SC1531(A) 200mA & 250mA SmartLDOsTM POWER MANAGEMENT Description Features u u u u Whenever VIN exceeds a predetermined threshold value, u the internal 3.3V linear regulator is enabled, and DR is u pulled high. u When VIN falls below a lower threshold value, DR is pulled u The SC1531(A) is designed to maintain a glitch-free 3.3V output when at least one of two inputs, 5V (VIN) and 3.3V (VAUX), is present. low and the internal linear regulator is turned off. DR has been designed to drive the gate of an external low threshold P-channel MOSFET, which can be used to connect the 3.3V supply directly to the regulator output. This ensures an uninterrupted 3.3V output even if VIN falls out of specification. A typical RDS(ON) of 400mW is recommended (320mW for SC1531A).

The internal 5V detector has its upper threshold (for VIN rising) set to 4.18V (typical) while the lower threshold (for VIN falling) is at 4.05V (typical) giving a hysteresis of approximately 130mV. The SENSE pin, which is connected to the load, connects internally to the inverting input of the LDO error amplifier. It enables tight regulation of the load voltage (while the 5V supply is present) despite variations in load current. Notes for Typical Application Circuit: (1) External switch (Q1): use Motorola MGSF1P02ELT1 or equivalent (PMOS, typical Gate Threshold Voltage = 1V, typical RDS(ON) = 0.4W at VGS = 2.5V) for SC1531. Use Vishay Si2301DS or equivalent for SC1531A. (2) Connection of VAUX (pin 3) is optional. The SC1531(A) is available in the popular SO-8 surface mount package.

Applications Information Introduction The SC1531(A) is intended for applications such as power managed PCI and network interface cards (NICs), where operation from a 3.3V VAUX supply may be required when the 5V supply has been shut down. It provides a very simple, low cost solution that uses very little pcb real estate. During regular operation, 3.3V power for the PCI card is provided by the SC1531(A)s on-board low dropout regulator, generated from the 5V supply. When the 5V supply is removed and 3.3V VAUX is available, the SC1531(A) connects this supply directly to its output using a tiny SOT-23 external p-channel FET. Connection of pin 3 (VAUX) to the 3.3V supply is optional, and adds active pull-down to the Drive pin. target is easily met using surface mount ceramic or tantalum capacitors. Component Selection P-channel bypass FET - selection of the external FET is determined by two main requirements: 1) the FET has to have a very low gate threshold (typically ~1V) in order to be sufficiently turned on with VGS £ 3.3V. 2) the FET RDS(ON) must be low enough such that: Input capacitors (5V) - Semtech recommends the use of a 4.7µF ceramic or tantalum capacitor plus a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor at the input. This allows for the device being some distance from any bulk capacitance on the rail. Additionally, input droop due to load transients is reduced, improving load transient response. Input capacitors (3.3V) - Semtech recommends decoupling this pin (if used) with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. Output capacitors - Semtech recommends a minimum bulk capacitance of 4.7µF at the output, along with a 0.1µF ceramic decoupling capacitor. Increasing the bulk capacitance will improve the overall transient response. The device is very tolerant of capacitor value and ESR variations, in fact, any combination of capacitors with C ³ 4.7µF and ESR < 1W is sufficient for stability. This ã 2000 Semtech Corp. VAUX − (I O ( MAX ) • R DS ( ON ) ) ≥ VO ( MIN ) 8 www.semtech.com SC1531(A) POWER MANAGEMENT Applications Information (Cont.) (Remember that at 125°C, RDS(ON) is generally 1.5x the value at 25°C.) This is readily achievable using pcb copper area to aid in conducting the heat away from the device (see Figure 1 on page 10). Heatsinking the bypass FET is not necessary - its power dissipation is given by: Thermal Considerations PD ( MAX ) = (I O ( MAX ) ) 2 • R DS ( ON )( MAX ) When operating from the 5V supply, the power dissipation in the SC1531(A) is approximately equal to the product of the output current and the input to output voltage differential: For IO = 200mA, and RDS(ON) = 0.6W, PD = 24mW. Layout Considerations PD ≈ (VIN − V OUT ) • I OUT While layout for linear devices is generally not as critical as for a switching application, careful attention to detail will ensure reliable operation. See Figure 1 on page 10 for a sample layout. The absolute worst-case dissipation is given by: PD ( MAX ) = (VIN − VO ( MAX ) ( MIN ) )• I O ( MAX ) + VAUX ( MAX ) • I Q ( AUX )( MAX ) Note that the VAUX (MAX) x I Q(AUX) term does not apply if VAUX is not available or not connected. 1) Attaching the part to a larger copper footprint will enable better heat transfer from the device, especially on PCBs where there are internal ground and power planes. 2) Place the bulk and decoupling capacitors close to the device for optimal transient response. 3) If the SENSE lead is being used, route it to the load using a seperate trace from the main VO path. If it is not being used, connect to pin 7 as shown. 4) The external bypass FET is shown close to the device for convenience only. Since it is not being switched, longer gate drive traces can be used without problem. Inserting VIN = 5.5V, VO = 3.234V, IO = 200mA, VAUX = 3.6V and IQ(AUX) = 2mA yields: PD ( MAX ) = 0 . 46 W Using this figure, we can calculate the maximum thermal impedance allowable to maintain TJ £ 125°C: R TH ( J − A )( MAX ) = (T J( MAX ) − TA (MAX ) ) PD( MAX ) = (125 − 70 ) = 120 °C / W 0 .46 R TH ( J − C )( MAX ) = 47 °C / W , therefore R TH ( C − A )( MAX ) = 73 °C / W ã 2000 Semtech Corp. 9 www.semtech.com SC1531(A) POWER MANAGEMENT Application Information (Cont.)
