General Description
TS39150/1/2/3 are 1.5A ultra low dropout linear voltage regulators that provide low voltage, high current output from
an extremely small package. These regulator offers extremely low dropout (typically 400mV at 1.5A) and very low
ground current (typically 12mA at 1.5A).
TS39150/1/2/3 are fully protected against over current faults, reversed input polarity, reversed lead insertion, over
temperature operation, positive and negative transient voltage spikes, logic level enable control and error flag which
signals whenever the output falls out of regulation.
On the TS39150/1/2/3, the enable pin may be tied to V
IN
if it is not required for enable control.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Rating is limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. For guaranteed
specifications and test conditions see the Electrical Characteristics.
Note 2: The device is not guaranteed to operate outside its operating rating.

Note 4: The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, T

1.5A Ultra Low Dropout Voltage Regulator
with Multi-Function
Application Information
The TS3915x series are high performance with low dropout voltage regulator suitable for moderate to high current and
voltage regulator application. Its 630mV dropout voltage at full load and over temperature makes it especially valuable
in battery power systems and as high efficiency noise filters in post regulator applications. Unlike normal NPN
transistor design, where the base to emitter voltage drop and collector to emitter saturation voltage limit the minimum
dropout voltage, dropout performance of the PNP output of these devices is limited only by low V
CE
saturation voltage.
The TS3915x series is fully protected from damage due to fault conditions. Linear current limiting is provided. Output
current during overload conditions is constant. Thermal shutdown the device when the die temperature exceeds the
maximum safe operating temperature. Transient protection allows device survival even when the input voltage spikes
above and below nominal. The output structure of these regulators allows voltages in excess of the desired output
voltage to be applied without reverse current flow.
Output Capacitor Requirement
The TS3915x series requires an output capacitor to maintain stability and improve transient response is necessary.
The value of this capacitor is dependent upon the output current, lower currents allow smaller capacitors. TS3915x
series output capacitor selection is dependent upon the ESR of the output capacitor to maintain stability. When the
output capacitor is 10uF or greater, the output capacitor should have an ESR less than 2Ω. This will improve transient
response as well as promote stability. Ultra low ESR capacitors (<100mΩ), such as ceramic chip capacitors, may
promote instability. These very low ESR levels may cause an oscillation and/or under damped transient response. A
low ESR solid tantalum capacitor works extremely well and provides good transient response and stability over
temperature aluminum electrolytes can also be used, as long as the ESR of the capacitor is <2Ω. The value of the
output capacitor can be increased without limit. Higher capacitance values help to improve transient response and
ripple rejection and reduce output noise.
Input Capacitor Requirement
An input capacitor of 1uF or greater is recommended when the device is more than 4” away from the bulk AC supply
capacitance or when the supply is a battery. Small, surface mount, ceramic chip capacitors can be used for bypassing.
Larger values will help to improve ripple rejection by bypassing the input to the regulator, further improving the integrity
of the output voltage.
Minimum Load Current
The TS3915x series is specified between finite loads. If the output current is too small leakage currents dominate and
the output voltage rises. A 10mA minimum load current is necessary for proper regulation.
Adjustable Regulator Design
The adjustable regulator versions (TS39152) is allow to programming the output voltage anywhere between 1.25 and
the 16V maximum operating rating of the family.
Two resistors are used. Resistors can be quite large up to 1MΩ, because of the very high input impedance and low
bias current of the sense comparator, the resistor values are calculated by:
Where V
OUT
is the desired output voltage. Above application circuit shows component definition. Applications with
widely varying load currents may scale the resistors to draw the minimum load current required for proper operation.
