DESCRIPTION The L4920 and L4921 are adjustable voltage regulators with a very low voltage drop (0.4V typ. at 0.4A Tj = 25°C), low quiescent current and comprehensive on-chip protection. These devices are protected againstload dump and field decay transients, polarity reversal and over heating. A foldback current limiter protects against load short circuits. The output voltage is adjustable throughan external divider from 1.25V to 20V. The minimum operating input voltage is 5.2V (TJ = 25°C). BLOCK DIAGRAM

These regulators are designed for automotive, industrial and consumer applications where low consumption is particularly important. In battery backup and standby applications the low consumption of these devices extends battery life.

APPLICATION INFORMATION 1) The L4920 and L4921 have VREF 1.25V. Then the output voltage can be set down to VREF but Vi must be greater than 5.2V (Tj = 25°C). 2) As the regulator reference voltage source works in closed loop, the reference voltage may change in foldback condition. 3) For applications with high Vl, the total power dissipation of the device with respect to the ther-

mal resistance of the package may be limiting . The total power dissipation is : Ptot = Vi lq + (Vi - Vo) lo A typical curve giving the quiescent current lq as a function of the output current lo is shown in fig. 3.
