Line and load regulation are measured at a constant junction Temperature by low duty cycle pulse testing. Load regulation is measured at the output lead =1/18” from the package. Note 2: Line and load regulation are guaranteed up to the maximum power dissipation of 15W. Power dissipation is determined by the difference in input and output and the output current. Guaranteed maximum power dissipation will not be available over the full input/output range. GU1085 Page: 2/4 ISSUED DATE :2005/06/01 REVISED DATE :2006/06/01C Functional Description Introduction The GU1085 adjustable or fixed-mode Low Dropout (LDO) regulator is a 3 terminal device which can easily be programmed by internal mask change to any voltage within the range of 1.25 to Vin-1.4V. The GU1085 only needs 1.4V differential between Vin and Vout to maintain output regulation, in addition, the output voltage tolerances are also extremely tight and they include the transient response as port of the specification. For example, Intel VRE specification calls for a total of ±100mV including initial tolerance, load regulation and 0 to 3A load step. The GU1085 is specifically designed to meet the fast current transient needs as well as providing an accurate initial voltage, reducing the overall system cost with the need for fewer output capacitors. Load Regulation Since the GU1085 is only a 3 terminal device, it is not possible to provide true remote sensing of the output voltage at the load. But it can supply good load regulation by internal feedback bypass the external loss such as adjustable mode. Stability The GU1085 requires the use of an output capacitor as part of the frequency compensation in order to make the regulator stable .For most applications a minimum of 10uF aluminum electrolytic capacitor insures both stability and good transient response. Thermal Design The GU1085 incorporates an internal shutdown that protects the device when the junction temperature exceeds the maximum allowable junction temperatures. Although this device can operate with junction temperatures in the range of 150 , it is recommended that the selected heat sink be chosen such that during maximum continuous load operation the junction temperature is kept below the temperature. Layout Consideration The output capacitors must be located as close to the Vout terminal of the device as possible .It is recommended to use a section of a layer of the PC board as a plane to connect the Vout pin to the output capacitors to prevent any high frequency oscillation that may result due to excessive trace inductance.
