Figure 1. TSOT ADP151-EP with Fixed Output Voltage, 3.3 V
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADP151-EP is an ultralow noise, low dropout linear
regulator that operates from 2.2 V to 5.5 V and provides up to
200 mA of output current. The low 150 mV dropout voltage at
200 mA load improves efficiency and allows operation over a
wide input voltage range.
Using an innovative circuit topology, the ADP151-EP achieves
ultralow noise performance without the necessity of a bypass
capacitor, making it ideal for noise-sensitive analog and RF
applications. The ADP151-EP also achieves ultralow noise
performance without compromising PSRR or transient line
and load performance. The low 265 μA of quiescent current
at 200 mA load makes the ADP151-EP suitable for battery-
operated portable equipment.
The ADP151-EP also includes an internal pull-down resistor
on the EN input.
The ADP151-EP is specifically designed for stable operation
with tiny 1 µF, ±30% ceramic input and output capacitors to
meet the requirements of high performance, space constrained
applications.
The ADP151-EP is capable of 16 fixed output voltage options,
ranging from 1.1 V to 3.3 V.
Short-circuit and thermal overload protection circuits prevent
damage in adverse conditions. The ADP151-EP is available in a
tiny 5-lead TSOT package.
Additional application and technical information can be found
in the ADP151 data sheet.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
In most applications, the ADP151-EP does not dissipate much
heat due to its high efficiency. However, in applications with a
high ambient temperature and a high supply voltage to output
voltage differential, the heat dissipated in the package can cause
the junction temperature of the die to exceed the maximum
junction temperature of 125°C.
When the junction temperature exceeds 150°C, the converter
enters thermal shutdown. It recovers only after the junction
temperature has decreased below 135°C to prevent any permanent
damage. Therefore, thermal analysis for the chosen application
is very important to guarantee reliable performance over all
conditions. The junction temperature of the die is the sum of
the ambient temperature of the environment and the temperature rise of the package due to the power dissipation, as shown
in Equation 1.
To guarantee reliable operation, the junction temperature of
the ADP151-EP must not exceed 125°C. To ensure that the
junction temperature stays below this maximum value, the user
must be aware of the parameters that contribute to junction
temperature changes. These parameters include ambient
temperature, power dissipation in the power device, and thermal
resistances between the junction and ambient air (θ
number is dependent on the package assembly compounds that
are used and the amount of copper used to solder the package
GND pins to the PCB.

As shown in Equation 3, for a given ambient temperature, input-tooutput voltage differential and continuous load current, there

PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
Heat dissipation from the package can be improved by increasing
the amount of copper attached to the pins of the ADP151-EP.
However, as listed in Tabl e 6, a point of diminishing returns
is eventually reached, beyond which an increase in the copper
size does not yield significant heat dissipation benefits.
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. Use of 0402 or 0603 size capacitors and
resistors achieves the smallest possible footprint solution on
boards where area is limited.
