Product Description
The CM3112-12 is a low quiescent current (90uA) reg-
ulator that delivers up to 150mA of load current at a
fixed 1.2V output. All the necessary circuitry has been
included to deliver a 50Ω power good signal (open
drain) which remains for 5ms after the output has
exceeded 90% (typ) of its nominal level.
A dedicated control input (EN, Active High) has been
included for power-up sequencing flexibility. When this
input is taken low, the regulator is disabled. In this
state, the supply current will drop to near zero. An inter-
nal discharge MOSFET (500Ω) resistance will force the
output to ground whenever the device has been shut-
down.
The CM3112-12 is fully protected, offering both over-
load current limiting and high temperature thermal
shutdown.
Housed in a tiny SOT23 package, the device is ideal for
space critical applications and is also available with
optional lead-free finishing.

DESCRIPTION
Positive input voltage for the regulator. The internal loading on this input is typically 300µA when-
ever the regulator is enabled, and less than 10µA when the regulator is disabled. If the IN pin is
within a few inches of the main input filter, a capacitor may not be necessary. Otherwise an input fil-
ter capacitor (C
IN
) of 0.1uF to 1uF will ensure adequate filtering.
The negative reference for all voltages.
Enable/shutdown input. When EN is asserted high (V
EN
≥
1.6V), the regulator is enabled. When EN
is asserted low (V
EN
≤
0.4V), the regulator’s series pass transistor is forced into a high impedance
mode and an internal discharge resistance (500
Ω
) is applied to the output to quickly reduce the out-
put voltage to 0 volts.

PG
Power Good output. This is an open drain output and functions as a supply voltage supervisor for
the output voltage. It is asserted low when the output falls below 84% of its nominal value. This out-
put becomes inactive when (EN > 1.5V), (2.5V < V
IN
< 5.5V) and (V
OUT
> 97% of V
OUTNOM)
, all of
which are valid for more than 1-10ms.
The regulated voltage output. Although an output capacitor is not necessary for stable regulator
operation, a optional 0.1uF capacitor can be used to provide an added measure of output stability.

Note 1: The power rating is based on a printed circuit board heat spreading capability equivalent to 2 square inches of copper con-
nected to the GND pins. Typical multi-layer boards using power plane construction will provide this heat spreading ability
without the need for additional dedicated copper area. Please consult with factory for thermal evaluation assistance.
