The LD39080 is a fast ultra low drop linear
regulator which operates from 2.5V to 6V input
supply.
A wide range of output options are available. The
low drop voltage, low noise, and ultra low
quiescent current make it suitable for low voltage
microprocessor and memory applications. The
device is developed on a BiCMOS process which
allows low quiescent current operation
independently of output load current.

Application notesLD39080
7 Application notes
7.1 External capacitors
The LD39080 requires external capacitors for regulator stability. These capacitors must be
selected to meet the requirements of minimum capacitance and equivalent series resistance

Figure 17. Figure 18.
the relative pins and connected directly to the input/output ground pins using traces which
have no other currents flowing through them. Any good quality of Ceramic or Electrolytic
capacitors can be used.
7.2 Input capacitor
An input capacitor whose minimum value is 1µF is required with the LD39080 (amount of
capacitance can be increased without limit). This capacitor must be located a distance of not
more than 1cm from the input pin of the device and returned to a clean analog ground. Any
good quality ceramic, tantalum or film capacitors can be used for this capacitor.
). The input/output capacitors must be located less than 1cm from
7.3 Output capacitor
It is possible to use Ceramic or Tantalum capacitors but the output capacitor must meet the
requirement for minimum amount of capacitance and E.S.R. (equivalent series resistance)
value. A minimum capacitance of 2.2µF is a good choice to guarantee the stability of the
regulator. Anyway, other C

7.4 Thermal note
The output capacitor must maintain its ESR in the stable region over the full operating
temperature range to assure stability. Also, capacitors tolerance and variation with
temperature must be kept in consideration in order to assure the minimum amount of
capacitance at all times.
7.5 Inhibit input operation
The inhibit pin can be used to turn OFF the regulator when pulled down, so drastically
reducing the current consumption down to less than 1µA. When the inhibit feature is not
used, this pin must be tied to V
