description
The TL-SCSI285 is a low-dropout (0.7-V)
fixed-voltage regulator specifically designed for
small computer systems interface (SCSI)
alternative 2 active signal termination. The
TL-SCSI285 0.7-V maximum dropout ensures
compatibility with existing SCSI systems, while
providing a wide TERMPWR voltage range. At the
same time, the ±1% initial tolerance on its 2.85-V
output voltage ensures a tighter line-driver current
tolerance, thereby increasing the system noise
margin.
The fixed 2.85-V output voltage of the TL-SCSI285 supports the SCSI alternative 2 termination standard, while
reducing system power consumption. The 0.7-V maximum dropout voltage brings increased TERMPWR
isolation, making the device ideal for battery-powered systems. The TL-SCSI285, with internal current limiting,
overvoltage protection, ESD protection, and thermal protection, offers designers enhanced system protection
and reliability .
When configured as a SCSI active terminator, the TL-SCSI285 low-dropout regulator eliminates the 220-Ω and
the 330-Ω resistors required for each transmission line with a passive termination scheme, reducing significantly
the continuous system power drain. When placed in series with 110-Ω resistors, the device matches the
impedance level of the transmission cable and eliminates reflections.
The TL-SCSI285 is characterized for operation over the virtual junction temperature range of 0°C to 125°C.

†
Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES: 1. Maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max),
θ
JA
, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any allowable
ambient temperature is PD = (TJ(max) – TA)/
θ
JA
. Operating at the absolute maximum TJ of 150°C can impact reliability. Due to
variations in individual device electrical characteristics and thermal resistance, the built-in thermal overload protection may be
activated at power levels slightly above or below the rated dissipation.
2. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51, except for through-hole packages, which use a trace
length of zero.

‡
Pulse-testing techniques are used to maintain the virtual junction temperature as close to the ambient temperature as possible. Thermal effects
must be taken into account separately. All characteristics are measured with a 0.1-µF capacitor across the input and a 22.0-µF tantalum capacitor
with equivalent series resistance of 1.5 Ω on the output.
