The LT®1963A series are low dropout regulators optimized for fast transient response. The devices are capable of supplying 1.5A of output current with a dropout voltage of 340mV. Operating quiescent current is 1mA, dropping to <1µA in shutdown. Quiescent current is well controlled; it does not rise in dropout as it does with many other regula-tors. In addition to fast transient response, the LT1963A regulators have very low output noise which makes them ideal for sensitive RF supply applications.Output voltage range is from 1.21V to 20V. The LT1963A regulators are stable with output capacitors as low as 10µF. Internal protection circuitry includes reverse bat-tery protection, current limiting, thermal limiting and reverse current protection. The devices are available in fixed output voltages of 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V and as an adjustable device with a 1.21V reference voltage. The LT1963A regulators are available in 5-lead TO-220, DD, 3-lead SOT-223, 8-lead SO and 16-lead TSSOP packages.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime.Note 2: Absolute maximum input to output differential voltage can not be achieved with all combinations of rated IN pin and OUT pin voltages. With the IN pin at 20V, the OUT pin may not be pulled below 0V. The total measured voltage from IN to OUT can not exceed ±20V.Note 3: The LT1963A regulators are tested and specified under pulse load conditions such that TJ ≈ TA. The LT1963AE is 100% tested at TA = 25°C. Performance at –40°C and 125°C is assured by design, characterization and correlation with statistical process controls. The LT1963AI is guaranteed over the full –40°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range. The LT1963AMP is 100% tested and guaranteed over the –55°C to 125°C operating junction temperature range.Note 4: The LT1963A (adjustable version) is tested and specified for these conditions with the ADJ pin connected to the OUT pin.Note 5: Operating conditions are limited by maximum junction temperature. The regulated output voltage specification will 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.
Note 6: To satisfy requirements for minimum input voltage, the LT1963A (adjustable version) is tested and specified for these conditions with an external resistor divider (two 4.12k resistors) for an output voltage of 2.4V. The external resistor divider will add a 300µA DC load on the output.Note 7: Dropout voltage is the minimum input to output voltage differential needed to maintain regulation at a specified output current. In dropout, the output voltage will be equal to: VIN – VDROPOUT.Note 8: GND pin current is tested with VIN = VOUT(NOMINAL) + 1V and a current source load. The GND pin current will decrease at higher input voltages.Note 9: ADJ pin bias current flows into the ADJ pin.Note 10: SHDN pin current flows into the SHDN pin.Note 11: Reverse output current is tested with the IN pin grounded and the OUT pin forced to the rated output voltage. This current flows into the OUT pin and out the GND pin.Note 12: For the LT1963A, LT1963A-1.5 and LT1963A-1.8 dropout voltage will be limited by the minimum input voltage specification under some output voltage/load conditions.Note 13: For the ST package, the input reverse leakage current increases due to the additional reverse leakage current for the SHDN pin, which is tied internally to the IN pin.

pin FuncTionsbe off when the SHDN pin is pulled low. The SHDN pin can be driven either by 5V logic or open-collector logic with a pull-up resistor. The pull-up resistor is required to supply the pull-up current of the open-collector gate, normally several microamperes, and the SHDN pin current, typically 3µA. If unused, the SHDN pin must be connected to VIN. The device will be in the low power shutdown state if the SHDN pin is not connected.
IN: Input. Power is supplied to the device through the IN pin. 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 in the range of 1µF to 10µF is sufficient. The LT1963A regulators are designed to withstand reverse voltages on the IN pin with respect to ground and the OUT pin. In the case of a reverse input, which can happen if a battery is plugged in backwards, the device will act as if there is a diode in series with its input. There will be no reverse current flow into the regulator and no reverse voltage will appear at the load. The device will protect both itself and the load.
OUT: Output. The output supplies power to the load. A minimum output capacitor of 10µF is required to prevent oscillations. Larger output capacitors will be required for applications with large transient loads to limit peak voltage transients. See the Applications Information section for more information on output capacitance and reverse output characteristics.
SENSE: Sense. For fixed voltage versions of the LT1963A (LT1963A-1.5/LT1963A-1.8/LT1963A-2.5/LT1963A-3.3), the SENSE pin is the input to the error amplifier. Optimum regulation will be obtained at the point where the SENSE pin is connected to the OUT pin of the regulator. In criti-cal 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 the SENSE pin to the output at the load as shown in Figure 1 (Kelvin Sense Connection). Note that the voltage drop across the external PC traces will add to the dropout voltage of the regulator. The SENSE pin bias current is 600µA at the nominal rated output voltage. The SENSE pin can be pulled below ground (as in a dual supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply) and still allow the device to start and operate.
ADJ: Adjust. For the adjustable LT1963A, this is the input to the error amplifier. This pin is internally clamped to ±7V. It has a bias current of 3µA which flows into the pin. The ADJ pin voltage is 1.21V referenced to ground and the output voltage range is 1.21V to 20V.

The LT1963A series are 1.5A low dropout regulators opti-mized for fast transient response. The devices are capable of supplying 1.5A at a dropout voltage of 350mV. The low operating quiescent current (1mA) drops to less than 1µA in shutdown. In addition to the low quiescent current, the LT1963A regulators incorporate several protection features which 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 LT1963A-X acts like 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 20V and still allow the device to start and operate.
Adjustable Operation
The adjustable version of the LT1963A has an output voltage range of 1.21V to 20V. The output voltage is set by the ratio of two external resistors as shown in Figure 2. The device servos the output to maintain the voltage at the ADJ pin at 1.21V referenced to ground. The current in R1 is then equal to 1.21V/R1 and the current in R2 is the current in R1 plus the ADJ pin bias current. The ADJ pin bias current, 3µA at 25°C, flows through R2 into the ADJ pin. The output voltage can be calculated using the formula in Figure 2. The value of R1 should be less than 4.17k 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 will be zero.
The adjustable device is tested and specified with the ADJ pin tied to the OUT pin for an output voltage of 1.21V. Specifications for output voltages greater than 1.21V will be proportional to the ratio of the desired output voltage to 1.21V: VOUT/1.21V. For example, load regulation for an output current change of 1mA to 1.5A is –3mV typical at VOUT = 1.21V. At VOUT = 5V, load regulation is:
(5V/1.21V)(–3mV) = –12.4mV
Output Capacitors and Stability
The LT1963A regulator is a feedback circuit. Like any feedback circuit, frequency compensation is needed to
make it stable. For the LT1963A, the frequency compensa-tion is both internal and external—the output capacitor. The size of the output capacitor, the type of the output capacitor, and the ESR of the particular output capacitor all affect the stability.
In addition to stability, the output capacitor also affects the high frequency transient response. The regulator loop has a finite band width. For high frequency transient loads, recovery from a transient is a combination of the output capacitor and the bandwidth of the regulator. The LT1963A was designed to be easy to use and accept a wide variety of output capacitors. However, the frequency compensation is affected by the output capacitor and opti-mum frequency stability may require some ESR, especially with ceramic capacitors.
For ease of use, low ESR polytantalum capacitors (POSCAP) are a good choice for both the transient response and stability of the regulator. These capacitors have intrinsic ESR that improves the stability. Ceramic capacitors have extremely low ESR, and while they are a good choice in many cases, placing a small series resistance element will sometimes achieve optimum stability and minimize ringing. In all cases, a minimum of 10µF is required while the maximum ESR allowable is 3Ω.
The place where ESR is most helpful with ceramics is low output voltage. At low output voltages, below 2.5V, some ESR helps the stability when ceramic output capaci-tors are used. Also, some ESR allows a smaller capaci-tor value to be used. When small signal ringing occurs with ceramics due to insufficient ESR, adding ESR or increasing the capacitor value improves the stability and reduces the ringing. Table 1 gives some recommended values of ESR to minimize ringing caused by fast, hard current transitions.

POSCAP capacitors are used. The output voltage is at the worst case value of 1.2V. Trace A, is with a 10µF ceramic output capacitor and shows significant ringing with a peak amplitude of 25mV. For Trace B, a 22µF/45mΩ POSCAP is added in parallel with the 10µF ceramic. The output is well damped and settles to within 10mV in less than 20µs.
For Trace C, a 100µF/35mΩ POSCAP is connected in parallel with the 10µF ceramic capacitor. In this case the peak output deviation is less than 20mV and the output settles in about 10µs. For improved transient response the value of the bulk capacitor (tantalum or aluminum electrolytic) should be greater than twice the value of the ceramic capacitor.
Tantalum and Polytantalum Capacitors
There is a variety of tantalum capacitor types available, with a wide range of ESR specifications. Older types have ESR specifications in the hundreds of mΩ to several Ohms. Some newer types of polytantalum with multi-electrodes have maximum ESR specifications as low as 5mΩ. In gen-eral the lower the ESR specification, the larger the size and the higher the price. Polytantalum capacitors have better surge capability than older types and generally lower ESR. Some types such as the Sanyo TPE and TPB series have ESR specifications in the 20mΩ to 50mΩ range, which provide near optimum transient response.
Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors
Aluminum electrolytic capacitors can also be used with the LT1963A. These capacitors can also be used in conjunction with ceramic capacitors. These tend to be the cheapest and lowest performance type of capacitors. Care must be used in selecting these capacitors as some types can have ESR which can easily exceed the 3Ω maximum value.
Ceramic Capacitors
Extra consideration must be given to the use of 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

Figures 3 through 8 show the effect of ESR on the transient response of the regulator. These scope photos show the transient response for the LT1963A at three different output voltages with various capacitors and various values of ESR. The output load conditions are the same for all traces. In all cases there is a DC load of 500mA. The load steps up to 1A at the first transition and steps back to 500mA at the second transition.
At the worst case point of 1.2VOUT with 10µF COUT (Figure 3), a minimum amount of ESR is required. While 20mΩ is enough to eliminate most of the ringing, a value closer to 50mΩ provides a more optimum response. At 2.5V output with 10µF COUT (Figure 4) the output rings at the transitions with 0Ω ESR but still settles to within 10mV in 20µs after the 0.5A load step. Once again a small value of ESR will provide a more optimum response.
At 5VOUT with 10µF COUT (Figure 5) the response is well damped with 0Ω ESR.
With a COUT of 100µF at 0Ω ESR and an output of 1.2V (Figure 6), the output rings although the amplitude is only 20mVp-p. With COUT of 100µF it takes only 5mΩ to 20mΩ of ESR to provide good damping at 1.2V output. Performance at 2.5V and 5V output with 100µF COUT shows similar characteristics to the 10µF case (see Figures 7-8). At 2.5VOUT 5mΩ to 20mΩ can improve transient response. At 5VOUT the response is well damped with 0Ω ESR.
Capacitor types with inherently higher ESR can be combined with 0mΩ ESR ceramic capacitors to achieve both good high frequency bypassing and fast settling time. Figure 9 illustrates the improvement in transient response that can be seen when a parallel combination of ceramic and

Y5V dielectrics are good for providing high capacitances in a small package, but exhibit strong voltage and temperature coefficients as shown in Figures 10 and 11. When used with a 5V regulator, a 10µF Y5V capacitor can exhibit an effective value as low as 1µF to 2µF 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 micro-phone works. For a ceramic capacitor the stress can be induced by vibrations in the system or thermal transients.
“FREE” Resistance with PC Traces
The resistance values shown in Table 2 can easily be made using a small section of PC trace in series with the output capacitor. The wide range of non-critical ESR makes it easy to use PC trace. The trace width should be sized to handle the RMS ripple current associated with the load. The output capacitor only sources or sinks current for a few microseconds during fast output current transitions. There is no DC current in the output capacitor. Worst case ripple current will occur if the output load is a high frequency (>100kHz) square wave with a high peak value and fast edges (< 1µs). Measured RMS value for this case is 0.5 times the peak-to-peak current change. Slower edges or lower frequency will significantly reduce the RMS ripple current in the capacitor.

applicaTions inForMaTiontypically 40nV/√Hz over this frequency bandwidth for the LT1963A (adjustable version). For higher output voltages (generated by using a resistor divider), the output voltage noise will be gained up accordingly. This results in RMS noise over the 10Hz to 100kHz bandwidth of 14µVRMS for the LT1963A increasing to 38µVRMS for the LT1963A-3.3.
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 LT1963A-X. Power supply ripple rejection must also be considered; the LT1963A regulators do not have unlimited power supply rejection and will 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), and
2. GND pin current multiplied by the input voltage: (IGND)(VIN).
The GND pin current can be found using the GND Pin Current curves in the Typical Performance Characteristics. Power dissipation will be equal to the sum of the two components listed above.
The LT1963A series regulators have internal thermal limiting designed to protect the device during overload conditions. For continuous normal conditions, the maxi-mum 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 ambi-ent. 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 gener-ated by power devices.
This resistor should be made using one of the inner layers of the PC board which are well defined. The resistiv-ity is determined primarily by the sheet resistance of the copper laminate with no additional plating steps. Table 2 gives some sizes for 0.75A RMS current for various copper thicknesses. More detailed information regarding resistors made from PC traces can be found in Application Note 69, Appendix A.
Overload Recovery
Like many IC power regulators, the LT1963A-X has safe op-erating 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 the 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 will not allow the output voltage to recover. Other regulators, such as the LT1085, also exhibit this phenomenon, so it is not unique to the LT1963A-X.
The problem occurs with a heavy output load when the input voltage is high and the output voltage is low. Common situations are 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 operat-ing 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.
Output Voltage Noise
The LT1963A regulators have been designed to provide low output voltage noise over the 10Hz to 100kHz band-width while operating at full load. Output voltage noise is

Calculating Junction Temperature
Example: Given an output voltage of 3.3V, an input volt-age range of 4V to 6V, an output current range of 0mA to 500mA and a maximum ambient temperature of 50°C, what will the maximum junction temperature be?
The power dissipated by the device will be equal to:
IOUT(MAX)(VIN(MAX) – VOUT) + IGND(VIN(MAX))
where,
IOUT(MAX) = 500mA VIN(MAX) = 6V IGND at (IOUT = 500mA, VIN = 6V) = 10mA So,
P = 500mA(6V – 3.3V) + 10mA(6V) = 1.41W
Using a DD package, the thermal resistance will be in the range of 23°C/W to 33°C/W depending on the copper area. So the junction temperature rise above ambient will be approximately equal to:
1.41W(28°C/W) = 39.5°C
The maximum junction temperature will 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 LT1963A 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 opera-tion, the junction temperature should not exceed 125°C.
The input of the device will withstand reverse voltages of 20V. Current flow into the device will be limited to less than 1mA (typically less than 100µA) and no negative voltage will appear at the output. The device will protect both itself and the load. This provides protection against batteries that can be plugged in backward.

applicaTions inForMaTionThe output of the LT1963A 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 20V. For fixed voltage versions, the output will act like a large resistor, typically 5k or higher, limiting current flow to typically less than 600µA. For adjustable versions, the output will act like an open circuit; no current will flow out of the pin. If the input is powered by a voltage source, the output will source the short-circuit current of the device and will protect itself by thermal limiting. In this case, grounding the SHDN pin will turn off the device and stop 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 7V without damaging the device. If the input is left open circuit or grounded, the ADJ pin will act like an open circuit when pulled below ground and like a large resistor (typically 5k) 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 7V clamp volt-age if the output is pulled high, the ADJ pin input current must be limited to less than 5mA. For example, a resistor divider is used to provide a regulated 1.5V output from the 1.21V reference when the output is forced to 20V. The top resistor of the resistor divider must be chosen to limit the current into the ADJ pin to less than 5mA when the ADJ pin is at 7V. The 13V difference between OUT and ADJ pins divided by the 5mA maximum current into the ADJ pin yields a minimum top resistor value of 2.6k. Figure 12. Reverse Output Current

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. Current flow back into the output will follow the curve shown in Figure 12.
When the IN pin of the LT1963A is forced below the OUT pin or the OUT pin is pulled above the IN pin, input cur-rent will typically drop to less than 2µA. 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 will have no effect on the reverse output current when the output is pulled above the input.
