Wide range of preset output voltage options are available. These ultra low dropout linear regulators respond very quickly to step changes in load, which makes them suitable for low voltage microprocessor applications. The LP3853/LP3856 are developed on a CMOS process which allows low quiescent current operation independent of output load current. This CMOS process also allows the LP3853/LP3856 to operate under extremely low dropout conditions. 1 2 Ultra Low Dropout Voltage Stable with Selected Ceramic Capacitors Low Ground Pin Current Load Regulation of 0.08% 10nA Quiescent Current in Shutdown Mode Ensured Output Current of 3A DC Available in TO-263 and TO-220 Packages Output Voltage Accuracy 1.5% Error Flag Indicates Output Status Sense Option Improves Load Regulation Overtemperature/overcurrent Protection -40C to +125C Junction Temperature Range Ground Pin Current: Typically 4mA at 3A load current.

For ensured specifications and test conditions, see Electrical Characteristics. The ensured specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions. The human body model is a 100pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5k resistor into each pin. At elevated temperatures, devices must be derated based on package thermal resistance. The devices in TO220 package must be derated at jA = 50C/W (with 0.5in2, 1oz. copper area), junction-to-ambient (with no heat sink). The devices in the TO263 surfacemount package must be derated at jA = 60C/W (with 0.5in2, 1oz. copper area), junction-to-ambient. See Application Hints. If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output must be diode-clamped to ground. The output PMOS structure contains a diode between the VIN and VOUT terminals. This diode is normally reverse biased. This diode will get forward biased if the voltage at the output terminal is forced to be higher than the voltage at the input terminal. This diode can typically withstand 200mA of DC current and 1Amp of peak current.

These capacitors must be correctly selected for proper performance. INPUT CAPACITOR: An input capacitor of at least 10F is required. Ceramic or Tantalum may be used, and capacitance may be increased without limit OUTPUT CAPACITOR: An output capacitor is required for loop stability. It must be located less than 1 cm from the device and connected directly to the output and ground pins using traces which have no other currents flowing through them (see PCB Layout section). The minimum amount of output capacitance that can be used for stable operation is 10F. For general usage across all load currents and operating conditions, the part was characterized using a 10F Tantalum input capacitor. The minimum and maximum stable ESR range for the output capacitor was then measured which kept the device stable, assuming any output capacitor whose value is greater than 10F (see Figure 28 below). 10 STABLE REGION COUT > 10PF COUT ESR (:) 1.0 0.1 .01 .001 0 1 2 3 LOAD CURRENT (A) Figure 28. ESR Curve for COUT (with 10F Tantalum Input Capacitor) It should be noted that it is possible to operate the part with an output capacitor whose ESR is below these limits, assuming that sufficient ceramic input capacitance is provided. This will allow stable operation using ceramic output capacitors (see next section). OPERATION WITH CERAMIC OUTPUT CAPACITORS LP385X voltage regulators can operate with ceramic output capacitors if the values of input and output capacitors are selected appropriately. The total ceramic output capacitance must be equal to or less than a specified maximum value in order for the regulator to remain stable over all operating conditions. This maximum amount of ceramic output capacitance is dependent upon the amount of ceramic input capacitance used as well as the load current of the application. This relationship is shown in Figure 29, which graphs the maximum stable value of ceramic output capacitance as a function of ceramic input capacitance for load currents of 1A, 2A, and 3A. For example, if the maximum load current is 1A, a 10F ceramic input capacitor will allow stable operation for values of ceramic output capacitance from 10F up to about 500F. 10 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2003-2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LP3853 LP3856 LP3853, LP3856 www.ti.com SNVS173G - FEBRUARY 2003 - REVISED APRIL 2013 CERAMIC INPUT CAPACITANCE (PF) 100 3A 2A 1A 10 10 100 1000 MAX. ALLOWABLE CERAMIC OUTPUT CAPACITANCE (PF) Figure 29. Maximum Ceramic Output Capacitance vs Ceramic Input Capacitance If the maximum load current is 2A and a 10F ceramic input capacitor is used, the regulator will be stable with ceramic output capacitor values from 10F up to about 50F. At 3A of load current, the ratio of input to output capacitance required approaches 1:1, meaning that whatever amount of ceramic output capacitance is used must also be provided at the input for stable operation. For load currents between 1A, 2A, and 3A, interpolation may be used to approximate values on the graph. When calculating the total ceramic output capacitance present in an application, it is necessary to include any ceramic bypass capacitors connected to the regulator output. SELECTING A CAPACITOR It is important to note that capacitance tolerance and variation with temperature must be taken into consideration when selecting a capacitor so that the minimum required amount of capacitance is provided over the full operating temperature range. In general, a good Tantalum capacitor will show very little capacitance variation with temperature, but a ceramic may not be as good (depending on dielectric type). Aluminum electrolytics also typically have large temperature variation of capacitance value. Equally important to consider is a capacitor's ESR change with temperature: this is not an issue with ceramics, as their ESR is extremely low. However, it is very important in Tantalum and aluminum electrolytic capacitors. Both show increasing ESR at colder temperatures, but the increase in aluminum electrolytic capacitors is so severe they may not be feasible for some applications (see Capacitor Characteristics Section). CAPACITOR CHARACTERISTICS CERAMIC: For values of capacitance in the 10 to 100 F range, ceramics are usually larger and more costly than tantalums but give superior AC performance for bypassing high frequency noise because of very low ESR (typically less than 10 m). However, some dielectric types do not have good capacitance characteristics as a function of voltage and temperature. Z5U and Y5V dielectric ceramics have capacitance that drops severely with applied voltage. A typical Z5U or Y5V capacitor can lose 60% of its rated capacitance with half of the rated voltage applied to it. The Z5U and Y5V also exhibit a severe temperature effect, losing more than 50% of nominal capacitance at high and low limits of the temperature range. X7R and X5R dielectric ceramic capacitors are strongly recommended if ceramics are used, as they typically maintain a capacitance range within 20% of nominal over full operating ratings of temperature and voltage. Of course, they are typically larger and more costly than Z5U/Y5U types for a given voltage and capacitance. TANTALUM: Solid Tantalum capacitors are typically recommended for use on the output because their ESR is very close to the ideal value required for loop compensation. Tantalums also have good temperature stability: a good quality Tantalum will typically show a capacitance value that varies less than 10-15% across the full temperature range of 125C to -40C. ESR will vary only about 2X going from the high to low temperature limits.

ALUMINUM: This capacitor type offers the most capacitance for the money. The disadvantages are that they are larger in physical size, not widely available in surface mount, and have poor AC performance (especially at higher frequencies) due to higher ESR and ESL. Compared by size, the ESR of an aluminum electrolytic is higher than either Tantalum or ceramic, and it also varies greatly with temperature. A typical aluminum electrolytic can exhibit an ESR increase of as much as 50X when going from 25C down to -40C. It should also be noted that many aluminum electrolytics only specify impedance at a frequency of 120 Hz, which indicates they have poor high frequency performance. Only aluminum electrolytics that have an impedance specified at a higher frequency (between 20 kHz and 100 kHz) should be used for the LP385X. Derating must be applied to the manufacturer's ESR specification, since it is typically only valid at room temperature. Any applications using aluminum electrolytics should be thoroughly tested at the lowest ambient operating temperature where ESR is maximum. TURN-ON CHARACTERISTICS FOR OUTPUT VOLTAGES PROGRAMMED TO 2.0V OR BELOW As Vin increases during start-up, the regulator output will track the input until Vin reaches the minimum operating voltage (typically about 2.2V). For output voltages programmed to 2.0V or below, the regulator output may momentarily exceed its programmed output voltage during start up. Outputs programmed to voltages above 2.0V are not affected by this behavior. PCB LAYOUT Good PC layout practices must be used or instability can be induced because of ground loops and voltage drops. The input and output capacitors must be directly connected to the input, output, and ground pins of the regulator using traces which do not have other currents flowing in them (Kelvin connect). The best way to do this is to lay out CIN and COUT near the device with short traces to the VIN, VOUT, and ground pins. The regulator ground pin should be connected to the external circuit ground so that the regulator and its capacitors have a "single point ground". It should be noted that stability problems have been seen in applications where "vias" to an internal ground plane were used at the ground points of the IC and the input and output capacitors. This was caused by varying ground potentials at these nodes resulting from current flowing through the ground plane. Using a single point ground technique for the regulator and it's capacitors fixed the problem. Since high current flows through the traces going into VIN and coming from VOUT, Kelvin connect the capacitor leads to these pins so there is no voltage drop in series with the input and output capacitors. RFI/EMI SUSCEPTIBILITY RFI (radio frequency interference) and EMI (electromagnetic interference) can degrade any integrated circuit's performance because of the small dimensions of the geometries inside the device. In applications where circuit sources are present which generate signals with significant high frequency energy content (> 1 MHz), care must be taken to ensure that this does not affect the IC regulator. If RFI/EMI noise is present on the input side of the regulator (such as applications where the input source comes from the output of a switching regulator), good ceramic bypass capacitors must be used at the input pin of the IC. If a load is connected to the IC output which switches at high speed (such as a clock), the high-frequency current pulses required by the load must be supplied by the capacitors on the IC output. Since the bandwidth of the regulator loop is less than 100 kHz, the control circuitry cannot respond to load changes above that frequency. This means the effective output impedance of the IC at frequencies above 100 kHz is determined only by the output capacitor(s). In applications where the load is switching at high speed, the output of the IC may need RF isolation from the load. It is recommended that some inductance be placed between the output capacitor and the load, and good RF bypass capacitors be placed directly across the load. 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2003-2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LP3853 LP3856 LP3853, LP3856 www.ti.com SNVS173G - FEBRUARY 2003 - REVISED APRIL 2013 PCB layout is also critical in high noise environments, since RFI/EMI is easily radiated directly into PC traces. Noisy circuitry should be isolated from "clean" circuits where possible, and grounded through a separate path. At MHz frequencies, ground planes begin to look inductive and RFI/EMI can cause ground bounce across the ground plane. In multi-layer PCB applications, care should be taken in layout so that noisy power and ground planes do not radiate directly into adjacent layers which carry analog power and ground. OUTPUT NOISE Noise is specified in two waysSpot Noise or Output noise density is the RMS sum of all noise sources, measured at the regulator output, at a specific frequency (measured with a 1Hz bandwidth). This type of noise is usually plotted on a curve as a function of frequency. Total output Noise or Broad-band noise is the RMS sum of spot noise over a specified bandwidth, usually several decades of frequencies. Attention should be paid to the units of measurement. Spot noise is measured in units V/Hz or nV/Hz and total output noise is measured in V(rms). The primary source of noise in low-dropout regulators is the internal reference. In CMOS regulators, noise has a low frequency component and a high frequency component, which depend strongly on the silicon area and quiescent current. Noise can be reduced in two ways: by increasing the transistor area or by increasing the current drawn by the internal reference. Increasing the area will decrease the chance of fitting the die into a smaller package. Increasing the current drawn by the internal reference increases the total supply current (ground pin current). Using an optimized trade-off of ground pin current and die size, LP3853/LP3856 achieves low noise performance and low quiescent current operation. The total output noise specification for LP3853/LP3856 is presented in the Electrical Characteristics table. The Output noise density at different frequencies is represented by a curve under typical performance characteristics. SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION The LP3853 and LP3856 are short circuit protected and in the event of a peak over-current condition, the shortcircuit control loop will rapidly drive the output PMOS pass element off. Once the power pass element shuts down, the control loop will rapidly cycle the output on and off until the average power dissipation causes the thermal shutdown circuit to respond to servo the on/off cycling to a lower frequency. Please refer to the section on thermal information for power dissipation calculations. ERROR FLAG OPERATION The LP3853/LP3856 produces a logic low signal at the Error Flag pin when the output drops out of regulation due to low input voltage, current limiting, or thermal limiting. This flag has a built in hysteresis. The timing diagram in Figure 30 shows the relationship between the ERROR flag and the output voltage. In this example, the input voltage is changed to demonstrate the functionality of the Error Flag. The internal Error flag comparator has an open drain output stage. Hence, the ERROR pin should be pulled high through a pull up resistor. Although the ERROR flag pin can sink current of 1mA, this current is energy drain from the input supply. Hence, the value of the pull up resistor should be in the range of 10k to 1M. The ERROR pin must be connected to ground if this function is not used. It should also be noted that when the shutdown pin is pulled low, the ERROR pin is forced to be invalid for reasons of saving power in shutdown mode.

Error Flag Operation SENSE PIN In applications where the regulator output is not very close to the load, LP3856 can provide better remote load regulation using the SENSE pin. Figure 31 depicts the advantage of the SENSE option. LP3853 regulates the voltage at the output pin. Hence, the voltage at the remote load will be the regulator output voltage minus the drop across the trace resistance. For example, in the case of a 3.3V output, if the trace resistance is 100m, the voltage at the remote load will be 3V with 3A of load current, ILOAD. The LP3856 regulates the voltage at the sense pin. Connecting the sense pin to the remote load will provide regulation at the remote load, as shown in Figure 31. If the sense option pin is not required, the sense pin must be connected to the VOUT pin. Figure 31.

Pin SD must be actively terminated through a 10k pull-up resistor for a proper operation. If this pin is driven from a source that actively pulls high and low (such as a CMOS rail to rail comparator), the pull-up resistor is not required. This pin must be tied to Vin if not used. The Shutdown (SD) pin threshold has no voltage hysteresis. If the Shutdown pin is actively driven, the voltage transition must rise and fall cleanly and promptly. DROPOUT VOLTAGE The dropout voltage of a regulator is defined as the minimum input-to-output differential required to stay within 2% of the nominal output voltage. For CMOS LDOs, the dropout voltage is the product of the load current and the Rds(on) of the internal MOSFET. REVERSE CURRENT PATH The internal MOSFET in LP3853 and LP3856 has an inherent parasitic diode. During normal operation, the input voltage is higher than the output voltage and the parasitic diode is reverse biased. However, if the output is pulled above the input in an application, then current flows from the output to the input as the parasitic diode gets forward biased. The output can be pulled above the input as long as the current in the parasitic diode is limited to 200mA continuous and 1A peak. POWER DISSIPATION/HEATSINKING LP3853 and LP3856 can deliver a continuous current of 3A over the full operating temperature range. A heatsink may be required depending on the maximum power dissipation and maximum ambient temperature of the application. Under all possible conditions, the junction temperature must be within the range specified under operating conditions. The total power dissipation of the device is given by: PD = (VIN-VOUT)IOUT+ (VIN)IGND where IGND is the operating ground current of the device (specified under Electrical Characteristics). The maximum allowable temperature rise (TRmax) depends on the maximum ambient temperature (TAmax) of the application, and the maximum allowable junction temperature (TJmax): TRmax = TJmax- TAmax The maximum allowable value for junction to ambient Thermal Resistance, JA, can be calculated using the formula: JA = TRmax / PD LP3853 and LP3856 are available in TO-220 and TO-263 packages. The thermal resistance depends on amount of copper area or heat sink, and on air flow. If the maximum allowable value of JA calculated above is 60 C/W for TO-220 package and 60 C/W for TO-263 package no heatsink is needed since the package can dissipate enough heat to satisfy these requirements. If the value for allowable JA falls below these limits, a heat sink is required. HEATSINKING TO-220 PACKAGE The thermal resistance of a TO220 package can be reduced by attaching it to a heat sink or a copper plane on a PC board. If a copper plane is to be used, the values of JA will be same as shown in next section for TO263 package. The heatsink to be used in the application should have a heatsink to ambient thermal resistance, HA JA - CH - JC. In this equation, CH is the thermal resistance from the case to the surface of the heat sink and JC is the thermal resistance from the junction to the surface of the case. JC is about 3C/W for a TO220 package. The value for CH depends on method of attachment, insulator, etc. CH varies between 1.5C/W to 2.5C/W. If the exact value is unknown, 2C/W can be assumed.

The tab of these packages are soldered to the copper plane for heat sinking. Figure 32 shows a curve for the JA of TO-263 package for different copper area sizes, using a typical PCB with 1 ounce copper and no solder mask over the copper area for heat sinking. Figure 32. JA vs Copper (1 Ounce) Area for TO-263 package As shown in the figure, increasing the copper area beyond 1 square inch produces very little improvement. The minimum value for JA for the TO-263 package mounted to a PCB is 32C/W. Figure 33 shows the maximum allowable power dissipation for TO-263 packages for different ambient temperatures, assuming JA is 35C/W and the maximum junction temperature is 125C. Figure 33.
