MAX1725/MAX1726 12V, Ultra-Low IQ, Low-Dropout Linear Regulators General Description Features The MAX1725/MAX1726 are ultra-low supply current, low-dropout linear regulators intended for low-power applications that demand the longest possible battery life. Unlike inferior PNP-based designs, the MAX1725/ MAX1726s' PMOS pass elements maintain an ultra-low 2A supply current throughout their entire operating range and in dropout. Despite their ultra-low power consumption, the MAX1725/MAX1726 have tight output accuracy (1.5%) and require just 1F output capacitance to achieve good load-transient response. These regulators have a wide input voltage range (+2.5V to +12V), making them excellent choices for systems powered from two lithium-ion (Li+) cells and 9V batteries. Other features include reverse-battery protection, short-circuit protection, and thermal protection. o 2A Supply Current The MAX1725 provides an adjustable 1.5V to 5V output using an external resistor-divider. The MAX1726 provides factory preset 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, or 5V output voltages (see the Ordering Information). Both devices are available in a tiny 5-pin SOT23 package. o Tiny 5-Pin SOT23 Package o Reverse-Battery Protection o +2.5V to +12V Input Voltage Range o Fixed 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V Output Voltages (MAX1726) o Adjustable 1.5V to 5V Output Voltages (MAX1725) o 20mA Guaranteed Output Current o 1.5% Output Voltage Accuracy o Small 1F Output Capacitor o Short-Circuit Protection o Thermal Protection Ordering Information PART ________________________Applications TEMP RANGE PIN- TOP PACKAGE MARK MAX1725EUK+T -40C to +85C 5 SOT23 Smoke Detectors MAX1726EUK18+T -40C to +85C 5 SOT23 ADNL Remote Transmitters MAX1726EUK25+T -40C to +85C 5 SOT23 ADNM Smart Battery Packs MAX1726EUK25/V+T -40C to +85C 5 SOT23 AFMN MAX1726EUK33+T -40C to +85C 5 SOT23 ADNN MAX1726EUK50+T -40C to +85C 5 SOT23 ADNO Industrial Control Systems Microcontroller Power ADNK +Denotes a lead(Pb)-free/RoHS-compliant package. /V denotes an automotive-qualified part.

The MAX1725 provides an adjustable output voltage from 1.5V to 5V using an external resistor-divider. The MAX1726 supplies preset output voltages of 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, or 5V. These devices consist of a +1.245V error amplifier, MOSFET driver, and p-channel pass transistor (Figure 2).

If the feedback voltage is lower than 1.245V, the pass-transistor gate is pulled lower, allowing more current to pass, and thus increasing the output voltage.

Typical Application Circuit sistor gate is driven higher, allowing less current to pass to the output. The output voltage is fed back through either an internal resistor voltage-divider connected to OUT (MAX1726) or an external resistor network connected to FB (MAX1725). Additional features include an output current limiter, reverse-battery protection, a thermal sensor, and shutdown logic. Internal P-Channel Pass Transistor The MAX1725/MAX1726 feature a p-channel MOSFET pass transistor. This provides advantages over similar designs using PNP pass transistors, including longer battery life. The p-channel MOSFET requires no base drive, which reduces quiescent current considerably. PNP-based regulators waste considerable current in dropout when the pass transistor saturates; they also use high base-drive currents under large loads. The MAX1725/MAX1726 do not suffer from these problems, and consume only 2A of quiescent current throughout their load range (see the Typical Operating Characteristics). IN OUT MAX1725 MAX1726 BIAS CIRCUITRY THERMAL SHUTDOWN 1.245V (MAX1726 ONLY) SHDN FB (MAX1725 ONLY) GND Figure 2. Functional Diagram Maxim Integrated 5 MAX1725/MAX1726 12V, Ultra-Low IQ, Low-Dropout Linear Regulators Shutdown To enter shutdown, drive the SHDN pin below 0.5V. When the MAX1725/MAX1726 are shut down, the output pass transistor shuts off, the output falls to ground, and supply current drops from 2A to 0.7A. Connect SHDN to IN for normal operation. If reverse-battery protection is needed, drive SHDN through a 100k resistor. Thermal-Overload Protection Thermal-overload protection limits total power dissipation in the MAX1725/MAX1726. When the junction temperature exceeds T J = +150C, the thermal sensor signals the shutdown logic, turning off the pass transistor and allowing the IC to cool. The thermal sensor turns the pass transistor on again after the IC's junction temperature cools by 15C, resulting in a pulsed output during continuous thermal-overload conditions. Thermal-overload protection is designed to protect the devices in the event of fault conditions. For continuous operation, do not exceed the absolute maximum junction temperature rating of TJ = +150C. Foldback Current Limiting The MAX1725/MAX1726 also include a foldback current limiter. When the output is shorted to ground, the output PMOS drive is limited so that the output current does not exceed 40mA (typ). The output can be shorted to ground indefinitely without damaging the part. Reverse-Battery Protection The MAX1725/MAX1726 have a unique protection scheme that limits the reverse supply current to less than 10A when VIN is forced below ground. The circuitry monitors the polarity of the input, disconnecting the internal circuitry and parasitic diodes when the battery is reversed. This feature prevents the device, battery, and load from overheating and electrical stress. For reverse-battery protection, drive SHDN through a 100k resistor. Applications Information Capacitor Selection and Regulator Stability For general purposes, use a 1F capacitor on the MAX1725/MAX1726 input and output. Larger input capacitor values and lower ESR provide better supply- 6 noise rejection and transient response. A higher-value input capacitor (10F) may be necessary if large, fast transients are anticipated and the device is located several inches from the power source. For stable operation R1 VOUT = VFB 1 + R2 over the full temperature range, use a minimum of 1F on the output. V R1 = R2 OUT - 1 V FB Output-Voltage Selection For fixed 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, or 5V output voltages, use the MAX1726. The MAX1725 features an adjustable output voltage from 1.5V to 5V, using two external resistors connected as a voltage-divider to FB (Figure 1). The MAX1725 is optimized for operation with R2 = 1.2M. The output voltage is set by the following equation: where typically VFB = 1.245V. To simplify resistor selection: Choose R2 = 1.2M for best accuracy. Power-Supply Rejection and Operation from Sources Other than Batteries The MAX1725/MAX1726 are designed to deliver low dropout voltages and low quiescent currents in batterypowered systems. Power-supply rejection is 60dB at low frequencies and rolls off above 100Hz. At high frequencies, the output capacitor is the major contributor to the rejection of power-supply noise (see the Power-Supply Rejection Ratio vs. Frequency graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics). When operating from sources other than batteries, improve supply-noise rejection and transient response by increasing the value of the input and output capacitors, and by using passive filtering techniques (see the Supply and Load Transient Response graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics).
