GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP3342 is a unique member of the ADP33xx family
of precision low dropout anyCAP voltage regulators. The
ADP3342 operates with an input voltage range of 1.7 V to 6 V
and delivers a continuous load current up to 300 mA. In order
to support the ability to regulate from such a low input voltage,
the power rail to the IC, VCC, has been split off from the main
power rail, IN, from which the output is powered.
The ADP3342 stands out from the conventional LDOs because
it has the lowest thermal resistance of any MSOP-8 package and
an enhanced process that enables it to offer performance
advantages beyond its competition. Its patented design requires
only a 1.0 µF output capacitor for stability. This device is
insensitive to output capacitor equivalent series resistance (ESR)
and is stable with any good quality capacitor, including ceramic
(MLCC) types for space-restricted applications. The dropout
voltage of the ADP3342 is only 190 mV (typical) at 300 mA.
This device also includes a safety current limit, thermal
overload protection, and a shutdown control pin.

ADP3342
THEORY OF OPERATION
The anyCAP LDO ADP3342 uses a single control loop for
regulation and reference functions. The output voltage is sensed
by a resistive voltage divider consisting of R1 and R2. Feedback
is taken from this network by way of a series diode (D1) and a
second resistor divider (R3 and R4) to the input of an amplifier.

The R1, R2 divider is chosen in the same ratio as the band gap
voltage to the output voltage. Although the R1, R2 resistor divider
is loaded by Diode D1 and a second divider consisting of R3
and R4, the values can be chosen to produce a temperature stable
output. This unique arrangement specifically corrects for the
loading of the divider so that the error resulting from base current loading in conventional circuits is avoided.
The patented amplifier controls a unique noninverting driver
that drives the pass transistor, Q1. The use of this special
noninverting driver enables the frequency compensation to
include the load capacitor in a pole splitting arrangement to
achieve reduced sensitivity to the value, type, and ESR of the
load capacitance.
GND
Figure 29. Control Loop Functional Block Diagram
A very high gain error amplifier is used to control this loop.
The amplifier is constructed in such a way that, at equilibrium,
it produces a large, temperature proportional input offset voltage that is repeatable and very well controlled. The temperature
proportional offset voltage is combined with the complementary
diode voltage to form a virtual band gap voltage, implicit in the
network, although it never appears explicitly in the circuit.
Ultimately, this patented design makes it possible to control the
loop with only one amplifier. This technique also improves the
noise characteristics of the amplifier by providing more flexibility on the trade-off of noise sources that lead to a low noise
design.
02712-029
Most LDOs place very strict requirements on the range of ESR
values for the output capacitor because they are difficult to
stabilize due to the uncertainty of load capacitance and resistance.
Moreover, the ESR value required to keep conventional LDOs
stable, changes depending on load and temperature. These ESR
limitations make designing with LDOs more difficult because of
their unclear specifications and extreme variations over
temperature.
With the ADP3342 anyCAP LDO, this is no longer true. It can
be used with virtually any good quality capacitor, with no constraint on the minimum ESR. This innovative design allows the
circuit to be stable with just a small 1 µF capacitor on the output.
Additional advantages of the pole splitting scheme include
superior line noise rejection and very high regulator gain,
resulting in excellent line and load regulation. Additional features
of the circuit include current limit, thermal shutdown, and noise
reduction.

ADP3342
APPLICATION INFORMATION
PC APPLICATION—VCCVID
The ADP3342 has been optimized for PC applications that
require a 1.2 V output for powering the voltage identification
rail, V
. The rail from which the output draws current, the
CCVID
IN pin, is separated from the rail that powers the IC, the VCC
pin. This allows a higher efficiency design when, as recommended for IMVP-3/5 applications, the VCC pin is connected
to a 3.3 V supply to power the IC adequately, and the IN pin is
connected to a 1.8 V supply. The efficiency is nearly 60% in this
case.
CAPACITOR SELECTION
As with any voltage regulator, output transient response is a
function of the output capacitance. The ADP3342 is stable with
a wide range of capacitor values, types, and ESR (anyCAP). A
capacitor as low as 1 µF is all that is needed for stability; larger
capacitors can be used if high output current surges are anticipated. The ADP3342 is stable with extremely low ESR capacitors
(ESR ≈ 0), such as multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) or
OSCON. The effective capacitance of some capacitor types may
fall below the minimum at cold temperature. Ensure that the
capacitor provides more than 1 µF at minimum temperature.
INPUT BYPASS CAPACITOR
An input bypass capacitor is not strictly required but is advisable
in any application involving long input wires or high source
impedance. Connecting a 1 µF capacitor from IN to ground
reduces the circuit’s sensitivity to PC board layout. If a larger
value output capacitor is used, a larger value input capacitor is
also recommended.
POWER GOOD MONITORING FUNCTION
The PWRGD pin does not monitor the output voltage directly
but rather detects whether the internal PNP pass transistor is
being modulated by the regulation loop. This method of
detecting PWRGD, rather than using a voltage threshold
detection, provides an inherent and desirable delay in asserting
the PWRGD signal. During startup or overload, the regulation
loop is not in control, so the PWRGD pin is low.
SHUTDOWN MODE
Applying a TTL high signal to the shutdown (SD) pin, or tying
it to the VCC input pin, turns on the output. Pulling
SD
down
to 0.4 V or below, or tying it to ground, turns off the output. In
shutdown mode, quiescent current is reduced.
THERMAL OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The ADP3342 is protected against damage due to excessive
power dissipation by its thermal overload protection circuit,
which limits the die temperature to a maximum of 165°C.
Under extreme conditions, that is, high ambient temperature
and power dissipation where die temperature starts to rise
above 165°C, the output current is reduced until the die temperature drops to a safe level. The output current is restored when
the die temperature is reduced.
Current and thermal limit protections are intended to protect
the device against accidental overload conditions. For normal
operation, device power dissipation should be limited by operating conditions so that the junction temperature does not
exceed 150°C.
CALCULATING JUNCTION TEMPERATURE
Device power dissipation is calculated as follows:

P
D
where I
and V
V
IN
and I

are input and output voltages, respectively.

P
D
The ADP3342 is capable of supplying 300 mA @ V
a typical notebook PC application. If a higher input voltage,
such as 3.3 V, is used, the power dissipation of the ADP3342 is
limited by the thermal overload protection. Assuming a 4-layer
board, the junction temperature rise above ambient
temperature is approximately equal to
