Description
The RC1584 and RC1584-1.5 are low dropout three-terminal
regulators with 7A output current capability . These devices
have been optimized for low voltage applications including
VTT bus termination, where transient response and minimum
input voltage are critical. The RC1584 is ideal for low
voltage microprocessor applications requiring a regulated
output from 1.5V to 3.6V with an input supply of 5V or less.
The RC1584-1.5 offers fixed 1.5V with 7A current capability for GTL+ bus V
Current limit is trimmed to ensure specified output current
and controlled short-circuit current. On-chip thermal limiting
provides protection against any combination of overload and
ambient temperature that would create excessive junction
temperatures.
The RC1584 and RC1584-1.5 are available in the industrystandard TO-220, TO-263 and TO-263 center cut power

Applications Information
General
D1
The RC1584 and RC1584-1.5 are three-terminal regulators
optimized for GTL+ VTT termination applications. These
devices are short-circuit protected, and offer thermal shutdown to turn off the regulator when the junction temperature
exceeds about 150°C. The RC1584 series provides lo w dropout voltage and fast transient response. Frequency compensation uses capacitors with low ESR while still maintaining
stability. This is critical in addressing the needs of low voltage high speed microprocessor buses like GTL+.
Stability
The RC1584 series require an output capacitor as a part of
the frequency compensation. It is recommended to use a
22µF solid tantalum or a 100µF aluminum electrolytic on the
output to ensure stability. The frequency compensation of
these devices optimizes the frequency response with low
ESR capacitors. In general, it is suggested to use capacitors
with an ESR of <1Ω. It is also recommended to use bypass
capacitors such as a 22µF tantalum or a 100µF aluminum on
the adjust pin of the RC1584 for low ripple and fast transient
response. When these bypassing capacitors are not used at
the adjust pin, larger values of output capacitors provide
equally good results.
Protection Diodes
In normal operation, the RC1584 series does not require any
protection diodes. For the RC1584, internal resistors limit
internal current paths on the adjust pin. Therefore, even with
bypass capacitors on the adjust pin, no protection diode is
needed to ensure device safety under shortcircuit conditions.
A protection diode between the input and output pins is usually not needed. An internal diode between the input and output pins on the RC1584 series can handle microsecond surge
currents of 50A to 100A. Even with large value output
capacitors it is difficult to obtain those values of surge currents in normal operation. Only with large values of output
capacitance, such as 1000µF to 5000µF, and with the input
pin instantaneously shorted to ground can damage occur. A
crowbar circuit at the input can generate those levels of current; a diode from output to input is then recommended, as
shown in Figure 10. Usually , normal po wer supply cycling or
system “hot plugging and unplugging” will not generate current large enough to do any damage.
The adjust pin can be driven on a transient basis ±7V with
respect to the output, without any device degradation. As
with any IC regulator, exceeding the maximum input-tooutput voltage differential causes the internal transistors to
break down and none of the protection circuitry is then
functional.

Ripple Rejection
In applications that require improved ripple rejection, a
bypass capacitor from the adjust pin of the RC1584 to
ground reduces the output ripple by the ratio of V
The impedance of the adjust pin capacitor at the ripple frequency should be less than the value of R1 (typically in the
range of 100Ω to 120Ω) in the feedback divider network in
Figure 10. Therefore, the value of the required adjust pin
capacitor is a function of the input ripple frequency. For
example, if R1 equals 100Ω and the ripple frequency equals
120Hz, the adjust pin capacitor should be 22µF. At 10kHz,
only 0.22µF is needed.
Output V oltage
The RC1584 regulator develops a 1.25V reference voltage
between the output pin and the adjust pin (see Figure 11).
Placing a resistor R1 between these two terminals causes a
constant current to flow through R1 and down through R2 to
set the overall output voltage. Normally, this current is the
specified minimum load current of 10mA.
The current out of the adjust pin adds to the current from R1
and is typically 35µA. Its output voltage contribution is
small and only needs consideration when very precise output
voltage setting is required.

Figure 11. Basic Regulator Circuit
Load Regulation
It is not possible to provide true remote load sensing because
the RC1584 series are three-terminal devices. Load regulation is limited by the resistance of the wire connecting the
regulators to the load. Load regulation per the data sheet
specification is measured at the bottom of the package.
For fixed voltage devices, negative side sensing is a true
Kelvin connection with the ground pin of the device returned
to the negative side of the load. This is illustrated in
Figure 12.

Thermal Considerations
The RC1584 series protect themselves under overload conditions with internal power and thermal limiting circuitry.
However, for normal continuous load conditions, do not
exceed maximum junction temperature ratings. It is important to consider all sources of thermal resistance from junction-to-ambient. These sources include the junction-to-case
resistance, the case-to-heat sink interface resistance, and the
heat sink resistance. Thermal resistance specifications have
been developed to more accurately reflect device temperature and ensure safe operating temperatures.
For example, look at using an RC1584T to generate 7A @

Figure 12. Connection for Best Load Regulation
For adjustable voltage devices, ne gativ e side sensing is a true
Kelvin connection with the bottom of the output divider
returned to the negative side of the load. The best load regulation is obtained when the top of resistor divider R1 connects directly to the regulator output and not to the load.
Figure 13 illustrates this point.
If R1 connects to the load, then the effective resistance
between the regulator and the load would be:
RP × (1 + R2/R1), R
= Parasitic Line Resistance
P
The connection shown in Figure 13 does not multiply RP by
the divider ratio. As an example, RP is about four milliohms
per foot with 16-gauge wire. This translates to 4mV per foot
at 1A load current. At higher load currents, this drop represents a significant percentage of the overall regulation. It is
important to keep the positive lead between the regulator and
the load as short as possible and to use large wire or PC
board traces.
