GQ2171
Description
C M O S P o s i t i v e Vo l t a g e R e g u l a t o r
The GQ2171 series of positive, linear regulators feature low quiescent current (50 A typ.) with low dropout
voltage and excellent PSRR, thus making them ideal for Telecommunications and other battery applications.
These rugged devices have both Thermal Shutdown, and Current Fold-back to prevent device failure under
the “Worst” of operating conditions.
As an additional feature, the GQ2171 is stable with an output capacitance of just extended 0.22 F or greater.

The GQ2171 series of COMS regulators contain a PMOS pass transistor, voltage reference, error amplifier,
over-current protection, and thermal shutdown.
The P-channel pass transistor receives data from the error amplifier, over-current shutdown, and thermal
protection circuits. During normal operation, the error amplifier compares the output voltage to a precision
reference. Over-current and Thermal shutdown circuits become active when the junction temperature exceeds
150 : , or the current exceeds 150mA. During thermal shutdown, the output voltage remains low. Normal
operation is restored when the junction temperature drops below 120 : .
The GQ2171 switches from voltage mode to current mode when the load exceeds the rated output current.
This prevents over-stress. The GQ2171 also incorporates current fold-back to reduce power dissipation when
the output is short circuited. This feature becomes active when the output drops below 0.8 volts, and reduces
the current flow by 65%. Full current is restored when the voltage exceeds 0.8 volts.
The GQ2171 is stable with an output capacitance to ground of 0.22 F or greater. Ceramic capacitors have the
lowest ESR, and will offer the best AC performance. Conversely, Aluminum Electrolytic capacitors exhibit the
highest ESR, resulting in the poorest AC response.
A second capacitor is recommended between the input and ground to stabilize Vin. The input capacitor should
be at least 1 F to have a beneficial effect.
A large capacitor improves the AC ripple rejection, but also makes the output come up slowly. This “Soft”
turn-on is desirable in some applications to limit turn-on surges.
All capacitors should be placed in close proximity to the pins. A “Quiet” ground termination is desirable. This
can be achieved with a “Star” connection.
When actively, pulled low, the PMOS pass transistor shuts off, and all internal circuits are powered down. In
this state, the quiescent current is less than 1 A. This pin behaves much like an electronic switch.
