GQ2131
Description
C M O S P o s i t i v e Vo l t a g e R e g u l a t o r
The GQ2131 is a fixed 1.2V of positive, linear regulators feature low quiescent current (60 A typ.) with low
dropout voltage, making them ideal for battery applications.
This rugged device has both Thermal Shutdown, and Current Fold-back to prevent device failure under the
“Worst” of operating conditions.
An additional feature is a “Power Good” detector, which pulls low when the output is out of regulation.
The GQ2131 is stable with an output capacitance of 2.2 F or greater.

Output Voltage
The GQ2131 of COMS regulator contains a PMOS pass transistor, voltage reference, error amplifier, over
-current protection, thermal shutdown and Power Good function.
The P-channel pass transistor receives data from the error amplifier, over-current shutdown, and thermal
protection circuits. During normal operation, the error amplifier compares the output voltage to a precision
reference. Over-current and Thermal shutdown circuits become active when the junction temperature exceeds
150 : , or the current exceeds 300mA. During thermal shutdown, the output voltage remains low. Normal
operation is restored when the junction temperature drops below 120 : .
The GQ2131 switches from voltage mode to current mode when the load exceeds the rated output current.
This prevents over-stress. The GQ2131 also incorporates current fold-back to reduce power dissipation when
the output is short circuited. This feature becomes active when the output drops below 0.8 volts, and reduces
the current flow by 65%. Full current is restored when the voltage exceeds 0.8 volts.
The GQ2131 is stable with an output capacitance to ground of 2.2 F or greater. Ceramic capacitors have the
lowest ESR, and will offer the best AC performance. Conversely, Aluminum Electrolytic capacitors exhibit the
highest ESR, resulting in the poorest AC response. Unfortunately, large value ceramic capacitors are
comparatively expensive. One option is to parallel a 0.1 F ceramic capacitor with a 10 F Aluminum Electrolytic.
The benefit is low ESR, high capacitance, and low overall cost.
A second capacitor is recommended between the input and ground to stabilize Vin. The input capacitor should
be at least 0.1 F to have a beneficial effect.
All capacitors should be placed in close proximity to the pins. A “Quiet” ground termination is desirable. This
can be achieved with a “Star” connection.
The Enable pin normally floats high. When actively, pulled low, the PMOS pass transistor shuts off, and all
internal circuits are powered down. In this state, the quiescent current is less than 1 A. This pin behaves much
like an electronic switch.

Power Good
The GQ2131 includes the Power Good feature. When the output is not within D
15% of the specified voltage, it
pulls low. This can occur under the following conditions:
1) Input Voltage too low.
2) During Over-Temperature.
3) During Over-Current.
4) If output is pulled up.
(Note: PG pin is an open-drain output.)
