ISSUED DATE :2005/06/21 REVISED DATE : G5U2179 C M O S L o w D r o p o u t Vo l t a g e R e g u l a t o r Description The G5U2179 series of positive, linear regulators feature low quiescent current (45 A typ.) with low dropout voltage, making them ideal for battery applications. Output voltages are set at the factory and trimmed to 1.5% accuracy. These rugged devices have both Thermal Shutdown, and Current Fold-back to prevent device failure under the “Worst” of operating conditions. In applications requiring a low noise, regulated supply, place a 1000pF capacitor between Bypass and Ground. The G5U2179 is stable with an output capacitance of 4.7 F or greater.

The P-channel pass transistor receives data from the error amplifier, over-current shutdown, and thermal protection circuits. During normal operation, the error amplifier compares the output voltage to a precision reference. Over-current and Thermal shutdown circuits become active when the junction temperature exceeds 140 , or the current exceeds 2.2A. During thermal shutdown, the output voltage remains low. Normal operation is restored when the junction temperature drops below 120 . External Capacitors The G5U2179 is stable with an output capacitance to ground of 4.7 F or greater. Ceramic capacitors have the lowest ESR, and will offer the best AC performance. Conversely, Aluminum Electrolytic capacitors exhibit the highest ESR, resulting in the poorest AC response. Unfortunately, large value ceramic capacitors are comparatively expensive. One option is to parallel a 0.1 F ceramic capacitor with a 10 F Aluminum Electrolytic. The benefit is low ESR, high capacitance, and low overall cost. A second capacitor is recommended between the input and ground to stabilize Vin. The input capacitor should be at least 0.1 F to have a beneficial effect. A third capacitor can be connected between the BY-PASS pin and GND. This capacitor can be a low cost Polyester Film variety between the value of 0.001~0.01 F. A large capacitor improves the AC ripple rejection, but also makes the output come up slowly. This “Soft” turn-on is desirable in some applications to limit turn-on surges. All capacitors should be placed in close proximity to the pins. A “Quiet” ground termination is desirable. This can be achieved with a “Star” connection. Enable When pulled low, the PMOS pass transistor shuts off, and all internal circuits are powered down. In this state, the quiescent current is less than 1 A. This pin behaves much like an electronic switch. Important Notice: All rights are reserved.
