NCP4623/D
NCP4623
150 mA, Wide Input Voltage
Range, Low Dropout
Regulator
The NCP4623 is a CMOS Linear Voltage Regulator designed for
wide input voltage range. The maximum operating input voltage is up
to 24 V with a minimum voltage starting from 2 V. The Chip Enable
(CE) pin allows the device to lower standby current to 0.1 mA typ. The
NCP4623 features many protections for any current or thermal
sensitive devices with current foldback protection, thermal shutdown
protection, and peak and short current protection. This device is
available in adjustable and fixed voltage output in 0.1 V steps. They
are available in very thin XDFN6 1.6x1.6x0.4 mm in size and the very
popular SOT235 and SOT895 packages. Please contact your local
sales office for additional output voltage options.
Features
Maximum Operating Input Voltage: 24 V
Output Voltage Range: 2.5 V to 12.0 V (available in 0.1 V steps)
2.5 V to 24.0 V (adjustable version)
Output Voltage Accuracy: ±2.0%
Supply Current: 5 mA
Stable with Ceramic Capacitors: 1 mF or more
Current Fold Back Protection
Peak and Short Current Protection
Thermal Shutdown Protection
Available in XDFN6 1.6 x 1.6 mm, SOT235, SOT895 Packages

Figure 49. Typical Application Schematics
Input Decoupling Capacitor (C1)
A 0.1 mF ceramic input decoupling capacitor should be
connected as close as possible to the input and ground pin of
the NCP4623. Higher values and lower ESR improves line
transient response.
Output Decoupling Capacitor (C2)
Recommended values of the ceramic output decoupling
capacitor is in the range from 0.1 mF to 2.2 mF. Stable
operation of the regulator should be achieved within this
range. If a tantalum capacitor is used, and its ESR is high,
loop oscillation may result. The capacitors should be
connected as close as possible to the output and ground pins.
Larger values and lower ESR improves dynamic
parameters.
Output Voltage Setting (ADJ version)
The output voltage of the adjustable regulator may be set
for any output voltage from its voltage reference (2.5 V) up
to VIN voltage by an external voltage divider connected
between VOUT and GND pins with its center connected to
the ADJ pin. The voltage divider is loaded by current into
ADJ pin that is typically around 200 nA. This current may
cause an error in VOUT, therefore it is good to choose values
of voltage divider low enough to achieve cross current
around 2 mA to eliminate error. Output voltage can be
computed from the equation:
VOUT +2.5ǒ1)R1
R2Ǔ)R1 @IADJ (eq. 1)
Enable Operation
The enable pin CE may be used for turning the regulator
on and off. The IC is switched on when a high level voltage
is applied to the CE pin. Do not leave the CE pin
unconnected or between VCEH and VCEL voltage levels as
this may leave the output voltage unstable or cause indefinite
and unexpected currents flows internally.
Current Limit
This regulator includes a foldback type current limit
circuit. This type of protection doesn’t limit output current
up to specified current capability in normal operation, but
when an over current occurs, output voltage and current
decrease until the over current condition ends. Typical
characteristics of this protection type can be observed in the
Output Voltage vs. Output Current graphs shown in the
typical characteristics section of this datasheet.
Thermal
As power across the IC increase, it might become
necessary to provide some thermal relief. The maximum
power dissipation supported by the device is dependent
upon board design and layout. Mounting pad configuration
on the PCB, the board material, and also the ambient
temperature affect the rate of temperature increase for the
part. When the device has good thermal conductivity
through the PCB the junction temperature will be relatively
low in high power dissipation applications.
The IC includes internal thermal shutdown circuit that
stops operation of regulator, if junction temperature is
higher than 150°C. After that, when junction temperature
decreases below 125°C, the operation of voltage regulator
will resume. During high power dissipation condition, the
regulator shuts down and resumes repeatedly protecting
itself from overheating.
PCB layout
Make the VIN and GND line as large as practical. If their
impedance is high, noise pickup or unstable operation may
result. Connect capacitors C1 and C2 as close as possible to
the IC, and make wiring as short as possible.
