The AIC1723A is a 3-pin low dropout linear
regulator. The superior characteristics of the
AIC1723A include zero base current loss,
very low dropout voltage, and 2% accuracy
output voltage. Typical ground current remains approximately 65μA, for loading
ranging from zero to maximum. Dropout
voltage turns substantially low when output
current is 500mA. Built-in output current
limiting and thermal limiting provide maximal
protection to the AIC1723A against fault
conditions.
The AIC1723A is available with popular SOT-
23, SOT-223, SOT-89 and TO-252 packages.

Note 1: To avoid output oscillation, aluminum electrolytic output capacitor is recommended and ceramic capacitor is not suggested.
Note 2: Specifications are production tested at T A =25°C. Specifications over the -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range are assured by design, characterization and correlation with Statistical Quality Controls (SQC).
Note 3: Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low ON time. Note 4: Current limit is measured by pulsing a short time.
Note 5: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100mV below the value measured with a 1V differential.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
INPUT-OUTPUT CAPACITORS
Linear regulators require input and output capacitors to maintain stability. Input capacitor at 1μF with 4.7uF aluminum electrolytic output capacitor is recommended.
POWER DISSIPATION
The AIC1723A obtains thermal-limiting circuitry, which is designed to protect the device against overload condition. For continuous load condition, maximum rating of junction temperature must not be exceeded. It is important to pay more attention in thermal resistance. It includes junction to case, junction
to ambient. The maximum power dissipation of AIC1723A depends on the thermal resistance of its case and circuit board, the temperature difference between the die junction and ambient air, and the rate of airflow. The rate of temperature rise is greatly affected by the mounting pad configuration on the PCB, the board material, and the ambient temperature. When the IC mounting with good thermal conductivity is used, the junction temperature will be low even when large power dissipation applies.
The power dissipation across the device is
P = I OUT (V IN-V OUT).
The maximum power dissipation is:

Where T J-max is the maximum allowable junction temperature (125°C), and T A is the ambient temperature suitable in application.
As a general rule, the lower temperature is, the better reliability of the device is. So the PCB mounting pad should provide maximum thermal conductivity to maintain low device temperature. GND pin performs a dual function for providing an electrical connection to ground and channeling heat away. Therefore, connecting the GND pin to ground with a large pad or ground plane would increase the power dissipation and reduce the device temperature.
