Low drop fixed and adjustable positive voltage regulators

Features
■ Low dropout voltage (1 V typ.)
■ 2.85 V device performances are suitable for
SCSI-2 active termination
■ Output current up to 800 mA
DPAK
■ Fixed output voltage of: 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V,
TO-220
2.85 V, 3.0 V, 3.3 V, 5.0 V
■ Adjustable version availability (Vref = 1.25 V)
■ Internal current and thermal limit
■ Available in ± 1% (at 25 °C) and 2% in full SOT-223 SO-8
temperature range
■ Supply voltage rejection: 75 dB (typ.)
High efficiency is assured by NPN pass transistor.
Description In fact in this case, unlike than PNP one, the
quiescent current flows mostly into the load. Only
The LD1117 is a low drop voltage regulator able
a very common 10 µF minimum capacitor is
to provide up to 800 mA of output current,
needed for stability. On chip trimming allows the
available even in adjustable version (VREF = 1.25
regulator to reach a very tight output voltage
V). Concerning fixed versions, are offered the
tolerance, within ± 1% at 25°C. The adjustable
following output voltages: 1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 2.85
LD1117 is pin to pin compatible with the other
V, 3.0 V, 3.3 V and 5.0 V. The 2.85 V type is ideal
standard. Adjustable voltage regulators
for SCSI-2 lines active termination. The device is
maintaining the better performances in terms of
supplied in: SOT-223, DPAK, SO-8 and TO-220.
drop and tolerance.
The SOT-223 and DPAK surface mount packages
optimize the thermal characteristics even offering
a relevant space saving effect.

LD1117 adjustable: application note LD1117xx

7 LD1117 adjustable: application note

The LD1117 Adjustable has a thermal stabilized 1.25 ± 0.012 V reference voltage between
the OUT and ADJ pins. IADJ is 60 µA typ. (120 µA max.) and ΔIADJ is 1 µA typ. (5 µA max.).
R1 is normally fixed to 120 Ω. From Figure 10 we obtain:
VOUT = VREF + R2 (IADJ +IR1) = VREF + R2 (IADJ +VREF /R1) = VREF (1 + R2 / R1) + R2 x
IADJ.
In normal application R2 value is in the range of few kΩ, so the R2 x IADJ product could not
be considered in the VOUT calculation; then the above expression becomes:
VOUT = VREF (1 + R2 / R1).
In order to have the better load regulation it is important to realize a good Kelvin connection
of R1 and R2 resistors. In particular R1 connection must be realized very close to OUT and
ADJ pin, while R2 ground connection must be placed as near as possible to the negative
Load pin. Ripple rejection can be improved by introducing a 10 µF electrolytic capacitor
placed in parallel to the R2 resistor (see Figure 11).
