GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TC1055 is a high accuracy (typically
±0.5%)
CMOS
upgrade for older (bipolar) low dropout regulators. De-
signed specifically for battery-operated systems, the
TC1055’s CMOS construction eliminates wasted ground
current, significantly extending battery life. Total supply
current is typically 50µA at full load (20
to 60 times lower
than in bipolar regulators!).
TC1055 key features include ultra low noise operation,
very low dropout voltage (typically 200mV at full load) and
internal feed-forward compensation for fast response to
step changes in load. An error output (ERROR) is asserted
when the TC1055 is out-of-regulation (due to a low input
voltage or excessive output current). ERROR can be used
as a low battery warning or as a processor RESET signal
(with the addition of an external RC network). Supply current
is reduced to less than 1µA, and both V
OUT
and ERROR
are disabled when the shutdown input is low. The TC1055
incorporates both over-temperature and over-current pro-
tection.
The TC1055 is stable with an output capacitor of only
1µF and has a maximum output current of 100mA. For
higher output current regulators, please see the TC1107,
TC1108 (I
OUT
= 300mA) data sheets.
