General Description
The
MAX882/MAX883/MAX884 linear regulators maxi-
mize battery life by combining ultra-low supply currents
and low dropout voltages. They feature 200mA output
current capability at up to +125°C junction temperature
and come in a 1.5W SOIC package. The 1.5W package
(compared to 0.47W for standard SOIC packages)
allows a wider operating range for the input voltage and
output current. The MAX882/MAX883/MAX884 use a p-
channel MOSFET pass transistor to maintain a low 11µA
(15µA max) supply current from no-load to the full
200mA output. Unlike earlier bipolar regulators, there are
no PNP base current losses that increase with output
current. In dropout, the MOSFET does not suffer from
excessive base currents that occur when PNP transistors
go into saturation. Typical dropout voltages are 220mV
at 5V and 200mA, or 320mV at 3.3V and 200mA.
The MAX882 features a 7µA standby mode that disables
the output but keeps the reference, low-battery compara-
tor, and biasing circuitry alive. The MAX883/MAX884 fea-
ture a shutdown (OFF) mode that turns off all circuitry,
reducing supply current to less than 1µA. All three
devices include a low-battery-detection comparator, fold-
back current limiting, reverse-current protection, and
thermal-overload protection.
The output is preset at 3.3V for the MAX882/MAX884
and 5V for the MAX883. In addition, all devices employ
Dual Mode™ operation, allowing user-adjustable outputs
from 1.25V to 11V using external resistors. The input volt-
age supply range is 2.7V to 11.5V.
For low-dropout linear regulators with output currents up
to 500mA, refer to the MAX603/MAX604 data sheet.

Note 1:
Electrical specifications are measured by pulse testing and are guaranteed for a junction temperature (T
J
) within the operat-
ing temperature range, unless otherwise noted. Specifications to -40°C are guaranteed by design and not production tested.
Note 2:
(V
IN
- V
OUT
) is limited to keep the product (I
OUT
x (V
IN
- V
OUT
)) from exceeding the package power dissipation limits. See
Figure 5. Therefore, the combination of high output current and high supply voltage is not tested.
Note 3:
Dropout Voltage is (V
IN
- V
OUT
) when V
OUT
falls to 100mV below its nominal value at V
IN
= (V
OUT
+ 2V). For example, the
MAX883 is tested by measuring the V
OUT
at V
IN
= 7V, then V
IN
is lowered until V
OUT
falls 100mV below the measured value.
The difference (V
IN
- V
OUT
) is then measured and defined as
∆V
DO
.
Note 4:
Since standby mode inhibits the output but keeps all biasing circuitry alive, the Standby Quiescent Current is similar to the
normal operating quiescent current.
Note 5:
Foldback Current Limit was characterized by pulse testing to remain below the maximum junction temperature (not
production tested).
Note 6:
The Reverse-Current Protection Threshold is the output/input differential voltage (V
OUT
- V
IN
) at which reverse-current
protection switchover occurs and the pass transistor is turned off. See the section
Reverse-Current Protection
in the
Detailed
Description.
Note 7:
Noise is tested using a bandpass amplifier with two poles at 10Hz and two poles at 10kHz.
