LM9070
Low-Dropout System Voltage Regulator with Keep-Alive
ON/OFF Control
General Description
Features
The LM9070 is a 5V, 3% accurate, 250 mA low-dropout voltage regulator. The regulator features an active low delayed
reset output flag which can be used to reset a microprocessor system on turn-ON and in the event that the regulator
output falls out of regulation for any reason. An external capacitor programs a delay time interval before the reset output can return high.
Designed for automotive application the LM9070 contains a
variety of protection features such as reverse battery,
over-voltage shutdown, thermal shutdown, input transient
protection and a wide operating temperature range.
A unique two-input logic control scheme is used to enable or
disable the regulator output. An ON/OFF input can be provided by an ignition switch derived signal while a second,
Keep-Alive input, is generated by a system controller. This
allows for a system to remain ON after ignition has been
switched OFF. The system controller can then execute a
power-down routine and after which command the regulator
OFF to a low quiescent current state (60 µA max).
Design techniques have been employed to allow the regulator to remain operational and not generate false reset signals
when subjected to high levels of RF energy (300V/m from
2 MHz to 400 MHz).

switch. If this input becomes open circuited, an internal
pull-down resistor ensures that the regulator turns OFF.
When the regulator is switched OFF the current load on the
battery drops to less than 60 µA. With the possibility in many
applications for VIN and the ON/OFF input pins to be connected in a system through long lengths of wire, the ESD
protection of these pins has been increased to 12 kV with the
addition of small input bypass capacitors.
Application Information
The LM9070 voltage regulator has been optimized for use in
microprocessor based automotive systems. Several unique
design features have been incorporated to address many
FMEA (Failure Mode Effects Analysis) concerns for fail-safe
system performance.
FAULT TOLERANT FEATURES
While not specifically guaranteed due to production testing
limitations, the LM9070 has been tested and shown to continue to provide a regulated output and, not generate an erroneous system reset signal while subjected to high levels of
RF electric field energy (up to 300 V/m signal strength over
a 2 MHz to 400 MHz frequency range). This is very important
in vehicle safety related applications where the system must
continue to operate normally. To maintain this immunity to
RFI the output bypass capacitor is important (47 µF is recommended).
This regulator is suitable for applications where continuous
connection to the battery is required (Refer to the Typical Application Circuit ). ON/OFF control of the regulator and system can be accomplished by switching the ON/OFF input to
the battery or ignition supply VIN supply through a SPST

RESET FLAG
(Continued)
Excessive loading of the output to the point where the output
voltage drops by 300 mV to 500 mV will signal a reset flag to
the micro. This will warn of a VCC supply that may produce
unpredictable operation of the system. On power-up and recovery from a fault condition the delay capacitor is used to
hold the micro in a reset condition for a programmable time
interval to allow the system operating voltages and
clock to stabilize before executing code. The typical delay
time interval can be estimated using the following equation:
An output bypass capacitor of at least 10 µF is required for
stability (47 µF is recommended). The ESR of this capacitor
should be less than 3Ω. An input capacitor of 1 µF or larger
is recommended to improve line transient and noise performance.
With the Keep-Alive input, a system microprocessor has the
ability to keep the regulator ON (with a logic “0” on
Keep-Alive) after the ON/OFF input has been commanded
OFF. A power-down sequence, when system variables are
typically stored in programmable memory, can be executed
and take as much time as necessary. At the end of the operation the micro then pulls Keep-Alive high and the regulator and system turn OFF and revert to the low quiescent current standby mode.
For additional system reliability, consideration has been
made for the possibility of a short circuited load at the output
of the regulator. When the regulator is switched ON, conventional current limiting and thermal shutdown protect the regulator. When the regulator is switched OFF however, a
grounded VCC supply to the micro (due to the shorted regulator output) will force the Keep-Alive input to be low and
thus try to maintain the Keep-Alive mode of operation. With
a shorted load, the drain on the battery could be as high as
1.5A. A separate internal circuit monitors the output voltage
of the regulator. If VOUT is less than 4V, as would be the case
with a shorted load, the Keep-Alive function is logically disabled to ensure that the regulator turns OFF and reverts to
only a 50 µA load on the battery.
INPUT STABILITY
Low dropout voltage regulators which utilize a PNP power
transistor usually exhibit a large increase in current when in
dropout (VIN < 5.5V). This increase is caused by the saturation characteristics (β reduction) of the PNP transistor. To
significantly minimize this increase in current the LM9070
detects when the PNP enters saturation and reduces the operating current.
This reduction in input current can create a stability problem
in applications with higher load current ( > 100 mA) where
the input voltage is applied through a long length of wire,
which in effect adds a significant amount of inductance in series with the input. The drop in input current may create a
positive input voltage transient which may take the PNP out
of saturation. If the input voltage is held constant at the
threshold where the PNP is going in and out of saturation, an
oscillation may be created.
This is only observed where significant series inductance is
present in the input supply line and when the rise and fall
time of the input supply is very slow. If the application and removal of the input voltage changes at a rate greater than 500
mV/µs, the input voltage moves through the dropout region
of operation (VIN of 3V to 5.5V) too quickly for an oscillation
to be established.
DS012831-24
FIGURE 2. Control Logic Not Used
MICROPROCESSOR SYSTEM REGULATOR WITH
KEEP-ALIVE INTERVAL AT TURN-OFF
The following circuit illustrates a system application utilizing
both of the logic control inputs of the LM9070. Closing the
ON/OFF switch powers ON the system. Once powered, the
system controller sets the Keep-Alive line low. The NPN
transistor is used only to signal the controller that the ON/
OFF switch has been opened and the system is to be turned
OFF. Upon detecting this high level at the ON/OFF Sense input line, the controller can then perform a power down routine. The system will remain fully powered until the controller
commands total shut down by taking the Keep-Alive line
high. The system then shuts OFF and reverts to a very low
current drain standby condition until switched back on.
Conventional load dump protection is built in to withstand up
to +60V and −50V transients. A 1 kΩ resistor in series with
the ON/OFF and Keep-Alive inputs are recommended to
provide the same level of transient protection for these pins
if required. Protection against reverse polarity battery connections is also built in. With a reversed battery the output of
the LM9070 will not go more negative than one diode drop
below ground. This will prevent damage to any of the 5V load
circuits.
For applications where the control logic is not required the
logic pins should be configured as shown in Figure 2. A
separate device, called the LM9071, can be used. The
LM9071 is available in a 5-lead TO-220 package and does
not provide control logic functions, but still retains all of the
protection features of the LM9070.
