Description
The TC1301A/B combines two Low Dropout (LDO)
regulators and a microcontroller RESET function into a
single 8-pin MSOP or DFN package. Both regulator
outputs feature low dropout voltage, 104 mV
@ 300 mA for VOUT1, 150 mV @ 150 mA for VOUT2,
low quiescent current consumption, 58 µA each and a
typical regulation accuracy of 0.5%. Several fixed-
output voltage and detector voltage combinations are
available. A reference bypass pin is available to further
reduce output noise and improve the power supply
rejection ratio of both LDOs.
The TC1301A/B is stable over all line and load
conditions with a minimum of 1 µF of ceramic output
capacitance, and utilizes a unique compensation
scheme to provide fast dynamic response to sudden
line voltage and load current changes.
For the TC1301A, the microcontroller RESET function
operates independently of both VOUT1 and VOUT2. The
input to the RESET function is connected to the V DET
pin.The SHDN2 pin is used to control the output of
VOUT2 only. VOUT1 will power-up and down with VIN.
In the case of the TC1301B, the detect voltage input of
the RESET function is connected internally to VOUT1.
Both VOUT1 and VOUT2 have independent shutdown
capability.
Additional features include an overcurrent limit and
overtemperature protection that, when combined,
provide a robust design for all load fault conditions.

2: VR is defined as the higher of the two regulator nominal output voltages (VOUT1 or VOUT2).
3: TCVOUT = ((VOUTmax - VOUTmin) * 106)/(VOUT * ΔT).
4: Regulation is measured at a constant junction temperature using low duty-cycle pulse testing. Load regulation is tested
over a load range from 0.1 mA to the maximum specified output current. Changes in output voltage due to heating
effects are covered by the thermal regulation specification.
5: Thermal regulation is defined as the change in output voltage at a time t after a change in power dissipation is applied,
excluding load or line regulation effects. Specifications are for a current pulse equal to ILMAX at VIN = 6V for
t = 10 ms.
6: Dropout voltage is defined as the input-to-output voltage differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its value
measured at a 1V differential.
7: The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of ambient temperature, the maximum allowable junction
temperature and the thermal resistance from junction-to-air (i.e., TA, TJ, θJA). Exceeding the maximum allowable power
dissipation causes the device to initiate thermal shutdown.

The descriptions of the pins are listed in Table 3-1.
TABLE 3-1: TC1301A PIN FUNCTION TABLE
3.1 RESET Output Pin
The push-pull output pin is used to monitor the voltage
on the VDET pin. If the VDET voltage is less than the
threshold voltage, the RESET output will be held in the
low state. As the VDET pin rises above the threshold,
the RESET output will remain in the low state for
300 ms and then change to the high state, indicating
that the voltage on the VDET pin is above the threshold.
3.2 Regulated Output Voltage #1
(VOUT1)
Connect VOUT1 to the positive side of the VOUT1
capacitor and load. It is capable of 300 mA maximum

available; there is no pin to turn i t OFF. See TC1301B
if ON/OFF control of VOUT1 is desired.
3.3 Circuit Ground Pin (GND)
Connect GND to the negative side of the input and
output capacitor. Only the LDO internal circuitry bias
current flows out of this pin (200 µA maximum).

5.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION
5.1 Device Overview
The TC1301A/B is a combination device consisting of
one 300 mA LDO regulator with a fixed output voltage,
VOUT1 (1.5V – 3.3V), one 150 mA LDO regulator with a
fixed output voltage, VOUT2 (1.5V – 3.3V), and a
microcontroller voltage monitor/RESET (2.2V to 3.2V).
For the TC1301A, the 300 mA output (VOUT1) is always
present, independent of the level of SHDN2. The
150 mA output (VOUT2) can be turned on/off by
controlling the level of SHDN2.
For the TC1301B, VOUT1 and VOUT2 each have
independent shutdown input pins (SHDN1 and
SHDN2) to control their respective outputs. In the case
of the TC1301B, the voltage detect input of the
microcontroller RESET function is internally connected
to the VOUT1 output of the device.
5.2 LDO Output #1
LDO output #1 is rated for 300 mA of output current.
The typical dropout voltage for VOUT1 = 104 mV @
300 mA. A 1 µF (minimum) output capacitor is needed
for stability and should be located as close to the VOUT1
pin and ground as possible.
5.3 LDO Output #2
LDO output #2 is rated for 150 mA of output current.
The typical dropout voltage for VOUT2 = 150mV. AF
(minimum) capacitor is needed for stability and should
be located as close to the VOUT2 pin and ground as
possible.
5.4 RESET Output
The RESET output is used to detect whether the level
on the input of VDET (TC1301A) or VOUT1 (TC1301B) is
above or below a preset threshold. If the voltage
detected is below the preset threshold, the RESET
output is capable of sinking 1.2 mA (VRESET < 0.2V
maximum). Once the voltage being monitored is above
the preset threshold, the RESET output pin will
transition from a logic-low to a logic-high after a 300 ms
delay. The RESET output is a push-pull configuration
and will actively pull the RESET output up to VDET
when not in RES ET.
5.5 Input Capacitor
Low input source impedance is necessary for the two
LDO outputs to operate properly. When operating from
batteries or in applications with long lead length
(> 10 inches) between the input source and the LDO,
some input capacitance is recommended. A minimum
of 1.0 µF to 4.7 µF is recommended for most applica-
tions. When using large capacitors on the LDO outputs,
larger capacitance is recommended on the LDO input.
The capacitor should be placed as close to the input of
the LDO as is practical. Larger input capacitors will help
reduce the input impedance and further reduce any
high-frequency noise on the input and output of the
LDO.
5.6 Output Capacitor
A minimum output capacitance of 1 µF for each of the
TC1301A/B LDO outputs is necessary for stability.
Ceramic capacitors are recommended because of their
size, cost and environmental robustness qualities.
Electrolytic (Tantalum or Aluminum) capacitors can be
used on the LDO outputs as well. The Equivalent
Series Resistance (ESR) requirements on the
electrolytic output capacitors are between 0 and 2
ohms. The output capacitor should be located as close
to the LDO output as is practical. Ceramic materials,
X7R and X5R, have low temperature coefficients and
are well within the acceptable ESR range required. A
typical 1 uF X5R 0805 capacitor has an ESR of 50 milli-
ohms. Larger LDO output capacitors can be used with
the TC1301A/B to improve dynamic performance and
power supply ripple rejection performance. A maximum
of 10 µF is recommended. Aluminum electrolytic
capacitors are not recommended for low temperature
applications of < -25°C.
5.7 Bypass Input
The bypass pin is connected to the internal LDO
reference. By adding capacitance to this pin, the LDO
ripple rejection, input voltage transient response and
output noise performance are all increased. A typical
bypass capacitor between 470 pF to 10 nF is
recommended. Larger bypass capacitors can be used,
but results in a longe r time-perio d for the LDO outputs
to reach their rated output voltage when started from
SHDN or VIN.
5.8 GND
For the optimal noise and PSRR performance, the
GND pin of the TC1301A/B should be tied to a quiet
circuit ground. For applications that have switching or
noisy inputs, tie the GND pin to the return of the output
capacitor. Ground planes help lower inductance and
voltage spikes caused by fast transient load currents
and are recommended for applications that are
subjected to fast load transients.
5.9 SHDN1/SHDN2 Operation
The TC1301A SHDN2 pin is used to turn VOUT2 ON
and OFF. A logic-hig h level on SHDN2 will enable the
VOUT2 output, while a logic-low on the SHDN2 pin wi ll
disable the VOUT2 output. For the TC1301A, VOUT1 is
not affected by SHDN2 and will be enabled as lon g as
the input voltage is present.
The TC1301B SHDN1 and SHDN2 pins are used to
turn VOUT1 and VOUT2 ON and OFF. They operate
independent of each other.

TC1301A/B
5.10 TC1301A SHDN2 Timing
VOUT1 will rise independent of the level of SHDN2 for
the TC1301A. Figure 5-1 is used to define the wake-up
time from shutdown (tWK) and the settling time (tS). The
wake-up time is dependant upon the frequency of
operation. The faster the SHDN pin is pulsed, the
shorter the wake-up time will be.
FIGURE 5-1: TC1301A Timing.
5.11 TC1301B SHDN1 / SHDN2 Timing
For the TC1301B, the SHDN1 input pin is used to
control VOUT1. The SHDN2 input pin is used to control
VOUT2, independent of the logic input on SHDN1.
FIGURE 5-2: TC1301B Timing.
5.12 VDET and RESET Operation
The TC1301A/B integrates an independent voltage
reset monitor that can be used for low-battery input
voltage detection or a microprocessor Power-On Reset
(POR) function. The input voltage for the detector is
different for the TC1301A than it is for the TC1301B.
For the TC1301A, the input voltage to the detector is
pin 8 (VDET). For the TC1301B, the input voltage to the
detector is internally connected to the output of LDO #1
(VOUT1). The detected voltage is sensed and com-
pared to an internal threshold. When the voltage on the
VDET pin is below the threshold voltage, the RESET
output pin is low. When the voltage on the VDET pin
rises above the voltage threshold, the RESET output
will remain low for typically 300 ms (RESET time-out
period). After the RESET time-out period, the RESET
output voltage will transition from the low output state
to the high output state if the detected voltage pin
remains above the threshold voltage.
The RESET output will be driven low within 180 µs of
VDET going below the RESET voltage threshold. The
RESET output will remain valid for detected voltages
greater than 1.2V overtemperature.
5.13 TC1301A RESET Timing
Figure 5-3 shows the RESET timing waveforms for the
TC1301A. This diagram is also used to define the
RESET active time-out period (tRPU) and the VDET
RESET delay time (tRPD).

The timing waveforms for the TC1301B RESET output
are shown in Figure 5-4. Note that the RESET
threshold input for the TC1301B is VOUT1. Th e VOUT1
to RESET threshold detector connection is made
internal in the case of the TC1301B.
FIGURE 5-4: TC1301B RESET Timing.
5.15 Device Protection
5.15.1 OVERCURRENT LIMIT
In the event of a faulted output load, the maximum
current the LDO output will permit to flow is limited
internally for each of the TC1301A/B outputs. The peak
current limit for VOUT1 is typically 1.1A, while the peak
current limit for VOUT2 is typically 0.5A. During short-
circuit operation, the average current is limited to
200 mA for VOUT1 and 140 mA for VOUT2.The VDET
and RESET circuit will continue to operate in the event
of an overcurrent on either output for the TC1301A.
The voltage detect and RESET circuit will continue to
operate in the event of an overcurrent on VOUT1 (or
VOUT2) for the TC1301B. In the event of an overcurrent
on VOUT1, the RESET will detect the absence of VOUT1.
5.15.2 OVERTEMPERATURE
PROTECTION
If the internal power diss ipation within the TC1301A/B
is excessive due to a faulted load or higher-than-
specified line voltage, an internal temperature-sensi ng
element will prevent the junction temperature from
exceeding approximately 150°C. If the junction
temperature does reach 150°C, both outputs will be
disabled until the junction temperature cools to
approximately 140°C. The device will resume normal
operation. If the internal power dissipation continues to
be excessive, the device will again shut off. The VDET
and RESET circuit will continue to operate normally
during an overtemperature fault condition for both the
TC1301A and TC1301B.

6.0 APPLICATION CIRCUITS/
ISSUES
6.1 Typical Application
The TC1301A/B is used for applications that require
the integration of two LDO’s and a microcontroller
RESET.
FIGURE 6-1: Typical Application Circuit
TC1301A/B.
6.1.1 APPLICATION INPUT CONDITIONS
6.2 Power Calculations
6.2.1 POWER DISSIPATION
The internal power dissipation within the TC1301A/B is
a function of input voltage, output voltage, output
current and quiescent current. The following equation
can be used to calculate the internal power dissipation
for each LDO.
EQUATION 6-1:
In addition to the LDO pass element power dissipation,
there is power dissipation within the TC1301A/B as a
result of quiescent or ground current. The power
dissipation as a result of the ground current can be
calculated using the following equation. The VIN pin
quiescent current and the VDET pin current are both
considered. The VIN current is a result of LDO
quiescent current, while the VDET current is a result of
the voltage detector current.
EQUATION 6-2:
The total power dissipated within the TC1301A/B is the
sum of the power dissipated in both of the LDO’s and
the P(IGND) term. Because of the CMOS construction,
the typical IGND for the TC1301A/B is 116 µA.
Operating at a maximum of 4.2V results in a power
dissipation of 0.5 milliW att s. For most applications, this
is small compared to the LDO pass device power
dissipation and can be neglected.
The maximum continuous operating junction
temperature specified for the TC1301A/B is 125°C. To
estimate the internal junction temperature of the
TC1301A/B, the total internal power dissipation is
multiplied by the thermal resistance from junction to
ambient (RθJA) of the device. The thermal resistance
from junction to ambient for the 3x3 DFN8 pin package
is estimated at 41°C/W.

6.3 Typical Application
Internal power dissipation, junction temperature rise,
junction temperature, and ma ximum power dissipation
are calculated in the following example. The power
dissipation as a result of ground current is small
enough to be neglected.
6.3.1 POWER DISSIPATION EXAMPLE
Device Junctio n Temperature Rise
The internal junction temperature rise is a function of
internal power dissipation and the thermal resistance
from junction to ambient for the application. The
thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RθJA) is
derived from an EIA/JEDEC standard for measuring
thermal resistance for small surface-mount packages.
The EIA/JEDEC specification is JESD51-7, “High
Effective Thermal Conductivity Test Board for Leaded
Surface Mount Packages”. The standard describes the
test method and board specifications for measuring the
thermal resistance from junction to ambient. The actual
thermal resistance for a particular application can vary
depending on many factors such as copper area and
thickness. Refer to AN792, “A Method To Determine
How Much Power a SOT-23 Can Dissipate in Your
Application” (DS00792), for more information regarding
this subject.

7.0 TYPICAL LAYOUT TC1301A
FIGURE 7-1: MSOP8 Silk Screen Layer.
When doing the physical layout for the TC1301A/B, the
highest priority is placing the input and output
capacitors as close to the device pins as is practical.
Figure 7-1 above represents a typical placement of the
components when using SMT0805 capacitors.
FIGURE 7-2: MSOP8 Wiring Layer.
A wiring example for the TC1301A is shown. The vias
represent the connection to a ground plane that is
below the wiring layer.
