CAT6219
500 mA CMOS LDO
Regulator
Description
The CAT6219 is a 500 mA CMOS low dropout regulator that
provides fast response time during load current and line voltage
changes.
The quick-start feature allows the use of an external bypass
capacitor to reduce the overall output noise without affecting the
turn-on time of just 150
ms.
With zero shutdown current and low ground current of 55
mA
typical, the CAT6219 is ideal for battery-operated devices with supply
voltages from 2.3 V to 5.5 V. An internal under voltage lockout circuit
disables the output at supply voltages under 2.15 V typical.
The CAT6219 offers 1% initial accuracy and low dropout voltage,
300 mV typical at 500 mA. Stable operation is provided with a small
value ceramic capacitor, reducing required board space and
component cost.
Other features include current limit and thermal protection.
The LDO is available in fixed and adjustable output in the low
profile (1 mm max height) 5−lead TSOT23, 6−pad 1.5 mm x 1.5 mm
WDFN and in the 6−pad 2 mm x 2 mm TDFN packages.

Function
Supply voltage input.

resistor is provided.
Optional bypass capacitor connection for noise
reduction and PSRR enhancing.
Adjustable input. Feedback pin connected to
resistor divider.
LDO Output Voltage.
To be connected to the ground plane on PCB
Figure 2. Adjustable Output LDO
EN
is the enable control logic (active high) for the regulator
output. It has a 2.5 MW pull−down resistor, which assures
that if EN pin is left open, the circuit is disabled.
VOUT
is the LDO regulator output. A small 2.2
mF
ceramic
bypass capacitor is required between the VOUT pin and
ground. For better transient response, its value can be
increased to 4.7
mF.
The capacitor should be located near the device. For the
SOT23-5 package, a continuous 500 mA output current may
turn-on the thermal protection. A 250
W
internal shutdown
switch discharges the output capacitor in the no-load
condition.
GND
is the ground reference for the LDO. The pin must be
connected to the ground plane on the PCB.
BYP
is the reference bypass pin. An optional 0.01
mF
capacitor can be connected between BYP pin and GND to
reduce the output noise and enhance the PSRR at high
frequency.
ADJ
is the adjustable input pin for the adjustable LDO. The
pin is connected to the resistor voltage divider.
