AQ8211
Ultra-Low Dropout
500mA Voltage Regulator
with Enable
Product Specification
Revision 2.1
January 22, 2007
General Description
The AQ8211 is an ultra-low dropout voltage
regulator capable of delivering
500 mA
to the
load. It is adjustable and can set a precise
voltage from 1.22V to 12V with two external
resistors. The AQ8211 meets all specifications
down to 1.22V output, unlike CMOS LDO’s which
loose performance with outputs below 2.25V.
The
enable
pin provides a remote turn-off for low
power consumption. It draws virtually zero current
in shutdown mode and implements Sequential,
Ratiometric,
or
Simultaneous
sequencing
schemes. This also allows for a separate bias
connection from the pass transistor in order to
achieve
ultra low dropout
from V
IN
to V
OUT
.
Reverse current protection
blocks current
flowing from V
OUT
to V
IN
when the AQ8211 is
disabled. No current flows.
To assure accuracy over temperature, the heart
of the AQ8211 is a self-correcting AcuRef™
bandgap reference.
On-chip current limit and thermal shutdown with
hysteresis protects against any combination of
overload and ambient temperature that might
cause the junction temperature to exceed safe
limits.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stress greater than those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the
device. These stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any conditions beyond
those indicated under recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. Exposure to “Absolute Maximum
Rating” for extended periods may affect device reliability. Use of standard ESD handling precautions is
required.
