Switching Power-Supply Post-Regulation

DESCRIPTION

The TLV1171 low-dropout (LDO) linear regulator is a

low input voltage version of the popular 1117 voltage

regulator.

The TLV1171 is an extremely low-power device that

consumes 500x lower quiescent current than the

traditional 1117 voltage regulator, making the

TLV1171 suitable for applications that mandate very

low standby current. The TLV1171 LDO is also stable

with 0 mA of load current; there is no minimum load

requirement, making the device an ideal choice for

applications where the regulator is required to power

very small loads during standby in addition to large currents on the order of 1 A during normal operation.

The TLV1171 offers excellent line and load transient

performance, resulting in very small magnitude output

voltage undershoots and overshoots when the load

current requirement changes from less than 1 mA to

more than 500 mA.

A precision band gap and error amplifier provides

1.5% accuracy. A very high power-supply rejection

ratio enables the device to be used for postregulation

after a switching regulator. Other valuable

features include low output noise and low-dropout

voltage.

The device is internally compensated to be stable

with 0-Ω equivalent series resistance (ESR)

capacitors. These key advantages enable the use of

cost-effective, small-size ceramic capacitors. Cost•

effective capacitors that have higher bias voltages

and temperature derating can also be used if desired.

The TLV1171 is available in a SOT223 package. For

alternate pin outs of the device, refer to the
