50mA CMOS LDO WITH SHUTDOWN AND ERROR OUTPUT PRELIMINARY INFORMATION TC1054 TC1054 50mA CMOS LDO WITH SHUTDOWN AND ERROR OUTPUT FEATURES GENERAL DESCRIPTION ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ The TC1054 is a high accuracy (typically ±0.5%) CMOS upgrade for older (bipolar) low dropout regulators. Designed specifically for battery-operated systems, the TC1054’s CMOS construction eliminates wasted ground current, significantly extending battery life. Total supply current is typically 50µA at full load (20 to 60 times lower than in bipolar regulators!). TC1054 key features include ultra low noise operation, very low dropout voltage (typically 100mV at full load) and internal feed-forward compensation for fast response to step changes in load. An error output (ERROR) is asserted when the TC1054 is out-of-regulation (due to a low input voltage or excessive output current). ERROR can be used as a low battery warning or as a processor RESET signal (with the addition of an external RC network). Supply current is reduced to less than 1µA, and both VOUT and ERROR are disabled when the shutdown input is low. The TC1054 incorporates both over-temperature and over-current protection. The TC1054 is stable with an output capacitor of only 1µF and has a maximum output current of 50mA. For higher output current regulators, please see the TC1055 (IOUT = 100mA) regulator and TC1107, TC1108 (IOUT = 300mA) data sheets. ■ ■ ■ Zero Ground Current for Longer Battery Life Very Low Dropout Voltage Guaranteed 50mA Output High Output Voltage Accuracy Standard or Custom Output Voltages Power-Saving Shutdown Mode ERROR Output can be Used as a Low Battery Detector, or Processor Reset Generator Over-Current and Over-Temperature Protection Space-Saving SOT-23A-5 Package Pin Compatible Upgrades for Bipolar Regulators APPLICATIONS ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Battery Operated Systems Portable Computers Medical Instruments Instrumentation Cellular/GSMS/PHS Phones Linear Post-Regulators for SMPS Pagers ORDERING INFORMATION Part No. Output Voltage **(V) Package Junction Temp.

Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its nominal value. 5. Ground pin current is the regulator pass transistor gate current. The total current drawn from the input supply is the sum of the load current, ground current and supply current (i.e. IIN = ISUPPLY + IGND + ILOAD). 6. Thermal Regulation is defined as the change in output voltage at a time T after a change in power dissipation is applied, excluding load or line regulation effects. Specifications are for a current pulse equal to ILMAX at VIN = 6V for T = 10msec. 7. The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of ambient temperature, the maximum allowable junction temperature and the thermal resistance from junction-to-air (i.e. TA, TJ, qJA).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The TC1054 is a precision fixed output voltage regulator. (If an adjustable version is desired, please see the TC1070 or TC1071 data sheets.) Unlike the bipolar regulators, the TC1054 supply current does not increase with load current. In addition, VOUT remains stable and within regulation at very low load currents (an important consideration in RTC and CMOS RAM battery back-up applications). Figure 1 shows a typical application circuit. The regulator is enabled any time the shutdown input (SHDN) is at or above VIH, and shutdown (disabled) when SHDN is at or below VIL. SHDN may be controlled by a CMOS logic gate, or I/O port of a microcontroller. If the SHDN input is not required, it should be connected directly to the input supply. While in shutdown, supply current decreases to 0.05µA (typical) and VOUT falls to zero volts and ERROR is open circuited. VOUT HYSTERESIS (VHYS) VTH ERROR VIH VOL Figure 2. ERROR Output Operation Output Capacitor 1µF BATTERY A 1µF(min) capacitor from VOUT to ground is recommended. The output capacitor should have an effective series resistance of 5Ω or less, and a resonant frequency above 1MHz. A 1µF capacitor should be connected from VIN to GND if there is more than 10 inches of wire between the regulator and the AC filter capacitor, or if a battery is used as the power source. Aluminum electrolytic or tantalum capacitor types can be used. (Since many aluminum electrolytic capacitors freeze at approximately – 30°C, solid tantalums are recommended for applications operating below – 25°C.) When operating from sources other than batteries, supply-noise rejection and transient response can be improved by increasing the value of the input and output capacitors and employing passive filtering techniques.

Typical Application Circuit Thermal Considerations ERROR Open Drain Output Thermal Shutdown Integrated thermal protection circuitry shuts the regulator off when die temperature exceeds 160°C. The regulator remains off until the die temperature drops to approximately 150°C. ERROR is driven low whenever VOUT falls out of regulation by more than – 5% (typical). This condition may be caused by low input voltage, output current limiting, or thermal limiting. The ERROR threshold is 5% below rated VOUT regardless of the programmed output voltage value (e.g. ERROR = VOL at 4.75 (typ.) for a 5.0V regulator and 2.85V (typ.) for a 3.0V regulator). ERROR output operation is shown in Figure 2. Note that ERROR is active when VOUT falls to VTH, and inactive when VOUT rises above VTH = VHYS. As shown in Figure 1, ERROR can be used as a battery low flag, or as a processor RESET signal (with the addition of timing capacitor C2). R1 x C2 should be chosen to maintain ERROR below VIH of the processor RESET input for at least 200msec to allow time for the system to stabilize. TC1054-01 6/12/97 Power Dissipation The amount of power the regulator dissipates is primarily a function of input and output voltage, and output current. The following equation is used to calculate worst case actual power dissipation: 4 50mA CMOS LDO WITH SHUTDOWN AND ERROR OUTPUT PRELIMINARY INFORMATION TC1054 In this example, the TC1054 dissipates a maximum of only 18.5mW; far below the allowable limit of 318mW. In a similar manner, Equation 1 and Equation 2 can be used to calculate maximum current and/or input voltage limits. PD ≈ (VINMAX – VOUTMIN)ILOADMAX Where: PD VINMAX VOUTMIN ILOADMAX = Worst case actual power dissipation = Maximum voltage on VIN = Minimum regulator output voltage = Maximum output (load) current Layout Considerations The primary path of heat conduction out of the package is via the package leads. Therefore, layouts having a ground plane, wide traces at the pads, and wide power supply bus lines combine to lower θJA and therefore increase the maximum allowable power dissipation limit. Equation 1. The maximum allowable power dissipation (Equation 2) is a function of the maximum ambient temperature (TAMAX), the maximum allowable die temperature (125°C) and the thermal resistance from junction-to-air (θJA). SOT-23A-5 package has a θJA of approximately 220°C/Watt when mounted on a single layer FR4 dielectric copper clad PC board. PD MAX = (TJMAX – TJMAX) θJA Where all terms are previously defined. Equation 2. Equation 1 can be used in conjunction with Equation 2 to ensure regulator thermal operation is within limits. For example: Given: Find: VINMAX = 3.0V ±5% VOUTMIN = 2.7V ±0.5V ILOAD = 40mA TAMAX = 55°C 1. Actual power dissipation 2. Maximum allowable dissipation Actual power dissipation: PD ≈ (VINMAX – VOUTMIN)ILOADMAX = [(3.0 x 1.05) – (2.7 x .995)]40 x 10–3 = 18.5mW Maximum allowable power dissipation: PDMAX = (TJMAX – TAMAX) θJA = (125 – 55) 220 = 318mW TC1054-01 6/12/97 5 50mA CMOS LDO WITH SHUTDOWN AND ERROR OUTPUT PRELIMINARY INFORMATION TC1054 a & b = part number code + temperature range and voltage MARKINGS SOT-23A-5 TC1054 (V) 2.5 2.7 3.0 3.3 5.0 Code C1 C2 C3 C4 C6 c represents year and quarter code d represents lot ID number PACKAGE DIMENSIONS SOT-23A-5* 0.75 (1.90) REFERENCE .071 (1.80) .059 (1.50) .122 (3.10) .098 (2.50) .020 (0.50) .012 (0.30) .037 (0.95) REFERENCE .122 (3.10) .106 (2.70) .057 (1.45) .035 (0.90) .010 (0.25) .004 (0.09) 10° MAX. .006 (0.15) .000 (0.00) .022 (0.55) .008 (0.20) NOTE: *SOT-23A-5 is equivalent to the EIAJ (SC-74A) Dimensions: inches (mm) Sales Offices TelCom Semiconductor 1300 Terra Bella Avenue P.O.

In a similar manner, Equation 1 and Equation 2 can be used to calculate maximum current and/or input voltage limits. For example, the maximum allowable VIN is found by substituting the maximum allowable power dissipation of 318mW into Equation 1, from which VINMAX = 5.9V.
