The device can supply 1.5 A of output current with a dropout voltage of 300 mV. Operating quiescent current is 1 mA, dropping to less than 1 µA in shutdown. Quiescent current is well controlled; it does not rise in dropout, as with many other regulators. In addition to fast transient response, the TPS7A45xx regulators have very low output noise, which makes them ideal for sensitive RF supply applications. Output voltage range is from 1.21 V to 20 V. The TPS7A45xx regulators are stable with output capacitors as low as 10 µF. Small ceramic capacitors can be used without the necessary addition of ESR, as is common with other regulators. Internal protection circuitry includes reverse-battery protection, current limiting, thermal limiting, and reverse-current protection. The devices are available in fixed output voltages of 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and as an adjustable device with a 1.21-V reference voltage. The TPS7A45xx regulators are available in the 5-pin TO-263 (KTT) package.

They are fully tested at TA = 25°C. Performance at –40°C and 125°C is specified by design, characterization, and correlation with statistical process controls. Typical values represent the likely parametric nominal values determined at the time of characterization. Typical values depend on the application and configuration and may vary over time. Typical values are not ensured on production material. The TPS7A4501 is tested and specified for these conditions with the ADJ pin connected to the OUT pin. For the TPS7A4501, TPS7A4515 and TPS7A4518, dropout voltages are limited by the minimum input voltage specification under some output voltage/load conditions. Operating conditions are limited by maximum junction temperature. The regulated output voltage specification does not apply for all possible combinations of input voltage and output current. When operating at maximum input voltage, the output current range must be limited. When operating at maximum output current, the input voltage range must be limited.

SLVS720A – JUNE 2008 – REVISED AUGUST 2008 DEVICE INFORMATION TERMINAL FUNCTIONS PIN NO. 1 DESCRIPTION NAME SHDN Shutdown. SHDN is used to put the TPS7A45xx regulators into a low-power shutdown state. The output is off when SHDN is pulled low. SHDN can be driven either by 5-V logic or open-collector logic with a pullup resistor. The pullup resistor is required to supply the pullup current of the open-collector gate, normally several microamperes, and SHDN current, typically 3 µA. If unused, SHDN must be connected to VIN. The device is in the low-power shutdown state if SHDN is not connected. Input. Power is supplied to the device through IN. A bypass capacitor is required on this pin if the device is more than six inches away from the main input filter capacitor. In general, the output impedance of a battery rises with frequency, so it is advisable to include a bypass capacitor in battery-powered circuits. A bypass capacitor (ceramic) in the range of 1 µF to 10 µF is sufficient. The TPS7A45xx regulators are designed to withstand reverse voltages on IN with respect to ground and on OUT. In the case of a reverse input, which can happen if a battery is plugged in backwards, the device acts as if there is a diode in series with its input. There is no reverse current flow into the regulator, and no reverse voltage appears at the load. The device protects both itself and the load. 2 IN 3 GND Ground. The exposed thermal pad is connected to GND and must be soldered to the PCB for rated thermal performance. 4 OUT Output. The output supplies power to the load. A minimum output capacitor (ceramic) of 10 µF is required to prevent oscillations. Larger output capacitors are required for applications with large transient loads to limit peak voltage transients. 5 ADJ Adjust. For the adjustable version only (TPS7A4501), this is the input to the error amplifier. ADJ is internally clamped to ±7 V. It has a bias current of 3 µA that flows into the pin. ADJ voltage is 1.21 V referenced to ground, and the output voltage range is 1.21 V to 20 V. SENSE Sense. For fixed-voltage versions (TPS7A4515, TPS7A4518, TPS7A4525, and TPS7A4533), SENSE is the input to the error amplifier. Optimum regulation is obtained at the point where SENSE is connected to the OUT pin of the regulator. In critical applications, small voltage drops are caused by the resistance (RP) of PC traces between the regulator and the load. These may be eliminated by connecting SENSE to the output at the load as shown in Figure 32. Note that the voltage drop across the external PC traces adds to the dropout voltage of the regulator. SENSE bias current is 600 µA at the rated output voltage. SENSE can be pulled below ground (as in a dual supply system in which the regulator load is returned to a negative supply) and still allow the device to start and operate. 5 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2008, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Link(s): TPS7A45xx 5 TPS7A45xx SLVS720A – JUNE 2008 – REVISED AUGUST 2008 ........................................................................................................................................................ www.ti.com TYPICAL CHARACTERISTICS DROPOUT VOLTAGE vs OUTPUT CURRENT DROPOUT VOLTAGE vs TEMPERATURE 500 480 450 IOUT = 1.5 A 400 Dropout Voltage – mV Dropout Voltage – mV 360 350 TA = 125°C 300 250 200 TA = 25°C 150 240 IOUT = 0.5 A IOUT = 100 mA 120 100 50 IOUT = 1 mA 0 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1 1.2 1.4 0 -50 1.6 25 50 75 Output Current – A Figure 1.

The devices are capable of supplying 1.5 A at a dropout voltage of 300 mV. The low operating quiescent current (1 mA) drops to less than 1 µA in shutdown. In addition to the low quiescent current, the TPS7A45xx regulators incorporate several protection features that make them ideal for use in battery-powered systems. The devices are protected against both reverse input and reverse output voltages. In battery-backup applications where the output can be held up by a backup battery when the input is pulled to ground, the TPS7A45xx acts as if it has a diode in series with its output and prevents reverse current flow. Additionally, in dual-supply applications where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output can be pulled below ground by as much as 20 V and still allow the device to start and operate.

The output voltage is set by the ratio of two external resistors as shown in Figure 33. The device maintains the voltage at the ADJ pin at 1.21 V referenced to ground. The current in R1 is then equal to (1.21 V/R1), and the current in R2 is the current in R1 plus the ADJ pin bias current. The ADJ pin bias current, 3 µA at 25°C, flows through R2 into the ADJ pin. The output voltage can be calculated using the formula shown in Figure 33. The value of R1 should be less than 4.17 kΩ to minimize errors in the output voltage caused by the ADJ pin bias current. Note that in shutdown the output is turned off, and the divider current is zero. IN VOUT OUT TPS7A4501 R2 VIN ADJ GND R1 ceramic capacitors. Ceramic capacitors are manufactured with a variety of dielectrics, each with different behavior over temperature and applied voltage. The most common dielectrics used are Z5U, Y5V, X5R and X7R. The Z5U and Y5V dielectrics are good for providing high capacitances in a small package, but exhibit strong voltage and temperature coefficients. When used with a 5-V regulator, a 10-µF Y5V capacitor can exhibit an effective value as low as 1 µF to 2 µF over the operating temperature range. The X5R and X7R dielectrics result in more stable characteristics and are more suitable for use as the output capacitor. The X7R type has better stability across temperature, while the X5R is less expensive and is available in higher values. Voltage and temperature coefficients are not the only sources of problems. Some ceramic capacitors have a piezoelectric response. A piezoelectric device generates voltage across its terminals due to mechanical stress, similar to the way a piezoelectric accelerometer or microphone works. For a ceramic capacitor the stress can be induced by vibrations in the system or thermal transients. Overload Recovery R2 + (I ADJ)(R2) VOUT = 1.21 V )1 + R1) VADJ = 1.21 V IADJ = 3 µA at 25°C Output range = 1.21 V to 20 V Figure 33. Adjustable Operation The adjustable device is tested and specified with the ADJ pin tied to the OUT pin for an output voltage of 1.21 V. Specifications for output voltages greater than 1.21 V are proportional to the ratio of the desired output voltage to 1.21 V: VOUT/1.21 V. For example, load regulation for an output current change of 1 mA to 1.5 A is –3 mV (typ) at VOUT = 1.21 V. At VOUT = 5 V, load regulation is: (5 V/1.21 V)(–3 mV) = –12.4 mV Output Capacitance and Transient Response The TPS7A45xx regulators are designed to be stable with a wide range of output capacitors. The ESR of the output capacitor affects stability, most notably with small capacitors. A minimum output capacitor of 10 µF with an ESR of 3 Ω or less is recommended to prevent oscillations. Larger values of output capacitance can decrease the peak deviations and provide improved transient response for larger load current changes. Bypass capacitors, used to decouple individual components powered by the TPS7A45xx, increase the effective output capacitor value. Like many IC power regulators, the TPS7A45xx has safe operating area protection. The safe area protection decreases the current limit as input-to-output voltage increases and keeps the power transistor inside a safe operating region for all values of input-to-output voltage. The protection is designed to provide some output current at all values of input-to-output voltage up to the device breakdown. When power is first turned on, as the input voltage rises, the output follows the input, allowing the regulator to start up into very heavy loads. During start up, as the input voltage is rising, the input-to-output voltage differential is small, allowing the regulator to supply large output currents. With a high input voltage, a problem can occur wherein removal of an output short does not allow the output voltage to recover. Other regulators also exhibit this phenomenon, so it is not unique to the TPS7A45xx. The problem occurs with a heavy output load when the input voltage is high and the output voltage is low. Common situations occur immediately after the removal of a short circuit or when the shutdown pin is pulled high after the input voltage has already been turned on. The load line for such a load may intersect the output current curve at two points. If this happens, there are two stable output operating points for the regulator. With this double intersection, the input power supply may need to be cycled down to zero and brought up again to make the output recover.

SLVS720A – JUNE 2008 – REVISED AUGUST 2008 Output Voltage Noise The TPS7A45xx regulators have been designed to provide low output voltage noise over the 10-Hz to 100-kHz bandwidth while operating at full load. Output voltage noise is typically 35 nV/√Hz over this frequency bandwidth for the TPS7A4501 (adjustable version). For higher output voltages (generated by using a resistor divider), the output voltage noise is gained up accordingly. This results in RMS noise over the 10-Hz to 100-kHz bandwidth of 14 µVRMS for the TPS7A4501, increasing to 38 µVRMS for the TPS7A4533. Higher values of output voltage noise may be measured when care is not exercised with regard to circuit layout and testing. Crosstalk from nearby traces can induce unwanted noise onto the output of the TPS7A45xx. Power-supply ripple rejection must also be considered; the TPS7A45xx regulators do not have unlimited power-supply rejection and pass a small portion of the input noise through to the output. Thermal Considerations The power handling capability of the device is limited by the maximum rated junction temperature (125°C). The power dissipated by the device is made up of two components: 1. Output current multiplied by the input/output voltage differential: IOUT(VIN – VOUT) 2. GND pin current multiplied by the input voltage: IGNDVIN. The GND pin current can be found using the GND Pin Current graphs in Typical Characteristics. Power dissipation is equal to the sum of the two components listed above. The TPS7A45xx series regulators have internal thermal limiting designed to protect the device during overload conditions. For continuous normal conditions, the maximum junction temperature rating of 125°C must not be exceeded. It is important to give careful consideration to all sources of thermal resistance from junction to ambient. Additional heat sources mounted nearby must also be considered. For surface-mount devices, heat sinking is accomplished by using the heat-spreading capabilities of the PC board and its copper traces. Copper board stiffeners and plated through-holes can also be used to spread the heat generated by power devices. Table 1 lists thermal resistance for several different board sizes and copper areas. All measurements were taken in still air on 1/16" FR-4 board with 1-oz copper. Table 1.

The power dissipated by the device is equal to: IOUT(MAX)(VIN(MAX) – VOUT) + IGND(VIN(MAX)) where, IOUT(MAX) = 500 mA VIN(MAX) = 6 V IGND at (IOUT = 500 mA, VIN = 6 V) = 10 mA So, P = 500 mA × (6 V – 3.3 V) + 10 mA × 6 V = 1.41 W Using a KTT package, the thermal resistance is in the range of 23°C/W to 33°C/W, depending on the copper area. So the junction temperature rise above ambient is approximately equal to: 1.41 W × 28°C/W = 39.5°C The maximum junction temperature is then be equal to the maximum junction-temperature rise above ambient plus the maximum ambient temperature or: TJMAX = 50°C + 39.5°C = 89.5°C Protection Features The TPS7A45xx regulators incorporate several protection features which make them ideal for use in battery-powered circuits. In addition to the normal protection features associated with monolithic regulators, such as current limiting and thermal limiting, the devices are protected against reverse input voltages, reverse output voltages and reverse voltages from output to input. Current limit protection and thermal overload protection are intended to protect the device against current overload conditions at the output of the device. For normal operation, the junction temperature should not exceed 125°C. The input of the device withstands reverse voltages of 20 V. Current flow into the device is limited to less than 1 mA (typically less than 100 µA), and no negative voltage appears at the output. The device protects both itself and the load. This provides protection against batteries that can be plugged in backward. 18 The output of the TPS7A45xx can be pulled below ground without damaging the device. If the input is left open circuit or grounded, the output can be pulled below ground by 20 V. For fixed voltage versions, the output acts like a large resistor, typically 5 kΩ or higher, limiting current flow to typically less than 600 µA. For adjustable versions, the output acts like an open circuit; no current flows out of the pin. If the input is powered by a voltage source, the output sources the short-circuit current of the device and protects itself by thermal limiting. In this case, grounding the SHDN pin turns off the device and stops the output from sourcing the short-circuit current. The ADJ pin of the adjustable device can be pulled above or below ground by as much as 7 V without damaging the device. If the input is left open circuit or grounded, the ADJ pin acts like an open circuit when pulled below ground and like a large resistor (typically 5 kΩ) in series with a diode when pulled above ground. In situations where the ADJ pin is connected to a resistor divider that would pull the ADJ pin above its 7-V clamp voltage if the output is pulled high, the ADJ pin input current must be limited to less than 5 mA. For example, a resistor divider is used to provide a regulated 1.5-V output from the 1.21-V reference when the output is forced to 20 V. The top resistor of the resistor divider must be chosen to limit the current into the ADJ pin to less than 5 mA when the ADJ pin is at 7 V. The 13-V difference between OUT and ADJ divided by the 5-mA maximum current into the ADJ pin yields a minimum top resistor value of 2.6 kΩ. In circuits where a backup battery is required, several different input/output conditions can occur. The output voltage may be held up while the input is either pulled to ground, pulled to some intermediate voltage, or is left open circuit. When the IN pin of the TPS7A45xx is forced below the OUT pin or the OUT pin is pulled above the IN pin, input current typically drops to less than 2 µA. This can happen if the input of the device is connected to a discharged (low voltage) battery and the output is held up by either a backup battery or a second regulator circuit. The state of the SHDN pin has no effect on the reverse output current when the output is pulled above the input.
