LM9074
System Voltage Regulator with Keep-Alive ON/OFF
Control
General Description
The LM9074 is a 5V, 3%accurate, 180 mA NPN voltage
regulator.The regulator features an activelow delayed reset
output flag which can be used to reset a microprocessor system on turn-ON and in the event that the regulator output
falls out of regulation for any reason. An external capacitor
programs a delay time interval before the reset output can
return high.
Designed for automotive application the LM9074 contains a
variety of protection features such as reverse battery,
over-voltage shutdown, thermal shutdown, input transient
protection and a wide operating temperature range.
A unique two-input logic control scheme is used to enable or
disable the regulator output. An ON/OFF input can be provided by an ignition switch derived signal while a second,
Keep-Alive input, is generated by a system controller. This
allows for a system to remain ON after ignition has been
switched OFF. The system controller can then execute a
power-down routine and after which command the regulator
OFF to a low quiescent current state (60 µA max).
Design techniques have been employed to allow the regulator to remain operational and not generate false reset signals
when subjected to high levels of RF energy (300V/m from
2 MHz to 400 MHz).

Application Information
The LM9074 voltage regulator has been optimized for use in
microprocessor based automotive systems. Several unique
design features have been incorporated to address many
FMEA (Failure Mode Effects Analysis) concerns for fail-safe
system performance.
FAULT TOLERANT FEATURES
While not specifically guaranteed due to production testing
limitations, the LM9074 has been tested and shown to continue to provide a regulated output and, not generate an erroneous system reset signal while subjected to high levels of
RF electric field energy (up to 300 V/m signal strength over
a 2 MHz to 400 MHz frequency range). This is very important
in vehicle safety related applications where the system must
continue to operate normally. To maintain this immunity to
RFI the output bypass capacitor is important (47 µF is recommended).
This regulator is suitable for applications where continuous
connection to the battery is required (
Refer to the Typical Ap-
plication Circuit
). ON/OFF control of the regulator and system can be accomplished by switching the ON/OFF input to
the battery or ignition supply V
IN
supply through a SPST
switch. If this input becomes open circuited, an internal
pull-down resistor ensures that the regulator turns OFF.
When the regulator is switched OFF the current load on the
DS101305-22
LM9074

Application Information (Continued)
battery drops to less than 60 µA. With the possibility in many
applications for V
IN
and the ON/OFF input pins to be connected in a system through long lengths of wire, the ESD
protection of these pins has been increased to 12 kV with the
addition of small input bypass capacitors.
An output bypass capacitor of at least 0.1µF is required for
stability (47 µF is recommended). An input capacitor of 1 µF
or larger is recommended to improve line transient and noise
performance.
With the Keep-Alive input, a system microprocessor has the
ability to keep the regulator ON (with a logic “0” on
Keep-Alive) after the ON/OFF input has been commanded
OFF. A power-down sequence, when system variables are
typically stored in programmable memory, can be executed
and take as much time as necessary. At the end of the operation the micro then pulls Keep-Alive high and the regulator and system turn OFF and revert to the low quiescent current standby mode.
For additional system reliability, consideration has been
made for the possibility of a short circuited load at the output
of the regulator. When the regulator is switched ON, conventional current limiting and thermal shutdown protect the regulator. When the regulator is switched OFF however, a
grounded V
CC
supply to the micro (due to the shorted regulator output) will force the Keep-Alive input to be low and
thus try to maintain the Keep-Alive mode of operation. With
a shorted load, the drain on the battery could be as high as
1.5A. A separate internal circuit monitors the output voltage
of the regulator.If V
OUT
is less than 4V,as would be the case
with a shorted load, the Keep-Alive function is logically disabled to ensure that the regulator turns OFF and reverts to
less than a 60 µA load on the battery.
Conventional load dump protection is built in to withstand up
to +60V and −50V transients. A 1 kΩ resistor in series with
the ON/OFF and Keep-Alive inputs are recommended to
provide the same level of transient protection for these pins
if required. Protection against reverse polarity battery connections is also built in. With a reversed battery the output of
the LM9074 will not go more negative than one diode drop
below ground. This will prevent damage to any of the 5V load
circuits.
For applications where the control logic is not required the
logic pins should be configured as shown in
Figure 2
.A
separate device, called the LM9071, can be used. The
LM9071 is available in a 5-lead TO-220 package and does
not provide control logic functions, but still retains all of the
protection features of the LM9074.
RESET FLAG
Excessive loading of the output to the point where the output
voltage drops by 300 mV to 500 mV will signal a reset flag to
the micro. This will warn of a V
CC
supply that may produce
unpredictable operation of the system. On power-up and recovery from a fault condition the delay capacitor is used to
hold the micro in a reset condition for a programmable time
interval to allow the system operating voltages and
clock to stabilize before executing code. The typical delay
time interval can be estimated using the following equation:

MICROPROCESSOR SYSTEM REGULATOR WITH
KEEP-ALIVE INTERVAL AT TURN-OFF
The following circuit illustrates a system application utilizing
both of the logic control inputs of the LM9074. Closing the
ON/OFF switch powers ON the system. Once powered, the
system controller sets the Keep-Alive line low. The NPN
transistor is used only to signal the controller that the ON/
OFF switch has been opened and the system is to be turned
OFF. Upon detecting this high level at the ON/OFF Sense input line, the controller can then perform a power down routine. The system will remain fully powered until the controller
commands total shut down by taking the Keep-Alive line
high. The system then shuts OFF and reverts to a very low
current drain standby condition until switched back on.
