Detailed Description The MAX1598 is a low-noise, low-dropout, low-quiescent-current linear regulator designed primarily for battery-powered applications. The part is available with preset output voltages from 2.5V to 5V in 100mV increments. This device can supply loads up to 200mA. As illustrated in Figure 1, the MAX1598 consists of a 1.25V reference, error amplifier, P-channel pass transistor, and internal feedback voltage-divider. The 1.25V bandgap reference is connected to the error amplifier's inverting input. The error amplifier compares this reference with the feedback voltage and amplifies the difference. If the feedback voltage is lower than the reference voltage, the pass-transistor gate is pulled IN SHDN lower, which allows more current to pass to the output and increases the output voltage. If the feedback voltage is too high, the pass-transistor gate is pulled up, allowing less current to pass to the output. The output voltage is fed back through an internal resistor voltagedivider connected to the OUT pin. An external bypass capacitor connected to the BP pin reduces noise at the output. Additional blocks include a current limiter, reverse battery protection, thermal sensor, and shutdown logic. The MAX1598 also includes an autodischarge function, which actively discharges the output voltage to ground when the device is placed in shutdown mode.

Functional Diagram 6 _______________________________________________________________________________________ Low-Noise, Low-Dropout, 200mA Linear Regulator Internal P-Channel Pass Transistor The MAX1598 features a 1.1 typical P-channel MOSFET pass transistor. This provides several advantages over similar designs using PNP pass transistors, including longer battery life. The P-channel MOSFET requires no base drive, which reduces quiescent current considerably. PNP-based regulators waste considerable current in dropout when the pass transistor saturates. They also use high base-drive currents under large loads. The MAX1598 does not suffer these problems and consumes only 100A of quiescent current whether in dropout, lightload, or heavy-load applications (see the Typical Operating Characteristics). Current Limit The MAX1598 includes a current limiter, which monitors and controls the pass transistor's gate voltage, limiting the output current to 458mA. For design purposes, consider the current limit to be 220mA minimum to 1.1A maximum. The output can be shorted to ground indefinitely without damaging the part. Thermal-Overload Protection Thermal-overload protection limits total power dissipation in the MAX1598. When the junction temperature exceeds TJ = +155C, the thermal sensor signals the shutdown logic, turning off the pass transistor and allowing the IC to cool. The thermal sensor turns the pass transistor on again after the IC's junction temperature cools by 15C, resulting in a pulsed output during continuous thermal-overload conditions. Thermal-overload protection is designed to protect the MAX1598 in the event of fault conditions. For continual operation, do not exceed the absolute maximum junction-temperature rating of TJ = +150C. Operating Region and Power Dissipation The MAX1598 maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the case and circuit board, the temperature difference between the die junction and ambient air, and the rate of air flow. The power dissipation across the device is P = IOUT (VIN - VOUT). The maximum power dissipation is: PMAX = (TJ - TA) / (JB + BA) where TJ - TA is the temperature difference between the MAX1598 die junction and the surrounding air, JB (or JC) is the thermal resistance of the package, and BA is the thermal resistance through the PC board, copper traces, and other materials to the surrounding air. The GND pin of the MAX1598 performs the dual functions of providing an electrical connection to ground and channeling heat away. Connect the GND pin to ground using a large pad or ground plane. Reverse Battery Protection The MAX1598 has a unique protection scheme that limits the reverse supply current to 1mA when either VIN or V SHDN falls below ground. Their circuitry monitors the polarity of these two pins and disconnects the internal circuitry and parasitic diodes when the battery is reversed. This feature prevents device damage. Noise Reduction An external 0.01F bypass capacitor at BP, in conjunction with an internal 200k resistor, creates an 80Hz lowpass filter for noise reduction. The MAX1598 exhibits 30VRMS of output voltage noise with CBP = 0.01F and COUT = 10F. This is negligible in most applications. Startup time is minimized by a power-on circuit that precharges the bypass capacitor. The Typical Operating Characteristics section shows graphs of Noise vs. BP Capacitance, Noise vs. Load Current, and Output Noise Spectral Density. ____________Applications Information Capacitor Selection and Regulator Stability Under normal conditions, use a 1F capacitor on the MAX1598 input and a 2.2F to 10F capacitor on the output. Larger input capacitor values and lower ESRs provide better supply-noise rejection and line-transient response. Reduce noise and improve load-transient response, stability, and power-supply rejection by using large output capacitors. For stable operation over the full temperature range and with load currents up to 200mA, a 2.2F (min) ceramic capacitor is recommended. Note that some ceramic dielectrics exhibit large capacitance and ESR variation with temperature. With dielectrics such as Z5U and Y5V, it may be necessary to increase the capacitance by a factor of 2 or more to ensure stability at temperatures below -10C. With X7R or X5R dielectrics, 2.2F should be sufficient at all operating temperatures. A graph of the Region of Stable COUT ESR vs. Load Current is shown in the Typical Operating Characteristics. _______________________________________________________________________________________ 7 MAX1598 Output Voltage The MAX1598 is supplied with factory-set output voltages from 2.5V to 5V in 100mV increments. Except for the MAX1598EZK29 and the MAX1598EZK32 (which have an output voltage preset at 2.84V and 3.15V, respectively), the two-digit suffix allows the customer to choose the output voltage in 100mV increments. For example, the MAX1598EZK33 has a preset output voltage of 3.3V (see the Selector Guide). MAX1598 Low-Noise, Low-Dropout, 200mA Linear Regulator Use a 0.01F bypass capacitor at BP for low output voltage noise. Increasing the capacitance slightly decreases output noise but increases startup time. Values above 0.1F provide no performance advantage and are not recommended (see the Shutdown Exit Delay graphs in the Typical Operating Characteristics). PSRR and Operation from Sources Other than Batteries The MAX1598 are designed to deliver low dropout voltages and low quiescent currents in battery-powered systems. Power-supply rejection is 63dB at low frequencies and rolls off above 10kHz. See the PowerSupply Rejection Ratio Frequency graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics. When operating from sources other than batteries, improved supply-noise rejection and transient response can be achieved by increasing the values of the input and output bypass capacitors, and through passive filtering techniques. The Typical Operating Characteristics show the MAX1598's line- and load-transient responses. Load-Transient Considerations The MAX1598 load-transient response graphs (see the Typical Operating Characteristics) show two components of the output response: a DC shift from the output impedance due to the load current change, and the transient response. Typical transient for a step change in the load current from 0 to 50mA is 12mV. Increasing the output capacitor's value and decreasing the ESR attenuates the overshoot. Input-Output (Dropout) Voltage The regulator's minimum input-output voltage differential (or dropout voltage) determines the lowest usable supply voltage. In battery-powered systems, this determines the useful end-of-life battery voltage. Because the MAX1598 uses a P-channel MOSFET pass transistor, their dropout voltage is a function of drain-to-source on-resistance (RDS(ON)) multiplied by the load current (see the Typical Operating Characteristics). ___________________Chip Information TRANSISTOR COUNT: 247 SUBSTRATE CONNECTED TO GND _ Selector Guide OUTPUT VOLTAGE (xy) CODE PRESET OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) THIN SOT23 SOT TOP MARK MAX1598 THIN MAX1598EZK25-T 2.50 ADRM MAX1598EZK28-T 2.80 ADRJ MAX1598EZK29-T 2.84 ADRN MAX1598EZK30-T 3.00 ADRO MAX1598EZK32-T 3.15 ADRP MAX1598EZK33-T 3.30 ADRQ MAX1598EZK36-T 3.60 ADRR MAX1598EZK50-T 5.00 ADRS Other xy** x.y0 -- **Other xy between 2.5V and 5V are available in 100mV increments.
