8 / 10 page Acutechnology Semiconductor Inc. AQ112 www.acutechnology.com 8 Rev. 1.6 September 13, 2006 In applications where multiple regulated supply rails are required, it is often required that the relationship between the various supply voltages be controlled during start-up and shutdown. To this end, the AQ112 allows for an analog control of the output voltage via the ENABLE pin. This allows for sequential, ratio-metric and simultaneous sequencing schemes. 4. Protection Diodes Unlike older regulators, the AQ112 family does not need any protection diodes between the adjustment pin and output or from the output to the input to prevent over-stressing the die. Internal resistors are limiting the internal current paths on the adjustment pin. Therefore, even with capacitors on the adjustment pin, no protection diode is needed to ensure device safety under short circuit conditions. External diodes between the input and output are not usually needed. Only if high value output capacitors are used (> 1000uF) and the input is instantaneously shorted to ground, can damage occur. 5. Thermal Considerations When an integrated circuit operates with an appreciable current, its junction temperature is elevated. It is important to quantify its thermal limits in order to achieve acceptable performance and reliability. This limit is determined by summing the individual parts consisting of a series of temperature rises from the semiconductor junction to the operating environment. The heat generated at the device junction flows through the die to the die attach pad, through the lead frame to the surrounding case material, to the printed circuit board, and eventually to the ambient environment. The AQ112 regulators have internal thermal shutdown to protect the device from over- heating. Under all possible operating conditions, the junction temperature of the AQ112 must be lower than 125°C. A heatsink may be required depending on the maximum power dissipation and maximum ambient temperature of the application. To determine if a heatsink is needed, the power dissipated by the regulator, PD, must be calculated: PD= (VC-VOUT) IL where the IL is the load current. The next parameter which must be calculated is the maximum allowable temperature rise, T(max): T(max)=TJ(max)-TA(max) where TJ(max) is the maximum allowable junction temperature (125°C), and TA(max) is the maximum ambient temperature which will be encountered in the application. Using the calculated values for T(max) and PD, the maximum allowable value for the junction to ambient thermal resistance (θJA) can be calculated: θJA=T(max)/ PD If the maximum allowable value for θJA is found to be greater than the junction to ambient thermal resistance for the package used, no heatsink is needed since the package alone will dissipate enough heat to satisfy these requirements. |
