The TK732xx and the external PNP power transistor provide standard output voltages from 2 to 11 V and output current from 100 mA to 5 A. By utilizing an external PNP power transistor, low dropout voltage at high current can be readily achieved. The internal electronic switch can be controlled by TTL or CMOS logic levels. The device is in the “on” state when the control pin is pulled to a high logic level. A pin for a bypass capacitor, which connects to the internal circuitry, is provided to lower the overall output noise level. TK732xx CONTROL BASE NOISE BYPASS VSENSE CPULSE GND 01 S VIN The current limit characteristics can be configured as continuous (constant current) or pulsed (cycling). An internal thermal shutdown circuit limits the junction temperatures to below 150 °C. In the “off” mode, the output of the regulator becomes a high impedance. This prevents the output capacitor from being rapidly discharged for backup to the load.

TK732xx DEFINITION AND EXPLANATION OF TECHNICAL TERMS OUTPUT VOLTAGE (VOUT) RIPPLE REJECTION RATIO (RR) The output voltage is specified with VIN = (VOUT(TYP) + 1 V) and IOUT = 30 mA. Ripple rejection is the ability of the regulator to attenuate the ripple content of the input voltage at the output. It is specified with 100 mVrms, 400 Hz superimposed on the input voltage, where VIN = VOUT(TYP) + 1.5 V. The output decoupling capacitor is set to 10 µF, the noise bypass capacitor is set to 0.1 µF, and the load current is set to 30 mA. Ripple rejection is the ratio of the ripple content of the output vs. the input and is expressed in dB. DROPOUT VOLTAGE (VDROP) 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 voltage is reduced. It is dependent upon the load current, the external transistor and the junction temperature. BASE CONTROL CURRENT (IBASE) The base control current is the drive current for the base of the external transistor. STANDBY CURRENT (ISTBY) Standby current is the current which flows into the regulator when the output is turned off by the control function (VCONT = 0 V). It is measured with VIN = 8 V (9 V for the 8 V output device). REMOTE SENSING (VSENSE) OUTPUT CURRENT (IOUT) The output current depends on the characteristics of the external transistor and current limit setting. LINE REGULATION (Line Reg) The VSENSE pin is the output voltage sensing pin. If the voltage drop to the load caused by the PCB etch resistance cannot be disregarded, the voltage drop can be compensated by connecting the VSENSE pin as shown below. Line regulation is the ability of the regulator to maintain a constant output voltage as the input voltage changes. The line regulation is specified as the input voltage is changed from VIN = VOUT(TYP) + 1 V to VIN = VOUT(TYP) + 6 V. COLLECTOR EXTERNAL TRANSISTOR EMITTER VOUT BASE 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 a pulsed measurement to minimize temperature effects. Load regulation depends on the external transistor. CL RIPK TK732XX QUIESCENT CURRENT (IQ) The quiescent current is the current which flows through the ground terminal under no load conditions (IOUT = 0 mA) and excludes the control pin current. The length of the VSENSE etch should be limited to 30 cm (11.8 in.) maximum. GROUND CURRENT (IGND) Ground current is the current which flows through the ground pin(s). It is defined as IIN - IOUT, excluding control current. January 1999 TOKO, Inc. Page 9 TK732xx DEFINITION AND EXPLANATION OF TECHNICAL TERMS (CONT.) SENSOR CIRCUITS Overcurrent Sensor The overcurrent sensor protects the device if the output is shorted to ground. Thermal Sensor The thermal sensor protects the device if the junction temperature exceeds the safe value (Tj = 150 °C). This temperature rise can be caused by extreme heat, excessive power dissipation caused by large output voltage drops, or excessive output current. The regulator will shut off when the temperature exceeds the safe value. As the junction temperature decreases, the regulator will begin to operate again. Under sustained fault conditions, the regulator output will oscillate as the device turns off then resets. Damage may occur to the device under extreme fault conditions. Reverse Voltage Protection Reverse voltage protection prevents damage due to the output voltage being higher than the input voltage. This fault condition can occur when the output capacitor remains charged and the input is reduced to zero, or when an external voltage higher than the input voltage is applied to the output side. 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 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-23L-8 is increased to 600 mW. For operation at ambient temperatures over 25 °C, the power dissipation of the SOT-23L-8 device should be derated at 4.8 mW/°C. To determine the power dissipation for shutdown when mounted, attach the device on the actual PCB and Page 10 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. The range of usable currents can also be found from the graph below.

TK732xx DEFINITIONS AND TERMS (CONT.) 3) Plot PD1 against 25 °C 4) Connect PD1 to the point corresponding to the 150 °C with a straight line. 5) In design, take a vertical line from the maximum operating temperature (e.g., 75 °C) to the derating curve. 6) Read off the value of PD against the point at which the vertical line intersects the derating curve. This is taken as the maximum power dissipation, DPD. The maximum operating current is: IOUT = (DPD / (VIN(MAX) - VOUT) 750 MOUNTED AS SHOWN PD (mW) 600 APPLICATION INFORMATION INPUT-OUTPUT CAPACITORS The output capacitor is necessary for stable operation. The regulator may oscillate if the output capacitor is too small or missing. The output capacitor size is determined by load, transient response and external transistor used. Evaluation in the circuit is recommended to ensure performance requirements are satisfied. A minimum of 4.7 µF is necessary for stability, with twice that value recommended. The minimum recommended input capacitor is 1 µF. Problems do not occur with larger values of capacitance. However, extremely low ESR may result in unstable operation. Thus, the use of large value ceramic capacitors is not recommended on the output.

The output current limit is set by RIPK according to the following equation: ISET (mA) = 100 (mV) / RIPK (Ω) VOUT IOUT During the initial turn-on, charge (surge) current flows to the output capacitor. This IC has a possibility for the current limit to operate and to turn off the output by the charge current of the output capacitor. Therefore, the relationship between CL and CP is set as shown in the graph below: If the continuous current limit mode is also used for output short circuit protection, the ISET value is set 50% to 100% more than the maximum operating current. The current transistor is selected from the ISET value. The output voltage drops when the output current exceeds the ISET value. However, the output voltage returns to normal once the output current decreases below the ISET value. 1000 CL (µF) 100 10 1 0.01 STABLE REGION 0.1 1 10 CP (µF) Page 12 January 1999 TOKO, Inc.

VOLTAGE BACKUP OPERATION (HOLDUP TIME) OUTPUT VOLTAGE ADJUST VOUT VOUT RADJ VIN 1000 pF VOLTAGE DETECTOR IC µ PRO 732xx VIN TK732xx VSENSE RESET VCONT OFF CL VCONT VCONT C L becomes the backup power supply when the microprocessor is reset with the voltage detector IC simultaneously with turning OFF the TK732xx. CL provides the holdup time necessary to do an orderly shutdown of the microprocessor. When a highly accurate output voltage is necessary, the output can be adjusted. As shown above, higher output resolution can be achieved by putting a resistor (RADJ) in the VSENSE pin in parallel with a 1000 pF capacitor. A value of 2 K provides an adjustment of 50 mV typically. Note: using this technique, the output voltage can only be adjusted higher.

The series resistor R is put in the input line of the low output voltage regulator in order to prevent overdissipation. The voltage dropped across the resistor reduces the large input-tooutput voltage across the regulator, reducing the power dissipation in the device. Page 14 Continuous Current Limit Mode: ISET (mA) = 100 (mV) / RIPK (Ω) January 1999 TOKO, Inc. TK732xx APPLICATION INFORMATION (CONT.) ISET (Continuous Current Limit Mode) is set to the desired charging current. CHARGING CHARACTERISTICS circuit condition, Tr1 is turned “off.” This converts the circuit into the pulse current limit mode of operation, reducing the power dissipation in the pass transistor. The transition between the continuous and pulse current limit modes can be controlled by adjusting the operating point of Tr1 by the value of resistor R.
