HIP5600
Thermally Protected High Voltage Linear
Regulator
The HIP5600 is an adjustable 3-terminal positive linear
voltage regulator capable of operating up to either 400VDC
or 280VRMS. The output voltage is adjustable from 1.2VDC
to within 50V of the peak input voltage with two external
resistors. This high voltage linear regulator is capable of
sourcing 1mA to 30mA with proper heat sinking. The
HIP5600 can also provide 40mA peak (typical) for short
periods of time.
Protection is provided by the on chip thermal shutdown and
output current limiting circuitry. The HIP5600 has a unique
advantage over other high voltage linear regulators due to its
ability to withstand input to output voltages as high as
400V(peak), a condition that could exist under output short
circuit conditions.
Common linear regulator configurations can be implemented
as well as AC/DC conversion and start-up circuits for switch
mode power supplies.
The HIP5600 requires a minimum output capacitor of 10µF
for stability of the output and may require a 0.02µF input
decoupling capacitor depending on the source impedance. It
also requires a minimum load current of 1mA to maintain
output voltage regulation.
All protection circuitry remains fully functional even if the
adjustment terminal is disconnected. However, if this
happens the output voltage will approach the input voltage.

Application Information
Introduction
In many electronic systems the components operate at 3V to
15V but the system obtains power from a high voltage
source (AC or DC). When the current requirements are
small, less than 10mA, a linear regulator may be the best
supply provided that it is easy to design in, reliable, low cost
and compact. The HIP5600 is similar to other 3 terminal reg-
ulators but operates from much higher voltages. It protects
its load from surges +250V above its 400V operating input
voltage and has short circuit current limiting and thermal
shutdown self protection features.
Output Voltage
The HIP5600 provides a temperature independent 1.18V
reference, VREF, between the output and the adjustment
terminal (VREF =V
OUT -V
ADJ). This constant reference
voltage is impressed across RF1 (see Figure 2) and results
in a constant current (I1) that flows through RF2 to ground.
The voltage across RF2 is the product of its resistance and
the sum of I1and IADJ. The output voltage is given in Equa-
tions 1(A, B).
(EQ. 1A)
(EQ. 1B)
Equations 2(A,B,C) are provided to determine the worst
case output voltage in relation to; manufacturing tolerances
(VREF and IREF),% tolerance in external resistors
(RF1/RF1, RF2/RF2), load regulation (VREF LOAD REG,
IADJ LOAD REG), line regulation (VREF LINE REG) and the
effects of temperature (VREFTC, IREFTC), which includes
self heating (θSA).
FIGURE 2.
Example: Given: VIN = 200VDC,V
OUT = 15V, IOUT =
2mA to 12mA
SA =10
oC/W, RF1 = 1.1k5% low, RF2 =
12k5% high, IOUT equals 10mA and Temp equals
+60oC (ambient temperature +25oCto+85
oC). The worst
case VOUT for the given conditions is -1.13V. The shift in
VOUT is attributed to the following: -1.55V manufacturing tol-
erances, +1.33V external resistors, -0.62V load regulation
and -0.29V temperature effects.
Regulator With Zener
FIGURE 3.
The output voltage can be set by using a zener diode (Figure
3) instead of the resistor divider shown in Figure 2. The
zener diode improves the ripple rejection ratio and reduces
the value of the worst case output voltage, as illustrated in
the example to follow. The bias current of the zener diode is
set by the value of RF1 and IADJ.
The regulator / zener diode becomes an attractive solution if
ripple rejection or the worst case tolerance of the output volt-
age is critical (i.e. one zener diode cost less than one 10µF
capacitor (C3) and one 1/4W resistor RF2). Minimum power
dissipation is possible by reducing I1current, with little effect
on the output voltage regulation. The output voltage is given
in Equation 3.
Equations 4(A,B,C) are provided to determine the worst
case output voltage in relation to; manufacturing tolerances

of HIP5600 and the zener diode (VREF and Vz), load reg-
ulation of the HIP5600 (VREF LOAD REG), and the effects of
temperature on the HIP5600 and the zener diode (VREFTC,
VZTC).
Example: Given: VIN = 200V, VOUT = 14.18V (VREF =
1.18V, VZ= 13V), VZ= 5%, VZTC =+0.079%C(assumes
1N5243BPH),∆IOUT equal 10mA and Temp equal +60oC.
The worst case VOUT is 0.4956V. The shift in VOUT is
attributed to the following: -0.2 (HIP5600) and 0.69 (zener
diode).
The regulator/zener diode configuration gives a 3.5%
(0.49/14.18) worst case output voltage error where, for the
same conditions, the regulator/resistor configuration results
in an 7.5% (1.129/15) worst case output voltage error.
External Capacitors
A minimum10µF output capacitor (C2) is required for stability
of the output stage. Any increase of the load capacitance
greater than 10µF will merely improve the loop stability and
output impedance.
A 0.02µF input decoupling capacitor (C1) between VIN and
ground may be required if the power source impedance is
not sufficiently low for the 1MHz - 10MHz band. Without this
capacitor, the HIP5600 can oscillate at 2.5MHz when driven
by a power source with a high impedance for the 1MHz -
10MHz band.
An optional bypass capacitor (C3) from VADJ to ground
improves the ripple rejection by preventing the ripple at the
Adjust pin from being amplified. Bypass capacitors larger
than 10µF do not appreciably improve the ripple rejection of
the part (see Figure 20 through Figure 25).
Load Regulation
For improved load regulation, resistor RF1 (connected
between the adjustment terminal and VOUT) should be tied
directly to the output of the regulator (Figure 4A) rather than
near the load Figure 4B. This eliminates line drops (RS) from
appearing effectively in series with RF1 and degrading regu-
lation. For example, a 15V regulator with a 0.05resistance
between the regulator and the load will have a load regula-
tion due to line resistance of 0.05xIL. If RF1 is con-
nected near the load the effective load regulation will be 11.9
times worse (1+R2/R1, where R2 = 12k, R1 = 1.1k).
FIGURE 4.
Protection Diodes
The HIP5600, unlike other voltage regulators, is internally
protected by input diodes in the event the input becomes
shorted to ground. Therefore, no external protection diode is
required between the input pin and the output pin to protect
against the output capacitor (C2) discharging through the
input to ground.
If the output is shorted in the absence of D1 (Figure 5), the
bypass capacitor voltage (C3) could exceed the absolute
maximum voltage rating of ±5V between VOUT and VIN.
Note; No protection diode (D1) is needed for output voltages
less than 6V or if C3 is not used.
FIGURE 5. REGULATOR WITH PROTECTION DIODE
Selecting the Right Heat Sink
Linear power supplies can dissipate a lot of power. This
power or heat must be safely dissipated to permit continuous
operation. This section will discuss thermal resistance and
show how to calculate heat sink requirements.
Electronic heat sinks are generally rated by their thermal
resistance. Thermal resistance is defined as the temperature
rise per unit of heat transfer or power dissipated, and is
expressed in units of degrees centigrade per watt. For a par-
ticular application determine the thermal resistance (θSA)
which the heat sink must have in order to maintain a junction
temperature below the thermal shut down limit (TTS).

A thermal network that describes the heat flow from the inte-
grated circuit to the ambient air is shown in Figure 6. The
basic relation for thermal resistance from the IC surface, his-
torically called “junction”, to ambient (θJA) is given in Equa-
tion 5. The thermal resistance of the heat sink (θSA)to
maintain a desired junction temperature is calculated using
Equation 6.

The resistance of the heat sink to the ambient air.
Varies with air flow.
TA = Ambient Temperature
P = The power dissipated by the HIP5600 in watts.
P = (VIN - VOUT)(IOUT)
Worst case θSA is calculated using the minimum TTS of
+127oC in Equation 6.
Example,
Given: VIN = 400VDC VOUT = 15V ILOAD = 15mA
θJC = 4.8oC/W TTS = +127οC I
ADJ = 80µA
TA = +50oC RF1 = 1.1k
VREF = 1.18V P = 6.2W = (VIN - VOUT)(IIN)
Find: Proper heat sink to keep the junction temperature
of the HIP5600 from exceeding TTS (+127oC).
Solution: Use Equation 6,
The selection of a heat sink with θSA less than +7.62oC/W
would ensure that the junction temperature would not
exceed the thermal shut down temperature (TTS) of +127oC.
A Thermalloy P/N7023 at 6.2W power dissipation would
meet this requirement with a θSA of +5.7oC/W.
Operation Without A Heatsink
The package has a θJA of +60oC/W. This allows 0.7W
power dissipation at +85oC in still air. Mounting the HIP5600
to a printed circuit board (see Figure 39 through Figure 41)
decreases the thermal impedance sufficiently to allow about
1.6W of power dissipation at +85oC in still air.
Thermal Transient Operation
For applications such as start-up, the HIP5600 in the TO-220
package can operate at several watts -without a heat sink-
f or a period of time bef ore going into thermal shutdown.

junction. With no heat sink CSequals zero and θSA equals the
difference between θJA and θJC. The following equations pre-
dict the transient junction temperature and the time to thermal
shutdown for ambient temperatures up to +85oC and power
levels up to 8W. The output current limit temperature coeffi-
cient (Figure 39) precludes continuous operation above 8W.
For the TO-220, CPis 0.9Ws to 1.1Ws per degree compared
to about 2.6mWs per degree for the integrated circuit and CS
is 0.9Ws per degree per gram for aluminum heat sinks.
Figure 8 shows the time to thermal shutdown versus power
dissipation for a part in +22oC still air and at various elevated
ambient temperatures with a θSA of +27oC/W from forced air
flow.
For the shorter shutdown times, the θSA value is not impor-
tant but the thermal capacitances are. A more accurate
equation for the transient silicon surface temperature can be
derived from the model shown in Figure 7. Due to the distrib-
uted nature of the package thermal capacitance, the second
time constant is 1.7 times larger than expected.

Thermal Shutdown Hysteresis
Figure 9 shows the HIP5600 thermal hysteresis curve with
VIN = 100VDC,V
OUT = 5V and IOUT = 10mA. Hysteresis is
added to the thermal shutdown circuit to prevent oscillations
as the junction temperature approaches the thermal shut-
down limit. The thermal shutdown is reset when the input
voltage is removed, goes negative (i.e. AC operation) or
when the part cools down.
FIGURE 9. THERMAL HYSTERESIS CURVE
AC to DC Operation
Since the HIP5600 has internal high voltage diodes in series
with its input, it can be connected directly to an AC power
line. This is an improvement over typical low current supplies
constructed from a high voltage diode and voltage dropping
resistor to bias a low voltage zener. The HIP5600 provides
better line and load regulation, better efficiency and heat

transfer. The latter because the TO-220 package permits
easy heat sinking.
The efficiency of either supply is approximately the DC
output voltage divided by the RMS input voltage. The
resistor value, in the typical low current supply, is chosen
such that for maximum load at minimum line voltage there is
some current flowing into the zener. This resistor value
results in excess power dissipation for lighter loads or higher
line voltages.
Using the circuit in Figure 3 with a 1000µF output capacitor
the HIP5600 only takes as much current from the power line
as the load requires. For light loads, the HIP5600 is even
more efficient due to it’s interaction with the output capacitor.
Immediately after the AC line goes positive, the HIP5600
tries to replace all the charge drained by the load during the
negative half cycle at a rate limited by the short circuit cur-
rent limit (see “A1” and “B1” Figure 10). Since most of this
charge is replaced before the input voltage reaches its RMS
value, the power dissipation for this charge is lower than it
would be if the charge were transferred at a uniform rate dur-
ing the cycle. When the product of the input voltage and cur-
rent is averaged over a cycle, the average power is less than
if the input current were constant. Figure 11 shows the
HIP5600 efficiency as a function of load current for 80VRMS
and 132VRMS inputs for a 15.6V output.
FIGURE 10. AC OPERATION
FIGURE 11. EFFICIENCY AS A FUNCTION OF LOAD CURRENT
Referring again to Figure 10, Curve “A1” shows the input
current for a 10mA output load and curve “B1” with a 3mA
output load. The input current spike just before the negative
going zero crossing occurs while the input voltage is less
than the minimum operating voltage but is so short it has no
detrimental effect. The input current also includes the charg-
ing current for the 0.02µF input decoupling capacitor C1.
The maximum load current cannot be greater than 1/2 of the
short circuit current because the HIP5600 only conducts over
1/2 of the line cycle. The short circuit current limit (Figure 38)
depends on the case temperature, which is a function of the
power dissipation. Figure 38 for a case temperature of
+100oC (i.e. no heat sink) indicates for AC operation the
maximum available output current is 10mA (1/2 x 20mA).
Operation from full wave rectified input will increase the
maximum output current to 20mA for the same +100oC case
temperature.
As a reminder, since the HIP5600 is off during the negative
half cycle, the output capacitor must be large enough to sup-
ply the maximum load current during this time with some
acceptable level of droop. Figure 10 also shows the output
ripple voltage, for both a 10mA and 3mA output loads “A2”
and “B2”, respectively.
Do’s And Don’ts
DC Operation
1. Do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings.
2. The HIP5600 requires a minimum output current of 1mA.
Minimum output current includes current through RF1.
Warning: If there is less than 1mA load current, the out-
put voltage will rise. If the possibility of no load exists,
RF1 should be sized to sink 1mA under these conditions.
3. Do not “HOT” switch the input voltage without protecting
the input voltage from exceeding ±650V. Note: induc-
tance from supplies and wires along with the 0.02µF
decoupling capacitor can form an under damped tank cir-
cuit that could result in voltages which exceed the maxi-
mum ±650V input voltage rating. Switch arcing can
further aggravate the effects of the source inductance
creating an over voltage condition.
Recommendation: Adequate protection means (such
as MOV, avalanche diode, surgector, etc.) may be
needed to clamp transients to within the ±650V input limit
of the HIP5600.
4. Do not operate the part with the input voltage below the
minimum 50VDC recommended. Low voltage opera-
tion: For input voltages between 0VDC and +5VDC noth-
ing happens (IOUT=0), for input voltages between
+5VDC and +35VDC there is not enough voltage for the
pass transistor to operate properly and therefore a high
frequency (2MHz) oscillation occurs. For input voltages
+35VDC to +50VDC proper operation can occur with
some parts.

5. Warning: the output voltage will approach the input volt-
age if the adjust pin is disconnected, resulting in perma-
nent damage to the low voltage output capacitor.
AC Operation
1. Do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings.
2. The HIP5600 requires a minimum output current of
0.5mA. Minimum output current includes current through
RF1. Warning: If there is less than 0.5mA output current,
the output voltage will rise. If the possibility of no load
exists, RF1 should be sized to sink 0.5mA under these
conditions.
3. If using a laboratory AC source (such as VARIACs or
step-up transformers, etc.) be aware that they contain
large inductances that can generate damaging high volt-
age transients when they are switched on or off.
Recommendations
(1) Preset VARIAC output voltage before applying power
to part.
(2) Adequate protection means (such as MOV, avalanche
diode, surgector, etc.) may be needed to clamp tran-
sients to within the ±650V input limit of the HIP5600.
4. Do not operate the part with the input voltage below the
minimum 50VRMS recommended. Low voltage opera-
tion similar to DC operation (reference step 4 under
DC operation).
5. Warning: the output voltage will approach the input volt-
age if the adjust pin is disconnected, resulting in perma-
nent damage to the low voltage output capacitor.
General Precautions
Instrumentation Effects
Background: Input to output parasitic impedances exist in
most test equipment power supplies. The inter-winding
capacitance of the transformer may result in substantial cur-
rent flow (mA) from the equipment power lines to the DC
ground of the HIP5600. This “ground loop” current can result
in erroneous measurements of the circuits performance and
in some cases lead to overstress of the HIP5600.
Recommendations for Evaluation of the HIP5600
in the Lab
a) The use of battery powered DVMs and scopes will elimi-
nate ground loops.
b) When connecting test equipment, locate grounds as
close to circuit ground as possible.
c) Input current measurements should be made with a non-
contact current probe.
If AC powered test equipment is used, then the use of an
isolated plug is recommended. The isolated plug eliminates
any voltage difference between earth ground and AC
ground. However, even though the earth ground is discon-
nected, ground loop currents can still flow through trans-
former of the test equipment. Ground loops can be
minimized by connecting the test equipment ground as
close to the circuit ground as possible.
CAUTION: Dangerous voltages may appear on exposed
metal surfaces of AC powered test equipment.
Application Circuits
FIGURE 12. DC/DC CONVERTER
The HIP5600 can be configured in most common DC linear
regulator applications circuits with an input voltage between
50VDC to 400VDC (above the output voltage) see Figure 12.
A10µF capacitor (C2) provides stabilization of the output
stage. Heat sinking may be required depending upon the
power dissipation. Normally, choose RF1 << VREF/IADJ.
FIGURE 13. AC/DC CONVERTER
The HIP5600 can operate from an AC voltage between
50VRMS to 280VRMS, see Figure 13. The combination of a
1k(2W) input resistor and a V275LA10B MOV provides
input surge protection up to 6kV 1.2 x 50µs oscillating and
pulse waveforms as defined in IEEE/ANSI C62.41.1980.
When operating from 120VAC, a V130LA10B MOV provides
protection without the 1k resistor.
The output capacitor is larger for operation from AC than DC
because the HIP5600 only conducts current during the posi-
tive half cycle of the AC line. The efficiency is approximately
equal to VOUT /VIN (RMS), see Figure 11.

The HIP5600 provides an efficient and economical solution
as a start-up supply for applications operating from either AC
(50VRMS to 280VRMS) or DC (50VDC to 400VDC).
FIGURE 14. START UP CIRCUIT
The HIP5600 has on chip thermal protection and output cur-
rent limiting circuitry. These features eliminate the need for
an in-line fuse and a large heat sink.
The HIP5600 can provide up to 40mA for short periods of time
to enable start up of a switch mode power supply‘s control cir-
cuit. The length of time that the HIP5600 will be on, prior to
thermal shutdown, is a function of the power dissipation in the
part, the amount of heat sinking (if any) and the ambient tem-
perature. For example; at 400VDC with no heat sink, it will pro-
vide 20mA f or about 8s , see Figure 8.
Power supply efficiency is improved by turning off the
HIP5600 when the SMPS is up and running. In this applica-
tion the output of the HIP5600 would be set via RF1 and RF2
to be about 9V. The tickler winding would be adjusted to about
12V to insure that the HIP5600 is kept off during normal oper-
ating conditions.The input current under these conditions is
appro ximately equal to IBIAS. (See Figure 27).
The HIP5600 can supply a 450µA(±20%) constant current.
(See Figure 15). It makes use of the internal bias network.
See Figure 27 f or bias current versus input voltage.
With the addition of a potentiometer and a 10µF capacitor the
HIP5600 will provide a constant current source. IOUT is given
by Equation 13 in Figure 16.
The HIP5600 can control a P-channel MOSFET or IGPT in a
self-oscillating buck regulator. The circuit shown (Figure 17)
shows the self-oscillating concept with a P-IGBT driving a
dedicated fan load. The output voltage is set by the resistor
combination of RF1, RF2, and RF3. Components C3 and
RF3 impresses the output ripple voltage across RF1 causing
the HIP5600 to oscillate and control the conduction of the
P-IGBT. The start-up protection components limit the initial
surge current in the P-IGBT by forcing this device into its
active region. The snubber circuit is recommended to reduce
the power dissipation of the P-IGBT.
