50 µA Ground Current for Longer Battery Life
Adjustable Output Voltage
Very Low Dropout Voltage
Choice of 50 mA (TC1070), 100 mA (TC1071)
and 150 mA (TC1187) Output
Power-Saving Shutdown mode
Overcurrent and Overtemperature Protection
Space-Saving 5-Pin SOT-23 Package
Pin Compatible with Bipolar Regulators
Description:
The TC1070, TC1071 and TC1187 devices are
adjustable LDOs designed to supersede a variety of
older (bipolar) voltage regulators. Total supply current
is typically 50 µA at full load (20 to 60 times lower than
in bipolar regulators).
The devices’ key features include ultra low-noise
operation, very low dropout voltage – typically 85 mV
(TC1070), 180 mV (TC1071) and 270 mV (TC1187) at
full load and fast response to step changes in load.
Supply current is reduced to 0.5 µA (maximum) when
the shutdown input is low. The devices incorporate both
overtemperature and overcurrent protection. Output
voltage is programmed with a simple resistor divider
from V
OUT
to ADJ to GND.
The TC1070, TC1071 and TC1187 devices are stable
with an output capacitor of only 1 µF and have a
maximum output current of 50 mA, 100 mA and
150 mA, respectively. For higher output versions
please see the TC1174 (I
OUT
= 300 mA) data sheet
(DS21363).

Regulation is measured at a constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Load regu-
lation is tested over a load range from 0.1 mA to the maximum specified output current. Changes in output
voltage due to heating effects are covered by the thermal regulation specification.
Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its
nominal value.
Thermal Regulation is defined as the change in output voltage at a time T after a change in power dissipa-
tion is applied, excluding load or line regulation effects. Specifications are for a current pulse equal to
Ilmax at V
IN
= 6V for T = 10 ms.
The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of ambient temperature, the maximum allowable
junction temperature and the thermal resistance from junction-to-air (i.e., Ta, Tj,
ja).
Exceeding the maxi-
mum allowable power dissipation causes the device to initiate thermal shutdown. Please see
