1.425V to 3.6V Input, 2A,
0.2V Dropout LDO Regulators
The MAX8526/MAX8527/MAX8528 low-dropout linear
regulators operate from input voltages as low as 1.425V
and are able to deliver up to 2A of continuous output
current with a maximum dropout voltage of only 200mV.
The output voltage can be set from 0.5V to (VIN - 0.2V)
and is 1.4% accurate over load and line variations, from
0°C to +85°C.
These regulators use small, 2.2µF ceramic input capacitors and 10µF ceramic output capacitors to deliver 2A
output current. High bandwidth provides excellent transient response and limits the output voltage deviation to
45mV for a 20mA to 2A load step, with only a 10µF
ceramic output capacitor, and the voltage deviations can
be reduced further by increasing the output capacitor.
Designed with an internal p-channel MOSFET pass
transistor, the MAX8526/MAX8527/MAX8528 feature
low 500µA typical supply current during dropout conditions. Soft-start reduces inrush current. Other features
include a logic-controlled shutdown mode, short-circuit
protection, and thermal-overload protection.
The MAX8527 features a power-OK (POK) output that
transitions high when the regulator output is within
±10% of its nominal output voltage. The MAX8528 features a 150ms power-on reset (POR) output.
The parts are packaged in a 14-pin TSSOP package,
which includes an exposed pad for optimal power
dissipation.

1.425V to 3.6V Input, 2A,
0.2V Dropout LDO Regulators
The MAX8526/MAX8527/MAX8528 are low-input, lowdropout, PMOS regulators capable of delivering up to
2A of output current with as little as 200mV of headroom from input to output. The PMOS output stage can
be driven from input voltages down to +1.425V without
sacrificing stability or transient performance. Since this
regulator has a PMOS output device, supply current is
not a significant function of load or input headroom.
Internal p-Channel Pass Transistor
The MAX8526/MAX8527/MAX8528 feature a 50mΩ
(typ) p-channel MOSFET pass transistor. Unlike similar
designs using pnp pass transistors, p-channel MOSFETs
require no base drive, which reduces quiescent current.
pnp-based regulators also waste considerable current in
dropout when the pass transistor saturates, and use high
base-drive currents under large loads. The MAX8526/
MAX8527/MAX8528 do not suffer from these problems
and consume only 500µA (typ) of quiescent current
under heavy loads, as well as in dropout.
Short-Circuit/Thermal Fault Protection
The MAX8526/MAX8527/MAX8528 are fully protected
from a short circuit at the output through current-limiting and thermal-overload circuitry. In the fault condition
when the output is shorted to ground, the output current is limited to 4A. Under these conditions, the part
quickly heats up. When the junction temperature reaches +165°C, the thermal-overload circuitry turns off the
output, allowing the part to cool down. When the junction temperature cools to +150°C, the output turns
back on and tries to reestablish regulation. Current
limiting and thermal protection continue until the fault is
removed. For continuous operation, do not exceed the
absolute maximum junction temperature rating of
TJ = +150°C.

Shutdown Mode
The MAX8526/MAX8527/MAX8528 include an enable
input. To shut down the device, pull EN to GND. For
normal operation, connect the EN to IN. During shutdown, an internal 10kΩ resistor pulls down the output.
Power-OK (POK, MAX8527 Only)
The MAX8527 features a power-OK output to indicate
the status of the output. POK remains high when the
regulator output is within ±10% of its nominal output
voltage. If the output voltage falls/rises outside this
range, POK transitions low. This open-drain output
requires an external pullup resistor to IN. An internal
delay circuit prevents the POK from switching for 50µs
(typ) after the trip threshold is initially reached. If the
part is in shutdown mode, POK is low.
Power-On Reset (POR, MAX8528 Only)
R2
The MAX8528 features a power-on reset output that
transitions high 150ms (typ) after the output has risen
above 90% of its final value. This open-drain output
requires an external pullup resistor to IN. If the part is in
shutdown mode, falls below 90% of the nominal output
voltage, or experiences a short-circuit/thermal fault,
POR immediately transitions low.

1.425V to 3.6V Input, 2A,
0.2V Dropout LDO Regulators
Operating Region and Power Dissipation
The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC package and circuit board, the
temperature difference between the die junction and
ambient air, and the rate of airflow. The power dissipated in the device is P = IOUT x (VIN - VOUT).
The package features an exposed thermal pad on its
underside. This pad lowers the thermal resistance of
the package by providing a direct heat conduction
path from the die to the PC board.
Additionally, the ground pins (GND) perform the dual
function of providing an electrical connection to system
ground and channeling heat away. Connect the
exposed backside pad and GND to the system ground
using a large pad or ground plane, or multiple vias to
the ground-plane layer.
Applications Information
Capacitor Selection and
Regulator Stability
Capacitors are required at the MAX8526/MAX8527/
MAX8528 inputs and outputs for stable operation over
the full temperature range and with load currents up to
2A. Connect a 2.2µF capacitor between IN and ground
and a 10µF capacitor with low equivalent-series-resistance (ESR) capacitor between OUT and ground for 2A
8
output current. The input capacitor (CIN) lowers the
source impedance of the input supply. If input-supply
source impedance is high, place a larger input capacitor close to IN to prevent VIN sagging due to load transients. Smaller output capacitors can be used for output
currents less than 2A. Calculate COUT as follows:
COUT = IOUT(max) (1µF / 200mA)
Noise, PSRR, and Transient Response
The MAX8526/MAX8527/MAX8528 are designed to
operate with low dropout voltages and low quiescent
currents, while still maintaining good noise, transient
response, and AC rejection. See the Typical Operating
Characteristics for a plot of Power-Supply Rejection
Ratio (PSRR) vs. Frequency. When operating from
noisy sources, improved supply-noise rejection and
transient response can be achieved by increasing the
values of the input and output bypass capacitors and
through passive filtering techniques. The MAX8526/
MAX8527/MAX8528 load-transient response graphs
(see the Typical Operating Characteristics) show two
components of the output response: a DC shift from the
output impedance due to the load current change, and
the transient response. A typical transient overshoot for
a step change in the load current from 20mA to 2A is
45mV. Use larger output ceramic capacitors greater
than 10µF up to 100µF to attenuate the overshoot.
