Over-Current & Over-Temperature Protection
The IRUH3301 series provides over-current protection by means of a timed latch function. Drive
current to the internal PNP pass transistor is limited by an internal resistor (Rb in Fig. 3) between
the base of the transistor and the control IC drive FET. If an over-current condition forces the
voltage across this resistor to exceed 0.5V (nom), the latch feature will be triggered. The time-to-
latch (tLATCH) is nominally 10ms. If the over-current condition exists for less than tLATCH , the latch
will not be set. If the latch is set the drive current to the PNP pass transistor will be disabled. The
latch will remain set until one of the following actions occur:
1. The SHDN Pin voltage is brought above 1.2V and then lowered below 0.8V.
2. The VIN Pin voltage is lowered below 1.7V.
If the junction temperature of the regulator IC exceeds 140°C nominal, the thermal shutdown circuit
will set the internal latch and disable the drive current to the PNP pass transistor as described
above. After the junction temperature falls below a nominal 125°C, the latch can be reset using
either of the actions described above.
Under-Voltage Lock-Out
The under-voltage lock-out (UVLO) function prevents operation when VIN is less than 1.7V
(nominal). There is a nominal 100mV hysteresis about this point.
Input Voltage Range
Shutdown (SHDN)
The regulator can be shutdown by applying a voltage of >1.2V to the SHDN Pin. The regulator will
restart when the SHDN Pin is pulled below the shutdown threshold of 0.8V. If the remote shutdown
feature is not required, the SHDN Pin should be connected to GND.
The device functions fully when VIN is greater than 2.8V. It enters into under-voltage lock-out at VIN
< 1.7V (nominal). When 1.7V (nominal) < VIN < 2.8V, VOUT will track VIN and overshoot may occur.
A larger output capacitor should be used to slow down the VOUT rise rate for slow VIN ramp
applications.

Input Capacitance
Input bypass capacitors: Two (0.1µF and 1µF) ceramics and two 100µF low ESR tantalums (AVX
TPS or equivalent), placed very close to the VIN Pin are required for proper operation. When the
input voltage supply capacitance is more than 4 inches from the device, additional input
capacitance is recommended. Larger input capacitor values will improve ripple rejection further
improving the integrity of the output voltage.
Output Capacitance
Output bypass capacitors: Two (0.1µF and 1µF) ceramics and two 100µF low ESR tantalums
(AVX TPS or equivalent) are required for loop stability. Faster transient performance can be
achieved with multiple additional 1µF ceramic capacitors. Ceramic capacitors greater than 1µF in
value are not recommended as they can cause stability issues.
Tantalum capacitor values larger than the suggested value are recommended to improve the
transient response under large load current changes. The upper capacitance value limit is
governed by the delayed over-current latch function of the regulator and can be as much as
10,000µF without causing the device to latch-off during start-up.
General Layout Rules
Low impedance connections between the regulator output and load are essential. Solid power and
ground planes are highly recommended. In those cases where the board impedances are not kept
very small, oscillations can occur due to the effect of parasitic series resistance and inductance
on loop bandwidth and phase margin.
The VSENSE Pin must be connected directly to the VOUT Pin using as short a trace as possible with
the connection inside the first bypass capacitor (see Fig. 2a).
Connect ceramic output capacitors directly across the VOUT and GND Pins with as wide a trace as
design rules allow (see Fig. 2a). Avoid the use of vias for these capacitors and avoid loops. Fig.2
shows the ceramic capacitors tied directly to the regulator output.

The input capacitors should be connected as close a possible to the VIN Pin.
