DESCRIPTION
The LT
®
1117 is a positive low dropout regulator designed
to provide up to 800mA of output current. The device is
available in an adjustable version and fixed output voltages
of 2.85V, 3.3V and 5V. The 2.85V version is designed
specifically to be used in Active Terminators for the SCSI
bus. All internal circuitry is designed to operate down to 1V
input to output differential. Dropout voltage is guaranteed
at a maximum of 1.2V at 800mA, decreasing at lower load
currents. On chip trimming adjusts the reference/output
voltage to within ± 1%. Current limit is also trimmed in
order to minimize the stress on both the regulator and the
power source circuitry under overload conditions.
The low profile surface mount SOT-223 package allows the
device to be used in applications where space is limited. The
LT1117 requires a minimum of 10μF of output capacitance
for stability. Output capacitors of this size or larger are
normally included in most regulator designs.
Unlike PNP type regulators where up to 10% of the output
current is wasted as quiescent current, the quiescent current
of the LT1117 flows into the load, increasing efficiency.

Note 1:
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2:
See thermal regulation specification for changes in output voltage
due to heating effects. Load regulation and line regulation are measured at
a constant junction temperature by low duty cycle pulse testing.
Note 3:
Dropout voltage is specified over the full output current range
of the device. Dropout voltage is defined as the minimum input/output
differential measured at the specified output current. Test points and limits
are also shown on the Dropout Voltage curve.
Note 4:
Minimum load current is defined as the minimum output current
required to maintain regulation.
