11 / 28 page  LT3083 11 3083f APPLICATIONS INFORMATION The LT3083 regulator is easy to use and has all the protection features expected in high performance regulators. Included are short-circuit protection and safe operating area protec- tion, as well as thermal shutdown with hysteresis. The LT3083 fits well in applications needing multiple rails. This new architecture adjusts down to zero with a single resistor, handling modern low voltage digital IC’s as well as allowing easy parallel operation and thermal management without heat sinks. Adjusting to zero output allows shutting off the powered circuitry. When the input is pre-regulated, such as with a 5V or 3.3V input supply, external resistors can help spread the heat. A precision “0” TC 50μA reference current source connects to the noninverting input of a power operational amplifier. The power operational amplifier provides a low impedance buffered output to the voltage on the noninverting input. A single resistor from the noninverting input to ground sets the output voltage. If this resistor is set to 0Ω, zero output voltage results. Therefore, any output voltage can be obtained between zero and the maximum defined by the input power supply. The benefit of using a true internal current source as the reference, as opposed to a bootstrapped reference in older regulators, is not so obvious in this architecture. A true reference current source allows the regulator to have gain and frequency response independent of the impedance on the positive input. On older adjustable regulators, such as the LT1086, loop gain changes with output voltage and bandwidth changes if the adjustment pin is bypassed to ground. For the LT3083, the loop gain is unchanged with output voltage changes or bypassing. Output regulation is not a fixed percentage of output voltage, but is a fixed fraction of millivolts. Use of a true current source allows all of the gain in the buffer amplifier to provide regulation, and none of that gain is needed to amplify up the reference to a higher output voltage. The LT3083 has the collector of the output transistor con- nected to a separate pin from the control input. Since the dropout on the collector (IN pin) is typically only 310mV, two supplies can be used to power the LT3083 to reduce dissipation: a higher voltage supply for the control circuitry and a lower voltage supply for the collector. This increases efficiency and reduces dissipation. To further spread the heat, a resistor inserted in series with the collector moves some of the heat out of the IC to spread it on the PC board (see the section Reducing Power Dissipation). The LT3083 can be operated in two modes. Three termi- nal mode has the VCONTROL pin connected to the IN pin and gives a limitation of 1.25V dropout. Alternatively, the VCONTROL pin is separately tied to a higher voltage and the IN pin to a lower voltage giving 310mV dropout on the IN pin, minimizing total power dissipation. This allows for a 3A supply regulating from 2.5VIN to 1.8VOUT or 1.8VIN to 1.2VOUT with low power dissipation. Programming Output Voltage The LT3083 sources a 50μA reference current that flows out of the SET pin. Connecting a resistor from SET to ground generates a voltage that becomes the reference point for the error amplifier (see Figure 1). The refer- ence voltage equals 50μA multiplied by the value of the SET pin resistor. Any voltage can be generated and there is no minimum output voltage for the regulator. Figure 1.
