Page No. : 1/16 RS7212 300mA CMOS LDO Linear Regulator with Enable and Fast Discharge Function General Description The RS7212 is a 4‐Low (Low‐dropout, Low‐quiescent Current, Low‐noise, Low‐cost) linear regulator with ON/OFF control. The device operates in the input voltage range from +2.2V to +7.0V and delivers 300mA output current. The high‐accuracy output voltage is preset at an internally trimmed voltage 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, 2.8V, 3.0V or 3.3V. Other output voltages can be mask‐optioned from 1.2V to 5.0V with 100mV increment. The RS7212 consists of a 1.0V reference compare amplifier, a P‐channel pass transistor, and an enable/disable logic circuit. Other features include short‐circuit protection, and thermal shutdown protection. The RS7212 is also compatible with low ESR ceramic capacitors which give added output stability. This stability can be maintained even during load fluctuations due to the excellent transient response of the chip. The RS7212 devices are available in SOT‐25 and VSON‐6 (2x2) packages.

Orister Corporation recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage. ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

DS‐RS7212‐02 September, 2009 www.Orister.com Page No. : 4/16 Detail Description The RS7212 is a low‐dropout linear regulator. The device provides preset 2.5V, 2.85V and 3.3V output voltages for output current up to 150mA. Other mask options for special output voltages from 1.2V to 5.0V with 100mV increment are also available. As illustrated in function block diagram, it consists of a 1.0V reference, error amplifier, a P‐channel pass transistor, an ON/OFF control logic and an internal feedback voltage divider. The 1.0V band gap reference is connected to the error amplifier, which compares this reference with the feedback voltage and amplifies the voltage difference. If the feedback voltage is lower than the reference voltage, the pass‐transistor gate is pulled lower, which allows more current to pass to the output pin and increases the output voltage. If the feedback voltage is too high, the pass transistor gate is pulled up to decrease the output voltage. The output voltage is feed back through an internal resistive divider connected to VOUT pin. Additional blocks include an output current limiter, thermal sensor, and shutdown logic. Internal P‐channel Pass Transistor The RS7212 features a P‐channel MOSFET pass transistor. Unlike similar designs using PNP pass transistors, P‐channel MOSFETs require no base drive, which reduces quiescent current. PNP based regulators also waste considerable current in dropout when the pass transistor saturates, and use high base‐drive currents under large loads. The RS7212 does not suffer from these problems and consumes only 15μA (Typ.) of current consumption under heavy loads as well as in dropout conditions. Enable Function EN pin starts and stops the regulator. When the EN pin is switched to the power off level, the operation of all internal circuit stops, the build‐in P‐channel MOSFET output transistor between pins VIN and VOUT is switched off, allowing current consumption to be drastically reduced. The VOUT pin enters the GND level through the internal discharge path between VOUT and GND pins. Output Voltage Selection The RS7212 output voltage is preset at an internally trimmed voltage 2.5V, 2.85V or 3.3V. The output voltage also can be mask‐optioned from 1.2V to 5.0V with 100mV increment by special order. The first two digits of part number suffix identify the output voltage (see Ordering Information). For example, the RS7212‐33 has a preset 3.3V output voltage. Current Limit The RS7212 also includes a fold back current limiter. It monitors and controls the pass transistor’s gate voltage, estimates the output current, and limits the output current within 0.5A. Thermal Overload Protection Thermal overload protection limits total power dissipation in the RS7212. When the junction temperature exceeds TJ=+150°C, a thermal sensor turns off the pass transistor, allowing the IC to cool down. The thermal sensor turns the pass transistor on again after the junction temperature cools down by 20°C, resulting in a pulsed output during continuous thermal overload conditions. Thermal overload protection is designed to protect the RS7212 in the event of fault conditions. For continuous operation, the absolute maximum operating junction temperature rating of TJ=+125°C should not be exceeded. Operating Region and Power Dissipation Maximum power dissipation of the RS7212 depends on the thermal resistance of the case and circuit board, the temperature difference between the die junction and ambient air, and the rate of airflow. The power dissipation across the devices is P = IOUT x (VIN‐VOUT). The resulting maximum power dissipation is: PMAX = DS‐RS7212‐02 September, 2009 (TJ − TA ) (TJ − TA ) = θJC + θCA θJA www.Orister.com Page No. : 5/16 Where (TJ‐TA) is the temperature difference between the RS7212 die junction and the surrounding air, θJC is the thermal resistance of the package chosen, and θCA is the thermal resistance through the printed circuit board, copper traces and other materials to the surrounding air. For better heat‐sinking, the copper area should be equally shared between the VIN, VOUT, and GND pins. The thermal resistance θJA of SOT‐25 package of RS7212 is 250°C/W. Based on a maximum operating junction temperature 125°C with an ambient of 25°C, the maximum power dissipation will be: PMAX = (TJ − TA ) (125 − 25 ) = = 0.40W 250 θJC + θCA Thermal characteristics were measured using a double sided board with 1”x2” square inches of copper area connected to the GND pin for “heat spreading”. Dropout Voltage A regulator’s minimum input‐output voltage differential, or dropout voltage, determines the lowest usable supply voltage. In battery‐powered systems, this will determine the useful end‐of‐life battery voltage. The RS7212 use a P‐ channel MOSFET pass transistor, its dropout voltage is a function of drain‐to‐source on‐resistance RDS(ON) multiplied by the load current.
