GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP1720 is a high voltage, micropower, low dropout linear
regulator. Operating over a very wide input voltage range of 4 V
to 28 V, the ADP1720 can provide up to 50 mA of output current.
With just 28 μA of quiescent supply current and a micropower
shutdown mode, this device is ideal for applications that require
low quiescent current.
The ADP1720 is optimized for stable operation with small 1 μF
ceramic output capacitors, allowing for good transient performance while occupying minimal board space.
The ADP1720 is available in fixed output voltages of 3.3 V and
5.0 V. An adjustable version is also available, which allows the
output to be set anywhere between 1.225 V and 5.0 V. An enable
function that allows external circuits to turn on and turn off the
ADP1720 output is available. For automatic startup, the enable
(EN) pin can be connected directly to the input rail.
Available in a small thermally enhanced MSOP package, the
ADP1720 provides a compact solution with low thermal resistance.
The ADP1720 operates from –40°C to +125°C and uses current
limit protection and thermal overload protection circuits to
prevent damage to the device in adverse conditions.

ADP1720
THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADP1720 is a low dropout, BiCDMOS linear regulator that
operates from a 4 V to 28 V input rail and provides up to 50 mA
of output current. Ground current in shutdown mode is typically
700 nA. The ADP1720 is stable and provides high power supply
rejection ratio (PSRR) and excellent line and load transient
response with just a small 1 μF ceramic output capacitor.
ADJUSTABLE OUTPUT VOLTAGE
(ADP1720 ADJUSTABLE)
The ADP1720 adjustable version can have its output voltage
set over a 1.225 V to 5.0 V range. The output voltage is set by
connecting a resistive voltage divider from OUT to ADJ. The
output voltage is calculated using the equation
VOUT = 1.225 V (1 + R1/R2)
IN
OUT
where:
R1 is the resistor from OUT to ADJ.
R2 is the resistor from ADJ to GND.
CURRENT LIMIT
THERMAL PROTECT
To make calculation of R1 and R2 easier, Equation 1 can be
rearranged as follows:
SHUTDOWN
R1 = R2 [(VOUT /1.225) – 1]
GND/ADJ
REFERENCE
GND
06111-019
EN
(1)
(2)
The maximum bias current into ADJ is 100 nA; therefore,
when less than 0.5% error is due to the bias current, use values
less than 60 kΩ for R2.
Figure 19. Internal Block Diagram
Internally, the ADP1720 consists of a reference, an error amplifier, a feedback voltage divider, and a DMOS pass transistor.
Output current is delivered via the DMOS pass device, which is
controlled by the error amplifier. The error amplifier compares
the reference voltage with the feedback voltage from the output
and amplifies the difference. If the feedback voltage is lower than
the reference voltage, the gate of the DMOS device is pulled
lower, allowing more current to pass and increasing the output
voltage. If the feedback voltage is higher than the reference
voltage, the gate of the PNP device is pulled higher, allowing
less current to pass and decreasing the output voltage.
The ADP1720 is available in two versions, one with fixed output
voltage options (see Figure 1) and one with an adjustable output
voltage (see Figure 2). The fixed output voltage options are set
internally to either 5.0 V or 3.3 V, using an internal feedback
network. The adjustable output voltage can be set to between
1.225 V and 5.0 V by an external voltage divider connected from
OUT to ADJ. The ADP1720 uses the EN pin to enable and
disable the OUT pin under normal operating conditions. When
EN is high, OUT turns on; when EN is low, OUT turns off. For
automatic startup, EN can be tied to IN.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
CAPACITOR SELECTION
Input and Output Capacitor Properties
Output Capacitor
Any good quality ceramic capacitors can be used with the
ADP1720, as long as they meet the minimum capacitance and
maximum ESR requirements. Ceramic capacitors are manufactured with a variety of dielectrics, each with different behavior
over temperature and applied voltage. Capacitors must have a
dielectric adequate to ensure the minimum capacitance over
the necessary temperature range and dc bias conditions. X5R
or X7R dielectrics with a voltage rating of 6.3 V or 10 V are
recommended for the output capacitor. X5R or X7R dielectrics
with a voltage rating of 50 V or higher are recommended for the
input capacitor.
The ADP1720 is designed for operation with small, space-saving
ceramic capacitors, but it functionswith most commonly used
capacitors as long as care is taken about the effective series
resistance (ESR) value. The ESR of the output capacitor affects
stability of the LDO control loop. A minimum of 1 μF capacitance
with an ESR of 500 mΩ or less is recommended to ensure stability of the ADP1720. Transient response to changes in load
current is also affected by output capacitance. Using a larger
value of output capacitance improves the transient response of
the ADP1720 to large changes in load current. Figure 20 and
Figure 21 show the transient responses for output capacitance
values of 1 μF and 10 μF, respectively.
CURRENT LIMIT AND THERMAL OVERLOAD
PROTECTION
Current limit and thermal overload protection circuits on the
ADP1720 protect the part from damage caused by excessive power
dissipation. The ADP1720 is designed to current limit when
the output load reaches 90 mA (typical). When the output
load exceeds 90 mA, the output voltage is reduced to maintain
a constant current limit.
1
Thermal overload protection is included, which limits the junction
temperature to a maximum of 150°C (typical). Under extreme
conditions (that is, high ambient temperature and power dissipation), when the junction temperature starts to rise above 150°C,
the output is turned off, reducing the output current to zero.
When the junction temperature drops below 135°C, the output is
turned on again, and output current is restored to its nominal value.

LOAD STEP FROM 2.5mA TO 47.5mA
Consider the case where a hard short from OUT to GND occurs.
At first, the ADP1720 current limits so that only 90 mA is
conducted into the short. If self-heating of the junction is
great enough to cause its temperature to rise above 150°C,
thermal shutdown activates, turning off the output and
reducing the output current to zero. As the junction
temperature cools and drops below 135°C, the output turns on
and conducts 90 mA into the short, again causing the junction
temperature to rise above 150°C. This thermal oscillation
between 135°C and 150°C causes a current oscillation between
90 mA and 0 mA, which continues as long as the short
remains at the output.

Connecting a 1 μF capacitor from IN to GND reduces the circuit sensitivity to printed circuit board (PCB) layout, especially
when encountering long input traces or high source impedance.
If greater than 1 μF of output capacitance is required, it is
recommended that the input capacitor be increased to match it.
Current and thermal limit protections are intended to protect
the device against accidental overload conditions. For reliable
operation, device power dissipation must be externally limited
so that junction temperatures do not exceed 125°C.

Power dissipation due to ground current is quite small and
can be ignored. Therefore, the junction temperature equation
simplifies to the following:

As shown in Equation 5, for a given ambient temperature,
input-to-output voltage differential, and continuous load
current, there exists a minimum copper size requirement for
the PCB to ensure that the junction temperature does not rise
above 125°C. Figure 22 to Figure 27 show junction temperature
calculations for different ambient temperatures, load currents,
VIN to VOUT differentials, and areas of PCB copper.

To guarantee reliable operation, the junction temperature of the
ADP1720 must not exceed 125°C. To ensure the junction temperature stays below this maximum value, the user needs to be
aware of the parameters that contribute to junction temperature
changes. These parameters include ambient temperature, power
dissipation in the power device, and thermal resistances between
the junction and ambient air (θJA). The θJA number is dependent
on the package assembly compounds used and the amount of
copper to which the GND pins of the package are soldered on the
PCB. Table 5 shows typical θJA values of the 8-lead MSOP package
for various PCB copper sizes.

CONSIDERATIONS
GND (TOP)
Place the input capacitor as close as possible to the IN and GND
pins. Place the output capacitor as close as possible to the OUT
and GND pins. Use of 0402 or 0603 size capacitors and resistors
achieves the smallest possible footprint solution on boards
where area is limited.

Heat dissipation from the package can be improved by increasing
the amount of copper attached to the pins of the ADP1720. However, as can be seen from Table 5, a point of diminishing returns
eventually is reached, beyond which an increase in the copper
size does not yield significant heat dissipation benefits.
