Accuracy when VOUT is connected directly to ADJ. When VOUT voltage is set by external feedback resistors, absolute accuracy in adjust mode depends on the tolerances
of the resistors used.

Based on an endpoint calculation using 10 mA and 2 A loads. See Figure 6 for typical load regulation performance.

Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output voltage differential when the input voltage is set to the nominal output voltage. This applies only to output voltages
above 1.6 V.
5
Start-up time is defined as the time between the rising edge of EN to VOUT being at 95% of its nominal value.
6
Current-limit threshold is defined as the current at which the output voltage drops to 90% of the specified typical value. For example, the current limit for a 1.0 V
output voltage is defined as the current that causes the output voltage to drop to 90% of 1.0 V, or 0.9 V.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The ADP1740/ADP1741 are low dropout linear regulators The ADP1740 is available in seven fixed output voltage options
that use an advanced, proprietary architecture to provide high from 0.75 V to 2.5 V. The ADP1740 allows for connection of an
power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) and excellent line and load external soft start capacitor, which controls the output voltage
transient response with only a small 4.7 µF ceramic output capac- ramp during startup. The ADP1741 is an adjustable version with
itor. Both devices operate from a 1.6 V to 3.6 V input rail and an output voltage that can be set to a value from 0.75 V to 3.3 V

transistor, 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 feed-
back 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.

VIN
1V/DIV The ADP1740/ADP1741 have additional circuitry to protect
against reverse current flow from VOUT to VIN. For a typical
LDO with a PMOS pass device, there is an intrinsic body diode

between VIN and VOUT. When VIN is greater than VOUT, this
500mV/DIV diode is reverse-biased. If VOUT is greater than VIN, the intrinsic
diode becomes forward-biased and conducts current from
