The LT®3050 series are micro-power, low noise, low
dropout voltage (LDO) linear regulators. The devices
supply 100mA of output current with a dropout voltage of
340mV. A 10nF bypass capacitor reduces output noise to
30μVRMS in a 10Hz to 100kHz bandwidth and soft-starts
the reference. The LT3050’s ±45V input voltage rating
combined with its precision current limit and diagnostic
functions make the IC an ideal choice for robust, high
reliability applications.
A single resistor programs the LT3050’s current limit, accurate
to ±5% over a wide input voltage and temperature range.
A single resistor programs the LT3050’s minimum output
current monitor, useful for detecting open-circuit conditions.
The current monitor function sources a current equal to
1/100th of output current. A logic FAULT pin asserts low if
the LT3050 is in current limit, operating below its minimum
output current (open-circuit) or is in thermal shutdown.
The LT3050 optimizes stability and transient response
with low ESR ceramic capacitors, requiring a minimum of
2.2μF. The LT3050 is available in fixed output voltages of
3.3V and 5V, and as an adjustable version with an output
voltage range down to the 0.6V reference.The LT3050 is
available in the thermally-enhanced 12-Lead 3mm × 2mm
DFN and MSOP packages.

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. Absolute maximum input-to-output differential
voltage is not achievable with all combinations of rated IN pin and OUT pin
voltages. With the IN pin at 50V, the OUT pin may not be pulled below 0V.
The total differential voltage from IN to OUT must not exceed ±50V.
Note 2: The LT3050 is tested and specified under pulse load conditions
such that TJ ~ TA. The LT3050E is 100% production tested at TA = 25°C.
Performance at –40°C and 125°C is assured by design, characterization
and correlation with statistical process controls. The LT3050I is
guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature
range. The LT3050MP is 100% tested over the –55°C to 125°C operating
junction temperature range.
Note 3: The LT3050 adjustable version is tested and specified for these
conditions with ADJ pin connected to the OUT pin.
Note 4: Maximum junction temperature limits operating conditions.
Regulated output voltage specifications do not apply for all possible
combinations of input voltage and output current. If operating at the
maximum input voltage, limit the output current range. If operating at the
maximum output current, limit the input voltage range.
Note 5: Dropout voltage is the minimum differential IN-to-OUT voltage
needed to maintain regulation at a specified output current. In dropout,
the output voltage equals (VIN - VDROPOUT). For some output voltages,
minimum input voltage requirements limit dropout voltage.
Note 6: To satisfy minimum input voltage requirements, the LT3050
adjustable version is tested and specified for these conditions with an
external resistor divider (60k bottom, 440k top) which sets VOUT to 5V.
The external resistor divider adds 10μA of DC load on the output. This
external current is not factored into GND pin current.
Note 7: GND pin current is tested with VIN = VOUT(NOMINAL) + 0.6V and
a current source load. GND pin current increases in dropout. For the
fixed output voltage versions, an internal resistor divider adds about
10μA to GND pin current. See the GND Pin Current curves in the Typical
Performance Characteristics section.
Note 8: Current limit varies inversely with the external resistor value tied
from the IMAX pin to GND. For detailed information on how to set the
IMAX pin resistor value, please see the Operation section. If a programmed
current limit is not needed, the IMAX pin must be tied to GND and internal
protection circuitry implements short-circuit protection as specified.
Note 9: The IMIN fault condition asserts if the output current falls below the
IMIN threshold defined by an external resistor from the IMIN pin to GND.
For detailed information on how to set the IMIN pin resistor value, please
see the Operation section. IMIN settings below the Minimum IMIN Accuracy
specification in the Electrical Characteristics section are not guaranteed
to ± 10% tolerance. If the IMIN fault condition is not needed, the IMIN pin
must be left floating (unconnected).
Note 10: The current monitor ratio varies slightly when VIMON ≠ VOUT. For
detailed information on how to calculate the output current from the IMON
pin, please see the Operation section. If the current monitor function is not
needed, the IMON pin must be tied to GND.
Note 11: To satisfy requirements for minimum input voltage, current limit
is tested at VIN = VOUT(NOMINAL) +1V or VIN = 2.2V, whichever is greater.
Note 12: ADJ pin bias current flows out of the ADJ pin:
Note 13: SHDN pin current flows into the SHDN pin.
Note 14: Reverse output current is tested with the IN pin grounded and the
OUT pin forced to the specified voltage. This current flows into the OUT pin
and out of the GND pin.
Note 15: 100mA of output current does not apply to the full range of input
voltage due to the internal current limit foldback.
Note 16: The ADJ pin cannot be externally driven for fixed output voltage
options. LTC allows the use of a small feedforward capacitor from OUT
to ADJ to reduce noise and improve transient response. See the Bypass
Capacitance section of the Applications Information.

LT3050 Series
PIN FUNCTIONS
REF/BYP (Pin 1): Bypass/Soft-Start. Connecting a single
capacitor from this pin to GND bypasses the LT3050’s
reference noise and soft-starts the reference. A 10nF bypass capacitor typically reduces output voltage noise to
30μVRMS in a 10Hz to 100kHz bandwidth. Soft-start time
is directly proportional to the REF/BYP capacitor value.
If the LT3050 is placed in shutdown, REF/BYP is actively
pulled low by an internal device to reset soft-start. If low
noise or soft-start performance is not required, this pin
must be left floating (unconnected). Do not drive this pin
with any active circuitry. Because the REF/BYP pin is the
reference input to the error amplifier, stray capacitance at
this point should be minimized. Special attention should
be given to any stray capacitances that can couple external
signals onto the REF/BYP pin producing undesirable output
transients or ripple. A minimum REF/BYP capacitance of
100pF is recommended.
IMIN (Pin 2): Minimum Output Current Programming
Pin. This pin is the collector of a PNP current mirror that
outputs 1/200th of the power PNP load current. This pin
is also the input to the minimum output current fault comparator. Connecting a resistor between IMIN and GND sets
the minimum output current fault threshold. For detailed
information on how to set the IMIN pin resistor value,
please see the Operation section.
A small external decoupling capacitor (10nF minimum)
is required to improve IMIN PSRR. If minimum output
current programming is not required, the IMIN pin must
be left floating (unconnected).
FAULT (Pin 3): Fault Pin. This is an open collector logic
pin which asserts during current limit, thermal limit or
a minimum current fault condition. The maximum low
logic output level is defined for sinking 100μA of current.
Off state logic may be as high as 45V without damaging
internal circuitry regardless of the VIN used.
SHDN (Pin 4): Shutdown. Pulling the SHDN pin low puts
the LT3050 into a low power state and turns the output
off. Drive the SHDN pin with either logic or an open collector/drain with a pull-up resistor. The resistor supplies the
pull-up current to the open collector/drain logic, normally
several microamperes, and the SHDN pin current, typically less than 2μA. If unused, connect the SHDN pin to
IN. The LT3050 does not function if the SHDN pin is not
connected. The SHDN pin cannot be driven below GND
unless tied to the IN pin. If the SHDN pin is driven below
GND while IN is powered, the output may turn on. SHDN
pin logic cannot be referenced to a negative rail.
IN (Pin 5,6): Input. These pins supply power to the device.
The LT3050 requires a local IN bypass capacitor if it is
located more than six inches from the main input filter
capacitor. In general, battery output impedance rises
with frequency, so adding a bypass capacitor in battery
powered circuits is advisable. A minimum input of 1μF
generally suffices.
OUT (Pin 7,8): Output. These pins supply power to the
load. Stability requirements demand a minimum 2.2μF
ceramic output capacitor to prevent oscillations. Large
load transient applications require larger output capacitors to limit peak voltage transients. See the Applications
Information section for details on transient response and
reverse output characteristics. Permissible output voltage
range for the adjustable voltage version is 600mV to 44.5V.
The top of the resistor divider setting output voltage in
the fixed 3.3V and 5V versions connects directly to OUT
on the IC.
ADJ (Pin 9): Adjust. This pin is the error amplifier’s inverting
terminal. Its typical bias of 16nA current flows out of the
pin (see curve of ADJ Pin Bias Current vs. Temperature
in the Typical Performance Characteristics section). The
typical ADJ pin voltage is 600mV referenced to GND.
GND (PIN 10, Exposed Pad Pin 13): Ground. The exposed
pad of the DFN and MSOP packages is an electrical connection to GND. To ensure proper electrical and thermal
performance, solder Pin 13 to the PCB ground and tie
directly to Pin 10. Connect the bottom of the output voltage setting resistor divider directly to GND (Pin 10) for
optimum load regulation performance.
IMAX (Pin 11): Precision Current Limit Programming
Pin. This pin is the collector of a current mirror PNP that
is 1/200th the size of the output power PNP. This pin is
also the input to the current limit amplifier. Current limit
threshold is set by connecting a resistor between the IMAX
pin and GND.

LT3050 Series
PIN FUNCTIONS
For detailed information on how to set the IMAX pin resistor
value, please see the Operation section.
The IMAX pin requires a 10nF decoupling capacitor to
ground. If not used, tie IMAX to GND.
IMON (Pin 12): Output Current Monitor. This pin is the
collector of a PNP current mirror that outputs 1/100th
of the power PNP current. When OUT = IMON, the pin
current exactly equals 1/100th that of the output current.
For detailed information on how to calculate the output
current from the IMON pin, please see the Operation section.
The IMON pin requires a small (22nF minimum) external
decoupling capacitor. If the IMON pin is not used, it must
be tied to GND.

OPERATION
IMON Pin Operation (Current Monitor)
The IMON pin is the collector of a PNP which mirrors the
LT3050 output PNP at a ratio of 1:100 (see block diagram
on page 11). The current sourced by the IMON pin is
~1/100th of the current sourced by the OUT pin when the
IMON and OUT pin voltages are equal and the device is not
operating in dropout. If the IMON and OUT pin voltages
are not the same, the ratio deviates from 1/100 due to
the Early voltages of the IMON and OUT PNPs according
to the equation:

Early Voltage Compensation
where the Early voltage of the PNPs is 70V and IMONR is
a variable which represents the IOUT to IMON current ratio.
IMONR varies with VIN to VOUT voltage according to the
empirically derived equation:
IMONR = 97 + 5 • log10 (1+VIN – VOUT) for (VIN – VOUT)
≥0.5
IMONR = 96 + 2 • (VIN – VOUT) for (VIN – VOUT) < 0.5
The IMON pin current can be converted into a voltage for
use by monitoring circuitry simply by connecting the IMON
pin to a resistor.
Connecting a resistor from IMON to GND converts the
IMON pin current into a voltage that can be monitored by
circuitry such as an ADC.
For example, a 1.2k resistor results in a IMON pin voltage
of 1.2V for an output current of 100mA and an output
voltage of 1.2V.
A small decoupling capacitor (22nF minimum) from IMON
to GND is required to improve IMON pin power supply
rejection. If the current monitor is not needed, it must be
tied to GND.
Open Circuit Detection (IMIN Pin)
The IMIN pin is the collector of a PNP which mirrors the
LT3050 output at a ratio of approximately 1:200 (see block
diagram on page 11). The IMIN fault comparator asserts
the FAULT pin if the IMIN pin voltage is below 0.6V. This
low output current fault threshold voltage (IOPEN) is set
by attaching a resistor from IMIN to GND.
RIMIN =
119.85 – (1.68 – 36.8 • IOPEN ) • VOUT
IOPEN
This equation is empirically derived and partially
compensates for early voltage effects in the IMIN current
mirror. It is valid for an input voltage range from 0.6V
above the output to 10V above the output. It is valid for
output voltages up to 12V. The accuracy of this equation
for setting the resistor value is approximately ±2%. Unit
values are Amps, Volts, and Ohms.
If the open circuit detection function is not needed, the IMIN
pin must be left floating (unconnected). A small decoupling
capacitor (10nF minimum) from IMIN to GND is required
to improve IMIN pin power supply rejection and to prevent
FAULT pin glitches.
See the Typical Performance Characteristics section for
additional information.
The output current of the device can be calculated from

OPERATION
External Programmable Current Limit (IMAX Pin)
The IMAX pin is the collector of a PNP which mirrors the
LT3050 output at a ratio of approximately 1:200 (see Block
Diagram). The IMAX pin is also the input to the precision
current limit amplifier. If the output load increases to the
point where it causes the IMAX pin voltage to reach 0.6V,
the current limit amplifier takes control of output regulation so that the IMAX pin clamps at 0.6V, regardless of the
output voltage. The current limit threshold (ILIMIT) is set
by attaching a resistor (RIMAX) from IMAX to GND:
RIMAX =
119.22 − 0.894 • VOUT
ILIMIT
This equation is empirically derived and partially compensates for early voltage effects in the IMAX current mirror.
It is valid for an input voltage range from 0.6V above the
output to 10V above the output. It is valid for output voltages up to 12V. The accuracy of this equation for setting
the resistor value is approximately ±1%. Unit values are
Amps, Volts, and Ohms.
In cases where the IN to OUT voltage exceeds 10V, foldback current limit will lower the internal current level limit,
possibly causing it to preempt the external programmable
current limit. See the Internal Current Limit vs VIN – VOUT
graph in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
If the external programmable current limit is not needed,
the IMAX pin must be connected to GND. The IMAX pin
requires a 10nF decoupling capacitor.
See the Typical Performance Characteristics section for
additional information.
FAULT Pin Operation
The FAULT pin is an open collector logic pin which asserts
during internal current limit, precision current limit, thermal limit, or a minimum current fault. There is no internal
pull-up on the FAULT pin; an external pull-up resistor is
required. The FAULT pin provides drive for up to 100μA
of pull-down current. Off state logic may be as high as
45V, regardless of the input voltage used. When asserted,
the FAULT pin drive circuitry adds 50μA (nominal) of GND
pin current.
Depending on the IMIN capacitance, BYP capacitance,
and OUT capacitance, the FAULT pin may assert during
startup. Consideration should be given to masking the
FAULT signal during startup. The FAULT pin circuitry is
inactive (not asserted) during shutdown and when the
OUT pin is pulled above the IN pin.
Operation in Dropout
The LT3050 contains circuitry which prevents the PNP
output power device from saturating in dropout. This also
keeps the IMON, IMIN, and IMAX current mirrors functioning
accurately, even in dropout. However, this anti-saturation
circuitry becomes less active at lower output currents, so
there is some degradation of current mirror function for
output currents less than 10mA.
3050fa
16
LT3050 Series
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LT3050 is a micropower, low noise and low dropout
voltage, 100mA linear regulator with micropower shutdown,
programmable current limit, and diagnostic functions. The
device supplies up to 100mA at a typical dropout voltage
of 340mV and operates over a 2.2V to 45V input range.
A single external capacitor can provide low noise reference
performance and output soft-start functionality. For
example, connecting a 10nF capacitor from the REF/BYP pin
to GND lowers output noise to 30μVRMS over a 10Hz to
100kHz bandwidth. This capacitor also soft-starts the
reference and prevents output voltage overshoot at turn-on.
The LT3050’s quiescent current is merely 45μA but
provides fast transient response with a minimum low ESR
2.2μF ceramic output capacitor. In shutdown, quiescent
current is less than 1μA and the reference soft-start
capacitor is reset.
The LT3050 optimizes stability and transient response
with low ESR, ceramic output capacitors. The regulator
does not require the addition of ESR as is common with
other regulators. The LT3050 typically provides 0.1% line
regulation and 0.1% load regulation. Internal protection
circuitry includes reverse-battery protection, reverseoutput protection, reverse-current protection, current limit
with fold-back and thermal shutdown.
This “bullet-proof” protection set makes it ideal for use in
battery-powered, automotive and industrial systems.
In battery backup applications where the output is held
up by a backup battery and the input is pulled to ground,
the LT3050 acts like it has a diode in series with its output
and prevents reverse current flow.
Adjustable Operation
The adjustable LT3050 has an output voltage range of
0.6V to 44.5V. 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 ADJ pin voltage at 0.6V
referenced to ground. The current in R1 is then equal to
0.6V/R1, and the current in R2 is the current in R1 minus
the ADJ pin bias current.

The ADJ pin bias current, 16nA at 25°C, flows from the

using the formula in Figure 1. The value of R1 should be
no greater than 124k to provide a minimum 5μA load
current so that output voltage errors, caused by the ADJ
pin bias current, are minimized. Note that in shutdown,
the output is turned off and the divider current is zero.
Curves of ADJ Pin Voltage vs Temperature and ADJ Pin Bias
Current vs Temperature appear in the Typical Performance
Characteristics Section.
The LT3050 is tested and specified with the ADJ pin tied
to the OUT pin, yielding VOUT = 0.6V. Specifications for
output voltages greater than 0.6V are proportional to the
ratio of the desired output voltage to 0.6V: VOUT/0.6V. For
example, load regulation for an output current change
of 1mA to 100mA is –0.2mV (typical) at VOUT = 0.6V.
at VOUT = 12V, load regulation is:

Bypass Capacitance, Output Voltage Noise and
Transient Response
The LT3050 regulator provides low output voltage noise
over the 10Hz to 100kHz bandwidth while operating at
full load with the addition of a reference bypass capacitor
(CREF/BYP) from the REF/BYP pin to GND. A good quality,
low leakage capacitor is recommended. This capacitor will
bypass the internal reference of the regulator, providing a
low frequency noise pole. With the use of 10nF for CREF/BYP,
the output voltage noise decreases to as low as 30μVRMS
when the output voltage is set for 0.6V. For higher output
voltages (generated by using a feedback resistor divider),
the output voltage noise gains up accordingly when using
CREF/BYP by itself.
Higher values of output voltage noise are often measured if
care is not exercised with regard to circuit layout and testing. Crosstalk from nearby traces induces unwanted noise
onto the LT3050’s output. Power supply ripple rejection
must also be considered. The LT3050 regulator does not
have unlimited power supply rejection and passes a small
portion of the input noise through to the output.
During start-up, the internal reference will soft-start if a
reference bypass capacitor is present. Regulator startup time is directly proportional to the size of the bypass
capacitor, slowing to 6ms with a 10nF bypass capacitor
(See Start-up Time vs REF/BYP Capacitor in the Typical
Performance Characteristics section). The reference bypass capacitor is actively pulled low during shutdown to
reset the internal reference.

To lower the output voltage noise for higher output voltages,
include a feedforward capacitor (CFF) from VOUT to the
ADJ pin. A good quality, low leakage capacitor is recommended. This capacitor will bypass the error amplifier of
the regulator, providing a low frequency noise pole. With
the use of 10nF for both CFF and CREF/BYP, output voltage
noise decreases to 30μVRMS when the output voltage is
set to 5V by a 5μA feedback resistor divider. If the current
in the feedback resistor divider is doubled, CFF must also
be doubled to achieve equivalent noise performance.
Using a feedforward capacitor (CFF) from VOUT to the ADJ
pin has the added benefit of improving transient response
for output voltages greater than 0.6V. With no feedforward
capacitor, the settling time will increase as the output
voltage is raised above 0.6V. Use the equation in Figure 2
to determine the minimum value of CFF to achieve a
transient response that is similar to 0.6V output voltage
performance regardless of the chosen output voltage
(See Figure 3 and Transient Response in the Typical Performance Characteristics section).

LT3050 Series
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Start-up time is also affected by the presence of a feedforward capacitor. Start-up time is directly proportional to
the size of the feedforward capacitor and the output voltage, and is inversely proportional to the feedback resistor
divider current, slowing to 15ms with a 4.7nF feedforward
capacitor and a 10μF output capacitor for an output voltage
set to 5V by a 5μA feedback resistor divider.
Output Capacitance
The LT3050 regulator is stable with a wide range of output
capacitors. The ESR of the output capacitor affects stability,
most notably with small capacitors. Use a minimum output
capacitor of 2.2μF with an ESR of 3Ω or less to prevent
oscillations. If a feedforward capacitor is used with output
voltages set for greater than 24V, use a minimum output
capacitor of 4.7μF. The LT3050 is a micropower device
and output load transient response is 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
LT3050, increase the effective output capacitor value. For
applications with large load current transients, a low ESR
ceramic capacitor in parallel with a bulk tantalum capacitor
often provides an optimally damped response.
20
Give extra consideration to the use of ceramic capacitors.
Manufacturers make ceramic capacitors with a variety of
dielectrics, each with different behavior across temperature and applied voltage. The most common dielectrics
are specified with EIA temperature characteristic codes
of Z5U, Y5V, X5R and X7R. The Z5U and Y5V dielectrics
provide high C-V products in a small package at low cost,
but exhibit strong voltage and temperature coefficients, as
shown in Figures 4 and 5. 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 yield much more stable characteristics and are
more suitable for use as the output capacitor.
The X7R type works over a wider temperature range and
has better temperature stability, while the X5R is less
expensive and is available 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.

Figure 6. Noise Resulting from Tapping on a Ceramic Capacitor
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 is induced
by vibrations in the system or thermal transients. The
resulting voltages produced cause appreciable amounts
of noise. A ceramic capacitor produced the trace in
Figure 6 in response to light tapping from a pencil. Similar
vibration induced behavior can masquerade as increased
output voltage noise.
Overload Recovery
Like many IC power regulators, the LT3050 has safe operating area protection. The safe area protection decreases
current limit as input-to-output voltage increases, and
keeps the power transistor inside a safe operating region
for all values of input-to-output voltage. The LT3050 provides some output current at all values of input-to-output
voltage up to the device breakdown.
When power is first applied, the input voltage rises and the
output follows the input; allowing the regulator to start-up
into very heavy loads. During start-up, as the input voltage
is rising, the input-to-output voltage differential is small,
allowing the regulator to supply large output currents.
With a high input voltage, a problem can occur wherein
the removal of an output short will not allow the output
to recover. Other regulators, such as the LT1083/LT1084/
LT1085 family and LT1764A also exhibit this phenomenon,
so it is not unique to the LT3050. The problem occurs with
a heavy output load when the input voltage is high and the
output voltage is low. Common situations are: immediately
after the removal of a short-circuit or if the shutdown pin
is pulled high after the input voltage is already turned on.
The load line for such a load intersects the output current curve at two points. If this happens, there are two
stable output operating points for the regulator. With this
double intersection, the input power supply needs to be
cycled down to zero and brought up again to make the
output recover.
Thermal Considerations
The LT3050’s maximum rated junction temperature of
125°C limits its power handling capability. Two components
comprise the power dissipated by the device:
1. Output current multiplied by the input/output
voltage differential: IOUT • (VIN – VOUT), and
2. GND pin current multiplied by the input voltage:
IGND • VIN
GND pin current is determined using the GND Pin Current
curves in the Typical Performance Characteristics section.
Power dissipation equals the sum of the two components
listed above.
The LT3050 regulator has internal thermal limiting that
protects the device during overload conditions. For continuous normal conditions, do not exceed the maximum
junction temperature of 125°C. Carefully consider all
sources of thermal resistance from junction-to-ambient
including other heat sources mounted in proximity to the
LT3050.
The undersides of the LT3050 DFN and MSOP packages
have exposed metal from the lead frame to the die attachment. These packages allow heat to directly transfer from
the die junction to the printed circuit board metal to control
maximum operating junction temperature. The dual-in-line
pin arrangement allows metal to extend beyond the ends
of the package on the topside (component side) of a PCB.
Connect this metal to GND on the PCB. The multiple IN
and OUT pins of the LT3050 also assist in spreading heat
to the PCB.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
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 also can spread the heat generated by
power devices. The following tables list thermal resistance as a function of copper area in a fixed board size.
All measurements were taken in still air on a four-layer
FR-4 board with one ounce solid internal planes and two
ounce external trace planes with a total board thickness
of 1.6mm. For further information on thermal resistance
and using thermal information, refer to JEDEC standard
JESD51, notably JESD51-12.

Table 2. DFN Measured Thermal Resistance
The power dissipated by the device equals:
IOUT(MAX) * (VIN(MAX) – VOUT) + IGND * VIN(MAX)
where,
IOUT(MAX) = 75mA
VIN(MAX) = 12.6V
IGND at (IOUT = 75mA, VIN = 12V) = 1.5mA
So,
P = 75mA • (12.6V - 5V) + 1.5mA • 12.6V = 0.589W
Using a DFN package, the thermal resistance ranges from
44°C/W to 49°C/W depending on the copper area. So the
junction temperature rise above ambient approximately
equals:
0.589W • 49°C/W = 28.86°C
The maximum junction temperature equals the maximum
ambient temperature plus the maximum junction temperature rise above ambient or:
TJMAX = 85°C + 28.86°C = 113.86°C

Example: Given an output voltage of 5V, an input voltage
range of 12V ±5%, a maximum output current range of
75mA and a maximum ambient temperature of 85°C, what
will the maximum junction temperature be?
Protection Features
The LT3050 incorporates several protection features that
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 also protects against reverse-input
voltages, reverse-output voltages and reverse output-toinput voltages.
Current limit protection and thermal overload protection
protect the device against current overload conditions at
the output of the device. For normal operation, do not
exceed a junction temperature of 125°C.

LT3050 Series
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The LT3050 IN pin withstands reverse voltages of 50V. The
device limits current flow to less than 300μA (typically less
than 10μA) and no negative voltage appears at OUT. The
device protects both itself and the load against batteries
that are plugged in backwards.
The SHDN pin cannot be driven below GND unless tied
to the IN pin. If the SHDN pin is driven below GND while
IN is powered, the output may turn on. SHDN pin logic
cannot be referenced to a negative rail.
The LT3050 incurs no damage if its output is pulled below ground. If the input is left open-circuit or grounded,
1.0
the output can be pulled below ground by 50V. No current flows through the pass transistor from the output.
However, current flows in (but is limited by) the resistor
divider that sets the output voltage. Current flows from
the bottom resistor in the divider and from the ADJ pin’s
internal clamp through the top resistor in the divider to
the external circuitry pulling OUT below ground. If the
input is powered by a voltage source, the output sources
current equal to its current limit capability and the LT3050
protects itself by thermal limiting. In this case, grounding
the SHDN pin turns off the device and stops the output
from sourcing current.
