DUESCRIPTIO
The LT1117 is a positive low dropout regulator designed
to provide up to 800mA of output current. The device is
available in an adjustable version and fixed output voltages
of 2.85V, 3.3V and 5V. The 2.85V version is designed
specifically to be used in Active Terminators for the SCSI
bus. All internal circuitry is designed to operate down to 1V
input to output differential. Dropout voltage is guaranteed
at a maximum of 1.2V at 800mA, decreasing at lower load
currents. On chip trimming adjusts the reference/output
voltage to within ± 1%. Current limit is also trimmed in
order to minimize the stress on both the regulator and the
power source circuitry under overload conditions.
The low profile surface mount SOT-223 package allows
the device to be used in applications where space is
limited. The LT1117 requires a minimum of 10µF of output
capacitance for stability. Output capacitors of this size or
larger are normally included in most regulator designs.
Unlike PNP type regulators where up to 10% of the output
current is wasted as quiescent current, the quiescent
current of the LT1117 flows into the load, increasing
efficiency.

The LT1117 family of three-terminal regulators are easy to
use. They are protected against short circuit and thermal
overloads. Thermal protection circuitry will shutdown the
regulator should the junction temperature exceed 165°C
at the sense point. These regulators are pin compatible
with older three-terminal adjustable regulators, offer
lower dropout voltage and more precise reference tolerance. Reference stability over temperature is improved
over older types of regulators.
Stability
The LT1117 family of regulators requires an output capacitor as part of the device frequency compensation. A
minimum of 10µF of tantalum or 50µF of aluminum
electrolytic is required. The ESR of the output capacitor
should be less than 0.5Ω. Surface mount tantalum capacitors, which have very low ESR, are available from several
manufacturers.
When using the LT1117 adjustable device the adjust
terminal can be bypassed to improve ripple rejection.
OUT
LT1117 • BD01
When the adjust terminal is bypassed the required value
of the output capacitor increases. The device will require
an output capacitor of 22µF tantalum or 150µF aluminum
electrolytic when the adjust pin is bypassed.
Normally, capacitor values on the order of 100µF are used
in the output of many regulators to ensure good load
transient response with large load current changes. Output capacitance can be increased without limit and larger
values of output capacitance further improve stability and
transient response.
Protection Diodes
In normal operation, the LT1117 family does not need any
protection diodes. Older adjustable regulators required
protection diodes between the adjust pin and the output
and between the output and input to prevent over stressing the die. The internal current paths on the LT1117 adjust
pin are limited by internal resistors. Therefore, even with
capacitors on the adjust pin, no protection diode is needed
to ensure device safety under short circuit conditions. The

adjust pin can be driven, on a transient basis, ±25V with
respect to the output without any device degradation.
Diodes between input and output are not usually needed.
The internal diode between the output and input pins of the
device can withstand microsecond surge currents of 10A
to 20A. Normal power supply cycling can not generate
currents of this magnitude. Only with extremely large
output capacitors, such as 1000µF and larger, and with the
input pin instantaneously shorted to ground can damage
occur. A crowbar circuit at the input of the LT1117 in
combination with a large output capacitor could generate
currents large enough to cause damage. In this case a
diode from output to input is recommended, as shown in
Figure 1.

to set the overall output voltage. Normally this current is
chosen to be the specified minimum load current of 10mA.
Because I
is very small and constant when compared
ADJ
to the current through R1, it represents a small error and
can usually be ignored. For fixed voltage devices R1 and
R2 are included in the device.
Load Regulation
Because the LT1117 is a three-terminal device, it is not
possible to provide true remote load sensing. Load regulation will be limited by the resistance of the wire connecting the regulator to the load. The data sheet specification
for load regulation is measured at the output pin of the
device. Negative side sensing is a true Kelvin connection,
with the bottom of the output divider returned to the
negative side of the load. Although it may not be immediately obvious, best load regulation is obtained when the
top of the resistor divider (R1) is returned directly to the
output pin of the device, not to the load. This is illustrated
in Figure 3. Connected as shown, RP is not multiplied by
the divider ratio. If R1 were connected to the load, the
effective resistance between the regulator and the load
would be:
Figure 1.
Output Voltage
The LT1117 develops a 1.25V reference voltage between
the output and the adjust terminal (see Figure 2). By
placing a resistor between these two terminals, a constant
current is caused to flow through R1 and down through R2

Thermal Considerations
LT1117 series regulators have internal thermal limiting
circuitry designed to protect the device during overload
conditions. For continuous normal load conditions however, the maximum junction temperature rating of 125°C
must not be exceeded.
It is important to give careful consideration to all sources
of thermal resistance from junction to ambient. For the
SOT-223 package, which is designed to be surface
mounted, additional heat sources mounted near the device must also be considered. Heat sinking is accomplished using the heat spreading capability of the PC board
and its copper traces. The thermal resistance of the
LT1117 is 15°C/W from the junction to the tab. Thermal
resistances from tab to ambient can be as low as 30°C/W.
The total thermal resistance from junction to ambient can
be as low as 45°C/W. This requires a reasonable sized PC
board with at least one layer of copper to spread the heat
across the board and couple it into the surrounding air.
Experiments have shown that the heat spreading copper
layer does not need to be electrically connected to the tab
of the device. The PC material can be very effective at
transmitting heat between the pad area, attached to the tab
of the device, and a ground plane layer either inside or on
the opposite side of the board. Although the actual thermal
resistance of the PC material is high, the Length/Area ratio
of the thermal resistor between layers is small. The data in
Table 1 was taken using 1/16" FR-4 board with 1oz. copper
foil. It can be used as a rough guideline in estimating
thermal resistance.

The thermal resistance for each application will be affected
by thermal interactions with other components on the
board. Some experimentation will be necessary to determine the actual value.

ambient))
Maximum junction temperature must not exceed 125°C.
Ripple Rejection
The curves for Ripple Rejection were generated using an
adjustable device with the adjust pin bypassed. These
curves will hold true for all values of output voltage. For
proper bypassing, and ripple rejection approaching the
values shown, the impedance of the adjust pin capacitor,
at the ripple frequency, should be < R1. R1 is normally in
the range of 100Ω-200Ω. The size of the required adjust
pin capacitor is a function of the input ripple frequency. At
120Hz, with R1=100Ω, the adjust pin capacitor should be
> 13µF. At 10kHz only 0.16µF is needed.
For fixed voltage devices, and adjustable devices without
an adjust pin capacitor, the output ripple will increase as
the ratio of the output voltage to the reference voltage
(V
OUT/VREF
5V, the output ripple will be increased by the ratio of 5V/
1.25V. It will increase by a factor of four. Ripple rejection
will be degraded by 12dB from the value shown
on the curve.

The SOT-223 is manufactured with gull wing leadform for
surface mount applications. The leads and heatsink are
solder plated and allow easy soldering using non-active or
mildly active fluxes. The package is constructed with three
leads exiting one side of the package and one heatsink
exiting the other side, and the die attached to the heatsink
internally.

The recommended methods of soldering SOT-223 are:
vapor phase reflow and infrared reflow with preheat of
component to within 65°C of the solder temperature.
Hand soldering and wave soldering are not recommended since these methods can easily damage the
part with excessive thermal gradients across the package.
Care must be exercised during surface mount to minimize
large (> 30°C per second) thermal shock to the package.
