age regulators designed to provide a high performance
solution to low power systems.

ILC7080/81 1.1
The ILC7080/81 LDO design is based on an advanced cir-
cuit configuration for which patent protection has been
applied. Typically it is very difficult to drive a capacitive out-
put with an amplifier. The output capacitance produces a
pole in the feedback path, which upsets the carefully tai-
lored dominant pole of the internal amplifier. Traditionally
the pole of the output capacitor has been “eliminated” by
reducing the output impedance of the regulator such that
the pole of the output capacitor is moved well beyond the
gain bandwidth product of the regulator. In practice, this is
difficult to do and still maintain high frequency operation.
Typically the output impedance of the regulator is not sim-
ply resistive, such that the reactive output impedance inter-
acts with the reactive impedance of the load resistance and
capacitance. In addition, it is necessary to place the domi-
nant pole of the circuit at a sufficiently low frequency such
that the gain of the regulator has fallen below unity before
any of the complex interactions between the output and the
load occur. The ILC7080/81 does not try to eliminate the
output pole, but incorporates it into the stability scheme.
The load and output capacitor forms a pole, which rolls off
the gain of the regulator below unity. In order to do this the
output impedance of the regulator must be high, looking like
a current source. The output stage of the regulator
becomes a transconductance amplifier, which converts a
voltage to a current with a substantial output impedance.
The circuit which drives the transconductance amplifier is
the error amplifier, which compares the regulator output to
the band gap reference and produces an error voltage as
the input to the transconductance amplifier . The error ampli-
fier has a dominant pole at low frequency and a “zero”
which cancels out the effects of the pole. The zero allows
the regulator to have gain out to the frequency where the
output pole continues to reduce the gain to unity. The con-
figuration of the poles and zero are shown in figure 1.
Instead of powering the critical circuits from the unregulat-
ed input voltage, the CMOS RF LDO powers the internal
circuits such as the bandgap, the error amplifier and most
of the transconductance amplifier from the boot strapped
regulated output voltage of the regulator. This technique
offers extremely high ripple rejection and excellent line tran-
sient response.
A block diagram of the regulator circuit used in the
ILC7080/81 is shown in figure 2, which shows the input-to-
output isolation and the cascaded sequence of amplifiers
that implement the pole-zero scheme outlined above.
The ILC7080/81 were designed in a CMOS process with
some minor additions, which allow the circuit to be used at
input voltages up to 13V. The resulting circuit exceeds the
frequency response of traditional bipolar circuits. The
ILC7080/81 is very tolerant of output load conditions with
the inclusion of both short circuit and thermal overload pro-
tection. The device has a very low dropout voltage, typical-
ly a linear response of 1mV per milliamp of load current,
and none of the quasi-saturation characteristics of a bipolar
output device. All the good features of the frequency
response and regulation are valid right to the point where
the regulator goes out of regulation in a 4mV transition
region. Because there is no base drive, the regulator is
capable of providing high current surges while remaining in
regulation. This is shown in the high peak current of 500mA
which allows for the ILC7080/81 to be used in systems that
require short burst mode operation.

Shutdown (ON/OFF) Operation
The ILC7080/81 output can be turned off by applying 0.4V
or less to the device’s ON/OFF pin (pin 3). In shutdown
mode, the ILC7080/81 draws less than 1mA quiescent cur-
rent. The output of the ILC7081 is enabled by applying 2V
to 13V at the ON/OFF pin. In applications where the
ILC7080/81 output will always remain enabled, the ON/OFF
pin may be connected to VIN (pin 1). The ILC7080/81’s
shutdown circuitry includes hysteresis, as such the device
will operate properly even if a slow moving signal is applied
to the ON/OFF pin. The device’s shutdown pin includes a
2Minternal pull down resistor connected to ground.
Short Circuit Protection
The ILC7080/81 output can withstand momentary short cir-
cuit to ground. Moreover, the regulator can deliver very high
output peak current due to its 1A instantaneous short circuit
current capability.
Thermal Protection
The ILC7080/81 also includes a thermal protection circuit
which shuts down the regulator when die temperature
exceeds 170°C due to overheating. In thermal shutdown,
once the die temperature cools to below 160°C, the regula-
tor is enabled. If the die temperature is excessive due to
high package power dissipation, the regulator’s thermal cir-
cuit will continue to pulse the regulator on and off. This is
called thermal cycling.
Excessively high die temperature may occur due to high dif-
ferential voltage across the regulator or high load current or
high ambient temperature or a combination of all three.
Thermal protection protects the regulator from such fault
conditions and is a necessary requirement in today’s
designs. In normal operation, the die temperature should be
limited to under 150°C.
Adjustable Output Voltage
Figure 3 shows how an adjustable output voltage can be
easily achieved using ILC7080/81-ADJ. The output voltage,
VOUT is given by the following equation:
VOUT = 1.24V x (R1/R2 + 1)
For best results, a resistor value of 470kor less may be
used for R2. The output voltage can be programmed from
2.5V to 12V.
Note: An external capacitor should not be connected to the
adjustable feedback pin (pin 4). Connecting an external capacitor
to pin 4 may cause regulator instability and lead to oscillations.

ILC7080/81 1.1
Maximum Output Current
The maximum output current available from the ILC7080/81
is limited by the maximum package power dissipation as
well as the device’s internal current limit. For a given ambi-
ent temperature, TA, the maximum package power dissipa-
tion is given by:PD(max) = (TJ(max) - TA) / θJA
where TJ(max) = 150°C is the maximum junction temperature
and θJA = 333°C/W is the package thermal resistance. For
example at TA = 85°C ambient temperature, the maximum
package power dissipation is;
PD(max) = 195mW.
The maximum output current can be calculated from the fol-
lowing equation:
IOUT(max) < PD(max) / (VIN - VOUT)
For example at VIN = 6V, VOUT = 5V and TA= 85°C, the
maximum output current is IOUT(max) < 195mA. At higher
output current, the die temperature will rise and cause the
thermal protection circuit to be enabled.
APPLICATION HINTS
Figure 4 shows the typical application circuit for the
ILC7080/81.
Input Capacitor
An input capacitor CIN of value 1mF or larger should be con-
nected from VIN to the main ground plane. This will help to
filter supply noise from entering the LDO. The input capac-
itor should be connected as close to the LDO regulator
input pin as is practical. Using a high-value input capacitor
will offer superior line transient response as well as better
power supply ripple rejection. A ceramic or tantalum capac-
itor may be used at the input of the LDO regulator.
Note that there is a parasitic diode from the LDO regulator
output to the input. If the input voltage swings below the
regulator’s output voltage by a couple of hundred milivolts
then the regulator may be damaged. This condition must be
avoided. In many applications a large value input capacitor,
CIN, will hold VIN higher than VOUT and decay slower than
VOUT when the LDO is powered off.
Output Capacitor Selection
Impala strongly recommends the use of low ESR (equiva-
lent series resistance) ceramic capacitors for COUT and
CNOISE. The ILC7080/81 is stable with low ESR capacitor
(as low as zero ). The value of the output capacitor should
be 1µF or higher. Either ceramic chip or a tantalum capaci-
tor may be used at the output.
Use of ceramic chip capacitors offer significant advantages
over tantalum capacitors. A ceramic capacitor is typically
considerably cheaper than a tantalum capacitor, it usually
has a smaller footprint, lower height, and lighter weight than
a tantalum capacitor. Furthermore, unlike tantalum capaci-
tors which are polarized and can be damaged if connected
incorrectly, ceramic capacitors are non-polarized. Low
value ceramic chip capacitors with X7R dielectric are avail-
able in the 100pF to 4.7µF range, while high value capaci-
tors with Y5V dielectric are available in the 2200pF to 22µF
range. Evaluate carefully before using capacitors with Y5V
dielectric because their ESR increases significantly at cold
temperatures. Figure 10 shows a list of recommended
ceramic capacitors for use at the output of ILC7080/81.
Note: If a tantalum output capacitor is used then for stable opera-
tion Impala recommends a low ESR tantalum capacitor with max-
imum rated ESR at or below 0.4. Low ESR tantalum capacitors,
such as the TPS series from AVX Corporation (www .avxcorp.com)
or the T495 series from Kemet (www.kemet.com) may be used.
In applications where a high output surge current can be
expected, use a high value but low ESR output capacitor for
superior load transient response. The ILC7080/81 is stable
with no load.
Noise Bypass Capacitor
In low noise applications, the self noise of the ILC7080/81
can be decreased further by connecting a capacitor from
the noise bypass pin (pin 4) to ground (pin 2). The noise
bypass pin is a high impedance node as such, care should
be taken in printed circuit board layout to avoid noise pick-
up from external sources. Moreover, the noise bypass
capacitor should have low leakage.
Noise bypass capacitors with a value as low as 470pF
may be used. However, for optimum performance, use a
0.01µF or larger, ceramic chip capacitor . Note that the turn
on and turn off response of the ILC7080/81 is inversely
proportional to the value of the noise bypass capacitor.
For fast turn on and turn off, use a small value noise
bypass capacitor. In applications were exceptionally low
output noise is not required, consider omitting the noise
bypass capacitor altogether.

ILC7080/81 1.1
The Effects of ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance)
The ESR of a capacitor is a measure of the resistance due
to the leads and the internal connections of the component.
Typically measured in m(milli-ohms) it can increase to
ohms in some cases.
Wherever there is a combination of resistance and current,
voltages will be present. The control functions of LDOs use
two voltages in order to maintain the output precisely; VOUT
and VREF.
With reference to the block diagram in figure 2, VOUT is fed
back to the error amplifier and is used as the supply volt-
age for the internal components of the 7080/81. So any
change in VOUT will cause the error amplifier to try to com-
pensate to maintain VOUT at the set level and noise on
VOUT will be reflected into the supply of each internal cir-
cuit. The reference voltage, VREF, is influenced by the
CNOISE pin. Noise into this pin will add to the reference volt-
age and be fed through the circuit. These factors will not
cause a problem if some simple steps are taken. Figure 5
shows where these added ESR resistances are present in
the typical LDO circuit.
With this in mind low ESR components will offer better per-
formance as LDOs may be exposed to large transients of
output voltage, and current flows through the capacitors in
order to filter these transient swings. ESR is less of a prob-
lem with CIN as the voltage fluctuations at the input will be
filtered by the LDO.
However, being aware of these current flows, there is also
another potential source of induced voltage noise from the
resistance inherent in the PCB trace. Figure 6 shows where
the additive resistance of the PCB can manifest itself. Again
these resistances may be very small, but a summation of
several currents can develop detectable voltage ripple and
will be amplified by the LDO. Particularly the accumulation
of current flows in the ground plane can develop significant
voltages unless care is taken.
With a degree of care, the ILC7080/81 will yield outstanding
performance.
Printed Circuit Board Layout Guidelines
As was mentioned in the previous section, to take full
advantage of any high performance LDO regulator requires
paying careful attention to grounding and printed circuit
board (PCB) layout.
Figure 7 shows the effects of poor grounding and PCB lay-
out caused by the ESR and PCB resistances and the accu-
mulation of current flows.
Note particularly that during high output load current, the
LDO regulator ’s ground pin and the ground return for COUT
and CNOISE are not at the same potential as the system
ground. This is due to high frequency impedance caused by
PCB’s trace inductance and DC resistance. The current
loop between COUT, CNOISE and the LDO regulator’s ground
pin will degrade performance of the LDO.
Figure 8 shows an optimum schematic. In this schematic,
high output surge current has little effect on the ground cur-
rent and noise bypass current return of the LDO regulator.
Note that the key difference here is that COUT and CNOISE
are directly connected to the LDO regulator’s ground pin.
The LDO is then separately connected to the main ground
plane and returned to a single point system ground.
The layout of the LDO and its external components are also
based on some simple rules to minimize EMI and output
voltage ripple.

Connect CIN between VIN of the ILC7080/81 and the
“GROUND PLANE”.
Keep the ground side of COUT and CNOISE connected to
the “LOCAL GROUND” and not directly to the
“GROUND PLANE”.
On multilayer boards use component side copper for
grounding around the ILC7080/81 and connect back to a
“GROUND PLANE” using vias.
If using a DC-DC converter in your design, use a star
grounding system with separate traces for the power
ground and the control signals. The star should radiate
from where the power supply enters the PCB.
Place all RF LDO related components; ILC7080/81,
input capacitor CIN, noise bypass capacitor CNOISE and
output capacitor COUT as close together as possible.
Keep the output capacitor COUT as close to the
ILC7080/81 as possible with very short traces to the
VOUT and GND pins.
The traces for the related components; ILC7080/81,
input capacitor CIN, noise bypass capacitor CNOISE and
output capacitor COUT can be run with minimum trace
widths close to the LDO.
Maintain a separate “LOCAL GROUND” remote from
the “GROUND PLANE” to ensure a quiet ground near
the LDO.
