DESCRIPTION

The MP20049 is an ultra-low noise, low-dropout,

high PSRR linear regulator. Fixed output

voltage options are available between 1.2V to

4.5V with 1% accuracy while operating from a

+2.3V to +6V input. It is designed to deliver up

to 150mA of load current. Dropout voltage is

only 60mV at full load.

The MP20049 uses an internal PMOS as the

pass element, which consumes 50µA supply

current at no load condition and is suitable for

battery-power devices. New innovative design

techniques enable the MP20049 to achieve

ultra-low output voltage noise of only 16µVRMS

without a noise bypass capacitor.

The MP20049 is designed and optimized to

work with low value, low cost ceramic

capacitors. It typically requires only 1µF of

output capacitance for stability with any load.

The MP20049 features current limit and over

temperature protection and is available in a tiny

4-ball 0.8x0.8mm WLCSP package.

Notes:

1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.

2) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the

maximum junction temperature TJ (MAX), the junction-to-

ambient thermal resistance JA, and the ambient temperature

TA. The maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at

any ambient temperature is calculated by PD (MAX) = (TJ

(MAX)-TA)/JA. Exceeding the maximum allowable powe

dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the

regulator will go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal

shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent

damage.

3) Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precaution

recommended.

4) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its

operating conditions.

5) Measured on JESD51-7, 4-layer PCB.

OPERATION

The MP20049 is an ultra low noise, low

dropout, low quiescent current and high PSRR

linear regulator for space-restricted

applications. It is intended for use in devices

that require very low voltage, and ultra-small

footprint, such as mobile phone and MP3

players.

The MP20049 uses an internal PMOS as the

pass elements and features internal thermal

shutdown and internal current limit circuits.

Dropout Voltage

Dropout voltage is the minimum input to output

differential voltage required for the regulator to

maintain an output voltage within 100mV of its

nominal value. It determines the available end-

of-life battery voltage in battery-powered

systems. For the P-channel MOSFET pass

element, the dropout voltage is a function of

drain to source on resistance. Because the P-

channel MOSFET pass element behaves as a

low-value resistor, the dropout voltage of

MP20049 is very low.

Under Voltage Lockout

The MP20049 has an internal under-voltage

lockout circuit that disables the device when the

input voltage is less than approximately 2.3V.

This ensures that the input and the output of the

MP20049 behave in a predictable manner

during input power-up.

Enable ON/Off

The MP20049 can be switched ON or OFF by a

logic input at the EN pin. A high voltage at this

pin will turn the device on. When the EN pin is

low, the regulator output is off. The EN pin

should be tied to VIN to keep the regulator

output always on if the application does not

require the shutdown feature.

Do not float the EN pin.

Current Limit and Thermal Protection

The MP20049 includes an independent current

limit structure which monitors and controls the

P-channel MOSFET’s gate voltage to limit the

guaranteed maximum output current to 150mA.

Thermal protection turns off the P-channel

MOSFET when the junction temperature

exceeds +150ºC, allowing the IC to cool. When

the IC’s junction temperature drops by 20ºC,

the PMOS will be turned on again. Thermal

protection limits total power dissipation in the

MP20049. For reliable operation, junction

temperature should be limited to 125ºC

maximum.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

Power Dissipation

The power dissipation for any package depends

on the thermal resistance of the case and circuit

board, the temperature difference between the

junction and ambient air, and the rate of airflow.

The power dissipation across the device can be

represented by the equation:

P = (VIN - VOUT) ×IOUT

The allowable power dissipation can be

calculated using the following equation:

P(MAX) = (TJunction - TAmbient) / JA

Where (TJunction - TAmbient) is the temperature

difference between the junction and the

surrounding environment, JA is the thermal

resistance from the junction to the ambient

environment. Connecting the GND pin of

MP20049 to ground with a large ground plane

will help the channel heat away.

Input Capacitor Selection

Using a capacitor whose value is >1µF on the

MP20049 input and the amount of capacitance

can be increased without limit. Larger values

will help to improve line transient response with

the drawback of increased size. Ceramic

capacitors are preferred, but tantalum

capacitors may also suffice.

Output Capacitor Selection

The MP20049 is designed specifically to work

with very low ESR ceramic output capacitor in

space-limiting and performance consideration.

Output capacitor of larger values will help to

improve load transient response and reduce

noise with the drawback of increased size. For

the application circuit, the MP20049 requires a

minimum capacitance of 0.7µF with an ESR of

1 or less.

Output Noise and PSRR

For MP20049, an internal 50pF bypass

capacitor with new innovative structure reduces

output noises greatly, without the need for an

external bypass capacitor. The power supply

rejection is 75dB at 10kHz and 55dB at 100kHz.
