ADP3336
THEORY OF OPERATION
The new anyCAP LDO ADP3336 uses a single control loop for
regulation and reference functions. The output voltage is sensed
by a resistive voltage divider consisting of R1 and R2 which is
varied to provide the available output voltage option. Feedback
is taken from this network by way of a series diode (D1) and a
second resistor divider (R3 and R4) to the input of an amplifier.
A very high gain error amplifier is used to control this loop. The
amplifier is constructed in such a way that equilibrium pro-
duces a large, temperature-proportional input, “offset voltage”
that is repeatable and very well controlled. The temperature-
proportional offset voltage is combined with the complementary
diode voltage to form a “virtual bandgap” voltage, implicit in
the network, although it never appears explicitly in the circuit.
Ultimately, this patented design makes it possible to control
the loop with only one amplifier. This technique also improves
the noise characteristics of the amplifier by providing more flexibil-
ity on the trade-off of noise sources that leads to a low noise design.
The R1, R2 divider is chosen in the same ratio as the bandgap
voltage to the output voltage. Although the R1, R2 resistor divider
is loaded by the diode D1 and a second divider consisting of R3
and R4, the values can be chosen to produce a temperature stable
output. This unique arrangement specifically corrects for the
loading of the divider thus avoiding the error resulting from
base current loading in conventional circuits.
The patented amplifier controls a new and unique noninverting
driver that drives the pass transistor, Q1. The use of this special
noninverting driver enables the frequency compensation to
include the load capacitor in a pole-splitting arrangement to
achieve reduced sensitivity to the value, type, and ESR of the
load capacitance.
Most LDOs place very strict requirements on the range of ESR
values for the output capacitor because they are difficult to stabilize
due to the uncertainty of load capacitance and resistance. More-
over, the ESR value, required to keep conventional LDOs stable,
changes depending on load and temperature. These ESR limita-
tions make designing with LDOs more difficult because of their
unclear specifications and extreme variations over temperature.
With the ADP3336 anyCAP LDO, this is no longer true. It can
be used with virtually any good quality capacitor, with no con-
straint on the minimum ESR. This innovative design allows the
circuit to be stable with just a small 1 µF capacitor on the out-
put. Additional advantages of the pole-splitting scheme include

superior line noise rejection and very high regulator gain, which
leads to excellent line and load regulation. An impressive ± 1.8%
accuracy is guaranteed over line, load, and temperature.
Additional features of the circuit include current limit and ther-
mal shutdown.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Capacitor Selection
Output Capacitors: as with any micropower device, output
transient response is a function of the output capacitance. The
ADP3336 is stable with a wide range of capacitor values, types
and ESR (anyCAP). A capacitor as low as 1 µF is all that is
needed for stability; larger capacitors can be used if high output
current surges are anticipated. The ADP3336 is stable with
extremely low ESR capacitors (ESR ≈ 0), such as multilayer
ceramic capacitors (MLCC) or OSCON. Note that the effective
capacitance of some capacitor types may fall below the mini-
mum at cold temperature. Ensure that the capacitor provides
more than 1 µF at minimum temperature.
Input Bypass Capacitor
An input bypass capacitor is not strictly required but is advisable
in any application involving long input wires or high source
impedance. Connecting a 1 µF capacitor from IN to ground
reduces the circuit's sensitivity to PC board layout. If a larger
value output capacitor is used, then a larger value input capaci-
tor is also recommended.
Noise Reduction
A noise reduction capacitor (C
the output and the feedback pin to further reduce the noise by
6 dB–10 dB (TPC 18). Low leakage capacitors in 100 pF–500 pF
range provide the best performance. Since the feedback pin (FB)
is internally connected to a high impedance node, any connection
to this node should be carefully done to avoid noise pickup from
external sources. The pad connected to this pin should be as
small as possible and long PC board traces are not recommended.
When adding a noise reduction capacitor, maintain a mini-
mum load current of 1 mA when not in shutdown.
