L4993 Low drop voltage regulator Features Max DC supply voltage VS 40V Max output voltage tolerance ∆V0 +/-2% Max dropout voltage Vdp 400 mV Output current I0 150 mA Quiescent current Iqn 79 µA(1) SO-8 SO-20 1. Typical value with watchdog disabled. ■ Operating DC supply voltage range 5.6V to 31V ■ Reset circuit sensing the output voltage down to 1V ■ Programmable reset pulse delay with external capacitor ■ Watchdog ■ Programmable watchdog timer with external capacitor ■ Enable input for enabling/disabling the watchdog functionality ■ Thermal shutdown and short circuit protection ■ Wide temperature range (Tj = -40°C to 150°C) Table 1. Description The L4993 is a monolithic integrated 5V Voltage regulator with a low drop voltage at currents up to 150mA.The output voltage regulating element consists in a p-channel MOS and the regulation is performed regardless of input voltage transients up to 40V. The high precision of the output voltage is obtained with a pre-trimmed reference voltage. The L4993 is protected against short circuit and an over-temperature protection switches off the device in case of extremely high power dissipation. The L4993 watchdog is active when the Enable is high. State of the art features like reset and watchdog make this device particularly suitable to supply microprocessor systems in automotive applications.

The output capacitor C01 > 100nF is necessary for the stability of the regulation loop. In order to damp output voltage oscillations during high load current surges, it is recommended put an additional electrolytic capacitor C02 > 10µF at the output pin. 3.1 Voltage regulator Voltage regulator uses a p-channel transistor as a regulating element. With this structure, very low dropout voltage at current up to 500mA is obtained. The output voltage is regulated up to transient input supply voltage of 40V. No functional interruption due to over-voltage pulses is generated. A short circuit protection to GND is provided. The voltage regulator watchdog functionality can be disabled by putting WEn low. Figure 25. Behavior of output current versus regulated voltage Vo Vo Vo_ref Ishort Ilim Iout 15/30 Application information 3.2 L4993 Reset The reset circuit supervises the output voltage Vo. The Vo_th reset threshold is defined with the in-ternal reference voltage and a resistor output divider. If the output voltage becomes lower than Vo_th then Res goes low with a reaction time trr. The reset low signal is guaranteed for an output voltage Vo greater than 1V. When the output voltage becomes higher than Vo_th then Res goes high with a delay trd. This delay is obtained by an internal oscillator. The oscillator period is given by: Tosc = [(Vrhth-Vrlth) x Ctr] / Icr + [(Vrhth-Vrlth) x Ctr] / Idr where: Icr: is an internally generated charge current Idr: is an internally generated discharge current Vrhth, Vrlth: are two voltages defined with the output voltage and a resistor output divider Ctr: is an external capacitance. trd is given by: trd = 512 x Tosc Reset is active when En is high.

If pulses are missing, the Reset output pin is set to low. The pulse sequence time can be set within a wide range with the external capacitor, Ctw. The watchdog circuit discharges the capacitor Ctw, with the constant current Icwd. If the lower threshold Vwlth is reached, a watchdog reset is generated. To prevent this the microcontroller must generate a positive edge during the discharge of the capacitor before the voltage has reached the threshold Vwlth. In order to calculate the minimum time t, during which the micro-controller must output the positive edge, the following equation can be used: (Vwhth-Vwlth) x Ctw = Icwd x t Every Wi positive edge switches the current source from discharging to charging. The same happens when the lower threshold is reached. When the voltage reaches the upper threshold, Vwhth, the current switches from charging to discharging. The result is a saw-tooth voltage at the watchdog timer capacitor Ctw. Figure 27.
