SC1531A Datasheet | SEMTECH

Description The SC1531(A) is designed to maintain a glitch-free 3.3V output when at least one of two inputs, 5V (VIN) and 3.3V (VAUX), is present. SC1531(A) Features Glitch-free transition between input sources Internal logic selects input source Gate drive for external PMOS bypass switch 5V detection with hysteresis 1% regulated output voltage accuracy 200m A load current capability (250m A for SC1531A) Remote sense SO-8 package u u u u Whenever VIN exceeds a predetermined threshold value, u the internal 3.3V linear regulator is enabled, and DR is u pulled high. u When VIN falls below a lower threshold value, DR is pulled u low and the internal linear regulator is turned off. DR has been designed to drive the gate of an external low threshold P-channel MOSFET, which can be used to connect the 3.3V supply directly to the regulator output. This ensures an uninterrupted 3.3V output even if VIN falls out of specification. A typical RDS(ON) of 400m W is remended (320m W for SC1531A). When both supplies are simultaneously available, the drive pin (DR) will be pulled High, turning off the external PMOS switch. The internal 5V detector has its upper threshold (for VIN rising) set to 4.18V (typical) while the lower threshold (for VIN falling) is at 4.05V (typical) giving a hysteresis of approximately 130m V. The SENSE pin, which is connected to the load, connects internally to the inverting input of the LDO error amplifier. It enables tight regulation of the load voltage (while the 5V supply is present) despite variations in load current. The SC1531(A) is available in the popular SO-8 surface mount package.
