DESCRIPTION
The LT ®1580 is a 7A low dropout regulator designed to
power the new generation of microprocessors. The drop-
out voltage of this device is 100mV at light loads rising to
just 540mV at 7A. To achieve this dropout, a second low
current input voltage 1V greater than the output voltage, is
required. The device can also be used as a single supply
device where dropout is comparable to an LT1584.
Several other new features have been added to the LT1580.
A remote SENSE pin is brought out. This feature virtually
eliminates output voltage variations due to load changes.
Typical load regulation, measured at the SENSE pin, for a
load current step of 100mA to 7A is less than 1mV.
The LT1580 has fast transient response, equal to the
LT1584. On fixed voltage devices, the ADJ pin is brought
out. A small capacitor on the ADJ pin further improves
transient response.
This device is ideal for generating processor supplies of
2V to 3V on motherboards where both 5V and 3.3V
supplies are available.

Note 1:
Unless otherwise specified V

SENSE
. For the LT1580
adjustable device V
ADJ
= 0V.
Note 2:
For the LT1580, dropout is caused by either minimum control
voltage (V
CONTROL
) or minimum power voltage (V
POWER
). Both parameters
are specified with respect to the output voltage. The specifications represent
the minimum input/output voltage required to maintain 1% regulation.
Note 3:
For the LT1580 adjustable device the minimum load current is the
minimum current required to maintain regulation. Normally the current in
the resistor divider used to set the output voltage is selected to meet the
minimum load current requirement.
Note 4:
The control pin current is the drive current required for the output
transistor. This current will track output current with roughly a 1:100 ratio.
The minimum value is equal to the quiescent current of the device.

PIN FUNCTIONS
(5-Lead/7-Lead)
SENSE (Pin 1):
This pin is the positive side of the reference
voltage for the device. With this pin it is possible to Kelvin
sense the output voltage at the load.
ADJ (Pin 2/5):
This pin is the negative side of the
reference voltage for the device. Transient response can
be improved by adding a small bypass capacitor from the
ADJ pin to ground. For fixed voltage devices the ADJ pin
is also brought out to allow the user to add a bypass
capacitor.
GND (Pin 2, 7-Lead Only):
For fixed voltage devices this
is the bottom of the resistor divider that sets the output
voltage.

POWER
(Pin 5/6):
This is the collector to the power device
of the LT1580. The output load current is supplied through
this pin. For the device to regulate, the voltage at this pin
must be between 0.1V and 0.8V greater than the output
voltage (see Dropout specifications).
V
CONTROL
(Pin 4/3):
This pin is the supply pin for the
control circuitry of the device. The current flow into this
pin will be about 1% of the output current. For the device
to regulate, the voltage at this pin must be between 1.0V
and 1.3V greater than the output voltage (see Dropout
specifications).
V
OUT
(Pin 3/4):
This is the power output of the device.
