TYPICAL APPLICATION
DESCRIPTION
100mA, Linear Regulator
with Precision Current Limit
and Diagnostic Outputs
The LT
®
3050 series are micro-power, low noise, low
dropout voltage (LDO) linear regulators. The devices
supply 100mA of output current with a dropout voltage of
340mV. A 10nF bypass capacitor reduces output noise to
30V
RMS
in a 10Hz to 100kHz bandwidth and soft-starts
the reference. The LT3050’s ±45V input voltage rating
combined with its precision current limit and diagnostic
functions make the IC an ideal choice for robust, high
reliability applications.
A single resistor programs the LT3050’s current limit, accurate
to ±5% over a wide input voltage and temperature range.
A single resistor programs the LT3050’s minimum output
current monitor, useful for detecting open-circuit conditions.
The current monitor function sources a current equal to
1/100th of output current. A logic FAULT pin asserts low if
the LT3050 is in current limit, operating below its minimum
output current (open-circuit) or is in thermal shutdown.
The LT3050 optimizes stability and transient response
with low ESR ceramic capacitors, requiring a minimum of
2.2F. The LT3050 is available in fi xed output voltages of
3.3V and 5V, and as an adjustable version with an output
voltage range down to the 0.6V reference.The LT3050 is
available in the thermally-enhanced 12-Lead 3mm × 2mm
DFN and MSOP packages.
