This device delivers excellent noise and dynamic performance. It features typical quiescent current of 35 mA at no−load, ultra−low noise of 10 mVRMS and high PSRR of 72 dB at 1 kHz. Such excellent dynamic parameters and small package size make the device an ideal choice for powering the precision analog and noise sensitive circuitry in portable applications. NCP729 requires very small voltage headroom for correct operation. The dropout for 3.3 V voltage option is only 68 mV (typ.) A logic EN input provides ON/OFF control of the output voltage. When the EN is low the device consumes as low as typ. 300 nA from the IN pin. The device is fully protected in case of output overload, output short circuit condition and overheating, assuring a very robust design. The regulator remains stable and regulates the output voltage properly within the ±2% tolerance limits with no external load applied to the output. Input Capacitor (CIN) Enable Operation No−load Operation It is recommended to connect a minimum of 1 mF Ceramic X5R or X7R capacitor close to the IN pin of the device. This capacitor will provide a low impedance path for unwanted AC signals or noise modulated onto constant input voltage. There is no requirement for the min./max. ESR of the input capacitor but it is recommended to use ceramic capacitors for their low ESR and ESL. A good input capacitor will limit the influence of input trace inductance and power source resistance during sudden load current changes. Larger input capacitor may be necessary if fast and large line/load transients are encountered in the application. The NCP729 uses the EN pin to enable, disable its output and to deactivate, activate the active output discharge function. If the EN pin voltage is <0.4 V the device is guaranteed to be disabled. The pass transistor is turned−off and the active discharge transistor is active so that the output voltage VOUT is pulled to GND through a 1 kW resistor. In the disable state the device consumes as low as typ. 300 nA from the VIN. If the EN pin voltage > 0.9 V the device is guaranteed to be enabled. The output voltage is regulated at the nominal value and the active discharge transistor is turned−off. The EN pin has internal pull−down current source with typ. value of 110 nA which assures that the device is turned−off when the EN pin is not connected. A build in 2 mV of hysteresis in the EN prevents from periodic on/off oscillations that can occur due to noise. In the case where the EN function isn’t required the EN pin should be tied directly to IN. Output Capacitor (COUT) The NCP729 is designed to operate with a small 1.0 mF ceramic capacitor on the output. To assure proper operation it is recommended to use min. 1.0 mF capacitor with the initial tolerance of ±10%, made of X7R or X5R dielectric material types. NCP729 is internally compensated so there is no requirement for the minimum value of Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) for the COUT but the maximum value of ESR should be less than 500 mW. Larger output capacitors could be used to improve the load transient response or high frequency PSRR. This part is not designed to work with tantalum or electrolytic capacitors on the output due to their large ESR and ESL. The equivalent series resistance of tantalum capacitors is also strongly dependent on the temperature, increasing at low temperatures. The tantalum capacitors are generally more costly than ceramic capacitors. The table below lists examples of suitable output capacitors: Undervoltage Lockout The internal UVLO circuitry assures that the device becomes disabled when the VIN falls below typ. 1.5 V. When the VIN voltage ramps−up the NCP729 becomes enabled for VIN ≥ 1.6 V. The 100 mV hysteresis prevents from on/off oscillations that can occur due to noise on VIN line. Reverse Current The PMOS pass transistor has an inherent body diode which will be forward biased in the case that VOUT > VIN. Due to this fact in cases where the extended reverse current condition is anticipated the device may require additional external protection. http://onsemi.com 11 NCP729 Output Current Limit Load Regulation Output Current is internally limited within the IC to a typical 400 mA. The NCP729 will source this amount of current measured with the output voltage 100 mV lower than the nominal VOUT. The short circuit current flowing to the IN pin when the Output Voltage is directly shorted to ground will be just slightly above 400 mA – typ. 410 mA. The current limit and short circuit were verified to work properly and to secure the part from the damage up to VIN = 5.5 V at TA = 25°C. There is no limitation for the short circuit duration. The NCP729 features excellent load regulation of typical 200 mV in the 0 mA to 200 mA range. Due to this fact at large load currents the major contributors to the output voltage shift will be the junction temperature increase and the PCB trace resistance. Line Regulation The IC features very good line regulation of typical 150 mV/V measured for the input voltage change from VIN = VOUT + 0.3 V to 5.5 V. Power Supply Rejection Ratio Thermal Shutdown The NCP729 features very good Power Supply Rejection ratio. If desired the PSRR at higher frequencies in the range 100 kHz – 10 MHz can be tuned by the selection of COUT capacitor and proper PCB layout. Additional Ferrite Bead Input filter will further improve the PSRR. When the die temperature exceeds the Thermal Shutdown threshold (TSD – 165°C typical), Thermal Shutdown event is detected and the device is disabled. The IC will remain in this state until the die temperature decreases below the Thermal Shutdown Reset threshold (TSDU − 140°C typical). Once the IC temperature falls below the 140°C the LDO is enabled. The thermal shutdown feature provides protection from a catastrophic device failure due to accidental overheating. This protection is not intended to be used as a substitute for proper heat sinking. Output Noise The IC is designed for ultra−low noise output voltage. Figures 3 and 4 illustrate the noise performance for different VOUT, IOUT, COUT. Generally the noise performance in the indicated frequency range improves with increasing output current. Power Dissipation As power dissipated in the NCP729 increases, it might become necessary to provide some thermal relief. The maximum power dissipation supported by the device is dependent upon board design and layout. Mounting pad configuration on the PCB, the board material, and the ambient temperature affect the rate of junction temperature rise for the part. The maximum power dissipation the IC can handle is given by: P D(MAX) + ƪTJ(MAX) * TAƫ q JA PCB Layout Recommendations To obtain good transient performance and good regulation characteristics place CIN and COUT capacitors close to the device pins and make the PCB traces wide. VOUT, VIN and GND printed circuit board traces should be as wide as possible. When the impedance of these traces is high, there is a chance for noise pickup. In order to minimize the solution size use 0402 capacitors. Larger copper area connected to the pins will improve the device thermal resistance. The actual power dissipation can be calculated by the formula given in Equation 2. (eq. 1) The power dissipated by the NCP729 for given application conditions can be calculated from the following equations: P D [ V INǒI GND@I OUTǓ ) I OUTǒV IN * V OUTǓ (eq. 2) Table 5.
