APPLICATION NOTES
OUTPUT VOLTAGE
The MSK 5972RH develops a nominal 1.25V reference voltage
between the output and adjustment terminal. The reference volt-
age is dropped across program resistor R1 and, since the volt-
age is constant, a constant current then flows through the out-
put set resistor R2. Since the current from the adjustment termi-
nal represents an error in the programmed output voltage, the
MSK 5972RH was designed to minimize I
ADJ
and make it very
constant with line and load changes. To do this, all quiescent
operating current is returned to the output establishing a mini-
mum load current requirement. If there is insufficient load on the
output, the output will rise. Figure 1 shows the output voltage
calculations.
LOAD REGULATION
The MSK 5972RH is capable of providing extremely good load
regulation but a few precautions are needed to obtain maximum
performance. The current set resistor connected between the
adjustment terminal and the output terminal should be tied di-
rectly to the output pin as close to the case of the regulator as
possible rather than near the load. This eliminates package pin
and trace drops from appearing effectively in series with the
reference and degrading regulation. For example, a 5V regulator
with 0.05Ω resistance between the regulator and the current set
resistor will droop 225mV at 1A due to package pin and trace
resistance. The amount of droop can be calculated as follows:
(Vout at 5mA) - (1.250-(0.05Ω*IL))*(1+R2/R1). The ground
of R2 can be returned near the ground of the load to provide
remote ground sensing and improve load regulation. Figure 2A
shows the effect of resistance between the regulator and 240Ω
set resistor.

EXTERNAL CAPACITORS
Input bypassing with a 1uF tantalum in parallel with a 0.1uF
ceramic on the input is suitable in most applications. To maxi-
mize transient response and minimize input supply transients
more input capacitance can be added. The adjustment terminal
can be bypassed to ground on the MSK 5972RH to improve
ripple rejection. This bypass capacitor prevents ripple from be-
ing amplified at higher output voltages. The impedance of the
adjust pin capacitor at the ripple frequency should be less than
the value of R1. For most application a 10μF bypass capacitor
will provide sufficient ripple rejection at any output level. In-
creases over 10μF do not appreciably improve the ripple rejec-
tion at frequencies above 120Hz. Output bypassing with 1μF
low ESR tantalum in parallel with a 0.1μF ceramic attached as
close to the regulator's output as possible is best. This will ef-
fectively lower the regulator output impedance, increase tran-
sient response and eliminate any oscillations. Any increase of
the load capacitance larger than 1μF will merely improve the
loop stability and output impedance. See Figure 3 for typical
application schematic.

INPUT VOLTAGE
The MSK 5972RH can operate over a wide input voltage range.
Vin minimum=Vout+dropout to a (Vin-Vout) maximum of 40V.
When operating near the minimum input voltage level sufficient
overhead must be maintained to eliminate the regulator from drop-
ping out of regulation, reference the dropout curves in the typical
performance section. The input level also effects the maximum
current that the MSK 5972RH can supply, this too can be found
in the typical performance section. Dropout, output current and
power dissipation must all be considered when selecting the in-
put line level.
HEAT SINKING
To determine if a heat sink is required for your application
and if so, what type, refer to the thermal model and govern-
ing equation below.
Governing Equation: Tj = Pd x (R
θ
jc + R
θ
cs + R
θ

WHERE
Tj = Junction Temperature
Pd = Total Power Dissipation

EXAMPLE:
This example demonstrates an analysis on a 10V regulator
where the output current is at 0.5 amp and the input is
15V.
Conditions for MSK 5972RH:
Vin = +15V; Iout = 0.5A
1.) Assume 45° heat spreading model.
2.) Find regulator power dissipation:
Pd = (Vin - Vout)(Iout)
Pd = (15V-10V)(0.5A)
Pd = 2.5W
3.) For conservative design, set Tj = +125°C Max.
4.) For this example, worst case Ta= +90°C.
5.) R
θ
jc = 4.5°C/W from the Electrical Specification Table.
6.) R
θ
cs= 0.15°C/W for most thermal greases.
7.) Rearrange governing equation to solve for R

sa:

cs)
= (125°C-90°C)/2.5W - 4.5°C/W - 0.15°C/
= 9.3°C/W
In this case the result is 9.3°C/W. Therefore, a heat sink
with a thermal resistance of no more than 9.3°C/W must be
used in this application to maintain regulator circuit junction
temperature under 125°C.
PROTECTION DIODES
When external capacitors are used with any IC regulator it is
sometimes necessary to add protection diodes to prevent the
capacitors from discharging through low current points into the
regulator. Most 10μF capacitors have low enough internal se-
ries resistance to deliver 20A spikes when shorted. Although
the surge is short, there is enough energy to stress MSK 5972RH.
When an output capacitor is connected to a regulator and the
input is shorted or crowbarred, the output capacitor will dis-
charge into the output of the regulator. The discharge current
depends on the value of the capacitor, the output voltage of the
regulator, and the rate of decrease of VIN. Figure 3 shows an
MSK 5972RH with protection diodes included. D2 is only re-
quired if the adjust pin has external capacitance tied to it .
