Advanced Power Electronics Corp. AP1270AGN3 2.5A SINK/SOURCE BUS TERMINATION REGULATOR FEATURES DESCRIPTIOON Ideal for DDR-I, DDR-II and DDR-III VTT Applications The AP1270AGN3 is a simple, cost-effective and high-speed linear regulator designed to generate termination voltage in double data rate (DDR) memory system to comply with the JEDEC SSTL_2 and SSTL_18 or other specific interfaces such as HSTL, SCSI-2 and SCSI-3 etc. devices requirements. The regulator is capable of actively sinking or sourcing up to 2.5A while regulating an output voltage to within 26mV. The output termination voltage cab be tightly regulated to track 1/2VDDQ by two external voltage divider resistors or the desired output voltage can be pro-grammed by externally forcing the REFEN pin voltage. The AP1270AGN3 also incorporates a high-speed differential amplifier to provide ultra-fast response in line/load transient. Other features include extremely low initial offset voltage, excellent load regulation, current limiting in bi-directions and on-chip thermal shut-down protection.Built-in softstart function avoids a misoperation by inrush current. The AP1270AGN3 are available in the DFN 3x3-8L surface mount packages. Sink and Source up to 2.5Amp Integrated Power MOSFETs Generates Termination Voltage for SSTL_2, SSTL_18, HSTL, SCSI-2 and SCSI-3 Interfaces.

AP1270AGN3 APPLICATION INFORMATION Input Capacitor and Layout Consideration Place the input bypass capacitor as close as possible to the AP1270AGN3. A low ESR capacitor larger than 470uF is recommended for the input capacitor. Use short and wide traces to minimize parasitic resistance and inductance. Inappropriate layout may result in large parasitic inductance and cause undesired oscillation between AP1270AGN3 and the preceding powe converter. Consideration while designs the resistance of voltage divider Make sure the sinking current capability of pull-down NMOS if the lower resistance was chosen so that the voltage on VREFEN is below 0.15V. In addition, the capacitor and voltage divider form the lowpass filter. There are two reasons doing this design; one is for output voltage softstart while another is for noise immunity. Thermal Consideration AP1270AGN3 regulators have internal thermal limiting circuitry designed to protect the device during overload conditions.For continued operation, do not exceed maximum operation junction temperature 125oC. The power dissipation definition in device is: PD = (VIN - VOUT) x IOUT + VIN x IQ The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of surroundings airflow and temperature difference between junction to ambient. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by following formula: PD(MAX) = ( TJ(MAX) -TA ) / Rthja Where TJ(MAX) is the maximum operation junction temperature 125oC, TA is the ambient temperature and the Rthja is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. The junction to ambient thermal resistance (Rthja is layout dependent) for DFN 3x3-8L is 150oC/W on standard JEDEC 517 (4 layers, 2S2P) thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25oC can be calculated by following formula: PD(MAX) = (125oC - 25oC) / 150oC/W = 0.66W The thermal resistance Rthja of DFN 3x3-8L is determined by the package design and the PCB design. However, the package design has been decided. If possible, it's useful to increase thermal performance by the PCB design. The thermal resistance can be decreased by adding copper under the expose pad of DFN 3x3-8L package. We have to consider the copper couldn't stretch infinitely and avoid the tin overflow 4 Advanced Power Electronics Corp.
