GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ADP3306
OUT
CC

ERR

R2
The ADP3306 is a member of the ADP330x family of precision
low dropout anyCAP™ voltage regulators. The ADP3306
stands out from the conventional LDOs with a novel architec-
ture, an enhanced process and a new package. Its patented
design requires only a 0.1
µF
output capacitor for stability.
This device is stable with any capacitor, regardless of its ESR
(Equivalent Series Resistance) value, including ceramic types
(MLCC) for space restricted applications. The ADP3306
achieves exceptional accuracy of
±1.0%
at room temperature and
±1.5%
overall accuracy over temperature, line and load regula-
tions. The dropout voltage of the ADP3306 is only 300 mV
(typical) at 300 mA.
In addition to the new architecture and process, ADI’s new
proprietary thermally enhanced package (Thermal Coastline)
can handle 1 W of power dissipation without external heat sink
or large copper surface on the PC board. This keeps PC board
real estate to a minimum and makes the ADP3306 very attrac-
tive for use in portable equipment.

Figure 1. Typical Application Circuit
The ADP3306 operates with a wide input voltage range from
3.2 V to 12 V and delivers a load current in excess of 300 mA. It
features an error flag that signals when the device is about to lose
regulation or when the short circuit or thermal overload protec-
tion is activated. Other features include shutdown and optional
noise reduction capabilities. The ADP330x anyCAP™ LDO fam-
ily offers a wide range of output voltages and output current
levels from 50 mA to 300 mA:
ADP3300 (50 mA, SOT-23)
ADP3307 (100 mA, SOT-23)
ADP3301 (100 mA)
ADP3302 (100 mA, Dual Output)
ADP3304 (100 mA, Dual Output with Separate Grounds)
ADP3303 (200 mA)

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection.
Although the ADP3306 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may
occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD
precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
