Rainbow Electronics MAX15028 - Manual

General Description
The MAX15027/MAX15028 low-dropout linear regulators
operate from input voltages as low as 1.425V and deliver
up to 1A of continuous output current with a typical
dropout voltage of only 75mV. The output voltage is
adjustable from 0.5V to V
IN
and is ±2% accurate over load
and line variations, from -40°C to +125°C. The MAX15028
features a BIAS input of 3V to 5.5V from an always-on
power supply. The BIAS input current is reduced down to
less than 2µA during shutdown.
These regulators use small, 1µF ceramic input capaci-
tors and 4.7µF ceramic output capacitors to deliver 1A
output current. High bandwidth provides excellent tran-
sient response and limits the output voltage deviation to
15mV for a 500mA load step, with only a 4.7µF ceramic
output capacitor, and the voltage deviations can be
reduced further by increasing the output capacitor.
These devices offer a logic-controlled shutdown input
to reduce input current (I
IN
) consumption down to less
than 5.5µA in standby mode. Other features include a
soft-start to reduce inrush current, short-circuit protec-
tion, and thermal-overload protection.
The MAX15028 features a BIAS input allowing a sec-
ondary supply to keep the LDO’s internal circuitry alive
if the voltage on IN goes to 0V. Both devices are fully
specified from -40°C to +125°C and are available in a
10-pin thermally enhanced TDFN package (3mm x
3mm) that includes an exposed pad for optimal power
dissipation. For a 500mA version of these LDOs, refer
to the MAX15029/MAX15030 data sheet.
