The APE8901 is a 1A ultra low dropout linear
regulator. This product is specifically designed to provide
well supply voltage for front-side-bus termination on
motherboards and NB applications. The IC needs two
supply voltages, a control voltage for the circuitry and a
main supply voltage for power conversion, to reduce
power dissipation and provide extremely low dropout. The
APE8901 integrates many functions. A Power-On-Reset
(POR) circuit monitors both supply voltages to prevent
wrong operations. A thermal shutdown and current limit
functions protect the device against thermal and current
over-loads. A POK indicates the output status with time
delay which is set internally. It can control other converter
for power sequence. The APE8901 can be enabled by
other power system. Pulling and holding the EN pin below
0.3V shuts off the output.
The APE8901 is available in ESOP-8, SOT-26 and
DFN 2x2 packages. That features small size as SOP-8
with an Exposed Pad to reduce the junction-to-case
resistance, being applicable in 2~3W applications.

Where R1 is connected from VOUT to FB with Kelvin sensing and R2 is connected from FB
to GND. A bypass capacitor may be connected with R1in parallel to improve load transient
response. The recommended R2 and R1 are in the range of 1K~100kΩ.
Main supply input pins for power conversions. The voltage at this pin is monitored for
Power-On Reset
ose.
Power input pin of the control circuitry. Connecting this pin to a +5V (recommended) supply
voltage provides the bias for the control circuitry. The voltage at this pin is monitored for Power-On
Reset purpose.
Power-OK signal output pin. This pin is an open-drain output used to indicate status of
output voltage by sensing FB voltage. This pin is pulled low when the rising FB voltage is not
above the VPOK threshold or the falling FB voltage is below the VPOK threshold, indicating the
output is not OK.
Enable control pin. Pulling and holding this pin below 0.4V shuts down the output. When re-
enabled, the IC undergoes a new soft-start cycle. Left this pin open, this pin is internal pulled up to
VCNTL voltage, enabling the regulator.
