OUT: Output. The output supplies power to the load. A
minimum output capacitor of 10µF is required to prevent
oscillations. Larger output capacitors will be
required for applications with large transient loads to limit
peak voltage transients. See the Applications Information
section for more information on output capacitance and
reverse output characteristics.
SENSE: Sense. For fixed voltage versions of the LT1963
(LT1963-1.5/LT1963-1.8/LT1963-2.5/LT1963-3.3), the
SENSE pin is the input to the error amplifier. Optimum
regulation will be obtained at the point where the SENSE
pin is connected to the OUT pin of the regulator. In critical
applications, small voltage drops are caused by the resis-
tance (R
These may be eliminated by connecting the SENSE pin to
the output at the load as shown in Figure 1 (Kelvin Sense
Connection). Note that the voltage drop across the exter-
nal PC traces will add to the dropout voltage of the regu-
lator. The SENSE pin bias current is 600µA at the nominal
rated output voltage. The SENSE pin can be pulled below
ground (as in a dual supply system where the regulator
load is returned to a negative supply) and still allow the
device to start and operate.

LOAD
ADJ: Adjust. For the adjustable LT1963, this is the input to
the error amplifier. This pin is internally clamped to ±7V.
It has a bias current of 3µA which flows into the pin. The
ADJ pin voltage is 1.21V referenced to ground and the
output voltage range is 1.21V to 20V.
SHDN: Shutdown. The SHDN pin is used to put the LT1963
regulators into a low power shutdown state. The output
will be off when the SHDN pin is pulled low. The SHDN pin
can be driven either by 5V logic or open-collector logic
with a pull-up resistor. The pull-up resistor is required to
supply the pull-up current of the open-collector gate,
normally several microamperes, and the SHDN pin cur-
rent, typically 3µA. If unused, the SHDN pin must be
connected to V
shutdown state if the SHDN pin is not connected.
IN: Input. Power is supplied to the device through the IN
pin. A bypass capacitor is required on this pin if the device
is more than six inches away from the main input filter
capacitor. In general, the output impedance of a battery
rises with frequency, so it is advisable to include a bypass
capacitor in battery-powered circuits. A bypass capacitor
in the range of 1µF to 10µF is sufficient. The LT1963 regu-
lators are designed to withstand reverse voltages on the IN
pin with respect to ground and the OUT pin. In the case of
a reverse input, which can happen if a battery is plugged
in backwards, the device will act as if there is a diode in
series with its input. There will be no reverse current flow
into the regulator and no reverse voltage will appear at the
load. The device will protect both itself and the load.
Exposed Pad: GND. The Exposed Pad (FE Package) is
ground and must be soldered to the PCB for rated thermal
performance.
