PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The SPX1084 are low power 5A adjustable and fixed voltage regulators with 30V maximum V
IN
. They are very easy to use. It
requires only 2 external resistors to set the output voltage for adjustable version. The SPX1084 are designed for low voltage
applications that offers lower dropout voltage and faster transient response. This device is an excellent choice for use in powering low
voltage microprocessor that require a lower dropout, faster transient response to regulate from +2.5V to 3.8V supplies and as a post
regulator for switching supplies applications. The SPX1084 features low dropout of a maximum of 1.2 volts.
The SPX1084 offers full protection against over-current faults, reversed input polarity, reversed load insertion, and positive and
negative transient voltage. On-Chip trimming adjusts the reference voltage to 1%. The I
Q
of this device flows into load, which
increases efficiency.
The SPX1084 are offered in 3-pin TO-220 and TO-263 packages compatible with other 3 terminal regulators. For a similar 5A low
dropout voltage regulator refer to the SPX1084 datasheet. Also for higher current requirements, refer to the SPX1084 datasheet.

APPLICATION HINTS
The SPX1084 incorporates protection against over-current
faults, reversed load insertion, over temperature operation, and
positive and negative transient voltage. However, the use of
an output capacitor is required in order to insure the stability
and the performances.
Stability
The output capacitor is part of the regulator’s frequency
compensation system. Either a 220µF aluminum electrolytic
capacitor or a 47µF solid tantalum capacitor between the
output terminal and ground guarantees stable operation for all
operating conditions.
However, in order to minimize overshoot and undershoot, and
therefore optimize the design, please refer to the section
‘Ripple Rejection’.
Ripple Rejection
Ripple rejection can be improved by adding a capacitor
between the ADJ pin and ground. When ADJ pin bypassing is
used, the value of the output capacitor required increases to its
maximum (220µF for an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, or
47µF for a solid tantalum capacitor). If the ADJ pin is not
bypass, the value of the output capacitor can be lowered to
100µF for an electrolytic aluminum capacitor or 15µF for a
solid tantalum capacitor.
However the value of the ADJ-bypass capacitor should be
chosen with respect to the following equation:
C = 1 / ( 6.28 * F
R
* R
1
)
Where C
= value of the capacitor in Farads (select an
equal or larger standard value),
F
R
= ripple frequency in Hz,
R
1
= value of resistor R
1
in Ohms.
If an ADJ-bypass capacitor is use, the amplitude of the output
ripple will be independent of the output voltage. If an ADJ-
bypass capacitor is not used, the output ripple will be
proportional to the ratio of the output voltage to the reference
voltage:
M = V
OUT
/ V
REF
Where M = multiplier for the ripple seen when the ADJ pin
is optimally bypassed.
V
REF
= Reference Voltage
Reducing parasitic resistance and inductance
One solution to minimize parasitic resistance and inductance is
to connect in parallel capacitors. This arrangement will
improve the transient response of the power supply if your
system requires rapidly changing current load condition.
Thermal Consideration
Although the SPX1084 offers some limiting circuitry for
overload conditions, it is necessary not to exceed the
maximum junction temperature, and therefore to be careful
about thermal resistance. The heat flow will follow the lowest
resistance path, which is the Junction-to-case thermal
resistance. In order to insure the best thermal flow of the
component, a proper mounting is required. Note that the case
of the device is electrically connected to the output. In case
the case has to be electrically isolated, a thermally conductive
spacer can be used. However do not forget to consider its
contribution to thermal resistance.

Output Voltage
Consider Figure 2. The resistance R
1
generates a constant current flow, normally the specified load current of 10mA. This current will
go through the resistance R
2
to set the overall output voltage. The current I
ADJ
is very small and constant. Therefore its contribution to
the overall output voltage is very small and can generally be ignored
Load Regulation
Parasitic line resistance can degrade load regulation. In order not to affect the behavior of the regulator, it is best to connect directly
the R
1
resistance from the resistor divider to the case, and not to the load. For the same reason, it is best to connect the resistor R
2
to
the Negative side of the load.
