Low Dropout 6mA Linear Regulator for DC Fan Control Features Low Dropout Voltage: mv (typical) @ 6mA Low Quiescent Current: 4mA Selectable Adjustable/Full Speed Mode O/I Voltage Ratio in Adjustable Mode :.6 times Stable with Low ESR Ceramic Capacitors Over-Temperature Protection Current Limit Protection with Foldback Current Internal Soft-start SOP-8 Package Lead Free Available (RoHS Compliant) Simplified Application Circuit General Description The APL566 is a low quiescent current, low dropout linear regulator which is designed with a P-channel pass MOSFET to power a DC fan and delivers output current up to 6mA. In adjustable mode, the output voltage follows the.6 times of the voltage on VSET pin to dynamically adjust the DC fan speed; in full speed mode, the internal P-channel MOSFET fully turns on to drive the DC fan with maximum supply voltage for full speed operation. The APL566 with low 4µA quiescent current is ideal for battery-powered system appliances. It is also stable with a low-esr ceramic output capacitor (.µf typical) to reduce total cost and minimize the PCB area required. The APL566 features current limit (with foldback current) and over-temperature protections to protect the device against current over-loads and over temperature. The APL566 is available in a SOP-8 package.

Function Descriptions Under-Voltage Lock-Out (UVLO) The APL566 has a built-in under-voltage lock-out circuit to keep the output off until the internal circuitry is operating properly. The UVLO function initiates a soft start process after input voltage exceeds its rising UVLO threshold during power on. Typical UVLO threshold is.5v with.5v hysteresis. Soft-Start The APL566 provides an internal soft-start circuitry to control rise rate of the output voltage and limit the current surge during start-up. Approximate µs delay time after the is over the UVLO threshold, the IC starts a soft-start. The typical soft-start interval is about 3µs. Thermal Shutdown A thermal shutdown circuit limits the junction temperature of APL566. When the junction temperature exceeds +5 ο C, the thermal shutdown circuitry disables the output, allowing the device to cool down. The output circuitry is enabled again after the junction temperature cools down by 4 ο C, resulting in a pulsed output during continuous thermal overload conditions. The thermal protection is designed to protect the IC in the event of over temperature conditions. For reliable operation, the junction temperature cannot exceed T J =+5 ο C. Adjustable/Full Speed Mode Selection The APL566 features an input pin to select one of the operation modes for DC fan speed control. In adjustable mode, the output voltage follows the.6 times of the voltage on VSET pin to dynamically adjust the DC fan speed; in full speed mode, the internal P-channel MOSFET fully turns on to drive the DC fan with maximum supply voltage ( -V DROP ) for full speed operation. Driving the FSM voltage at high level(v FSM >.6V) sets the IC to operate in adjustable mode; driving the FSM at low level(v FSM <.4V) sets the IC to operate in full speed mode. The FSM is pulled low by an internal resistor. Current Limit The APL566 provides a current limit circuitry, which monitors the output current and controls P-MOS s gate voltage to limit the output current at 7mA (min.). Foldback Current Limit When the output voltage drops below.6v (typical), which is caused by over load or short circuit, the foldback current limit circuitry limits the output current to 5mA. The foldback circuit current limit is used to reduce the power dissipation during short circuit condition. The foldback current limit is disabled for.6ms (typical) after the UVLO threshold is reached, so that the IC has normal 7mA (min.) current limit level during start-up. 8
Application Information Input Capacitor The APL566 requires proper input capacitors to supply surge current during stepping load transients to prevent the input rail from dropping. Because the parasitic inductor from the voltage sources or other bulk capacitors to the VIN limits the slew rate of the surge current, place the Input capacitors near VIN as close as possible. The input capacitors should be larger than.8µf. Output Capacitor The APL566 needs a proper output capacitor to maintain circuit stability and to improve transient response over temperature and current. In order to insure the circuit stability, the proper output capacitor value should be larger than µf. With X5R and X7R dielectrics,.µf is sufficient at all operating temperatures. PCB Layout Considerations Figure illustrates the layout. Below is a checklist for your layout:. Please place the input capacitors close to the VIN. Ceramic capacitors for load must be placed near the load as close as possible 3. To place APL566 and output capacitors near the load is good for performance. 4. Large current paths, the bold lines in figure, must have wide tracks. APL566 C IN V FSM VIN FSM VSET VOUT GND V SET C OUT Operation Region and Power dissipation The APL566 maximum power dissipation depends on the thermal resistance and temperature difference between the die junction and ambient air. The power dissipation P D across the device is: P D (TJ T = θja A ) where (T J -T A ) is the temperature difference between the junction and ambient air. JA is the thermal resistance between Junction and ambient air. Assuming the T A =5 ο C and maximum T J =5 ο C (typical thermal limit threshold), the maximum power dissipation is calculated as: P D(max) =(5-5)/8 =.56 (W) For normal operation, do not exceed the maximum junction temperature of T J = 5 ο C. The calculated power dissipation should less than: P D =(5-5)/8 =.5 (W) Figure Optimum performance can only be achieved when the device is mounted on a PC board according to the SOP-8 Board Layout diagram.
