APPLICATION DESCRIPTIONS
1. Output voltage adjustment
Like most regulators, the UTC1117 regulates the output by comparing the output voltage to an internally generated reference voltage. On the adjustable version, the VREF is available externally as 1.25V between VOUT and ADJ. The voltage ratio formed by R1 and R2 should be set to conduct 10mA (minimum output load). The output voltage is given by the following equation: R2 VOUT=VREF(1+ )+LADJ R2 R1

provided internally.

2.Thermal Protection
UTC1117 has thermal protection which limits junction temperature to 150C. However, device functionality is only guaranteed to a maximum junction temperature of +125C. The power dissipation and junction temperature for UTC1117 in DPAK package are given by

Note: TJUNCTION must not exceed 125C

3.Current Limit Protection

UTC1117 is protected against overload conditions. Current protection is triggered at typically 1.5A..

4.Stability and Load Regulation

LINEAR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT

UTC1117 requires a capacitor from VOUT to GND to provide compensation feedback to the internal gain stage. This is to ensure stability at the output terminal. Typically, a Note: It is important that the ESR for this capacitor does not exceed 0.5. The output capacitor does not have a theoretical upper for high current regulator design.
RP Parasitic Line Resistance VIN 3 IN ADJ 1 OUT 2 R1 (connect R1 to case) RL

For the adjustable version, the best load regulation is accomplished when the top for the resistor divider (R1) is connected directly to the output pin of the UTC1117. When so connected, RP is not multiplied by the divider ratio. For fixed output versions, the top of R1 is internally connected to the output and ground pin can be connected to low side of the load.
Connect R2 to load

5.Thermal Consideration
The UTC1117 series contain thermal limiting circuitry designed to protect itself for over-temperature conditions, maximum junction temperature ratings must not be exceeded. As mention in thermal protection section, we need to consider all sources of thermal resistance between junction and ambient. It includes junction-to-case, case-to-heatsink interface and heat sink thermal resistance itself. Junction-to-case thermal resistance is specified from the IC junction to the bottom of the case directly below the die. Proper mounting is required to ensure the best possible thermal flow from this area of the package to the heat sink. The case of all devices in this series is electrically connected to the output. Therefore, if the case of the device must be electrically isolated, a thermally conductive spacer is recommended.
