500mA CMOS LDO
Regulator
Note 1:
Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
Note 2:
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
CYT6118
Note 3:
The maximum allowable power dissipation at any TA (ambient temperature) is calculated using: P
D(MAX)
= (T
J(MAX)
- T
A
)/θ
JA
. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the
regulator will go into thermal shutdown. See Table 1 and the “Thermal Considerations” section for details.
Note 4:
Output voltage temperature coefficient is the worst-case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.
Note 5:
Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Parts are tested for
load regulation in the load range from 100µA to 500mA. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are
covered by the thermal regulation specification.
Note 6:
Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its
nominal value measured at 1V differential.

Application Hints
Like any Low dropout regulator,
CYT6118
requires
external capacitors to ensure stability. The external
capacitors must be carefully selected to ensure the
performances.
CYT6118
Thermal Consideration
It is important that the thermal limit of the package
should not be exceeded. The
CYT6118
has built-in
thermal protection. When the thermal limit is
exceeded, the IC will enter protection, and the V
OUT
will be reset to zero. The power dissipation for a
given application can be calculated as follows:
The Power Dissipation (P
D
) is
P
D
= I
OUT
* [V
IN
– V
OUT
]
The thermal limit of the package is then limited to
P
D(MAX)
= [T
J
– T
A
]/θ
JA
where T
J
is the junction
temperature, T
A
is ambient temperature, and
θ
JA
is
around 120°C/W for
CYT6118. CYT6118
is designed
to enter thermal protection at 150°C. For example, if
T
A
is 25°C then the max P
D
is limited to about 1W.
In other words, if I
OUT(MAX)
= 500mA, then [V
IN
–
V
OUT
] can not exceed 2.1V.
Input Capacitor:
An Input Capacitor of at least 10uF is required.
Ceramic or Tantalum can be used. The value can
be increased without upper limit.
Output Capacitor:
An Output Capacitor is required for look stability. It
must be located no more than 1cm away from the
V
OUT
pin, and connected directly between V
OUT
and
GND pins. The minimum value is 10uF but once
again its value can be increased without limit.
