TYPICAL APPLICATION
1
The AP1280AMP 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
2A while regulating an output voltage to within 40mV.
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 AP1280AMP 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 AP1280AMP are available in the ESOP-8
(Exposed Pad) surface mount packages.

Note4. Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature by using a 1ms(on) / 9ms(off) current pulse. Devices are tested for load regulation
in the load range from 10mA to 2A for source and -10mA to -2A for sink capability.

Input Capacitor and Layout Consideration
Consideration while designs the resistance of voltage divider
Thermal Consideration
4
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 divide
r
form the lowpass filter. There are two reasons doing this design; one is for output voltage soft-start
while another is for noise immunity.
AP1280AMP 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:
P D = (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:
P D(MAX) = ( TJ(MAX) -TA ) / Rthja
Where TJ(MAX) is the maximum operation junction temperature 125oC, TAis the ambient
temperature and the Rthja is the junction to ambient thermal resistance. The junction to ambient
thermal resistance (Rthja is layout dependent) for ESOP-8 package (Exposed Pad) is 75oC/W on
standard JEDEC 51-7 (4 layers, 2S2P) thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA=
25oC can be calculated by following formula:
P D(MAX) = (125oC - 25oC) / 75oC/W = 1.33W
The thermal resistance Rthja of ESOP-8 (Exposed Pad) 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 ESOP-8 package. We have to consider the copper couldn't
stretch infinitely and avoid the tin overflow.
Place the input bypass capacitor as close as possible to the AP1280AMP. 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 AP1280AMP and the preceding powe converter.
