IN
from 2.2 V to 18 V)

DESCRIPTION
The CAT102 is a low-voltage reference and amplifier.
Designed for the control loop of low-voltage power
supplies, the reference voltage has been designed for
600 mV. Over a temperature from -40°C to 85°C, the
reference voltage is within 8 mV of the nominal
600mV. In addition, the error amplifier output and the
supply voltage pin (IN) are on separate pins.
Power supply rejection is a high 45 dB at 300 kHz.
The output, OUT, can sink 20 mA at a maximum
saturation voltage of 250 mV.
When combined with an optocoupler, the CAT102 can
be used as an error amplifier that controls the
feedback loop in isolated low-output voltage switching
power supplies.

CAT102
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The CAT102 adjustable shunt regulator features
isolated supply inputs and outputs, ideal for isolated
power-supply applications using an optocoupler in
the feedback path. The CAT102 sinks 20 mA with
V
OUT
at 0.3 V. The wide input supply range allows
the device to operate from 2.2 V to 18 V. The
CAT102 compares the FB input to a precision
600mV reference. If the FB input is low, the OUT pin
sinks no current. If FB rises above 600 mV, the OUT
pin sinks up to 20 mA.
Figure 1 shows the CAT102 configured as a shunt
regulator. To generate an output voltage of 0.6 V,
the FB pin has to be directly connected to the OUT
pin. A 1.0 µF capacitor from OUT to GND is
recommended when the output voltage is 0.6 V. A
resistor-divider connected from OUT to GND is used
to produce a higher output voltage as set by the
following equation:
V
OUT
= (1 + R
1
/R
2
) x 0.6 V
The current limit can be adjusted by using a resistor R3
connected between the IN and OUT pins. For example,
a 3.3 V supply V
IN
is associated with R
3
= 135
Ω,
and a
10 V supply works best with R
3
= 470
Ω.
The CAT102
shunt regulator is limited to low-current applications with
the OUT pin capable of sinking up to 20 mA max.
