LTC1798 Series Micropower Low Dropout References U DESCRIPTIO FEATURES 200mV Max Dropout at 10mA Output Current 4A Typical Quiescent Current 0.15% Max Initial Accuracy No Output Capacitor Required Output Sources 10mA, Sinks 2mA 40ppm/C Max Drift Voltage Options: 2.5V, 3V, 4.1V, 5V and Adjustable U APPLICATIO S The LTC(R)1798/LTC1798-2.5/LTC1798-3/LTC1798-4.1/ LTC1798-5 are micropower bandgap references that combine high accuracy and low drift with very low supply current and small package size. The combination of ultralow quiescent current and low dropout voltage of only 200mV (max) makes them ideal for battery-powered equipment. The output voltage is set by an external resistor divider for the adjustable LTC1798. This series of references uses curvature compensation to obtain low temperature coefficient and trimmed thin-film resistors to achieve high output accuracy. These references can source up to 10mA and sink up to 2mA, making them ideal for precision regulator applications. They are stable without an output bypass capacitor, but are also stable with capacitance up to 1F. This feature is important in critical applications where PC board space is a premium and fast settling is demanded. Battery-Powered Systems Handheld Instruments Precision Power Supplies A/D and D/A Converters The LTC1798 series references provided power dissipation advantages over shunt references. In addition to supply current, shunt references must also idle the entire load current to operate.

Note 3: If the part is stored outside of the specified operating temperature range, the output may shift due to hysteresis. Note 4: ESD (Electostatic Discharge) sensitive device. Extensive use of ESD protection devices are used internal to the LTC1798, however, high electrostatic discharge can damage or degrade the device. Use proper ESD handling precautions.

Note 7: Load regulation is measured on a pulse basis from no load to the specified load current. Output changes due to die temperature change must be taken into account separately. Note 8: Dropout voltage is (VIN - VOUT) when VOUT falls to 0.1% below its nominal value at VIN = VOUT + 0.5V. Note 9: Hysteresis in output voltage is created by package stress that differs depending on whether the IC was previously at a higher or lower temperature. Output voltage is always measured at 25C, but the IC is cycled hot or cold before successive measurements. Hysteresis is not normally a problem for operational temperature excursions where the instrument might be stored at high or low temperature.

To operate, shunt references require a resistor between the power supply and the output. This resistor must be chosen to supply the maximum current that is demanded by the circuit being regulated. When the circuit being controlled is not operating at this maximum current, the shunt reference must always sink this current, resulting in high power dissipation and short battery life. The LTC1798 series low dropout references do not require a current setting resistor and can operate with any supply voltage from (VOUT(NOMINAL) + 0.2V) to 12.6V. When the circuitry being regulated does not demand current, the LTC1798 series reduces its dissipation and battery life is extended. If the reference is not delivering load current it dissipates only 10.8W when operating on a 2.7V supply for LTC1798-2.5, yet the same connection can deliver 10mA of load current when demanded. Output Bypass Capacitor The LTC1798 series is designed to be stable with or without capacitive loads. With no capacitive load, the reference is ideal for fast settling applications, or where PC board space is at a premium. In applications with significant output loading changes, an output bypass capacitor of up to 1F can be used to improve the output transient response. Figure 1 shows the response of the reference to a 1mA to 0A load step with a 1F output capacitor. If more than 1F of output capacitance is required, a resistor in series with the capacitor is recommended to reduce the output ringing. Figure 2 illustrates the use of a damping resistor for capacitive loads greater than 1F. Figure 3 shows the resistor and capacitor values required to achieve critical damping.

This provides several advantages over similar designs using a PNP bipolar pass transistor. U PACKAGE DESCRIPTIO These references consume only 4A of quiescent current under light and heavy loads as well as in dropout; whereas, PNP-based references waste considerable amounts of current when the pass transistor is saturated. In addition, the LTC1798 series provides a lower dropout voltage (200mV max) than PNP-based references. Dimensions in inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted.
