ADM1051/ADM1051A
PC 5V SUPPLY
For compatibility with the TYPEDET signal, the regulator output
voltage of Channel 1 may be selected using the Shutdown pin.
This is a multilevel, dual-function input that allows selection of
the regulator output voltage as well as shutdown of the regulator.

By setting SHDN1 to different voltages, the regulator can be put
into four different operating modes.
Figure 2. Using SHDN1 with TYPEDET Signal
A shutdown function can be added by connecting an open-drain/
open-collector logic output to SHDN1, or by using a totem-pole
logic output with a Schottky diode, as shown in Figure 3.

If the SHDN1 pin is connected to a voltage less than 0.8 V, the
FORCE output will go low and the regulator will be shut down.

If the SHDN1 pin is connected to a voltage greater than 6.2 V,
or simply left open-circuit, the regulator will operate normally
and provide 1.5 V out. This allows the regulator to operate
normally with no external connection to SHDN1.

If the SHDN1 pin is connected to a voltage between 2 V and 3.9 V,
the regulator will also operate normally and provide 1.5 V out.
Figure 3. TYPEDET Voltage Selection Combined with
Shutdown Function
If the SHDN1 pin is connected to a voltage between 4.3 V and
5.3 V, the FORCE output will be high and the external MOSFET
will be turned hard on, making the output voltage equal to the 3.3 V
input (less any small drop due to the on-resistance of the MOSFET).
In this mode it is not actually regulating, but simply acting as a
switch for the 3.3 V supply. The voltage drop across the Channel 1
MOSFET in Mode 3 can be minimized by using a MOSFET
with very low on resistance, for which Channel 1 is optimized,
such as the PHD55N03LT.
When the logic output is high or turned off, the regulator mode
will be controlled by TYPEDET. When the logic output is low,
the regulator will be shut down.

The latter two modes allow the regulator to be controlled by the

Note that when Channel 1 of the ADM1051 is set to 3.3 V,
Channel 2 should not be shut down while Channel 1 is active.
