Instructions for Use:

1. Supply Voltage (Vcc):

   • The NJM2073M operates within a supply voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V. Ensure that the input voltage is within this range to avoid damage to the device.

2. Quiescent Current (IQ):

   • The quiescent current is typically 2.8mA when the supply voltage is 5V and there is no load. This is important for power budgeting in low-power applications.

3. Output Voltage (Vout):

   • The output voltage is regulated to be between 4.0V and 5.0V when the supply voltage is 5V and there is no load. Ensure that the output voltage meets the requirements of your application.

4. Output Current (Iout):

   • The device can provide a maximum output current of 500mA with a typical value of 300mA when the supply voltage is 5V and the dropout voltage is 1V. Design your circuit to ensure that the load does not exceed this limit.

5. Dropout Voltage (VD):

   • The dropout voltage is the difference between the input and output voltages when the device is operating at its maximum output current. It ranges from 1.0V to 2.0V. Ensure that the input voltage is sufficiently higher than the desired output voltage to maintain regulation.

6. Line Regulation:

   • The line regulation is the change in output voltage due to changes in the input voltage. It is typically 0.01% over the operating range. This ensures that the output voltage remains stable even if the input voltage fluctuates.

7. Load Regulation:

   • The load regulation is the change in output voltage due to changes in the load current. It is typically 0.01% over the operating range. This ensures that the output voltage remains stable even if the load current varies.

8. Ripple Rejection:

   • The ripple rejection is the ability of the device to suppress input voltage ripple. It ranges from 60dB to 80dB over a frequency range of 10Hz to 100kHz. This helps in maintaining a clean output voltage in noisy environments.

9. Thermal Shutdown (TSD):

   • The device has thermal shutdown protection that activates at approximately 160°C to prevent damage due to overheating. Ensure proper heat dissipation and cooling in high-power applications.

10. Short-Circuit Protection (SCP):

    • The device includes short-circuit protection to prevent damage in case of a short circuit at the output. However, it is still recommended to use appropriate fuses or current-limiting resistors in the design to further protect the device.

Additional Notes:

• Always refer to the datasheet for the most accurate and detailed information.
• Ensure proper PCB layout and component selection to optimize performance and reliability.
• Use capacitors as specified in the datasheet to stabilize the output and filter noise.
