A pin for a bypass capacitor is provided, which connects to the internal circuitry to lower the overall output noise level. TK70403 An internal PNP pass-transistor is used in order to achieve low dropout voltage (typically 30 mV at 2 mA load current). This makes it possible to maintain a stable output voltage as the battery voltage decreases, extending the useful battery life.

High is “on” (referenced to ground). When the on/off function is not used, connect the control terminal to VIN. The control current can be reduced by inserting a series resistor (RCONT) between the control terminal and VIN. Changes in the on/off level, due to this connection, are shown below. The dropout voltage is the difference between the input voltage and the output voltage, at which point the regulator starts to fall out of regulation. Below this value, the output voltage will fall as the input value is reduced. It is dependent upon the load current and the temperature. 2 VOUT = 1 M ICONT (µA) DROPOUT VOLTAGE (VDROP) OUTPUT CURRENT (IOUT(MAX)) The rated output current is specified under the condition where the output voltage drops 0.4 V when the output current is loaded. The input voltage is set to VOUT + 0.4 V. VOUT = 680 k 1 LINE REGULATION (Line Reg) RCONT = 820 k 0 Line regulation is the ability of the regulator to maintain a constant output voltage as the input voltage changes. The voltage is pulsed to minimize temperature effects. LOAD REGULATION (Load Reg) Load regulation is the ability of the regulator to maintain a constant output voltage as the load current changes. It is pulsed to minimize temperature effects. The load regulation is specified to 0.1 mA to 5.0 mA. QUIESCENT CURRENT (IQ) The quiescent current is the current which flows through the ground terminal under no load conditions (IOUT = 0 mA). RIPPLE REJECTION (RR) Ripple rejection is the ability of the regulator to attenuate the ripple content of the input voltage at the output. It is specified with 50 mVp-p, 400 Hz, IOUT = 2 mA superimposed on the input voltage, where VIN = VOUT(TYP) + 0.4 V. The ripple rejection is the ratio of the output vs. input and is expressed in dB. Page 6 1 2 VCONT (V) ON/OFF RESPONSE WITH CONTROL (SPEED) The turn-on time depends upon the value of the output capacitor and the noise bypass capacitor. The turn-on time will decrease with smaller value of either capacitor. The graph below shows the relationship between turn-on time and load capacitance. However, when the capacitance is small, load transient and line transient will worsen and the noise will increase. CL = 0.68 µF, CN = 1000 pF will be the best for fastest operation. GROUND CURRENT (IGND) .1 µ .01 µ CL = 0.45 µF CL = 0.68 µF CN Ground current is the current which flows through the ground pin(s). It is defined as IIN - IOUT, excluding control current. 0 1000 pF CL = 2.2 µF 100 pF 10 pF 0 0 CL = 4.7 µF 100 1000 RISE TIME (µs) January 1999 TOKO, Inc.

CL = 0.47 µF VOUT CL = 2.2 µF CL = 4.7 µF VCONT CL = 0.68 µF 0 50 TIME (µs) REDUCTION OF OUTPUT NOISE Although the architecture of the Toko regulators is designed to minimize semiconductor noise, further reduction can be achieved by increasing the size of the output capacitor. A more effective solution would be to add a capacitor to the noise bypass terminal. The value of the capacitor should be at least 0.1 µF or higher (higher values provide greater noise reduction). Although stable operation is possible without the noise bypass capacitor, this terminal has a high impedance and care should be taken to avoid a large circuit area on the printed circuit board when the capacitor is not used. Please note that several parameters are affected by the value of the capacitors and bench testing is recommended when deviating from standard values. INPUT AND OUTPUT CAPACITORS Toko regulators require an output capacitor in order to maintain regulator loop stability. The capacitor value should be at least 0.68 µF over actual ambient operating temperature. thermal conductivity, the junction temperature will be low even if the power dissipation is great. When mounted on the recommended mounting pad, the power dissipation of the SOT-26 is increased to 350 mW. For operation at ambient temperatures over 25 °C, the power dissipation of the SOT-26 device should be derated at 2.8 mW/°C. To determine the power dissipation for shutdown when mounted, attach the device on the actual PCB and deliberately increase the output current (or raise the input voltage) until the thermal protection circuit is activated. Calculate the power dissipation of the device by subtracting the output power from the input power. These measurements should allow for the ambient temperature of the PCB. The value obtained from PD /(150 °C - TA) is the derating factor. The PCB mounting pad should provide maximum thermal conductivity in order to maintain low device temperatures. As a general rule, the lower the temperature, the better the reliability of the device. The thermal resistance when mounted is expressed as follows: Tj = 0jA x PD + TA For Toko ICs, the internal limit for junction temperature is 150 °C. If the ambient temperature (TA) is 25 °C, then: 150 °C = 0jA x PD + 25 °C 0jA = 125 °C/ PD PD is the value when the thermal sensor is activated. A simple way to determine PD is to calculate VIN x IIN when the output side is shorted. Input current gradually falls as temperature rises. You should use the value when thermal equilibrium is reached. PACKAGE POWER DISSIPATION (PD) This is the power dissipation level at which the thermal sensor is activated. The IC contains an internal thermal sensor which monitors the junction temperature. When the junction temperature exceeds the monitor threshold of 150 °C, the IC is shut down. The junction temperature rises as the difference between the input power (VIN x IIN) and the output power (VOUT x IOUT) increases. The rate of temperature rise is greatly affected by the mounting pad configuration on the PCB, the board material, and the ambient temperature. When the IC mounting has good January 1999 TOKO, Inc.
