7 / 8 page REV. 0 ADP3342 –7– THEORY OF OPERATION The new anyCAP LDO ADP3342 uses a single control loop for regulation and reference functions. The output voltage is sensed by a resistive voltage divider consisting of R1 and R2. Feedback is taken from this network by way of a series diode (D1) and a second resistor divider (R3 and R4) to the input of an amplifier.

Control Loop Functional Block Diagram A very high gain error amplifier is used to control this loop. The amplifier is constructed in such a way that at equilibrium it produces a large, temperature proportional input “offset voltage” that is repeatable and very well controlled. The temperature proportional offset voltage is combined with the complementary diode voltage to form a “virtual bandgap” voltage, implicit in the network, although it never appears explicitly in the circuit. Ultimately, this patented design makes it possible to control the loop with only one amplifier. This technique also improves the noise characteristics of the amplifier by providing more flexibility on the trade-off of noise sources that leads to a low noise design. The R1, R2 divider is chosen in the same ratio as the bandgap voltage to the output voltage. Although the R1, R2 resistor divider is loaded by the diode D1 and a second divider consisting of R3 and R4, the values can be chosen to produce a temperature stable output. This unique arrangement specifically corrects for the loading of the divider so that the error resulting from base current loading in conventional circuits is avoided. The patented amplifier controls a new and unique noninverting driver that drives the pass transistor, Q1. The use of this special noninverting driver enables the frequency compensation to include the load capacitor in a pole splitting arrangement to achieve reduced sensitivity to the value, type and ESR of the load capacitance. Most LDOs place very strict requirements on the range of ESR values for the output capacitor because they are difficult to stabilize due to the uncertainty of load capacitance and resistance. More- over, the ESR value, required to keep conventional LDOs stable, changes depending on load and temperature. These ESR limitations make designing with LDOs more difficult because of their unclear specifications and extreme variations over temperature. With the ADP3342 anyCAP LDO, this is no longer true. It can be used with virtually any good quality capacitor, with no con- straint on the minimum ESR. This innovative design allows the circuit to be stable with just a small 1 µF capacitor on the output. Additional advantages of the pole splitting scheme include superior line noise rejection and very high regulator gain which leads to excellent line and load regulation. Additional features of the circuit include current limit and thermal shutdown and noise reduction. APPLICATION INFORMATION PC Application—VCCVID The ADP3342 has been optimized for PC applications that require a 1.2 V output for powering the voltage identification rail, VCCVID. The rail from which the output draws current, the IN pin, is separated from the rail that powers the IC, the VCC pin. This allows a higher efficiency design when, as recommended for the IMVP-3 application, the VCC pin is connected to a 3.3 V supply to power the IC adequately, and the IN pin is connected to a 1.8 V supply. The efficiency is nearly 60% in this case. Capacitor Selection As with any voltage regulator, output transient response is a function of the output capacitance. The ADP3342 is stable with a wide range of capacitor values, types and ESR (anyCAP). A capacitor as low as 1 µF is all that is needed for stability; larger capacitors can be used if high output current surges are anticipated. The ADP3342 is stable with extremely low ESR capacitors (ESR ≈ 0), such as multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) or OSCON. Note that the effective capacitance of some capacitor types may fall below the minimum at cold temperature. Ensure that the capacitor provides more than 1 µF at minimum temperature. Input Bypass Capacitor An input bypass capacitor is not strictly required but is advisable in any application involving long input wires or high source impedance. Connecting a 1 µF capacitor from IN to ground reduces the circuit's sensitivity to PC board layout. If a larger value output capacitor is used, then a larger value input capacitor is also recommended. Power Good Monitoring Function The PWRGD pin does not monitor the output voltage directly, but rather detects whether the internal PNP pass transistor is being modulated by the regulation loop. This means of detecting PWRGD, rather than using a voltage threshold detection, provides an inherent and desirable delay in asserting the PWRGD signal. During startup or overload, the regulation loop is not in control, so the PWRGD pin is low. Shutdown Mode Applying a TTL high signal to the shutdown ( SD) pin or tying it to the input pin, will turn the output ON. Pulling SD down to 0.4 V or below, or tying it to ground will turn the output OFF. In shutdown mode, quiescent current is reduced. Paddle-Under-Lead Package The ADP3342 uses a patented paddle-under-lead package design to ensure the best thermal performance in an MSOP-8 footprint. This new package uses an electrically isolated die attach that allows all pins to contribute to heat conduction. This technique reduces the thermal resistance to 110 °C/W on a 4-layer board as compared to >160 °C/W for a standard MSOP-8 leadframe. Thermal Overload Protection The ADP3342 is protected against damage due to excessive power dissipation by its thermal overload protection circuit which limits the die temperature to a maximum of 165 °C. Under extreme conditions (i.e., high ambient temperature and power dissipation) where die temperature starts to rise above 165 °C, the output current is reduced until the die temperature has dropped to a safe level. The output current is restored when the die temperature is reduced. |
