Note 1 : Low duty cycle pulse testing with Kelvin connections are required in order to maintain accurate data. Note 2 : Drop-out voltage is defined as the minimum differential between Vin and Vout required to maintain regulation at Vout. It is measured when the output voltage drops 1% below its nominal value.
Note 3 : Minimum load current is defined as the minimum current required at the output in order for the output voltage to maintain regulation. Typically the resistor dividers are selected such that it automatically maintains this current.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Introduction The US1150 adjustable regulator is a 5 terminal device designed specificaly to provide extremely low dropout voltages comparable to the PNP type without the disadvantage of the extra power dissipation due to the base current associated with PNP regulators.This is done by bringinging out the control pin of the regulator that provides the base current to the power NPN and connecting it to a voltage that is grater than the voltage present at the Vin pin.This flexebility makes the US1150 ideal for applications where dual inputs are available such as a computer motherboard with an ATX style power supply that provides 5V and 3.3V to the board.One such application is the new graphic chip sets that require anywhere from 2.4V to 2.7V supply such as the Intel I740 chip set. The US1150 can easily be programmed with the addition of two external resistors to any voltages within the range of 1.25 to 5.5 V. Another major requirement of these graphic chips such as the Intel I740 is the need to switch the load current from zero to several amps in tens of nanoseconds at the processor pins ,which translates to an approximately 300 to 500 nS of current step at the regulator . In addition, the output voltage tolerances are also extremely tight and they include the transient response as part of the specification.
The US1150 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 number of output capacitors.Another feature of the device is its true remote sensing capability which allows accurate voltage setting at the load rather than at the device. Output Voltage Setting The US1150 can be programmed to any voltages in the range of 1.25V to 5.5V with the addition of R1 and R2 external resistors according to the following formula: R2 VOUT = VREF 1+ + IADJ x R2 R1 Wehre : VREF=125 V Typically . IADJ=50 uA Typically R1 & R2 as shown in figure 2

US1150
The US1150 keeps a constant 1.25V between the Vsense pin and the Vadj pin. By placing a resistor R1 across these two pins and connecting the Vsense and Vout pin together , a constant current flows through R1, adding to the Iadj current and into the R2 resistor producing a voltage equal to the (1.25/R1)*R2 + Iadj*R2 .This voltage is then added to the 1.25V to set the output voltage. This is summarized in the above equation. Since the minimum load current requirement of the US1150 is 10 mA , R1 is typically selected to be a 121 resistor so that it automatically satisfies this condition. Notice that since the Iadj is typically in the range of 50uA it only adds a small error to the output voltage and should be considered when very precise output voltage setting is required. Load Regulation Since the US1150 has separate pins for the output (Vout) and the sense (Vsense), it is ideal for providing true remote sensing of the output voltage at the load.This means that the voltage drops due to parasitic resistance such as PCB traces between the regulator and the load are compensated for using remote sensing. Figure 3 shows a typical application of the US1150 with remote sensing.

For most applications a minimum of 100uF aluminum electrolytic capacitor such as Sanyo, MVGX series ,Panasonic FA series as well as the Nichicon PL series insures both stability and good transient response. Thermal Design The US1150 incorporates an internal thermal shutdown that protects the device when the junction temperature exceeds the allowable maximum junction temperature. Although this device can operate with junction temperatures in the range of 150C ,it is recommended that the selected heat sink be chosen such that during maximum continuos load operation the junction temperature is kept below this number. The example below shows the steps in selecting the proper surface mount package. Assuming, the following conditions: Vout=2.7V Vin=3.3V Vctrl=5V Iout=2A DC Avg Calculate the maximum power dissipation using the following equation: Pd=Iout*(Vin-Vout) + (Iout/60)*(Vctrl - Vout) Pd=2*(3.3-2.7) + (2/60)*(5-2.7)=1.28 W Using table below select the proper package and the amount of copper board needed.

Figure 3 - Schematic showing connection for best load regulation Stability The US1150 requires the use of an output capacitor as part of the frequency compensation in order to make the regulator stable. Typical designs for the microprocessor applications use standard electrolytic capacitors with typical ESR in the range of 50 to 100 m and an output capacitance of 500 to 1000uF. Fortunately as the capacitance increases, the ESR decreases resulting in a fixed RC time constant. The US1150 takes advantage of this phenomena in making the overall regulator loop stable.
Note: Above table is based on the maximum junction temperature of 135C. As shown in the above table, any of the two packages will do the job. For low cost applications the SO8 package is recommended.
