GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are low dropout (LDO) CMOS linear
regulators that operate from 1.6 V to 3.6 V and provide up to 2 A
of output current. These low VIN/VOUT LDOs are ideal for regu-
lation of nanometer FPGA geometries operating from 2.5 V down
to 1.8 V I/O rails, and for powering core voltages down to 0.75 V.
Using an advanced, proprietary architecture, the ADP1740/
ADP1741 provide high power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) and
low noise, and achieve excellent line and load transient response
with only a small 4.7 µF ceramic output capacitor.
The ADP1740 is available in seven fixed output voltage options.
The ADP1741 is an adjustable version that allows output
voltages ranging from 0.75 V to 3.3 V via an external divider.
The ADP1740/ADP1741 allow an external soft start capacitor
to be connected to program the startup. A digital power-good
output allows power system monitors to check the health of the
output voltage.
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are available in a 16-lead, 4 mm ×
4 mm LFCSP, making them not only very compact solutions,
but also providing excellent thermal performance for applica-
tions that require up to 2 A of output current in a small, low
profile footprint.

4 Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output voltage differential when the input voltage is set to the nominal output voltage. This applies only to output voltages
above 1.6 V.
5 Start-up time is defined as the time between the rising edge of EN to VOUT being at 95% of its nominal value.
6 Current-limit threshold is defined as the current at which the output voltage drops to 90% of the specified typical value. For example, the current limit for a 1.0 V
output voltage is defined as the current that causes the output voltage to drop to 90% of 1.0 V, or 0.9 V.

Stresses at or above those listed under Absolute Maximum
Ratings may cause permanent damage to the product. This is a
stress rating only; functional operation of the product at these
or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Operation beyond
the maximum operating conditions for extended periods may
affect product reliability.
THERMAL DATA
Absolute maximum ratings apply only individually, not in
combination. The ADP1740/ADP1741 may be damaged when
junction temperature limits are exceeded. Monitoring ambient
temperature does not guarantee that the junction temperature is
within the specified temperature limits. In applications with
high power dissipation and poor PCB thermal resistance, the
maximum ambient temperature may need to be derated. In
applications with moderate power dissipation and low PCB
thermal resistance, the maximum ambient temperature can
exceed the maximum limit as long as the junction temperature
is within specification limits.
The junction temperature (TJ) of the device is dependent on the
ambient temperature (TA), the power dissipation of the device
(PD), and the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the
package (θJA). TJ is calculated using the following formula:
TJ = TA + (PD × θJA)
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistanceJA) of the package
is based on modeling and calculation using a 4-layer board. The
junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is highly dependent on
the application and board layout. In applications where high
maximum power dissipation exists, close attention to thermal
board design is required. The value of θJA may vary, depending
on PCB material, layout, and environmental conditions. The
specified values of θJA are based on a 4-layer, 4 in × 3 in circuit
board. Refer to JEDEC JESD51-7 for detailed information about
board construction. For more information, see the AN-772
Application Note, A Design and Manufacturing Guide for the
Lead Frame Chip Scale Package (LFCSP), at www.analog.com.
ΨJB is the junction-to-board thermal characterization parameter
with units of °C/W. ΨJB of the package is based on modeling and
calculation using a 4-layer board. The JEDEC JESD51-12
document, Guidelines for Reporting and Using Electronic Package
Thermal Information, states that thermal characterization
parameters are not the same as thermal resistances. ΨJB measures
the component power flowing through multiple thermal paths
rather than through a single path, as in thermal resistanceJB).
Therefore, ΨJB thermal paths include convection from the top of
the package, as well as radiation from the package, factors that
make ΨJB more useful in real-world applications. Maximum
junction temperature (TJ) is calculated from the board temper-
ature (TB) and the power dissipation (PD) using the following
formula:
TJ = TB + (PD × ΨJB)
Refer to the JEDEC JESD51-8 and JESD51-12 documents for
more detailed information about ΨJB.
THERMAL RESISTANCE
θJA and ΨJB are specified for the worst-case conditions, that is, a
device soldered in a circuit board for surface-mount packages.

automatic startup, connect EN to VIN.
5 5 PG
Power-Good Output. This open-drain output requires an external pull-up resistor to VIN. If
the part is in shutdown mode, current-limit mode, or thermal shutdown, or if it falls below
90% of the nominal output voltage, the PG pin immediately transitions low.
6 6 GND Ground.
7 7 SS Soft Start Pin. A capacitor connected to this pin determines the soft start time.
8 8 NC Not Connected. No internal connection.
9 SENSE
Sense Input. This pin measures the actual output voltage at the load and feeds it to the error
amplifier. Connect the SENSE pin as close to the load as possible to minimize the effect of IR
drop between the regulator output and the load.
9 ADJ Adjust Pin. A resistor divider from VOUT to ADJ sets the output voltage.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are low dropout linear regulators
that use an advanced, proprietary architecture to provide high
power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) and excellent line and load
transient response with only a small 4.7 µF ceramic output capac-
itor. Both devices operate from a 1.6 V to 3.6 V input rail and
provide up to 2 A of output current. Supply current in shutdown
mode is typically 2 µA.

Figure 25. ADP1741 Internal Block Diagram
Internally, the ADP1740/ADP1741 consist of a reference,
an error amplifier, a feedback voltage divider, and a PMOS
pass transistor. Output current is delivered via the PMOS pass
transistor, which is controlled by the error amplifier. The error
amplifier compares the reference voltage with the feedback
voltage from the output and amplifies the difference. If the feed-
back voltage is lower than the reference voltage, the gate of the
PMOS device is pulled lower, allowing more current to pass
and increasing the output voltage. If the feedback voltage is
higher than the reference voltage, the gate of the PMOS device
is pulled higher, allowing less current to pass and decreasing the
output voltage.
The ADP1740 is available in seven fixed output voltage options
from 0.75 V to 2.5 V. The ADP1740 allows for connection of an
external soft start capacitor, which controls the output voltage
ramp during startup. The ADP1741 is an adjustable version with
an output voltage that can be set to a value from 0.75 V to 3.3 V
by an external voltage divider. Both devices are controlled by an
enable pin (EN).
SOFT START FUNCTION
For applications that require a controlled startup, the ADP1740/
ADP1741 provide a programmable soft start function. The
programmable soft start is useful for reducing inrush current
upon startup and for providing voltage sequencing. To implement
soft start, connect a small ceramic capacitor from SS to GND.
Upon startup, a 0.9 µA current source charges this capacitor.
The ADP1740/ADP1741 start-up output voltage is limited by
the voltage at SS, providing a smooth ramp-up to the nominal
output voltage. The soft start time is calculated as follows:
tSS = VREF × (CSS/ISS) (1)
where:
tSS is the soft start period.
VREF is the 0.5 V reference voltage.
CSS is the soft start capacitance from SS to GND.
ISS is the current sourced from SS (0.9 µA).
When the ADP1740/ADP1741 are disabled (using the EN pin),
the soft start capacitor is discharged to GND through an
internal 100 Ω resistor.

ADJUSTABLE OUTPUT VOLTAGE (ADP1741)
The output voltage of the ADP1741 can be set over a 0.75 V to
3.3 V range. The output voltage is set by connecting a resistive
voltage divider from VOUT to ADJ. The output voltage is calcu-
lated using the following equation:
VOUT = 0.5 V × (1 + R1/R2) (2)
where:
R1 is the resistor from VOUT to ADJ.
R2 is the resistor from ADJ to GND.
The maximum bias current into ADJ is 150 nA, so to achieve less
than 0.5% error due to the bias current, use values less than
60 for R2.
ENABLE FEATURE
The ADP1740/ADP1741 use the EN pin to enable and disable
the VOUT pins under normal operating conditions. As shown
in Figure 28, when a rising voltage on EN crosses the active
threshold, VOUT turns on. When a falling voltage on EN
crosses the inactive threshold, VOUT turns off.

Figure 28. Typical EN Pin Operation
As shown in Figure 28, the EN pin has hysteresis built in. This
hysteresis prevents on/off oscillations that can occur due to
noise on the EN pin as it passes through the threshold points.
The EN pin active/inactive thresholds are derived from the VIN
voltage. Therefore, these thresholds vary with changing input
voltage. Figure 29 shows typical EN active/inactive thresholds
when the input voltage varies from 1.6 V to 3.6 V.

POWER-GOOD FEATURE
The ADP1740/ADP1741 provide a power-good pin, PG, to
indicate the status of the output. This open-drain output
requires an external pull-up resistor to VIN. If the part is in
shutdown mode, current-limit mode, or thermal shutdown, or
if it falls below 90% of the nominal output voltage, the power-
good pin (PG) immediately transitions low. During soft start,
the rising threshold of the power-good signal is 93.5% of the
nominal output voltage.
The open-drain output is held low when the ADP1740/ADP1741
have sufficient input voltage to turn on the internal PG transistor.
An optional soft start delay can be detected. The PG transistor
is terminated via a pull-up resistor to VOUT or VIN.
Power-good accuracy is 93.5% of the nominal regulator output
voltage when this voltage is rising, with a 90% trip point when
this voltage is falling. Regulator input voltage brownouts or
glitches trigger power no-good if VOUT falls below 90%.
A normal power-down triggers power no-good when VOUT
drops below 90%.

REVERSE CURRENT PROTECTION FEATURE
The ADP1740/ADP1741 have additional circuitry to protect
against reverse current flow from VOUT to VIN. For a typical
LDO with a PMOS pass device, there is an intrinsic body diode
between VIN and VOUT. When VIN is greater than VOUT, this
diode is reverse-biased. If VOUT is greater than VIN, the intrinsic
diode becomes forward-biased and conducts current from
VOUT to VIN, potentially causing destructive power dissipation.
The reverse current protection circuitry detects when VOUT is
greater than VIN and reverses the direction of the intrinsic diode
connection, reverse-biasing the diode. The gate of the PMOS
pass device is also connected to VOUT, keeping the device off.
Figure 32 shows a plot of the reverse current vs. the VOUT to VIN
differential.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
CAPACITOR SELECTION
Output Capacitor
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are designed for operation with small,
space-saving ceramic capacitors, but they function with most
commonly used capacitors as long as care is taken with regard
to the effective series resistance (ESR) value. The ESR of the
output capacitor affects the stability of the LDO control loop. A
minimum of 3.3 µF capacitance with an ESR of 100 or less is
recommended to ensure the stability of the ADP1740/ADP1741.
Transient response to changes in load current is also affected by
output capacitance. Using a larger value of output capacitance
improves the transient response of the ADP1740/ADP1741 to
large changes in load current. Figure 33 and Figure 34 show the
transient responses for output capacitance values of 4.7 µF and
22 µF, respectively.

Input Bypass Capacitor
Connecting a 4.7 µF capacitor from the VIN pin to GND
reduces the circuit sensitivity to printed circuit board (PCB)
layout, especially when long input traces or high source
impedance are encountered. If output capacitance greater than
4.7 µF is required, it is recommended that the input capacitor be
increased to match it.
Input and Output Capacitor Properties
Any good quality ceramic capacitors can be used with the
ADP1740/ADP1741, as long as they meet the minimum
capacitance and maximum ESR requirements. Ceramic
capacitors are manufactured with a variety of dielectrics, each
with different behavior over temperature and applied voltage.
Capacitors must have a dielectric adequate to ensure the
minimum capacitance over the necessary temperature range
and dc bias conditions. X5R or X7R dielectrics with a voltage
rating of 6.3 V or 10 V are recommended. Y5V and Z5U
dielectrics are not recommended, due to their poor temperature
and dc bias characteristics.
Figure 35 shows the capacitance vs. voltage bias characteristics
of an 0805 case, 4.7 μF, 1 0 V, X5R capacitor. The voltage stability
of a capacitor is strongly influenced by the capacitor size and
voltage rating. In general, a capacitor in a larger package or with
a higher voltage rating exhibits better stability. The temperature
variation of the X5R dielectric is approximately ±15% over the
40°C to +85°C temperature range and is not a function of
package size or voltage rating.

Figure 35. Capacitance vs. Voltage Bias Characteristics
Use Equation 3 to determine the worst-case capacitance,
accounting for capacitor variation over temperature, com-
ponent tolerance, and voltage.
CEFF = COUT × (1 TEMPCO) × (1 − TOL) (3)
where:
CEFF is the effective capacitance at the operating voltage.
TEMPCO is the worst-case capacitor temperature coefficient.
TOL is the worst-case component tolerance.
Rev. H | Page 14 of 20
Data Sheet ADP1740/ADP1741
In this example, the worst-case temperature coefficient
(TEMPCO) over −40°C to +85°C is assumed to be 15% for an
X5R dielectric. The tolerance of the capacitor (TOL) is assumed
to be 10%, and COUT = 4.46 μF at 1.8 V, as shown in Figure 35.
Substituting these values in Equation 3 yields
CEFF = 4.46 μF × (1 − 0.15) × (1 − 0.1) = 3.41 μF
Therefore, the capacitor chosen in this example meets the
minimum capacitance requirement of the LDO over temper-
ature and tolerance at the chosen output voltage.
To guarantee the performance of the ADP1740/ADP1741,
it is imperative that the effects of dc bias, temperature, and
tolerances on the behavior of the capacitors be evaluated for
each application.
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
The ADP1740/ADP1741 have an internal undervoltage lockout
circuit that disables all inputs and the output when the input
voltage is less than approximately 1.58 V. This ensures that the
ADP1740/ADP1741 inputs and the output behave in a predict-
able manner during power-up.
CURRENT-LIMIT AND THERMAL OVERLOAD
PROTECTION
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are protected against damage due to
excessive power dissipation by current-limit and thermal
overload protection circuits. The ADP1740/ADP1741 are
designed to reach current limit when the output load reaches
3 A (typical). When the output load exceeds 3 A, the output
voltage is reduced to maintain a constant current limit.
Thermal overload protection is included, which limits the
junction temperature to a maximum of 150°C (typical). Under
extreme conditions (that is, high ambient temperature and power
dissipation) when the junction temperature begins to rise above
150°C, the output is turned off, reducing the output current to
zero. When the junction temperature drops below 135°C
(typical), the output is turned on again and output current is
restored to its nominal value.
Consider the case where a hard short from VOUT to ground
occurs. At first, the ADP1740/ADP1741 reach current limit so
that only 3 A is conducted into the short. If self-heating of the
junction becomes great enough to cause its temperature to rise
above 150°C, thermal shutdown activates, turning off the output
and reducing the output current to zero. As the junction temper-
ature cools and drops below 135°C, the output turns on and
conducts 3 A into the short, again causing the junction temper-
ature to rise above 150°C. This thermal oscillation between
135°C and 150°C causes a current oscillation between 3 A and
0 A that continues as long as the short remains at the output.
Current-limit and thermal overload protections are intended to
protect the device against accidental overload conditions. For
reliable operation, device power dissipation should be externally
limited so that junction temperatures do not exceed 125°C.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
To guarantee reliable operation, the junction temperature of the
ADP1740/ADP1741 must not exceed 125°C. To e nsure that the
junction temperature stays below this maximum value, the user
needs to be aware of the parameters that contribute to junction
temperature changes. These parameters include ambient tem-
perature, power dissipation in the power device, and thermal
resistance between the junction and ambient air (θJA). The θJA
value is dependent on the package assembly compounds used
and the amount of copper to which the GND pin and the exposed
pad (EP) of the package are soldered on the PCB. Table 6 shows
typical θJA values for the 16-lead LFCSP for various PCB copper
sizes. Table 7 shows typical ΨJB values for the 16-lead LFCSP.

The junction temperature of the ADP1740/ADP1741 can be
calculated from the following equation:
TJ = TA + (PD × θJA) (4)
where:
TA is the ambient temperature.
PD is the power dissipation in the die, given by
PD = [(VINVOUT) × ILOAD] + (VIN × IGND) (5)
where:
VIN and VOUT are the input and output voltages, respectively.
ILOAD is the load current.
IGND is the ground current.
Power dissipation due to ground current is quite small and can
be ignored. Therefore, the junction temperature equation can
be simplified as follows:
TJ = TA + {[(VINVOUT) × ILOAD] × θJA} (6)
As shown in Equation 6, for a given ambient temperature, input-
to-output voltage differential, and continuous load current, a
minimum copper size requirement exists for the PCB to ensure
that the junction temperature does not rise above 125°C. Figure 36
through Figure 41 show junction temperature calculations for
different ambient temperatures, load currents, VIN to VOUT
differentials, and areas of PCB copper.

In cases where the board temperature is known, the thermal
characterization parameter, ΨJB, can be used to estimate the
junction temperature rise. Maximum junction temperature (TJ)
is calculated from the board temperature (TB) and the power
dissipation (PD) using the following formula:
TJ = TB + (PD × ΨJB) (7)
Figure 42 through Figure 45 show junction temperature
calculations for different board temperatures, load currents,
VIN to VOUT differentials, and areas of PCB copper.

PCB LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
Heat dissipation from the package can be improved by increasing
the amount of copper attached to the pins of the ADP1740/
ADP1741. However, as shown in Table 6, a point of diminishing
returns is eventually reached, beyond which an increase in the
copper size does not yield significant heat dissipation benefits.
Here are a few general tips when designing PCBs:
Place the input capacitor as close as possible to the VIN
and GND pins.
Place the output capacitor as close as possible to the VOUT
and GND pins.
Place the soft start capacitor close to the SS pin.
Connect the load as close as possible to the VOUT and
SENSE pins (ADP1740) or to the VOUT and ADJ pins
(ADP1741).
Use of 0603 or 0805 size capacitors and resistors achieves the
smallest possible footprint solution on boards where area is
limited.
