DESCRIPTION
The TK73200 is a controller IC for an adjustable low dropout voltage regulator. The TK73200 and the external PNP power transistor provide adjustable output voltages from 2 to 12 V and output current from 100 m A 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.
