Description
The ILC7280 is two independent 150mA low dropout (LDO)
voltage regulators in an 8-pin MSOP package. Each regulator
output is independently short circuit protected and has
independent enable lines. The device offers a unique
combination of low dropout voltage and low quiescent
current of CMOS as well as the low noise and high ripple
rejection characteristics of bipolar LDO regulators.
Moreover, only one input capacitor is required.
Dropout Voltage:
Typically 150mV at 150mA load, and
1mV at 1mA load.
Ground Pin Current:
Typically 130µA at 1mA load, and
135µA at 150mA load.
Ripple Rejection:
55dB at 1kHz and 60dB at 100kHz.
Shutdown Mode:
Less than 0.5µA quiescent current in
shutdown mode.
Small Package:
MSOP-8
Small Capacitor:
Requires only a 0.47µF external capacitor
on the regulator output.
Precision Output:
Output voltage trimmed to 1% accuracy.

Notes:
1. Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits which when exceeded may result in damage to the component. Electrical
specifications do not apply when operating the device outside of its rated operating conditions.
2. Specified Min/Max limits are production tested or guaranteed through correlation based on statistical control methods.
Measurements are taken at constant junction temperature as close to ambient as possible using low duty pulse testing.
3. Dropout Voltage is defined as the measured Differential Voltage between input and output voltage, when the output voltage
drops 2% below the nominal output voltage as V
IN
is decreased, and approaches V
OUT
. Nominal output voltage is defined at
V
IN
= V
OUT
+ 1V.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
+V
IN
A and B
These pins are connected internally through a galvanic
connection for maximum power from each regulator, both
V
INA
and V
INB
must be connected externally to V
DD
.
Output Capacitor
An output capacitor is required from V
OUTA
and V
OUTB
to
GND to prevent oscillation and minimize the effect of load
transient currents. The minimum size of the output
capacitor(s) is dependent on the usage of C
NOISE
and its
value. Without C
NOISE,
a minimum of 1µF is recommended.
For C
NOISE
= 22pF, a minimum of 2.2µF is recommended
(See figure 1). Larger values of output capacitance will slow
the regulator's response during power up. The upper limit of
capacitance is indefinite, however, it should have an
equivalent series resistance (ESR) of approximately 5Ω or
less and a series resonance above 1MHz. Stability is assured
with the use of a capacitor having ultra-low ESR and as such
will not produce low amplitude oscillations nor an
underdamped transient response. This allows the use of
modern ceramic capacitors in preference to their more costly
Tantalum counterparts.
If the system design calls for smaller load currents, lower
capacitance may be used. Below 10mA the capacitance may
be reduced to 0.47µF and below 1mA to 0.33µF
Enable/Shutdown
Forcing EN
A
and/or EN
B
to a voltage greater than 2V,
enables the regulator(s). These inputs are CMOS logic
compatible gates. If this feature is not required, connect EN
A
and/or EN
B
to V
IN
. Note that V
INA
and V
INB
are connected
internally. To minimize the effect of imbalanced current
sharing and possible noise, both V
INA
and V
INB
should also
be connected externally.
Preliminary Information
Input Capacitor
A 1µF capacitor should be placed from V
INA/B
to GND if
there is more than 10 inches of wire between the input and
the ac filter capacitor or if a battery is used as the input.
Reference Bypass Capacitor
C
NOISE
(the reference voltage bypass capacitor) is connected
to the internal V
REF
which is common to regulator's A and B.
A 22pF capacitor connected between C
NOISE
and GND
decouples the reference output voltage and provides a
significant reduction in regulator output noise. An effect of
C
NOISE
also reduces the regulator phase margin. When using
C
NOISE
, output capacitors of 2.2µF or greater are required to
maintain stability.
Also affected by C
NOISE
is the start up speed of the ICL7280.
The speed is inversely proportional to the value of C
NOISE
. If
a slow or delayed start up time is desired, a larger value of
C
NOISE
is used. Conversely, faster start up times or instant-
on applications will require smaller values of C
NOISE
or its
omission with the pin left open. The trade-off of noise to
response should be considered.
No-Load Stability
The ILC7280 will remain stable and in regulation with no
load current. These are desirable performance features for
applications such as keep-alive modes in CMOS systems.
Split-Supply Operation
When using the ILC7280 in a system requiring that the load
be returned to the negative voltage source, the output(s) must
be diode clamped to inhibit significant voltage excursions
below ground. A simple external diode clamp to ground will
afford protection from damage to the device. (See figure
below).
