DESCRIPTION
The TK732xx is a controller IC for a low dropout voltage
regulator. The TK732xx and the external PNP power
transistor provide standard output voltages from 2 to 11 V
and output current from 100 mA to 5 A. By utilizing an
external PNP power transistor, low dropout voltage at high
current can be readily achieved. The internal electronic
switch can be controlled by TTL or CMOS logic levels. The
device is in the “on” state when the control pin is pulled to
a high logic level. A pin for a bypass capacitor, which
connects to the internal circuitry, is provided to lower the
overall output noise level.
The current limit characteristics can be configured as
continuous (constant current) or pulsed (cycling). An internal
thermal shutdown circuit limits the junction temperatures
to below 150
°C.
In the “off” mode, the output of the
regulator becomes a high impedance. This prevents the
output capacitor from being rapidly discharged for backup
to the load.
