Understanding and Applying the LT1005
Multifunction Regulator
Jim Williams
The number of voltage regulators currently available
makes the introduction of another regulator seem almost
unnecessary. However, a new device, the LT1005, offers
auxiliary functions which help solve problems often associated with voltage regulation in circuits.
The LT1005 (Figure 1) consists of a 5V, 1A1 regulator,
which is controlled by a positive logic enable pin, and a 5V
auxiliary regulator. The auxiliary regulators output is unaffected by the state of the main regulator. Thermal overload

arrangement allows the normal separate power switch to
be eliminated. Although the enable pin interfaces directly
to CMOS and TTL, its relatively high impedance allows it
to implement a number of diverse functions.

Application Note 1
Figure 3 illustrates a circuit which takes advantage of this
operation to achieve a cost-effective solid-state equivalent of a circuit breaker. This circuit will turn off the main
regulators output within 700ns of an overload. The trip
current and breaker delay times are settable over a wide
range. Under normal conditions the current through the
1 shunt is insufficient to bias Q1 into conduction. Q2
is also off and the regulator functions. When an overload
occurs (Trace A, Figure 4 is the regulators output current),
the potential across the 1 resistor rises, turning on Q1.
A1s collector drives Q2s base (Trace B, Figure 4) via the
1k resistor and the 100pF speed-up capacitor. This turns
on Q2, pulling the enable pin (Trace C, Figure 4) to ground
and shutting down the regulator output (Trace D, Figure4).
The 10k value from the main output to the enable pin
latches the regulator down in a fashion similar to Figure1
and the 4.7F capacitor shown in dashed lines may be
added (delete the 100pF unit) for applications where fast
response is not desirable. The 1 value can be selected
to accommodate any desired current trip point.

Application Note 1
Figure 6 shows the LT1005 in another circuit where operation depends on input conditions. This circuit is useful in
systems where it is necessary to bring up and power-down
circuitry in a sequence. It is particularly applicable in situations where it is desirable to transfer and store data into
nonvolatile memory during power outages. It functions
by taking advantage of the differing dropout voltages
between the main and auxiliary outputs. When power is
first applied, the LT1005 input (Trace A, Figure 7) starts to
ramp up. The auxiliary output (Trace D, Figure 7) follows
this ramping action and clamps at its 5V regulated output.
During this interval, C1 monitors the difference between
the regulator input and the 5V auxiliary output. The resistor ratios at its inputs are scaled so that the enable pin
(Trace B, Figure 7) will be clamped until the regulator input
is high enough to support main output regulation. (The
small ramp segments visible at the enable pin are due to

Application Note 1
In some systems it is more convenient, or advantageous,
to detect power outages by directly monitoring the AC
line. Figure 8s circuit does this by connecting an optoisolator across the AC output of the power transformer.
Normally, the AC line (Trace A, Figure 9) turns on the LED
every 8ms (1/2 cycle of the line), causing the Darlington
output transistor to reset the 0.01F capacitor to VCE(SAT).
When the line drops out (Trace B, Figure 9), the capacitor
charges at a rate dependent upon the setting of the 20k
potentiometer. This ramping voltage is compared by C1 to a

Application Note 1
The latching action used in many of the preceding applications is one form of feedback. Negative feedback to
the enable pin can be used to make closed loop servos.
Figure 13 shows a way to make a simple switched-mode
motor speed controller with the LT1005. This circuit uses
a tachometer to generate a feedback signal which is
compared to a reference supplied by the auxiliary output.
When power is applied, the tachometer output is zero
and the regulator output (Trace A, Figure 14) comes on,
forcing current (Trace C, Figure 14) into the motor. As
motor rotation increases, the negative tachometer output
pulls the enable pin (Trace B, Figure 14) toward ground.
When the enable pins threshold voltage is reached, the
regulator output goes down and the motor slows. C1
provides positive feedback, ensuring clean transitions.
In this fashion, the motors speed is servo-controlled at

Figure 15 shows a way to run higher voltage motors. In this
mode the motor is placed in the regulator input line and
the output is terminated into a 3.3 load. The servo loop
operates in a similar fashion to the one in Figure13. In this
case, however, a large capacitor is placed at the regulator
to filter the transients generated by motor switching. When
the tachometer output (Trace A, Figure 16) calls for power,
the regulator comes on, allowing current to flow through
the motor. This forces the regulator input toward ground
(Trace B, Figure 16) for the duration of the on-time. The
