UTC UC621XX
BOOSTING VOLTAGE
REGULATORS
DESCRIPTION
The UTC UC621XX is a positive output voltage regulator
that can supply up to 1A of output current using an external
transistor. Low power and high accuracy are achieved
through CMOS process and laser trimming technologies.
The series consists of a high precision voltage reference,
an error correction circuit and a short-circuit protected output
driver.
In stand-by mode, supply current can be dramatically cut.
Since the input-output voltage differential is small, loss
control efficiency is good.
The UTC UC621XX is particularly suited for use with
battery operated portable products, and products where
supply current regulation is required.

OPERATIONAL EXPLANATION
Functional Description
Output voltage (V
OUT
) can be fixed by revising the external transistor's base current. This can be done by
comparing the detected voltage level and the set voltage power supply level.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Suggestions for External Comporients
1. PNP Transistor
The selection of a transistor should take into account output current, input voltage and power dissipation for each
specific application. It is recommended that a transistor that has a low output saturated voltage (V
CE
) and high h
FE
characteristics be used.
2. R
B
Resistor
Although the IC unit is protected by a base current remitter circuit, it is recommended that a resistor (R
B
) be
connected between the transistor's base and the IC's EXT pin to protect the transistor.
Required output current can be calculated using the following equation although characteristic variations and
conditions of use should be carefully checked before use. The following equation also indicates the conditions
needed to obtain I
OUT
(max.) at V
IN
(min.). However, the larger the input current, the larger the output current (I
OUT
)
that can be obtained.

3. R
BE
Resistor, C
L
Capacitor
To prevent oscillation due to output load variation, use of a phase compensation capacitor C
L
is recommended.
Please use a Tantalum capacitor of at least 10
μ
F. Please also use an R
BE
resistor of less than 47kΩ.
An R
BE
resistor of between 20kΩ and 47kΩ is recommended for less power consumption.
4. Input Impedance
In order to control oscillation brought about as a result of impedance at the power supply line, connect a capacitor
