THREE TERMINAL LOW DROPOUT VOLTAGE REGULATOR

The µPC24A00 Series is a low dropout voltage three terminal regulator that has realized a minimum voltage
differential between the I/O of no more than 1 V when the output current is 2 A through the employment of a PNP
transistor at the output stage.

Due to its ability to achieve a greater reduction in the power loss compared with conventional three-terminal

regulators, the µPC24A00 Series is ideal for use as the secondary side smoothing circuit of a power supply.

Caution Product quality may suffer if the absolute maximum rating is exceeded even momentarily for any

parameter. That is, the absolute maximum ratings are rated values at which the product is on the
verge of suffering physical damage, and therefore the product must be used under conditions that
ensure that the absolute maximum ratings are not exceeded.

CIN: 0.1 to 0.47 µF. Be sure to connect to prevent abnormal oscillation. When using capacitors, film capacitors with

excellent voltage and temperature characteristics are recommended. Be aware that some monolithic ceramic
capacitors have inferior temperature and voltage characteristics. When using a monolithic ceramic capacitor,
CIN requires a capacitor that can secure this capacity within the voltage and temperature range used.

Caution The recommended operating range may be exceeded without causing any problems provided that

the absolute maximum ratings are not exceeded. However, if the device is operated in a way that
exceeds the recommended operating conditions, the margin between the actual conditions of use
and the absolute maximum ratings is small, and therefore thorough evaluation is necessary. The
recommended operating conditions do not imply that the device can be used with all values at their
maximum values.

circuit is cancelled. In this case, restore the output by lowering and then reapplying VIN.
If a lower than recommended input voltage is used in the µPC24A00 Series, a large circuit current will flow due to
the saturation of the output stage transistor (refer to the reference characteristic curve of the I
characteristics). The capacitance for the input side power supply therefore needs to be only enough to enable the
current to flow in this circuit at startup. Note also that a resistor cannot be inserted at the GND pin to adjust the
output voltage.

• While NEC Corporation has been making continuous effort to enhance the reliability of its semiconductor devices,
the possibility of defects cannot be eliminated entirely. To minimize risks of damage or injury to persons or
property arising from a defect in an NEC semiconductor device, customers must incorporate sufficient safety
measures in its design, such as redundancy, fire-containment, and anti-failure features.

• NEC devices are classified into the following three quality grades:
"Standard", "Special", and "Specific". The Specific quality grade applies only to devices developed based on a
customer designated "quality assurance program" for a specific application. The recommended applications of
a device depend on its quality grade, as indicated below. Customers must check the quality grade of each device
before using it in a particular application.
Standard: Computers, office equipment, communications equipment, test and measurement equipment,
audio and visual equipment, home electronic appliances, machine tools, personal electronic
equipment and industrial robots
Special: Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.), traffic control systems, anti-disaster
systems, anti-crime systems, safety equipment and medical equipment (not specifically designed
for life support)
Specific: Aircraft, aerospace equipment, submersible repeaters, nuclear reactor control systems, life
support systems or medical equipment for life support, etc.
The quality grade of NEC devices is "Standard" unless otherwise specified in NEC's Data Sheets or Data Books.
If customers intend to use NEC devices for applications other than those specified for Standard quality grade,
they should contact an NEC sales representative in advance.
