Electrical specifications do not apply when operating the device outside of its rated operating conditions. Note 2: ESD testing was performed using Human Body Model, a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 k resistor. Note 3: The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, TJ(MAX), the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, J -A, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated using: The value of J-A for the LLP (SD) and PSOP (MRA) packages are specifically dependent on PCB trace area, trace material, and the number of layers and thermal vias. If a four layer board is used with maximum vias from the IC center to the heat dissipating copper layers, values of J-A which can be obtained are approximately 60C/W for the PSOP-8 and 40C/W for the LLP-8 package. For improved thermal resistance and power dissipation for the LLP package, refer to Application Note AN-1187. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown. Note 4: If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the LP3878-ADJ output must be diode-clamped to ground. Note 5: The output PNP structure contains a diode between the VIN and VOUT terminals that is normally reverse-biased. Forcing the output above the input will turn on this diode and may induce a latch-up mode which can damage the part (see Application Hints). Note 6: Dropout voltage spec applies only if VIN is sufficient so that it does not limit regulator operation. www.national.com 4 Unless otherwise specified: VIN = 3.3V, VOUT = 1V, IL = 1 mA, CIN = 4.7 F, COUT = 10 F, VS/D = 2V, CBYP = 10 nF, TJ = 25C.

For details on thermal performance as well as mounting and soldering specifications, refer to Application Note AN-1187. EXTERNAL CAPACITORS Like any low-dropout regulator, the LP3878-ADJ requires external capacitors for regulator stability. These capacitors must be correctly selected for good performance. INPUT CAPACITOR: A capacitor whose value is at least 4.7 F (20%) is required between the LP3878-ADJ input and ground. A good quality X5R / X7R ceramic capacitor should be used. Capacitor tolerance and temperature variation must be considered when selecting a capacitor (see Capacitor Characteristics section) to assure the minimum requirement of input capacitance is met over all operating conditions. The input capacitor must be located not more than 0.5" from the input pin and returned to a clean analog ground. Any good quality ceramic or tantalum capacitor may be used, assuming the minimum input capacitance requirement is met. OUTPUT CAPACITOR: The LP3878-ADJ requires a ceramic output capacitor whose size is at least 10 F (20%). A good quality X5R / X7R ceramic capacitor should be used. Capacitance tolerance and temperature characteristics must be considered when selecting an output capacitor. The LP3878-ADJ is designed specifically to work with ceramic output capacitors, utilizing circuitry which allows the regulator to be stable across the entire range of output current with an ultra low ESR output capacitor. The output capacitor selected must meet the requirement for minimum amount of capacitance and also have an ESR (equivalent series resistance) value which is within the stable range. A curve is provided which shows the stable ESR range as a function of load current (see Figure 1). www.national.com 20120938 FIGURE 1. Stable Region For Output Capacitor ESR Important: The output capacitor must maintain its ESR within the stable region over the full operating temperature range of the application to assure stability. The output capacitor ESR forms a zero which is required to add phase lead near the loop gain crossover frequency, typically in the range of 50kHz to 200 kHz. The ESR at lower frequencies is of no importance. Some capacitor manufacturers list ESR at low frequencies only, and some give a formula for Dissipation Factor which can be used to calculate a value for a term referred to as ESR. However, since the DF formula is usually at a much lower frequency than the range listed above, it will give an unrealistically high value. If good quality X5R or X7R ceramic capacitors are used, the actual ESR in the 50 kHz to 200 kHz range will not exceed 25 milli 10 For Vout > 2.5V: CFF should be selected to set the zero frequency in the range of about 20 kHz to 100 kHz. CAPACITOR CHARACTERISTICS CERAMIC: The LP3878-ADJ was designed to work with ceramic capacitors on the output to take advantage of the benefits they offer: for capacitance values in the 10 F range, ceramics are the least expensive and also have the lowest ESR values (which makes them best for eliminating high-frequency noise). The ESR of a typical 10 F ceramic capacitor is in the range of 5 m to 10 m, which meets the ESR limits required for stability by the LP3878-ADJ. One disadvantage of ceramic capacitors is that their capacitance can vary with temperature. Many large value ceramic capacitors ( 2.2 F) are manufactured with the Z5U or Y5V temperature characteristic, which results in the capacitance dropping by more than 50% as the temperature goes from 25 C to 85C. Another significant problem with Z5U and Y5V dielectric devices is that the capacitance drops severely with applied voltage. A typical Z5U or Y5V capacitor can lose 60% of its rated capacitance with half of the rated voltage applied to it. For these reasons, X7R and X5R type ceramic capacitors must be used on the input and output of the LP3878ADJ. SHUTDOWN INPUT OPERATION The LP3878-ADJ is shut off by pulling the Shutdown input low, and turned on by pulling it high. If this feature is not to be used, the Shutdown input should be tied to VIN to keep the regulator output on at all times. To assure proper operation, the signal source used to drive the Shutdown input must be able to swing above and below the specified turn-on/turn-off voltage thresholds listed in the Electrical Characteristics section under VON/OFF. FEEDFORWARD CAPACITOR The feedforward capacitor designated CFF in the Basic Application circuit is required to increase phase margin and assure loop stability. Improved phase margin also gives better transient response to changes in load or input voltage, and faster settling time on the output voltage when transients occur. CFF forms both a pole and zero in the loop gain, the zero providing beneficial phase lead (which increases phase margin) and the pole adding undesirable phase lag (which should be minimized). The zero frequency is determined both by the value of CFF and R1: REVERSE INPUT-OUTPUT VOLTAGE The PNP power transistor used as the pass element in the LP3878-ADJ has an inherent diode connected between the regulator output and input. During normal operation (where the input voltage is higher than the output) this diode is reverse-biased. However, if the output is pulled above the input, this diode will turn ON and current will flow into the regulator output. In such cases, a parasitic SCR can latch which will allow a high current to flow into VIN (and out the ground pin), which can damage the part. In any application where the output may be pulled above the input, an external Schottky diode must be connected from VIN to VOUT (cathode on VIN, anode on VOUT), to limit the reverse voltage across the LP3878-ADJ to 0.3V (see Absolute Maximum Ratings). fz = 1 / (2 x x CFF x R1) The pole frequency resulting from CFF is determined by the value of CFF and the parallel combination of R1 and R2: fp = 1 / (2 x x CFF x (R1 // R2)) At higher output voltages where R1 is much greater than R2, the value of R2 primarily determines the value of the parallel combination of R1 // R2. This puts the pole at a much higher frequency than the zero. As the regulated output voltage is reduced (and the value of R1 decreases), the parallel effect of R2 diminishes and the two equations become equal (at which point the pole and zero cancel out). Because the pole frequency gets closer to the zero at lower output voltages, the beneficial effects of CFF are increased if the frequency range of the zero is shifted slightly higher for applications with low Vout (because then the pole adds less phase lag at the loop's crossover frequency). CFF should be selected to place the pole zero pair at a frequency where the net phase lead added to the loop at the crossover frequency is maximized. The following design guidelines were obtained from bench testing to optimize phase margin, transient response, and settling time: For Vout 2.5V: CFF should be selected to set the zero frequency in the range of about 50 kHz to 200 kHz. SETTING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE The output voltage is set using resistors R1 and R2 (see Basic Application Circuit). The formula for output voltage is: VOUT = VADJ x (1 + (R1 / R2)) R2 must be less than 5 k to ensure loop stability. To prevent voltage errors, R1 and R2 must be located near the LP3878-ADJ and connected via traces with no other currents flowing in them (Kelvin connect). The bottom of the R1/ R2 divider must be connected directly to the LP3878-ADJ ground pin. 11 www.national.com LP3878-ADJ Ohms. If these are used as output capacitors for the LP3878ADJ, the regulator stability requirements are satisfied. It is important to remember that capacitor tolerance and variation with temperature must be taken into consideration when selecting an output capacitor so that the minimum required amount of output capacitance is provided over the full operating temperature range. (See Capacitor Characteristics section). The output capacitor must be located not more than 0.5" from the output pin and returned to a clean analog ground. NOISE BYPASS CAPACITOR: The 10 nF capacitor on the Bypass pin significantly reduces noise on the regulator output and is required for loop stability. However, the capacitor is connected directly to a high-impedance circuit in the bandgap reference. Because this circuit has only a few microamperes flowing in it, any significant loading on this node will cause a change in the regulated output voltage. For this reason, DC leakage current through the noise bypass capacitor must never exceed 100 nA, and should be kept as low as possible for best output voltage accuracy. The types of capacitors best suited for the noise bypass capacitor are ceramic and film. High-quality ceramic capacitors with either NPO or COG dielectric typically have very low leakage. 10 nF polypropolene and polycarbonate film capacitors are available in small surface-mount packages and typically have extremely low leakage current.
