Furthermore, a quiescent current reduction circuit has been included which reduces the ground current when the differential between the input voltage and the output voltage exceeds approximately 3 V. The quiescent current with 1 A of output current and an input-output differential of 5 V is therefore only 30 mA. Higher quiescent currents only exist when the regulator is in the dropout mode (VIN - VOUT 3 V). 1 Input Voltage Range = 6 V to 26 V Dropout Voltage Typically 0.5 V at IOUT = 1 A Output Current in Excess of 1 A Output Voltage Trimmed Before Assembly Reverse Battery Protection Internal Short Circuit Current Limit Mirror Image Insertion Protection P+ Product Enhancement Tested 2 Applications * * * Post Regulator for Switching Supplies Logic Power Supplies Industrial Instrumentation space space space Designed also for vehicular applications, the LM2940N and LM2940C and all regulated circuitry are protected from reverse battery installations or 2battery jumps. During line transients, such as load dump when the input voltage can momentarily exceed the specified maximum operating voltage, the regulator will automatically shut down to protect both the internal circuits and the load. The LM2940-N and LM2940C cannot be harmed by temporary mirrorimage insertion. Familiar regulator features such as short circuit and thermal overload protection are also provided.

Recommended Operating Conditions are conditions under which the device functions but the specifications might not be ensured. For ensured specifications and test conditions see the Electrical Characteristics (5 V and 8 V). If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/ Distributors for availability and specifications. The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, TJ, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, RJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown. The value of R JA (for devices in still air with no heatsink) is 23.3C/W for the TO-220 package, 40.9C/W for the DDPAK/TO-263 package, and 59.3C/W for the SOT-223 package. The effective value of RJA can be reduced by using a heatsink (see Heatsinking for specific information on heatsinking). The value of RJA for the WSON package is specifically dependent on PCB trace area, trace material, and the number of layers and thermal vias. For improved thermal resistance and power dissipation for the WSON package, refer to Application Note AN-1187 Leadless Leadframe Package (LLP) (SNOA401). It is recommended that 6 vias be placed under the center pad to improve thermal performance. Refer to JEDEC J-STD-020C for surface mount device (SMD) package reflow profiles and conditions.

Furthermore, a quiescent current reduction circuit has been included which reduces the ground current when the differential between the input voltage and the output voltage exceeds approximately 3 V. The quiescent current with 1 A of output current and an input-output differential of 5 V is therefore only 30 mA. Higher quiescent currents only exist when the regulator is in the dropout mode (VIN - VOUT 3 V). 7.2 Functional Block Diagram IN OUT PNP OVSD (30 V) Current Limit Thermal Shutdown + Bandgap Reference GND 7.3 Feature Description 7.3.1 Short-Circuit Current Limit The internal current limit circuit is used to protect the LDO against high-load current faults or shorting events. The LDO is not designed to operate in a steady-state current limit. During a current-limit event, the LDO sources constant current. Therefore, the output voltage falls when load impedance decreases. Note, also, that if a current limit occurs and the resulting output voltage is low, excessive power may be dissipated across the LDO, resulting a thermal shutdown of the output. 7.3.2 Overvoltage Shutdown (OVSD) Input voltage greater than typically 30 V will cause the LM2940 output to be disabled. When operating with the input voltage greater than the maximum recommended input voltage of 26 V, the device performance is not ensured. Continuous operation with the input voltage greater than the maximum recommended input voltage is discouraged. 7.3.3 Thermal Shutdown (TSD) The LM2940 contains the thermal shutdown circuitry to turn off the output when excessive heat is dissipated in the LDO. The internal protection circuitry of the LM2940 is designed to protect against thermal overload conditions. The TSD circuitry is not intended to replace proper heat sinking. Continuously running the device into thermal shutdown degrades its reliability as the junction temperature will be exceeding the absolute maximum junction temperature rating.

Generally, the output voltage will track the input voltage until the input voltage is greater than VOUT + 1V. When the input voltage is greater than VOUT + 1 V, the LM2940 will be in linear operation, and the output voltage will be regulated. However, the device will be sensitive to any small perturbation of the input voltage.

Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality. 8.1 Application Information The LM2940-N and LM2940C positive voltage regulators feature the ability to source 1 A of output current with a dropout voltage of typically 0.5 V and a maximum of 1 V over the entire temperature range. The output capacitor, COUT, must have a capacitance value of at least 22 F with an ESR of at least 100 m, but no more than 1 . The minimum capacitance value and the ESR requirements apply across the entire expected operating ambient temperature range. 8.2 Typical Application VIN Unregulated Input LM2940 IN VOUT Regulated Output OUT + COUT** C1* 0.47 F 22 F IQ *Required if regulator is located far from power supply filter. **COUT must be at least 22 F to maintain stability. May be increased without bound to maintain regulation during transients. Locate as close as possible to the regulator. This capacitor must be rated over the same operating temperature range as the regulator and the ESR is critical; see curve. Figure 26. Typical Application 8.2.1 Design Requirements Table 1. Design Parameters DESIGN PARAMETER EXAMPLE VALUE Input voltage range 6 V to 26 V Output voltage range 8V Output current range 5 mA to 1 A Input capacitor value 0.47 F Output capacitor value 22 F minimum Output capacitor ESR range 100 m to 1 8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure 8.2.2.1 External Capacitors The output capacitor is critical to maintaining regulator stability, and must meet the required conditions for both equivalent series resistance (ESR) and minimum amount of capacitance. 8.2.2.1.1 Minimum Capacitance The minimum output capacitance required to maintain stability is 22 F (this value may be increased without limit). Larger values of output capacitance will give improved transient response.

The acceptable range of ESR plotted versus load current is shown in the graph below. It is essential that the output capacitor meet these requirements, or oscillations can result. Figure 27. Output Capacitor ESR Limits It is important to note that for most capacitors, ESR is specified only at room temperature. However, the designer must ensure that the ESR will stay inside the limits shown over the entire operating temperature range for the design. For aluminum electrolytic capacitors, ESR will increase by about 30X as the temperature is reduced from 25C to -40C. This type of capacitor is not well-suited for low temperature operation. Solid tantalum capacitors have a more stable ESR over temperature, but are more expensive than aluminum electrolytics. A cost-effective approach sometimes used is to parallel an aluminum electrolytic with a solid tantalum, with the total capacitance split about 75/25% with the aluminum being the larger value. If two capacitors are paralleled, the effective ESR is the parallel of the two individual values. The flatter ESR of the tantalum will keep the effective ESR from rising as quickly at low temperatures. 8.2.3 Application Curves Figure 28.

This input supply must be well regulated and free of spurious noise. To ensure that the LM2940 output voltage is well regulated, the input supply should be at least VOUT + 2 V. 10 Layout 10.1 Layout Guidelines The dynamic performance of the LM2940 is dependent on the layout of the PCB. PCB layout practices that are adequate for typical LDOs may degrade the PSRR, noise, or transient performance of the LM2940. Best performance is achieved by placing CIN and COUT on the same side of the PCB as the LM2940, and as close as is practical to the package. The ground connections for CIN and COUT should be back to the LM2940 ground pin using as wide and short of a copper trace as is practical. 10.2 Layout Examples Ground 5 1 6 2 CIN COUT GND VIN 3 7 4 8 VOUT Figure 30.

Under all possible operating conditions, the junction temperature must be within the range specified under Absolute Maximum Ratings (1) (2). To determine if a heatsink is required, the power dissipated by the regulator, PD, must be calculated. Figure 33 shows the voltages and currents which are present in the circuit, as well as the formula for calculating the power dissipated in the regulator: IIN = IL + IG PD = (VIN - VOUT) IL + (VIN) IG Figure 33. Power Dissipation Diagram The next parameter which must be calculated is the maximum allowable temperature rise, TR(MAX). This is calculated by using the formula: TR(MAX) = TJ(MAX) - TA(MAX) where * * TJ(MAX) is the maximum allowable junction temperature, which is 125C for commercial grade parts. TA(MAX)is the maximum ambient temperature which will be encountered in the application. (1) Using the calculated values for TR(MAX) and PD, the maximum allowable value for the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, RJA, can now be found: RJA = TR(MAX) / PD (2) NOTE If the maximum allowable value for RJA is found to be 23.3C/W for the TO-220 package (with a heatsink of 21.7C/W RSA), 40.9C/W for the DDPAK/TO-263 package, or 59.3C/W for the SOT-223 package, no heatsink is needed since the package alone will dissipate enough heat to satisfy these requirements. If the calculated value for RJA falls below these limits, a heatsink is required. (1) (2) 18 Absolute Maximum Ratings are limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Recommended Operating Conditions are conditions under which the device functions but the specifications might not be ensured. For ensured specifications and test conditions see the Electrical Characteristics (5 V and 8 V).

If a manufactured heatsink is to be selected, the value of heatsink-to-ambient thermal resistance, RSA, must first be calculated: RSA = RJA - RCS - RJC where * * RJC is defined as the thermal resistance from the junction to the surface of the case. A value of 3C/W can be assumed for RJC for this calculation. RCS is defined as the thermal resistance between the case and the surface of the heatsink. The value of RCS will vary from about 0.5C/W to about 2.5C/W (depending on method of attachment, insulator, etc.). If the exact value is unknown, 2C/W should be assumed for RCS. (3) When a value for RSA is found using Equation 3, a heatsink must be selected that has a value that is less than or equal to this number. RSA is specified numerically by the heatsink manufacturer in the catalog, or shown in a curve that plots temperature rise vs power dissipation for the heatsink.
