General Description
The TC1269 is a fixed output, high accuracy (typically
±0.5%) CMOS upgrade for older (bipolar) low dropout
regulators. Total supply current is typically 50µAatfull
load (20 to 60 times lower than in bipolar regulators).
TC1269 key features include ultra low noise operation
(plus optional Bypass input); very low dropout voltage
(typically240mV at full load),and fast responseto step
changes in load. Supply current i s reduced to 0.05µA
(typical) and V
falls to zero when the shutdown

input is low.
The TC1269 incorporates both over temperature and
over current protection. The TC1269 is stable with an
output capacitor of only 1µF and has a maximum
output current of 300mA.

3.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The TC1269 is a precision regulator available in fixed
voltages. Unlike the bipolar regulators, the TC1269
supply current does not increase with load current. In
addition, V

RAM battery backup applications).
Figure 3-1 shows a typical application circuit. The
regulator is enabled any time the shutdown input
(SHDN
) is at or above VIH, and shutdown (disabled)
when SHDN

3.1 Bypass Input
A 470pF capacitor connected from the Bypass input to
ground reduces noise present on t he internal
reference, which i n turn significantly reduces output
noise.Ifoutputnoiseisnota concern,thisinputmaybe

used, but resultsin a longer time period to rated output

effective series resistance greater than 0.1Ω and less
than 5.0Ω, and a resonant frequency above 1MHz. A
1µF capacitor should be connected from V
there is more than 10 inches of wire between the
regulator and the AC filter capacitor, or if a battery is
used as the power source. Aluminum electrolytic or
tantalum capacitor types can be used. (Since many
aluminum electrolytic capacitors f reeze at approximately - 30°C, solid tantalums are recommended for
applications operating below -25°C.) When operating
from sources other than batteries, supply-noise
rejection and transient response can be improved by
increasing the value of the input and output capacitors
and employing passive filtering techniques.
