Rev. 1.8 07/03/01 IRU1261 PIN DESCRIPTIONS PIN # PIN SYMBOL 1 Vctrl PIN DESCRIPTION The control input pin of the regulator. This pin is connected, via a 10Ω resistor, to the 5V supply to provide the base current for the pass transistor of both regulators. This allows the regulator to have very low dropout voltage which allows one to generate a well regulated 2.5V supply from the 3.3V input. A high frequency, 1µF capacitor is connected between this pin and Vin pin to insure stability. 2 Vout2 The output #2 (high current) of the regulator. A minimum of 100µF capacitor must be connected from this pin to ground to insure stability. 3 Gnd This pin is connected to ground. It is also the Tab of the package. 4 Vin The power input pin of the regulator. Typically a large storage capacitor is connected from this pin to ground to insure that the input voltage does not sag below the minimum drop out voltage during the load transient response. This pin must always be higher than both Vout pins by the amount of the dropout voltage (see data sheet) in order for the device to regulate properly. 5 Vout1 The output #1 (low current) of the regulator. A minimum of 100µF capacitor must be connected from this pin to ground to insure stability.

This voltage regulator is designed specifically for PentiumII processor applications requiring 2.5V and 1.5V supplies, eliminating the need for a second regulator resulting in lower overall system cost. The IRU1261 is designed to take advantage of 5V supply to provide the drive for the pass transistor, allowing 2.5V supply to be generated from 3.3V input. This feature improves the power dissipation of the 2.5V regulator substantially allowing a smaller heat sink to be used for the application. Compared to the IRU1260 dual adjustable regulator, the IRU1261 includes the resistor dividers that are otherwise needed with the IRU1260, eliminating four external components and their tolerances, resulting in a more accurate initial accuracy for each output voltage. Other features of the device include: fast response to sudden load current changes, such as GTL+ termination application and thermal shutdown protection to protect the device if an overload condition occurs. mum continuous load operation the junction temperature is kept below this number. Two examples are given which shows the steps in selecting the proper regulator heat sink for driving the Pentium II processor GTL+ termination resistors and the Clock IC using IRU1261 in TO-220 and TO-263 packages. Example # 1: Assuming the following specifications: VIN = 3.3V VOUT2 = 1.5V VOUT1 = 2.5V IOUT2(MAX) = 5.4A IOUT1(MAX) = 0.4A TA = 35$C The steps for selecting a proper heat sink to keep the junction temperature below 135$C is given as: 1) Calculate the maximum power dissipation using: Stability The IRU1261 requires the use of an output capacitor as part of the frequency compensation in order to make the regulator stable. Typical designs for the microprocessor applications use standard electrolytic capacitors with typical ESR in the range of 50 to 100mΩ and the output capacitance of 500 to 1000µF. Fortunately as the capacitance increases, the ESR decreases resulting in a fixed RC time constant. The IRU1261 takes advantage of this phenomena in making the overall regulator loop stable. For most applications a minimum of 100µF aluminum electrolytic capacitor with the maximum ESR of 0.3Ω such as Sanyo, MVGX series, Panasonic FA series as well as the Nichicon PL series insures both stability and good transient response. The IRU1261 also requires a 1µF ceramic capacitor connected from Vin to Vctrl and a 10Ω, 0.1W resistor in series with Vctrl pin in order to further insure stability. Thermal Design The IRU1261 incorporates an internal thermal shutdown that protects the device when the junction temperature exceeds the maximum allowable junction temperature. Although this device can operate with junction temperatures in the range of 150$C, it is recommended that the selected heat sink be chosen such that during maxi- 4 PD = IOUT1 × (VIN - VOUT1) + IOUT2 × (VIN - VOUT2) PD = 0.4 × (3.3 - 2.5) + 5.4 × (3.3 - 1.5) = 10W 2) Select a package from the data sheet and record its junction to case (or Tab) thermal resistance. Selecting TO-220 package gives us: θJC = 2.7$C/W 3) Assuming that the heat sink is black anodized, calculate the maximum heat sink temperature allowed: Assume, θCS = 0.05$C/W (heat-sink-to-case thermal resistance for black anodized) TS = TJ - PD × (θJC + θCS) TS = 135 - 10 × (2.7 + 0.05) = 107.4$C 4) With the maximum heat sink temperature calculated in the previous step, the heat-sink-to-air thermal resistance θSA is calculated as follows: ∆T = TS - TA = 107.4 - 35 = 72.4$C θSA = ∆T 72.4 = = 7.24$C/W PD 10 Rev. 1.8 07/03/01 IRU1261 5) Next, a heat sink with lower θSA than the one calculated in Step 4 must be selected. One way to do this is to simply look at the graphs of the “Heat Sink Temp Rise Above the Ambient” vs. the “Power Dissipation” and select a heat sink that results in lower temperature rise than the one calculated in previous step. The following heat sinks from AAVID and Thermalloy meet this criteria.

Layout Consideration The IRU1261 like all other high speed linear regulators need to be properly laid out to insure stable operation. The most important component is the output capacitor, which needs to be placed close to the output pin and connected to this pin using a plane connection with a low inductance path. 5 IRU1261 TYPICAL APPLICATION PENTIUM ΙΙ APPLICATION 3.3V C1 IRU1261 1261app1-1.3 Vout1 5 Vin 4 Gnd 3 Vout2 2 Vctrl 1 2.5V / 1A C3 C2 1.5V / 6A C4 5V R1 Figure 3 - Typical application of IRU1261 in the Pentium ΙΙ design with the 1.5V output providing for GTL+ termination while 2.5V supplies the clock chip Note: Pentium ΙΙ is trademark of Intel Corp.
