LP3856-ADJ 3A Fast Response Ultra Low Dropout Linear Regulators  
Check for Samples: LP3856-ADJ

FEATURES  
DESCRIPTION  
The LP3856-ADJ fast ultra low-dropout linear  
regulators operate from a +2.5V to +7.0V input  
supply. These ultra low dropout linear regulators  
respond very quickly to step changes in load, which  
makes them suitable for low voltage microprocessor  
applications. The LP3856-ADJ is developed on a  
CMOS process which allows low quiescent current  
operation independent of output load current. This  
CMOS process also allows the LP3856-ADJ to  
operate under extremely low dropout conditions.

(1) Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating ratings indicate conditions for which  
the device is intended to be functional, but does not ensure specific performance limits. For specifications and test conditions, see  
Electrical Characteristics. The specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade  
when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions.  
(2) The human body model is a 100pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5kresistor into each pin.  
(3) At elevated temperatures, devices must be derated based on package thermal resistance. The devices in TO-220 package must be  
derated at θjA = 50°C/W (with 0.5in2, 1oz. copper area), junction-to-ambient (with no heat sink). The devices in the DDPAK/TO-263  
surface-mount package must be derated at θjA = 60°C/W (with 0.5in2, 1oz. copper area), junction-to-ambient. See Application Hints.  
(4) If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output must be diode-clamped to ground.  
(5) The output PMOS structure contains a diode between the VIN and VOUT terminals. This diode is normally reverse biased. This diode will  
get forward biased if the voltage at the output terminal is forced to be higher than the voltage at the input terminal. This diode can  
typically withstand 200mA of DC current and 1Amp of peak current.

(1) Typical numbers are at 25°C and represent the most likely parametric norm.  
(2) Limits are verified by testing, design, or statistical correlation.  
(3) Output voltage line regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in the input line voltage.  
Output voltage load regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in load current.  
(4) Dropout voltage is defined as the minimum input to output differential voltage at which the output drops 2% below the nominal value.  
Dropout voltage specification applies only to output voltages of 2.5V and above. For output voltages below 2.5V, the drop-out voltage is  
nothing but the input to output differential, since the minimum input voltage is 2.5V.

Application Hints  
SETTING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE  
The output voltage is set using the resistors R1 and R2 (see Typical Application Circuit). The output is also  
dependent on the reference voltage (typically 1.216V) which is measured at the ADJ pin. The output voltage is  
given by the equation:  
VOUT = VADJ x ( 1 + R1 / R2)  
(1)  
This equation does not include errors due to the bias current flowing in the ADJ pin which is typically about 10  
nA. This error term is negligible for most applications. If R1 is > 100k, a small error may be introduced by the  
ADJ bias current.  
The tolerance of the external resistors used contributes a significant error to the output voltage accuracy, with 1%  
resistors typically adding a total error of approximately 1.4% to the output voltage (this error is in addition to the  
tolerance of the reference voltage at VADJ).  
TURN-ON CHARACTERISTICS FOR OUTPUT VOLTAGES PROGRAMMED TO 2.0V OR BELOW  
As Vin increases during start-up, the regulator output will track the input until Vin reaches the minimum operating  
voltage (typically about 2.2V). For output voltages programmed to 2.0V or below, the regulator output may  
momentarily exceed its programmed output voltage during start up. Outputs programmed to voltages above 2.0V  
are not affected by this behavior.  
EXTERNAL CAPACITORS  
Like any low-dropout regulator, external capacitors are required to assure stability. these capacitors must be  
correctly selected for proper performance.  
INPUT CAPACITOR: An input capacitor of at least 10µF is required. Ceramic or Tantalum may be used, and  
capacitance may be increased without limit  
OUTPUT CAPACITOR: An output capacitor is required for loop stability. It must be located less than 1 cm from  
the device and connected directly to the output and ground pins using traces which have no other currents  
flowing through them (see PCB Layout section).  
The minimum amount of output capacitance that can be used for stable operation is 10µF. For general usage  
across all load currents and operating conditions, the part was characterized using a 10µF Tantalum input  
capacitor. The minimum and maximum stable ESR range for the output capacitor was then measured which kept  
the device stable, assuming any output capacitor whose value is greater than 10µF (see Figure 25 below).

It should be noted that it is possible to operate the part with an output capacitor whose ESR is below these limits,  
assuming that sufficient ceramic input capacitance is provided. This will allow stable operation using ceramic  
output capacitors (see next section).

OPERATION WITH CERAMIC OUTPUT CAPACITORS  
LP385X voltage regulators can operate with ceramic output capacitors if the values of input and output  
capacitors are selected appropriately. The total ceramic output capacitance must be equal to or less than a  
specified maximum value in order for the regulator to remain stable over all operating conditions. This maximum  
amount of ceramic output capacitance is dependent upon the amount of ceramic input capacitance used as well  
as the load current of the application. This relationship is shown in Figure 26, which graphs the maximum stable  
value of ceramic output capacitance as a function of ceramic input capacitance for load currents of 1A, 2A, and  
3A. For example, if the maximum load current is 1A, a 10µF ceramic input capacitor will allow stable operation  
for values of ceramic output capacitance from 10µF up to about 500µF.

OUTPUT CAPACITANCE (mF)  
Figure 26. Maximum Ceramic Output Capacitance vs Ceramic Input Capacitance  
If the maximum load current is 2A and a 10µF ceramic input capacitor is used, the regulator will be stable with  
ceramic output capacitor values from 10µF up to about 50µF. At 3A of load current, the ratio of input to output  
capacitance required approaches 1:1, meaning that whatever amount of ceramic output capacitance is used  
must also be provided at the input for stable operation. For load currents between 1A, 2A, and 3A, interpolation  
may be used to approximate values on the graph. When calculating the total ceramic output capacitance present  
in an application, it is necessary to include any ceramic bypass capacitors connected to the regulator output.  
CFF (Feed Forward Capacitor)  
The capacitor CFF is required to add phase lead and help improve loop compensation. The correct amount of  
capacitance depends on the value selected for R1 (see Typical Application Circuit). The capacitor should be  
selected such that the zero frequency as given by the equation shown below is approximately 45 kHz:  
Fz = 45,000 = 1 / ( 2 x π x R1 x CFF  
)
(2)  
A good quality ceramic with X5R or X7R dielectric should be used for this capacitor.  
SELECTING A CAPACITOR  
It is important to note that capacitance tolerance and variation with temperature must be taken into consideration  
when selecting a capacitor so that the minimum required amount of capacitance is provided over the full  
operating temperature range. In general, a good Tantalum capacitor will show very little capacitance variation  
with temperature, but a ceramic may not be as good (depending on dielectric type). Aluminum electrolytics also  
typically have large temperature variation of capacitance value.  
Equally important to consider is a capacitor's ESR change with temperature: this is not an issue with ceramics,  
as their ESR is extremely low. However, it is very important in Tantalum and aluminum electrolytic capacitors.  
Both show increasing ESR at colder temperatures, but the increase in aluminum electrolytic capacitors is so  
severe they may not be feasible for some applications (see Capacitor Characteristics Section).  
CAPACITOR CHARACTERISTICS  
CERAMIC: For values of capacitance in the 10 to 100 µF range, ceramics are usually larger and more costly  
than tantalums but give superior AC performance for bypassing high frequency noise because of very low ESR  
(typically less than 10 m). However, some dielectric types do not have good capacitance characteristics as a  
function of voltage and temperature.

SNVS243E SEPTEMBER 2003REVISED APRIL 2013  
Z5U and Y5V dielectric ceramics have capacitance that drops severely with applied voltage. A typical Z5U or  
Y5V capacitor can lose 60% of its rated capacitance with half of the rated voltage applied to it. The Z5U and Y5V  
also exhibit a severe temperature effect, losing more than 50% of nominal capacitance at high and low limits of  
the temperature range.  
X7R and X5R dielectric ceramic capacitors are strongly recommended if ceramics are used, as they typically  
maintain a capacitance range within ±20% of nominal over full operating ratings of temperature and voltage. Of  
course, they are typically larger and more costly than Z5U/Y5U types for a given voltage and capacitance.  
TANTALUM: Solid Tantalum capacitors are typically recommended for use on the output because their ESR is  
very close to the ideal value required for loop compensation.  
Tantalums also have good temperature stability: a good quality Tantalum will typically show a capacitance value  
that varies less than 10-15% across the full temperature range of 125°C to 40°C. ESR will vary only about 2X  
going from the high to low temperature limits.  
The increasing ESR at lower temperatures can cause oscillations when marginal quality capacitors are used (if  
the ESR of the capacitor is near the upper limit of the stability range at room temperature).  
ALUMINUM: This capacitor type offers the most capacitance for the money. The disadvantages are that they are  
larger in physical size, not widely available in surface mount, and have poor AC performance (especially at  
higher frequencies) due to higher ESR and ESL.  
Compared by size, the ESR of an aluminum electrolytic is higher than either Tantalum or ceramic, and it also  
varies greatly with temperature. A typical aluminum electrolytic can exhibit an ESR increase of as much as 50X  
when going from 25°C down to 40°C.  
It should also be noted that many aluminum electrolytics only specify impedance at a frequency of 120 Hz, which  
indicates they have poor high frequency performance. Only aluminum electrolytics that have an impedance  
specified at a higher frequency (between 20 kHz and 100 kHz) should be used for the LP385X. Derating must be  
applied to the manufacturer's ESR specification, since it is typically only valid at room temperature.  
Any applications using aluminum electrolytics should be thoroughly tested at the lowest ambient operating  
temperature where ESR is maximum.  
PCB LAYOUT  
Good PC layout practices must be used or instability can be induced because of ground loops and voltage drops.  
The input and output capacitors must be directly connected to the input, output, and ground pins of the LP3856-  
ADJ using traces which do not have other currents flowing in them (Kelvin connect).  
The best way to do this is to lay out CIN and COUT near the device with short traces to the VIN, VOUT, and ground  
pins. The regulator ground pin should be connected to the external circuit ground so that the regulator and its  
capacitors have a "single point ground".  
It should be noted that stability problems have been seen in applications where "vias" to an internal ground plane  
were used at the ground points of the IC and the input and output capacitors. This was caused by varying ground  
potentials at these nodes resulting from current flowing through the ground plane. Using a single point ground  
technique for the regulator and it's capacitors fixed the problem.  
Since high current flows through the traces going into VIN and coming from VOUT, Kelvin connect the capacitor  
leads to these pins so there is no voltage drop in series with the input and output capacitors.  
RFI/EMI SUSCEPTIBILITY  
RFI (radio frequency interference) and EMI (electromagnetic interference) can degrade any integrated circuit's  
performance because of the small dimensions of the geometries inside the device. In applications where circuit  
sources are present which generate signals with significant high frequency energy content (> 1 MHz), care must  
be taken to ensure that this does not affect the IC regulator.  
If RFI/EMI noise is present on the input side of the regulator (such as applications where the input source comes  
from the output of a switching regulator), good ceramic bypass capacitors must be used at the input pin of the IC.

If a load is connected to the IC output which switches at high speed (such as a clock), the high-frequency current  
pulses required by the load must be supplied by the capacitors on the IC output. Since the bandwidth of the  
regulator loop is less than 100 kHz, the control circuitry cannot respond to load changes above that frequency.  
The means the effective output impedance of the IC at frequencies above 100 kHz is determined only by the  
output capacitor(s).  
In applications where the load is switching at high speed, the output of the IC may need RF isolation from the  
load. It is recommended that some inductance be placed between the output capacitor and the load, and good  
RF bypass capacitors be placed directly across the load.  
PCB layout is also critical in high noise environments, since RFI/EMI is easily radiated directly into PC traces.  
Noisy circuitry should be isolated from "clean" circuits where possible, and grounded through a separate path. At  
MHz frequencies, ground planes begin to look inductive and RFI/EMI can cause ground bounce across the  
ground plane.  
In multi-layer PCB applications, care should be taken in layout so that noisy power and ground planes do not  
radiate directly into adjacent layers which carry analog power and ground.  
OUTPUT NOISE  
Noise is specified in two ways:  
Spot Noise or Output noise density is the RMS sum of all noise sources, measured at the regulator output, at  
a specific frequency (measured with a 1Hz bandwidth). This type of noise is usually plotted on a curve as a  
function of frequency.  
Total output Noise or Broad-band noise is the RMS sum of spot noise over a specified bandwidth, usually  
several decades of frequencies.  
Attention should be paid to the units of measurement. Spot noise is measured in units µV/Hz or nV/Hz and  
total output noise is measured in µV(rms).  
The primary source of noise in low-dropout regulators is the internal reference. In CMOS regulators, noise has a  
low frequency component and a high frequency component, which depend strongly on the silicon area and  
quiescent current. Noise can be reduced in two ways: by increasing the transistor area or by increasing the  
current drawn by the internal reference. Increasing the area will decrease the chance of fitting the die into a  
smaller package. Increasing the current drawn by the internal reference increases the total supply current  
(ground pin current). Using an optimized trade-off of ground pin current and die size, LP3856-ADJ achieves low  
noise performance and low quiescent current operation.  
The total output noise specification for LP3856-ADJ is presented in the Electrical Characteristics table. The  
Output noise density at different frequencies is represented by a curve under typical performance characteristics.  
SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION  
The LP3856-ADJ is short circuit protected and in the event of a peak over-current condition, the short-circuit  
control loop will rapidly drive the output PMOS pass element off. Once the power pass element shuts down, the  
control loop will rapidly cycle the output on and off until the average power dissipation causes the thermal  
shutdown circuit to respond to servo the on/off cycling to a lower frequency. Please refer to the section on  
thermal information for power dissipation calculations.  
SHUTDOWN OPERATION  
A CMOS Logic low level signal at the Shutdown ( SD) pin will turn-off the regulator. Pin SD must be actively  
terminated through a 10kpull-up resistor for a proper operation. If this pin is driven from a source that actively  
pulls high and low (such as a CMOS rail to rail comparator), the pull-up resistor is not required. This pin must be  
tied to Vin if not used.  
The Shutdown ( SD) pin threshold has no voltage hysteresis. If the Shutdown pin is actively driven, the voltage  
transition must rise and fall cleanly and promptly.

SNVS243E SEPTEMBER 2003REVISED APRIL 2013  
DROPOUT VOLTAGE  
The dropout voltage of a regulator is defined as the minimum input-to-output differential required to stay within  
2% of the nominal output voltage. For CMOS LDOs, the dropout voltage is the product of the load current and  
the Rds(on) of the internal MOSFET.  
REVERSE CURRENT PATH  
The internal MOSFET in LP3856-ADJ has an inherent parasitic diode. During normal operation, the input voltage  
is higher than the output voltage and the parasitic diode is reverse biased. However, if the output is pulled above  
the input in an application, then current flows from the output to the input as the parasitic diode gets forward  
biased. The output can be pulled above the input as long as the current in the parasitic diode is limited to 200mA  
continuous and 1A peak.  
POWER DISSIPATION/HEATSINKING  
The LP3856-ADJ can deliver a continuous current of 3A over the full operating temperature range. A heatsink  
may be required depending on the maximum power dissipation and maximum ambient temperature of the  
application. Under all possible conditions, the junction temperature must be within the range specified under  
operating conditions. The total power dissipation of the device is given by:  
PD = (VINVOUT)IOUT+ (VIN)IGND  
(3)  
where IGND is the operating ground current of the device (specified under Electrical Characteristics).  
The maximum allowable temperature rise (TRmax) depends on the maximum ambient temperature (TAmax) of the  
application, and the maximum allowable junction temperature (TJmax):  
TRmax = TJmaxTAmax  
(4)  
The maximum allowable value for junction to ambient Thermal Resistance, θJA, can be calculated using the  
formula:  
θJA = TRmax / PD  
(5)  
LP3856-ADJ is available in TO-220 and DDPAK/TO-263 packages. The thermal resistance depends on amount  
of copper area or heat sink, and on air flow. If the maximum allowable value of θJA calculated above is 60 °C/W  
for TO-220 package and 60 °C/W for DDPAK/TO-263 package no heatsink is needed since the package can  
dissipate enough heat to satisfy these requirements. If the value for allowable θJA falls below these limits, a heat  
sink is required.  
HEATSINKING TO-220 PACKAGE  
The thermal resistance of a TO-220 package can be reduced by attaching it to a heat sink or a copper plane on  
a PC board. If a copper plane is to be used, the values of θJA will be same as shown in next section for  
DDPAK/TO-263 package.  
The heatsink to be used in the application should have a heatsink to ambient thermal resistance,  
θHA≤ θJA − θCH − θJC  
.
(6)  
In this equation, θCH is the thermal resistance from the case to the surface of the heat sink and θJC is the thermal  
resistance from the junction to the surface of the case. θJC is about 3°C/W for a TO-220 package. The value for  
θCH depends on method of attachment, insulator, etc. θCH varies between 1.5°C/W to 2.5°C/W. If the exact value  
is unknown, 2°C/W can be assumed.  
HEATSINKING DDPAK/TO-263 PACKAGE  
The DDPAK/TO-263 package uses the copper plane on the PCB as a heatsink. The tab of these packages are  
soldered to the copper plane for heat sinking. Figure 27 shows a curve for the θJA of DDPAK/TO-263 package for  
different copper area sizes, using a typical PCB with 1 ounce copper and no solder mask over the copper area  
for heat sinking.

Figure 27. θJA vs Copper (1 Ounce) Area for DDPAK/TO-263 Package  
As shown in the figure, increasing the copper area beyond 1 square inch produces very little improvement. The  
minimum value for θJA for the DDPAK/TO-263 package mounted to a PCB is 32°C/W.  
Figure 28 shows the maximum allowable power dissipation for DDPAK/TO-263 packages for different ambient  
temperatures, assuming θJA is 35°C/W and the maximum junction temperature is 125°C.
