500mA Low-Dropout
Linear Regulator in SOT23
General Description
The MAX1818 low-dropout linear regulator operates
from a +2.5V to +5.5V supply and delivers a guaran-
teed 500mA load current with low 120mV dropout. The
high-accuracy (±1%) output voltage is preset at an
internally trimmed voltage (see
Selector Guide)
or can
be adjusted from 1.25V to 5.0V with an external resis-
tive divider.
An internal PMOS pass transistor allows the low 125µA
supply current to remain independent of load, making
this device ideal for portable battery-operated equip-
ment such as personal digital assistants (PDAs), cellu-
lar phones, cordless phones, base stations, and
notebook computers.
Other features include an active-low open-drain reset
output that indicates when the output is out of regula-
tion, a 0.1µA shutdown, short-circuit protection, and
thermal shutdown protection. The device is available in
a miniature 800mW 6-pin SOT23 package.

Note 1:
Thermal properties are specified with product mounted on PC board with one square-inch of copper area and still air. With
minimal copper, the SOT23 package dissipates 712mW at +70°C. With a quarter square inch of copper, it will dissipate
790mW at +70°C. Copper should be equally shared between the IN, OUT, and GND pins.
Note 2:
This device is constructed using a unique set of packaging techniques that imposes a limit on the thermal profile to which
the device can be exposed during board-level solder attach and rework. The limit permits only the use of the solder profiles
recommended in the industry standard specification, IPC JEDEC-J-STD-020A, paragraph 7.6, Table 3 for the IR/VPR and
convection reflow. Preheating is required. Hand or wave soldering is not allowed.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

FUNCTION
Regulator Input. Supply voltage can range from 2.5V to 5.5V. Bypass with a 1µF capacitor to GND (see
Capacitor Selection and Regulator Stability).
Open-Drain POK Output. POK remains low while the output voltage (V
OUT
) is below the POK threshold.
Connect a 100kΩ pull-up resistor from POK to OUT to obtain an output voltage.
Active-Low Shutdown Input. A logic low reduces supply current below 15µA. In shutdown, the POK output is
low, and OUT is high impedance. Connect to IN for normal operation.
Ground
Voltage-Setting Input. Connect to GND for preset output. Connect to a resistive voltage-divider between
OUT and GND to set the output voltage between 1.25V and 5.0V.
Regulator Output. Sources up to 500mA. Bypass with a 3.3µF low-ESR capacitor to GND. Use a 4.7µF
capacitor for output voltages below 2V.
Detailed Description
The MAX1818 is a low-dropout, low-quiescent-current
linear regulator designed primarily for battery-powered
applications. The device supplies loads up to 500mA
and is available with preset output voltages. As illustrat-
ed in Figure 1, the MAX1818 consists of a 1.25V refer-
ence, error amplifier, P-channel pass transistor, and
internal feedback voltage-divider.
The 1.25V reference is connected to the error amplifier,
which compares this reference with the feedback volt-
age and amplifies the difference. If the feedback volt-
age is lower than the reference voltage, the
pass-transistor gate is pulled lower, which allows more
current to pass to the output and increases the output
voltage. If the feedback voltage is too high, the pass-
transistor gate is pulled up, allowing less current to
pass to the output.
The output voltage is fed back through either an inter-
nal resistive divider connected to OUT or an external
resistor network connected to SET. The Dual Mode
comparator examines V
SET
and selects the feedback
path. If V
SET
is below 50mV, the internal feedback path
is used and the output is regulated to the factory-preset
voltage.
