Description
These three terminal positive adjustable voltage
regulators are designed to provide 1.5A with higher
efficiency than conventional voltage regulators. The
devices are designed to operate to 1.5V input to
output differential and the dropout voltage is
specified as a function of load current. Devices are
pin compatible with older three terminal regulators
and are supplied in the easy-to-use hermetic metal
D2 package. These devices are ideally suited for
Military applications where small size, hermeticity
and high reliability are required.

Notes
1. Load and line regulation are measured at a constant junction temperature by low duty cycle pulse testing.
2. Line and load regulation are guaranteed up to the maximum power dissipation. Power dissipation is determined by
the input/output differential voltage and output current. Guaranteed maximum power dissipation will not be available
over the full input/output voltage range.
3. I
FULL LOAD
curve is defined as the minimum value of current limit as a function of input to output voltage.
Note that power dissipation is only achievable over a limited range of input to output voltage.
4. Dropout voltage is specified over the full output current range of the device.

OM186SR
Application Notes:
Stability
The OM186SR Series requires the use of an output capacitor as part of the device frequency compensation.
For all operating conditions, the addition of 150µF aluminum electrolytic or a 22µF solid tantalum on the
output will ensure stability. Normally, capacitors much smaller than this can be used. Many different types
of capacitors with widely varying characteristics are available. These capacitors differ in capacitor tolerance
(sometimes ranging up to
±100%),
equivalent series resistance, and capacitance temperature coefficient.
The 150µF or 22µF values given will ensure stability.
When the adjustment terminal is bypassed to improve the ripple rejection, the requirement for an output
capacitor increases. The values of 22µF tantalum or 150µF aluminum cover all cases of bypassing the
adjustment terminal. Without bypassing the adjustment terminal, smaller capacitors can be used with
equally good results and the table below shows approximately what size capacitors are needed to ensure
stability.
Normally, capacitor values on the order of 100µF are used in the output of many regulators to ensure good
transient response with heavy load current changes. Output capacitance can be increased without limit and
larger values of output capacitor further improve stability and transient response of the regulators.

Output Voltage - Adjustable Regulators
The OM186SR devices develop a 1.25V reference voltage between the output and the adjust terminal (see
Fig 4). By placing a resistor, R1 between these two terminals, a constant current is caused to flow through
R1 and down through R2 to set the overall output voltage. Normally this current is the specified minimum
load current of 10mA. Because I
ADJ
is very small and constant when compared with the current through R1,
it represents a small error and can usually be ignored.
