Using a capacitor whose value is > 1F on the RT9193 input and the amount of capacitance can be increased without limit. The input capacitor must be located a distance of not more than 0.5 inch from the input pin of the IC and returned to a clean analog ground. Any good quality ceramic or tantalum can be used for this capacitor. The capacitor with larger value and lower ESR (equivalent series resistance) provides better PSRR and line-transient response. The output capacitor must meet both requirements for minimum amount of capacitance and ESR in all LDOs application. The RT9193 is designed specifically to work with low ESR ceramic output capacitor in space-saving and performance consideration. Using a ceramic capacitor whose value is at least 1F with ESR is > 25m on the RT9193 output ensures stability. The RT9193 still works well with output capacitor of other types due to the wide stable ESR range. Figure 1 shows the curves of allowable ESR range as a function of load current for various output capacitor values. Output capacitor of larger capacitance can reduce noise and improve load transient response, stability, and PSRR. The output capacitor should be located not more than 0.5 inch from the VOUT pin of the RT9193 and returned to a clean analog ground. Region of Stable COUT ESR vs. Load Current 100.00 100 Instable C OUT ESR () Stable 0.01 Simulation Verify 100 The RT9193 features an LDO regulator enable/disable function. To assure the LDO regulator will switch on, the EN turn on control level must be greater than 1.2 volts. The LDO regulator will go into the shutdown mode when the voltage on the EN pin falls below 0.4 volts. For to protecting the system, the RT9193 have a quick-discharge function. If the enable function is not needed in a specific application, it may be tied to VIN to keep the LDO regulator in a continuously on state. Thermal Considerations Thermal protection limits power dissipation in RT9193. When the operation junction temperature exceeds 165C, the OTP circuit starts the thermal shutdown function turn the pass element off. The pass element turn on again after the junction temperature cools by 30C. For continue operation, do not exceed absolute maximum operation junction temperature 125C. The power dissipation definition in device is : PD(MAX) = ( TJ(MAX) - TA ) /JA RT9193-15CU5 CIN = COUT = 1uF, X7R 0.00 50 Enable Function The maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of IC package, PCB layout, the rate of surroundings airflow and temperature difference between junction to ambient. The maximum power dissipation can be calculated by following formula : 1 1.00 0 Connecting a 22nF between the BP pin and GND pin significantly reduces noise on the regulator output, it is critical that the capacitor connection between the BP pin and GND pin be direct and PCB traces should be as short as possible. There is a relationship between the bypass capacitor value and the LDO regulator turn on time. DC leakage on this pin can affect the LDO regulator output noise and voltage regulation performance.

Figure 1 www.richtek.com 8 DS9193-09 March 2007 RT9193 For recommended operating conditions specification of RT9193, where T J(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature of the die (125C) and TA is the maximum ambient temperature. The junction to ambient thermal resistance (JA is layout dependent) for SOT-23-5 package is 250C/W, SC-70-5 package is 333C/W and WDFN-6L 2x2 package is 165C/W on standard JEDEC 51-3 thermal test board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25C can be calculated by following formula : PD(MAX) = (125C-25C) / 333 = 300mW (SC-70-5) PD(MAX) = (125C-25C) / 250 = 400mW (SOT-23-5) PD(MAX) = (125C-25C) / 165 = 606mW (WDFN-6L 2x2) The maximum power dissipation depends on operating ambient temperature for fixed T J(MAX) and thermal resistance JA. For RT9193 packages, the Figure 2 of derating curves allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient temperature on the maximum power allowed. 700 Power Dissipation (mW) WDFN-6L 2x2 600 500 SOT-23-5 400 SC 70-5 300 200 100 0 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 Ambient Temperature (C) Figure 2.
