The ADP3336 is a member of the ADP333x family of precision
low dropout anyCAP voltage regulators. The ADP3336 operates
with an input voltage range of 2.6 V to 12 V and delivers a
continuous load current up to 500 mA. The ADP3336 stands
out from conventional LDOs with the lowest thermal resistance
of any MSOP-8 package and an enhanced process that enables
it to offer performance advantages beyond its competition.
Its patented design requires only a 1.0 µF output capacitor for
stability. This device is insensitive to output capacitor Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR), and is stable with any good
quality capacitor, including ceramic (MLCC) types for spacerestricted applications. The ADP3336 achieves exceptional
accuracy of ± 0.9% at room temperature and ± 1.8% over temperature, line, and load. The dropout voltage of the ADP3336 is
only 200 mV (typical) at 500 mA. This device also includes a
safety current limit, thermal overload protection and a shutdown
feature. In shutdown mode, the ground current is reduced to
less than 1 µA. The ADP3336 has ultralow quiescent current
80 µA (typical) in light load situations.

superior line noise rejection and very high regulator gain, which
leads to excellent line and load regulation. An impressive ± 1.8%
accuracy is guaranteed over line, load, and temperature.
THEORY OF OPERATION
The new anyCAP LDO ADP3336 uses a single control loop for
regulation and reference functions. The output voltage is sensed
by a resistive voltage divider consisting of R1 and R2 which is
varied to provide the available output voltage option. Feedback
is taken from this network by way of a series diode (D1) and a
second resistor divider (R3 and R4) to the input of an amplifier.
Additional features of the circuit include current limit and thermal shutdown.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Capacitor Selection
Output Capacitors: as with any micropower device, output
transient response is a function of the output capacitance. The
ADP3336 is stable with a wide range of capacitor values, types
and ESR (anyCAP). A capacitor as low as 1 µF is all that is
needed for stability; larger capacitors can be used if high output
current surges are anticipated. The ADP3336 is stable with
extremely low ESR capacitors (ESR ≈ 0), such as multilayer
ceramic capacitors (MLCC) or OSCON. Note that the effective
capacitance of some capacitor types may fall below the minimum at cold temperature. Ensure that the capacitor provides
more than 1 µF at minimum temperature.

Input Bypass Capacitor
A very high gain error amplifier is used to control this loop. The
amplifier is constructed in such a way that equilibrium produces a large, temperature-proportional input, “offset voltage”
that is repeatable and very well controlled. The temperatureproportional offset voltage is combined with the complementary
diode voltage to form a “virtual bandgap” voltage, implicit in
the network, although it never appears explicitly in the circuit.
Ultimately, this patented design makes it possible to control
the loop with only one amplifier. This technique also improves
the noise characteristics of the amplifier by providing more flexibility on the trade-off of noise sources that leads to a low noise design.
An input bypass capacitor is not strictly required but is advisable
in any application involving long input wires or high source
impedance. Connecting a 1 µF capacitor from IN to ground
reduces the circuit's sensitivity to PC board layout. If a larger
value output capacitor is used, then a larger value input capacitor is also recommended.
Noise Reduction
A noise reduction capacitor (CNR) can be placed between
the output and the feedback pin to further reduce the noise by
6 dB–10 dB (TPC 18). Low leakage capacitors in 100 pF–500 pF
range provide the best performance. Since the feedback pin (FB)
is internally connected to a high impedance node, any connection
to this node should be carefully done to avoid noise pickup from
external sources. The pad connected to this pin should be as
small as possible and long PC board traces are not recommended.
The R1, R2 divider is chosen in the same ratio as the bandgap
voltage to the output voltage. Although the R1, R2 resistor divider
is loaded by the diode D1 and a second divider consisting of R3
and R4, the values can be chosen to produce a temperature stable
output. This unique arrangement specifically corrects for the
loading of the divider thus avoiding the error resulting from
base current loading in conventional circuits.
When adding a noise reduction capacitor, maintain a minimum load current of 1 mA when not in shutdown.
It is important to note that as CNR increases, the turn-on time
will be delayed. With CNR values greater than 1 nF, this delay
may be on the order of several milliseconds.
The patented amplifier controls a new and unique noninverting
driver that drives the pass transistor, Q1. The use of this special
noninverting driver enables the frequency compensation to
include the load capacitor in a pole-splitting arrangement to
achieve reduced sensitivity to the value, type, and ESR of the
load capacitance.

Most LDOs place very strict requirements on the range of ESR
values for the output capacitor because they are difficult to stabilize
due to the uncertainty of load capacitance and resistance. Moreover, the ESR value, required to keep conventional LDOs stable,
changes depending on load and temperature. These ESR limitations make designing with LDOs more difficult because of their
unclear specifications and extreme variations over temperature.

With the ADP3336 anyCAP LDO, this is no longer true. It can

ADP3336
Output Voltage
The ADP3336 has an adjustable output voltage that can be set
by an external resistor divider. The output voltage will be
divided by R1 and R2, and then fed back to the FB pin.
In order to have the lowest possible sensitivity of the output
voltage to temperature variations, it is important that the parallel resistance of R1 and R2 is always 50 kΩ.
DIE
R1 × R2
= 50 kΩ
R1 + R2
Also, for the best accuracy over temperature the feedback voltage should be set for 1.178 V:
Figure 4. Thermally Enhanced Paddle-Under-Lead Package
Thermal Overload Protection
 R2 
VFB = VOUT × 

 R1 + R2 
where VOUT is the desired output voltage and VFB is the “virtual
bandgap” voltage. Note that VFB does not actually appear at the
FB pin due to loading by the internal PTAT current.
Combining the above equations and solving for R1 and R2 gives
the following formulas:
The ADP3336 is protected against damage from excessive power
dissipation by its thermal overload protection circuit which limits
the die temperature to a maximum of 165°C. Under extreme
conditions (i.e., high ambient temperature and power dissipation)
where die temperature starts to rise above 165°C, the output
current is reduced until the die temperature has dropped to a
safe level. The output current is restored when the die temperature is reduced.
Current and thermal limit protections are intended to protect
the device against accidental overload conditions. For normal
operation, device power dissipation should be externally limited
so that junction temperatures will not exceed 150°C.

Paddle-Under-Lead Package
The ADP3336 uses a proprietary paddle-under-lead package
design to ensure the best thermal performance in an MSOP-8
footprint. This new package uses an electrically isolated die
attach that allows all pins to contribute to heat conduction.
This technique reduces the thermal resistance to 110°C/W on a
4-layer board as compared to >160°C/W for a standard MSOP-8
leadframe. Figure 4 shows the standard physical construction
of the MSOP-8 and the paddle-under-lead leadframe.
REV. 0
Assuming ILOAD = 400 mA, IGND = 4 mA, VIN = 5.0 V and
VOUT = 3.3 V, device power dissipation is:
∆TJA = 0.700 W × 110°C = 77.0°C
To limit the maximum junction temperature to 150°C, maximum allowable ambient temperature will be:
TAMAX = 150°C – 77.0°C = 73.0°C
Printed Circuit Board Layout Consideration
All surface mount packages rely on the traces of the PC board to
conduct heat away from the package.
–7–
ADP3336
In standard packages the dominant component of the heat resistance path is the plastic between the die attach pad and the
individual leads. In typical thermally enhanced packages one or
more of the leads are fused to the die attach pad, significantly
decreasing this component. To make the improvement meaningful, however, a significant copper area on the PCB must be
attached to these fused pins.
It is not recommended to use solder mask or silkscreen on the
PCB traces adjacent to the ADP3336’s pins since it will increase
the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the package.
Applying a TTL high signal to the shutdown (SD) pin or tying
it to the input pin, will turn the output ON. Pulling SD down to
0.4 V or below, or tying it to ground will turn the output OFF.
In shutdown mode, quiescent current is reduced to much less
than 1 µA.
The proprietary paddle-under-lead frame design of the ADP3336
uniformly minimizes the value of the dominant portion of the
thermal resistance. It ensures that heat is conducted away by all
pins of the package. This yields a very low 110°C/W thermal
resistance for an MSOP-8 package, without any special board
layout requirements, relying only on the normal traces connected
to the leads. This yields a 33% improvement in heat dissipation
capability as compared to a standard MSOP-8 package. The
