Note 1. Stresses listed as the above “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are for
stress ratings. Functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the
operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended
periods may remain possibility to affect device reliability.
Note 2. θJA is measured in the natural convection at TA = 25°C on a low effective single layer thermal conductivity test board of
JEDEC 51-3 thermal measurement standard. The case position of θJC is on the exposed pad for the VDFN-6L 2x2
packages.
Note 3. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precaution recommended.
Note 4. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating conditions.
Note 5. Quiescent, or ground current, is the difference between input and output currents. It is defined by IQ = IIN - IOUT under no
load condition (IOUT = 0mA). The total current drawn from the supply is the sum of the load current plus the ground pin
current.
Note 6. Standby current is the input current drawn by a regulator when the output voltage is disabled by a shutdown signal
(VEN >1.8V ).
Note 7. The dropout voltage is defined as VIN -VOUT, which is measured when VOUT is VOUT(NORMAL) - 100mV.
Note 8. Performance at -5°C ≤ TA ≤ 85°C is assured by design.
Note 9. Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature by using a 2ms current pulse. Devices are tested for load
regulation in the load range from 10mA to 500mA.

RT9187A
Applications Information
Enable
The RT9187A goes into sleep mode when the Enable pin
is in a logic low condition. During this condition, the pass
transistor, error amplifier, and bandgap are turned off,
reducing the supply current to 0.1μA typical. The Enable
pin may be directly tied to VIN to keep the part on. The
Enable input is CMOS logic and cannot be left floating.
Output capacitor
A quick-start feature allows for quick turn-on of the output
voltage. The recommended nominal bypass capacitor is
0.01μF, and an increase won't result in longer turn on times
TON.
PSRR
The power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) is defined as the
gain from the input to output divided by the gain from the
supply to the output. The PSRR is found to be
The RT9187A is specifically designed to employ ceramic
output capacitors as low as 1μF. Ceramic capacitors below
10μF offer significant cost and space savings, along with
high frequency noise filtering. The RT9187A doesn't rely
on a zero, which generated by output capacitor ESR. So,
output capacitor ESR is not sensitive, very low ESR is
allowed
Note that when heavy load measuring, Δsupply will cause
Δtemperature. And Δtemperature will cause Δoutput
voltage. So the heavy load PSRR measuring is include
temperature effect.
Input capacitor
Current limit
Good bypassing is recommended from input to ground to
help improve AC performance. A 1μF input capacitor or
greater located as close as possible to the IC is
recommended. Larger input capacitor values with lower
ESR provide better supply-noise rejection and line-transient
response. Larger load currents may require larger capacitor
values. Input capacitor is not critical to stability.
The RT9187A contains an independent current limiter,
which monitors and controls the pass transistor's gate
voltage, limiting the output current to 2.5A (Typ.). The
output can be shorted to ground indefinitely without
damaging the part.
Noise & bypass capacitor
Noise is specified in two ways
Spot Noise or Output noise density is the RMS sum of all
noise sources, measured at the regulator output, at a
specific frequency (measured with a 1Hz bandwidth). This
type of noise is usually plotted on a curve as a function of
frequency.
Total output Noise or Broadband noise is the RMS sum of
spot noise over a specified bandwidth, usually several
decades of frequencies.
Attention should be paid to the units of measurement.
Spot noise is measured in units μV/ Hz and total output
noise is measured in μV(rms).
The internal bandgap reference voltage of the RT9187A
can be bypassed with a capacitor to ground to reduce
output noise and increase input ripple rejection (PSRR).

Quick start up
The RT9187A provides fast start-up time for better system
efficiency. Here uses a voltage source to charges the
optional noise bypass capacitor. Unlike traditional current
source, the start-up times won't increase with bypass
capacitor.
Thermal Shutdown protection
Thermal shutdown protection limits total power dissipation
in the RT9187A. When the junction temperature exceeds
TJ = +170°C, the thermal sensor signals the shutdown
logic, turning off the pass transistor and allowing the IC to
cool. The thermal sensor turns the pass transistor on again
after the IC's junction temperature cools by 30°C, resulting
in a pulsed output during continuous thermal overload
conditions. Thermal-shutdown protection is designed to
protect the RT9187A in the event of fault conditions. For
continual operation, do not exceed the absolute maximum
junction temperature rating of TJ = +125°C.
DS9187A-01 April 2011
RT9187A
For continuous operation, do not exceed absolute
maximum operation junction temperature 125°C. The
power dissipation definition in device is :
PD = (VIN − VOUT) x IOUT + VIN x IQ
The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal
resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of
surroundings airflow and temperature difference between
junctions to ambient. The maximum power dissipation can
be calculated by following formula :
PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) − TA) /θJA
Where T J(MAX) is the maximum operation junction
temperature 125°C, TA is the ambient temperature and the
θJA is the junction to ambient thermal resistance.

For recommended operating conditions specification of
RT9187A, where T J(MAX) is the maximum junction
temperature of the die (125°C) and TA is the maximum
ambient temperature. The junction to ambient thermal
resistance (θJA is layout dependent) for SOT-23-5 package
is 220°C/W and VDFN-6L 2x2 package is 165°C/W on
standard JEDEC 51-3 single layer thermal test board. The
maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C can be calculated
by following formula :
P D(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / 220 = 0.454W for
SOT-23-5 package
P D(MAX) = (125°C − 25°C) / 165 = 0.606W for
VDFN-6L 2x2 package
The maximum power dissipation depends on operating
ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal
resistance θJA. For RT9187A packages, the Figure 1 of
derating curves allows the designer to see the effect of
rising ambient temperature on the maximum power
allowed.
