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. 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. The LTC1798 series is available in the SO-8 package.

Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime. Note 2: The LTC1798 is guaranteed functional over the operating temperature range of -40C to 100C. 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 5: Peak-to-peak noise is measured with a single pole highpass filter at 0.1Hz and 2-pole lowpass filter at 10Hz. 20 2 ppmP-P mA mA 100 200 l l mV mV Note 6: Temperature coefficient is the change in output voltage divided by the nominal output voltage divided by the specified temperature range. 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. 1798fc 3 LTC1798 Series TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS LTC1798-2.5* Input Current vs Temperature 8 100 TA = 25C 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 0 0.1 1 10 OUTPUT SOURCE CURRENT (mA) 4 3 2 0 1798 G02 LTC1798-2.5* Output Short-Circuit Current vs Input Voltage LTC1798-2.5* Output Short-Circuit Current vs Input Voltage 15 10 5 2 4 6 8 10 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 12 TA = 25C OUTPUT SHORTED TO GND 2 4 6 8 10 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 12 14 1798 G07 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 TEMPERATURE (C) TA = 25C VIN = VOUT(NOM) + 0.2V 3 SINKING 2 1 SOURCING 0 -1 -2 -3 0 0.1 1 10 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) LTC1798-2.5 PSRR vs Frequency 60 6 5 4 100 1798 G06 POWER SUPPLY REJECTION RATIO (dB) INPUT CURRENT (A) OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) 2.5000 12 5 -5 14 TA = 25C 2.5005 OUTPUT SHORTED TO VIN -4 7 TA = 25C 6 8 10 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 10 LTC1798-2.5* Input Current vs Input Voltage 2.5010 4 20 1798 G05 LTC1798-2.5* Output Voltage vs Input Voltage 2 30 5 1798 G04 2.4995 40 4 41 14 50 LTC1798 Series Load Regulation VOUT FROM NO LOAD (mV) 20 OUTPUT SHORTED TO GND 1798 G03 42 TA = 25C OUTPUT SHORTED TO VIN TA = 25C VIN = VOUT(NOM) + 0.2V 60 0 -50 -25 25 50 75 100 125 150 TEMPERATURE (C) 1798 G01 OUTPUT SHORT-CIRCUIT CURRENT (mA) OUTPUT SHORT-CIRCUIT CURRENT (mA) 5 0 -50 -25 100 25 0 6 1 10 0 70 VIN = 2.7V 7 INPUT CURRENT (A) DROPOUT VOLTAGE (mV) 90 LTC1798 Series Output Short-Circuit Current vs Temperature OUTPUT SHORT-CIRCUIT CURRENT (mA) LTC1798-2.5* Dropout Voltage vs Output Source Current 2 4 6 8 10 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 12 14 1798 G08 VIN = 2.7V 50 40 30 20 10 0 10 100 1k FREQUENCY (Hz) 10k 1798 G09 1798fc 4 LTC1798 Series TYPICAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS LTC1798-2.5 0.1Hz to 10Hz Noise LTC1798-5 Input Current vs Input Voltage in Dropout LTC1798-2.5 Input Current vs Input Voltage in Dropout 1400 250 TA = -55C INPUT CURRENT (A) 1200 5V/DIV 200 TA = 25C 1000 INPUT CURRENT (A) VIN = 2.7V TA = 125C 800 600 400 0 1798 G10 150 TA = 25C 100 TA = -55C 50 200 1SEC/DIV TA = 125C 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 8 9 10 1798 G11 0 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 4 4.5 5 1798 G12 PIN FUNCTIONS DNC (Pins 1, 5, 7, 8): Do Not Connect.

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 IOUT 1mA 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 IOUT 0mA VOUT 100mV/DIV 1mA 0mA VOUT 100mV/DIV 1798 F01a 10ms/DIV 1798 F01b 0.5ms/DIV Figure 1.

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. Internal P-Channel Pass Transistor 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. The LTC1798 series features an internal P-channel MOSFET pass transistor. This provides several advantages over similar designs using a PNP bipolar pass transistor. 5.2V TO 12.6V 2 0.1F IN OUT GND 4 6 5V COUT >1F DAMPING RESISTOR <1k RESISTOR VALUE () LTC1798-5 10k 1k 100 1798 F02 10 Figure 2.
