DESCRIPTION
The UCC381-3/-5/-ADJ family of positive linear series pass regulators is
tailored for low drop out applications where low quiescent power is impor
tant. Fabricated with a BiCMOS technology ideally suited for low input to
output differential applications, the UCC381 will pass 1A while requiring
only 0.5V of input voltage headroom. Dropout voltage decreases linearly
with output current, so that dropout at 200mA is less than 100mV. Quies
cent current is always less than 650µA. To prevent reverse current conduc
tion, on-chip circuitry limits the minimum forward voltage to typically 50mV.
Once the forward voltage limit is reached, the input-output differential volt
age is maintained as the input voltage drops until undervoltage lockout dis
ables the regulator.
UCC381-3 and UCC381-5 versions have on-chip resistor networks preset
to regulate either 3.3V or 5.0V, respectively. Furthermore, remote sensing
of the load voltage is possible by connecting the VOUTS pin directly at the
load. The output voltage is then regulated to 1.5% at room temperature and
better than 2.5% over temperature. The UCC381-ADJ version has a regu
lated output voltage programmed by an external user-definable resistor ratio.

DESCRIPTION (cont.)
Short circuit current is internally limited. The device re
sponds to a sustained overcurrent condition by turning
off after a T
riod, T
OFF
then begins pulsing on and off at the T
duty cycle of 3%. This drastically reduces the power dissipation during short circuit such that heat sinking, if at all
required, must only accommodate normal operation. On
the fixed output versions of the device T
400µs − a guaranteed minimum. On the adjustable version an external capacitor sets the on time. The off time
is always 32 times T
delay. The device then stays off for a pe
ON
, that is 32 times the TONdelay. The device

The UCC381 can be shutdown to 25µA (max) by pulling
the CT pin low.
Internal power dissipation is further controlled with ther
mal overload protection circuitry. Thermal shutdown oc

curs if the junction temperature exceeds 165°C. The chip
will remain off until the temperature has dropped 20°C.
The UCC281 series is specified for operation over the industrial range of −40°Cto+85°C, and the UCC381 se-
ries is specified from 0°Cto+70°C. These devices are
available in the 8 pin DP surface mount power package.
For other packaging options consult the factory.
