example, a resistor
divider is used to provide a regulated 1.5V output from
the 1.22V reference when the output is forced to 60V.
The top resistor of the resistor divider must be chosen to
limit the current into the ADJ pin to less than 5mA when
the ADJ pin is at 7V. The 53V difference between the OUT
and ADJ pins divided by the 5mA maximum current into
the ADJ pin yields a minimum top resistor value of 10.6k.
In circuits where a backup battery is required, several
different input/output conditions can occur. The output
voltage may be held up while the input is either pulled
to ground, pulled to some intermediate voltage, or is left
open circuit. Current flow back into the output will follow
the curve shown in Figure 4. The rise in reverse output
current above 7V occurs from the breakdown of the 7V
clamp on the ADJ pin. With a resistor divider on the
regulator output, this current will be reduced depending
on the size of the resistor divider.
When the IN pin of the LT3014B is forced below the OUT
pin or the OUT pin is pulled above the IN pin, input current will typically drop to less than 2µA. This can happen
if the input of the LT3014B is connected to a discharged
(low voltage) battery and the output is held up by either
a backup battery or a second regulator circuit.
