AAT3242
300mA/150mA Dual CMOS LDO Linear Regulator
General Description
Features
The AAT3242 is a dual low dropout linear regulator
with Power OK (POK) outputs. Two integrated regulators provide a high power 300mA output and a
lower power 150mA output, making this device
ideal for use with microprocessors and DSP cores
in portable products. Two POK pins provide open
drain output signals when their respective regulator
output is within regulation. The AAT3242 has independent input voltage and enable pins for increased
design flexibility. This device features a very low
quiescent current (140µA typical) and low dropout
voltages (typically 200mV and 400mV at the full
output current level), making it ideal for portable
applications where extended battery life is critical.
The AAT3242 has complete over-current/short-circuit and over-temperature protection circuits to
guard against extreme operating conditions.

Functional Description
The AAT3242 is a high performance dual LDO regulator with two Power OK pins. The first regulator (A)
sources 300mA of current while the second (B) regulator can deliver 150mA. Each regulator has an integrated Power OK comparator which indicates when
the respective output is out of regulation. The POK
pins are open drain outputs, and they are held low
when the respective regulator is in shutdown mode.
3242.2005.01.1.4
The device has independent enable pins to shutdown each LDO regulator for power conservation
in portable products. Forcing EN A/B low (<0.6V)
powers down the regulators and draws a maximum
of 1.0µA. The AAT3242 has short-circuit and thermal protection in case of adverse operating conditions. Device power dissipation is limited to the
package type and thermal dissipation properties.
Refer to the Thermal Considerations section of this
datasheet for details on device operation at maximum output current loads.

AAT3242
300mA/150mA Dual CMOS LDO Linear Regulator
Applications Information
To assure the maximum possible performance is
obtained from the AAT3242, please refer to the following application recommendations.
greater for COUT. If desired, COUT may be increased
without limit. In low output current applications
where output load is less than 10mA, the minimum
value for COUT can be as low as 0.47µF.
Capacitor Characteristics
Input Capacitor
Typically a 1µF or larger capacitor is recommended for CIN in most applications. A CIN capacitor is
not required for basic LDO regulator operation.
However, if the AAT3242 is physically located more
than three centimeters from an input power source,
a CIN capacitor will be needed for stable operation.
CIN should be located as closely to the device VIN
pin as practically possible. CIN values greater than
1µF will offer superior input line transient response
and will assist in maximizing the highest possible
power supply ripple rejection.
Ceramic, tantalum, or aluminum electrolytic capacitors may be selected for CIN. There is no specific
capacitor ESR requirement for CIN. However, for
300mA LDO regulator output operation, ceramic
capacitors are recommended for CIN due to their
inherent capability over tantalum capacitors to withstand input current surges from low impedance
sources such as batteries in portable devices.
Output Capacitor
For proper load voltage regulation and operational
stability, a capacitor is required between pins VOUT
and GND. The COUT capacitor connection to the
LDO regulator ground pin should be made as direct
as practically possible for maximum device performance. The AAT3242 has been specifically
designed to function with very low ESR ceramic
capacitors. For best performance, ceramic capacitors are recommended.
Typical output capacitor values for maximum output current conditions range from 1µF to 10µF.
Applications utilizing the exceptionally low output
noise and optimum power supply ripple rejection
characteristics of the AAT3242 should use 2.2µF or
10
Ceramic composition capacitors are highly recommended over all other types of capacitors for use
with the AAT3242. Ceramic capacitors offer many
advantages over their tantalum and aluminum electrolytic counterparts. A ceramic capacitor typically
has very low ESR, is lower cost, has a smaller PCB
footprint, and is non-polarized. Line and load transient response of the LDO regulator is improved by
using low ESR ceramic capacitors. Since ceramic
capacitors are non-polarized, they are not prone to
incorrect connection damage.
Equivalent Series Resistance
ESR is a very important characteristic to consider
when selecting a capacitor. ESR is the internal
series resistance associated with a capacitor that
includes lead resistance, internal connections, size
and area, material composition, and ambient temperature. Typically, capacitor ESR is measured in
milliohms for ceramic capacitors and can range to
more than several ohms for tantalum or aluminum
electrolytic capacitors.
Ceramic Capacitor Materials
Ceramic capacitors less than 0.1µF are typically
made from NPO or COG materials. NPO and COG
materials are typically tight tolerance and are very
stable over temperature. Larger capacitor values
are typically composed of X7R, X5R, Z5U, and
Y5V dielectric materials. Large ceramic capacitors, typically greater than 2.2µF, are often available in the low-cost Y5V and Z5U dielectrics.
These two material types are not recommended for
use with LDO regulators since the capacitor tolerance can vary more than ±50% over the operating
temperature range of the device. A 2.2µF Y5V
capacitor could be reduced to 1µF over tempera-
3242.2005.01.1.4
AAT3242
300mA/150mA Dual CMOS LDO Linear Regulator
ture; this could cause problems for circuit operation. X7R and X5R dielectrics are much more desirable. The temperature tolerance of X7R dielectric
is better than ±15%. Capacitor area is another
contributor to ESR. Capacitors which are physically large in size will have a lower ESR when compared to a smaller sized capacitor of an equivalent
material and capacitance value. These larger
devices can improve circuit transient response
when compared to an equal value capacitor in a
smaller package size. Consult capacitor vendor
data sheets carefully when selecting capacitors for
LDO regulators.
POK Output
The AAT3242 features integrated Power OK comparators which can be used as an error flag. The
POK open drain output goes low when output voltage is 6% (typ) below its nominal regulation voltage. Additionally, any time one of the regulators is
in shutdown, the respective POK output is pulled
low. Connect a pull-up resistor from POKA to
OUTA, and POKB to OUTB.
Enable Function
The AAT3242 features an LDO regulator enable/disable function. Each LDO has its own dedicated
enable pin. These pins (EN) are active high and are
compatible with CMOS logic. To assure the LDO
regulators will switch on, the ENA/B must be greater
than 1.6V. The LDO regulators will shut down when
the voltage on the ENA/B pins falls below 0.6V. In
shutdown, the AAT3242 will consume less than
1.0µA of current. If the enable function is not needed in a specific application, it may be tied to VIN to
keep the LDO regulator in a continuously on state.
When the LDO regulators are in shutdown mode,
an internal 20Ω resistor is connected between
VOUT and GND. This is intended to discharge COUT
when the LDO regulators are disabled. The internal
20Ω has no adverse effects on device turn-on time.
Short Circuit Protection
The AAT3242 contains an internal short-circuit protection circuit that will trigger when the output load
3242.2005.01.1.4
current exceeds the internal threshold limit. Under
short-circuit conditions, the output of the LDO regulator will be current limited until the short-circuit
condition is removed from the output or LDO regulator package power dissipation exceeds the
device thermal limit.
Thermal Protection
The AAT3242 has an internal thermal protection circuit which will turn on when the device die temperature exceeds 145°C. The LDO regulator output will
remain in a shutdown state until the internal die
temperature falls back below the 145°C trip point.
The combination and interaction between the shortcircuit and thermal protection systems allows the
LDO regulators to withstand indefinite short-circuit
conditions without sustaining permanent damage.
No-Load Stability
The AAT3242 is designed to maintain output voltage regulation and stability under operational no
load conditions. This is an important characteristic
for applications where the output current may drop
to zero.
Reverse Output-to-Input Voltage
Conditions and Protection
Under normal operating conditions, a parasitic diode
exists between the output and input of the LDO regulator. The input voltage should always remain
greater than the output load voltage maintaining a
reverse bias on the internal parasitic diode.
Conditions where VOUT might exceed VIN should be
avoided since this would forward bias the internal
parasitic diode and allow excessive current flow into
the VOUT pin, possibly damaging the LDO regulator.
In applications where there is a possibility of VOUT
exceeding VIN for brief amounts of time during normal operation, the use of a larger value CIN capacitor is highly recommended. A larger value of CIN with
respect to COUT will effect a slower CIN decay rate
during shutdown, thus preventing VOUT from
exceeding VIN. In applications where there is a
greater danger of VOUT exceeding VIN for extended
periods of time, it is recommended to place a

Thermal Considerations and High
Output Current Applications
The AAT3242 is designed to deliver continuous
output load currents of 300mA and 150mA under
normal operations, and can supply up to 500mA
during circuit start-up conditions. This is desirable
for circuit applications where there might be a brief
high in-rush current during a power-on event.
The limiting characteristic for the maximum output
load current safe operating area is essentially
package power dissipation and the internal preset
thermal limit of the device. In order to obtain high
operating currents, careful device layout and circuit
operating conditions need to be taken into account.
The following discussions will assume the LDO
regulator is mounted on a printed circuit board utilizing the minimum recommended footprint as stated in the layout considerations section of this document. At any given ambient temperature (TA), the
TJ(MAX) - TA
θJA
Constants for the AAT3242 are TJ(MAX) (the maximum junction temperature for the device, which is
125°C) and θJA = 110°C/W (the package thermal
resistance). Typically, maximum conditions are calculated at the maximum operating temperature of TA
= 85°C and under normal ambient conditions where
TA = 25°C. Given TA = 85°C, the maximum package
power dissipation is 364mW. At TA = 25°C, the maximum package power dissipation is 909mW.
The maximum continuous output current for the
AAT3242 is a function of the package power dissipation and the input-to-output voltage drop across
the LDO regulator. To determine the maximum
output current for a given output voltage, refer to
the following equation. This calculation accounts
for the total power dissipation of the LDO regulator,
including that caused by ground current.
PD(MAX) = [(VIN - VOUTA)IOUTA + (VIN x IGND)] + [(VIN - VOUTB)IOUTB + (VIN x IGND)]
This formula can be solved for IOUTA to determine the maximum output current for LDOA:
IOUTA(MAX) =
12
PD(MAX) - (2×VIN × IGND) - (VIN - VOUTB) × IOUTB
VIN - VOUTA

300mA/150mA Dual CMOS LDO Linear Regulator
The following is an example for a 2.5V output:
From the discussion above, PD(MAX) was determined to equal 909mW at TA = 25°C.
VOUTA = 2.5V
VOUTB = 1.5V
IOUTB = 150mA
VIN = 4.2V
IGND = 125µA
IOUTA(MAX) =
909mW - (2 × 4.2V × 125µA) - (4.2 - 1.5) × 150mA
4.2 - 2.5
IOUTA(MAX) = 296mA
Therefore, with Regulator B delivering 150mA at 1.5V, Regulator A can sustain a constant 2.5V output at a
296mA load current at an ambient temperature of 25°C. Higher input-to-output voltage differentials can be
obtained with the AAT3242, while maintaining device functions within the thermal safe operating area. To
accomplish this, the device thermal resistance must be reduced by increasing the heat sink area or by operating the LDO regulator in a duty-cycled mode.
For example, an application requires VIN = 4.2V while VOUT = 1.5V at a 500mA load and TA = 25°C. To maintain this high input voltage and output current level, the LDO regulator must be operated in a duty-cycled mode.
Refer to the following calculation for duty-cycle operation:
PD(MAX) is assumed to be 909mW
IGND = 125µA
IOUT = 500mA
VIN = 4.2V
VOUT = 1.5V
%DC =
100(PD(MAX))
[(VIN - VOUTA)IOUTA + (VIN × IGND)] + [(VIN - VOUTB)IOUTB + (VIN × IGND)]
%DC =
100(909mW)
[(4.2V - 1.5V)500mA + (4.2V × 125µA)] + [(4.2V - 1.5V)200mA + (4.2V × 125µA)]
%DC = 48.10%
For a 500mA output current and a 2.7V drop across the AAT3242 at an ambient temperature of 25°C, the maximum on-time duty cycle for the device would be 48.10%.
