Micropower 150 mA, low-noise, low dropout linear
regulator with on/off
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SA57031 is a 150 mA, fixed output voltage regulator designed
to provide very low dropout voltage and low noise in battery
powered and portable applications. The output voltage is preset to
voltages between 1.8 to 5.0 Volts, in 100 mV increments.
The SA57031 achieves excellent performance in all specifications
such as excellent power supply ripple rejection at low frequency, low
supply-current, low dropout voltage, low power consumption,
extremely small size with chip scaled package (CSP), extremely low
output noise voltage, very fast start-up response time, precision
output, fast dynamic response to line and load regulation, etc. This
regulator consists of an internal voltage reference, and current limit.
The SA57031 is housed in a WL-CSP4 package (see dimensional
drawing for layout).

TECHNICAL DISCUSSION
As illustrated in Figure 16, the SA57031 consists of a band-gap
voltage reference, an error amplifier, P-channel pass transistor ,
current limit circuit and an internal feedback voltage divider. The
output voltage is fed back through an internal resistor voltage divider
connected to the V
O pin.
The reference is connected to the error amplifier’s inverting input.
The error amplifier compares the reference with the feedback

voltage and amplifies the difference. If the feedback voltage is lower
than the reference voltage, the pass transistor’s gate is pulled lower,
which allows more current to pass to the output and increase the
output voltage. If the feedback voltage is too high, the pass
transistor gate is pulled up, allowing less current to pass to the
output, resulting in a decrease in output voltage.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The following points have to be kept in mind for good performance
while using these devices.
Input Capacitor
An input capacitor of 2.2 µF is required between the SA57031 input
pin and the circuit ground. This capacitor must be located as close
as possible to the V
I or GND pin (not more than 1 cm away from the
pin) and returned to a clean analog ground. Any good quality
ceramic, tantalum, or film capacitor will work.
Output Capacitor
Phase compensation is used for securing stable operation even if
the load current varies. For this reason, an output capacitor with
ON/OFF PIN MUST BE ACTIVELY TERMINATED

OFF

good frequency characteristics is needed. Set it as close to the
circuit as possible and make the wiring as short as possible. The
value of the output capacitance has to be at least 2.2µF and has to
have B-type temperature characteristics.
ON/OFF (Chip Enable) Pin
The ON/OFF pin must be actively terminated, not floating. If the
function is not needed, the pin should be tied to V
enable the device.
Line Impedance of VI and GND
The VI and GND lines should be sufficiently wide to minimize
impedance. If the impedance of these lines is high, there is a chance
to pick up noise or malfunction.
