Supply voltage can range from +2.5V to +5.5V. Bypass with 1µF to GND Ground. This pin also functions as a heatsink. Solder to large pads or the circuit board ground plane to maximize thermal dissipation. Active-Low Shutdown Input. A logic low reduces the supply current to less than 1µA. Connect to IN for normal operation. Adjust (Input): Adjustable regulator feedback input. It can connect to an external resistor divider for adjustable output voltage. It also must connect ≥470pF ceramic capacitor from ADJ pin to GND for reduce output noise. Regulator Output. Fixed or adjustable from +2.5V to +5.5V. Sources up to 150mA. Bypass with a 1µF, <0.2Ω typical ESR capacitor to GND. Detailed Description This equation is correct due to the configuration of the bandgap reference. The bandgap voltage is relative to the output, as seen in the block diagram. Traditional regulators normally have the reference voltage relative to ground and have a different VOUT equation. Resistor values are not critical because ADJ (adjust)has a high input impedance, but for best results use resistors of 470kΩ or less. A capacitor from ADJ to ground provides greatly improved noise performance. The block diagram of the G914 is shown in Figure 1. It consists of an error amplifier, 1.25V bandgap reference, PMOS output transistor, shutdown logic, over current protection circuit, and over temperature protection circuit. The G914 can be adjusted to a specific output voltage by using two external resistors (Figure 2). The resistors set the output voltage based on the following equation: R2 VOUT =1.250V X +1 R1 IN SHDN SHUTDOWN LOGIC ERROR AMP. + OVER TEMP. & OVER CURRENT PROTECTION OUT 1.25V ref ADJ GND Figure 1.

In the case of a SOT23-5 package, the thermal resistance is typically 220oC/Watt. OUTPUT VOLTAGE R1 + The die attachment area of the G914’s lead frame is connected to pin 2, which is the GND pin. Therefore, the GND pin of G914 can carry away the heat of the G914 die very effectively. To improve the power dissipation, connect the GND pin to ground using a large ground plane near the GND pin.

Adjustable Output Using External Feedback Resistors Capacitor Selection and Regulator Stability Normally, use a 1µF capacitor on the input and a 1µF capacitor on the output of the G914. Larger input capacitor values and lower ESR provide better supply-noise rejection and transient response. A highervalue input capacitor (10µF) may be necessary if large, fast transients are anticipated and the device is located several inches from the power source. Over Current Protection The G914 use a current mirror to monitor the output current. A small portion of the PMOS output transistor’s current is mirrored onto a resistor such that the voltage across this resistor is proportional to the output current. This voltage is compared against the reference voltage. Once the output current exceeds the limit, the PMOS output transistor enters constant current mode. The current is set to 370mA typically. Power-Supply Rejection and Operation from Sources Other than Batteries The G914 is designed to deliver low dropout voltages and low quiescent currents in battery powered systems. Power-supply rejection is 42dB at low frequencies. Over Temperature Protection To prevent abnormal temperature from occurring, the G914 has a built-in temperature monitoring circuit. When it detects the temperature is above 150oC, the output transistor is turned off. When the IC is cooled down to below 135oC, the output is turned on again. In this way, the G914 will be protected against abnormal junction temperature during operation. When operating from sources other than batteries, improve supply-noise rejection and transient response by increasing the values of the input and output capacitors, and using passive filtering techniques. Load Transient Considerations The G914 load-transient response graphs show two components of the output response: a DC shift of the output voltage due to the different load currents, and the transient response. Typical overshoot for step changes in the load current from 0mA to 100mA is 12mV. Increasing the output capacitor's value and decreasing its ESR attenuates transient spikes. Shutdown Mode When the SHDN pin is connected a logic low voltage, the G914 enters shutdown mode. All the analog circuits are turned off completely, which reduces the current consumption to only the leakage current. The output is disconnected from the input. When the output has no load at all, the output voltage will be discharged to ground through the internal resistor voltage divider. Input-Output (Dropout) Voltage A regulator's minimum input-output voltage differential (or dropout voltage) determines the lowest usable supply voltage. In battery-powered systems, this will determine the useful end-of-life battery voltage. Because the G914 use a P-channel MOSFET pass transistor, their dropout voltage is a function of RDS(ON) multiplied by the load current. Operating Region and Power Dissipation Since the G914 is a linear regulator, its power dissipation is always given by P = IOUT (VIN – VOUT). The maximum power dissipation is given by: PD(MAX) = (TJ–TA)/θJA,=150oC-25oC/220oC/W= 568mW Where (TJ–TA) is the temperature difference the G914 die and the ambient air,θJA, is the thermal resistance TEL: 886-3-5788833 http://www.gmt.com.tw Ver 0.1 Preliminary Nov 05, 2001 4 Global Mixed-mode Technology Inc.
