THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADP122/ADP123 are low quiescent current, low-dropout
linear regulators that operate from 2.3 V to 5.5 V and can provide
up to 300 mA of output current. Drawing a low 170 μA of quies-
cent current (typical) at full load makes the ADP122/ADP123
ideal for battery-operated portable equipment. Shutdown current
consumption is typically 100 nA.
Optimized for use with small 1 μF ceramic capacitors, the
ADP122/ADP123 provide excellent transient performance.
Internally, the ADP122/ADP123 consist of a reference, an error
amplifier, a feedback voltage divider, and a PMOS pass transistor.
Output current is delivered via the PMOS pass device, which is
controlled by the error amplifier. The error amplifier compares
the reference voltage with the feedback voltage from the output
and amplifies the difference. If the feedback voltage is lower than
the reference voltage, the gate of the PMOS device is pulled lower,
allowing more current to pass and increasing the output voltage.
If the feedback voltage is higher than the reference voltage, the
gate of the PMOS device is pulled higher, allowing less current
to pass and decreasing the output voltage.
The adjustable ADP123 has an output voltage range of 0.8 V to
5.0 V. The output voltage is set by the ratio of two external resistors,
as shown in Figure 2. The device servos the output to maintain
the voltage at the ADJ pin at 0.5 V referenced to ground. The
current in R1 is then equal to 0.5 V/R2 and the current in R1 is
the current in R2 plus the ADJ pin bias current. The ADJ pin
bias current, 15 nA at 25°C, flows through R1 into the ADJ pin.
The output voltage can be calculated using the equation:
The value of R1 should be less than 200 kΩ to minimize errors
in the output voltage caused by the ADJ pin bias current. For
example, when R1 and R2 each equal 200 kΩ, the output voltage
is 1.0 V. The output voltage error introduced by the ADJ pin
bias current is 3 mV or 0.3%, assuming a typical ADJ pin bias
current of 15 nA at 25°C.

Note that in shutdown, the output is turned off and the divider
current is 0.
The ADP122/ADP123 use the EN pin to enable and disable the
VOUT pin under normal operating conditions. When EN is high,
VOUT turns on; when EN is low, VOUT turns off. For automatic
startup, EN can be tied to VIN.
