In the typical post regulation application VBIAS is Output Voltage: 0.5V to 2.2V in 100mV steps directly connected to the battery (range 2.5V...5.5V) and VIN is supplied by the output voltage of a host DC-DC Converter (range Output Voltage Accuracy: 1.5% 0.7V...4.5V). Dropout Voltage 135mV 350mA load The device offers excellent dropout and transient features combined Max. Output Current: 350mA with very low quiescent currents. In shutdown (Enable pin pulled low), the device turns off and reduces quiescent current consumption Load Transient Response: 15mV (typ) to 10nA (typ) at both VBIAS and VIN terminals. Superior Efficiency In shutdown, a 100ohms (typ) discharge path is connected between Low Shutdown Current: 10nA output and ground to provide rapid discharge of the overall load capacitance connected to the AS1372 output terminal. Auto- High PSRR: >80dB 10Hz-1kHz, 60db 100kHz discharge minimizes the possibility that VOUT > VIN during Noise Voltage: 50VRMS from 10Hz to 100kHz shutdown. When VOUT > VIN, reverse current flows through the Integrated Overtemperature / Overcurrent Protection inherent body diode of the N-channel series pass transistor. Chip Enable Input The AS1372 also features internal protection against over- temperature, over-current and under-voltage conditions. Operating Temperature Range: -40C to +85C The device is available in a tiny 5-bump CS-WLP package and is 5-bumps CS-WLP Package qualified for operation over the -40C to +85C temperature range. The device is available in fixed output voltages from 0.5V up to 2.2V 3 Applications in 100mV steps (50mV from 0.5V to 1.1V). See Ordering Information on page 18. The devices are ideal for powering cordless and mobile phones, MP3 players, PDAs, hand-held computers, digital cameras, and any other hand-held and/or battery-powered device. Figure 1.
