Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. Operating Ratings are conditions under which operation
of the device is guaranteed. Operating Ratings do not imply guaranteed performance limits. For guaranteed performance limits and associated test conditions,
see the Electrical Characteristics tables.
Note 2: All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pin.
Note 3: Internal thermal shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent damage.
Note 4: The Human body model is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor into each pin. The machine model is a 200 pF capacitor discharged
directly into each pin. MIL-STD-883 3015.7
Note 5: In applications where high power dissipation and/or poor package thermal resistance is present, the maximum ambient temperature may have to be
derated. Maximum ambient temperature (TA-MAX) is dependent on the maximum operating junction temperature (TJ-MAX-OP = 125°C), the maximum power
dissipation of the device in the application (PD-MAX), and the junction-to ambient thermal resistance of the part/package in the application (θJA), as given by the
following equation: TA-MAX = TJ-MAX-OP – (θJA × PD-MAX). See applications section.
Note 6: Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is highly application and board-layout dependent. In applications where high maximum power dissipation exists,
special care must be paid to thermal dissipation issues in board design.
Note 7: Min and Max limits are guaranteed by design, test, or statistical analysis. Typical numbers are not guaranteed, but do represent the most likely norm.
Note 8: The device maintains a stable, regulated output voltage without a load current.
Note 9: Dropout voltage is the voltage difference between the input and the output at which the output voltage drops to 100 mV below its nominal value. This
parameter only applies to output voltages above 2.8V.
Note 10: Quiescent current is defined here as the difference in current between the input voltage source and the load at VOUT.
Note 11: Short Circuit Current is measured with VOUT pulled to 0V.
Note 12: There is a 3 MΩ resistor between VEN and ground on the device.
Note 13: This specification is guaranteed by design.

LP5990
Other ceramic capacitors such as Y5V and Z5U are less suitable owing to their inferior temperature characteristics. (See
section in Capacitor Characteristics).
For this device the output capacitor should be connected between the VOUT pin and a good ground connection and should
be mounted within 1 cm of the device.
It may also be possible to use tantalum or film capacitors at
the device output, VOUT, but these are not as attractive for
reasons of size and cost (see the section Capacitor Characteristics).
The output capacitor must meet the requirement for the minimum value of capacitance (0.3μF) and have an ESR value
that is within the range 5 mΩ to 500 mΩ for stability.
Application Hints
POWER DISSIPATION AND DEVICE OPERATION
The permissible power dissipation for any package is a measure of the capability of the device to pass heat from the power
source, the junctions of the IC, to the ultimate heat sink, the
ambient environment. Thus the power dissipation is dependent on the ambient temperature and the thermal resistance
across the various interfaces between the die and ambient
air. As stated in (Note 5) of the electrical characteristics, the
allowable power dissipation for the device in a given package
can be calculated using the equation:
CAPACITOR CHARACTERISTICS
The LP5990 is designed to work with ceramic capacitors on
the input and output to take advantage of the benefits they
offer. For capacitance values in the range of 1.0 μF to 4.7
μF, ceramic capacitors are the smallest, least expensive and
have the lowest ESR values, thus making them best for eliminating high frequency noise. The ESR of a typical 1.0 μF
ceramic capacitor is in the range of 20 mΩ to 40 mΩ, which
easily meets the ESR requirement for stability for the LP5990
For both input and output capacitors careful interpretation of
the capacitor specification is required to ensure correct device
operation. The capacitor value can change greatly depending
on the conditions of operation and capacitor type.
In particular the output capacitor selection should take account of all the capacitor parameters to ensure that the specification is met within the application.Capacitance value can
vary with DC bias conditions as well as temperature and frequency of operation. Capacitor values will also show some
decrease over time due to aging. The capacitor parameters
are also dependant on particular case size with smaller sizes
giving poorer performance figures in general. As an example
Figure 1 shows a typical graph showing a comparison of capacitor case sizes in a Capacitance versus DC Bias plot. As
shown in the graph, as a result of the DC Bias condition, the
capacitance value may drop below the minimum capacitance
value given in the recommended capacitor table (0.3µF in this
case). Note that the graph shows the capacitance out of spec
for the 0402 case size capacitor at higher bias voltages. It is
therefore recommend that the capacitor manufacturer's specifications for the nominal value capacitor are consulted for all
conditions as some capacitors may not be suited in the application.
The temperature performance of ceramic capacitors varies by
type and manufacturer. Most large value ceramic capacitors
(≥2.2 µF) are manufactured with Z5U or Y5V temperature
characteristics, which results in the capacitance dropping by
more than 50% as the temperature goes from 25°C to 85°C.
A better choice for temperature coefficient in a ceramic capacitor is X7R. This type of capacitor is the most stable and
holds the capacitance within ±15% over the temperature
range. Tantalum capacitors are less desirable than ceramic
for use as output capacitors because they are more expensive when comparing equivalent capacitance and voltage
ratings in the 0.47 μF to 4.7 μF range.
Another important consideration is that tantalum capacitors
have higher ESR values than equivalent size ceramics. This
means that while it may be possible to find a tantalum capacitor with an ESR value within the stable range, it would have
to be larger in capacitance (which means bigger and more
costly) than a ceramic capacitor with the same ESR value. It
should also be noted that the ESR of a typical tantalum will
The actual power dissipation across the device can be represented by the following equation:
PD = (VIN – VOUT) x IOUT
This establishes the relationship between the power dissipation allowed due to thermal consideration, the voltage drop
across the device, and the continuous current capability of the
device. These two equations should be used to determine the
optimum operating conditions for the device in the application.
EXTERNAL CAPACITORS
Like any low-dropout regulator, the LP5990 requires external
capacitors for regulator stability. The LP5990 is specifically
designed for portable applications requiring minimum board
space and smallest components. These capacitors must be
correctly selected for good performance.
INPUT CAPACITOR
An input capacitor is required for stability. The input capacitor
should be at least equal to or greater than the output capacitor. It is recommended that a 1.0 µF capacitor be connected
between the LP5990 input pin and ground.
This capacitor must be located a distance of not more than 1
cm from the input pin and returned to a clean analogue
ground. Any good quality ceramic, tantalum, or film capacitor
may be used at the input.
Important: To ensure stable operation it is essential that
good PCB practices are employed to minimize ground
impedance and keep input inductance low. If these conditions
cannot be met, or if long leads are to be used to connect the
battery or other power source to the LP5990, then it is recommended to increase the input capacitor to at least 2.2µF.
Also, tantalum capacitors can suffer catastrophic failures due
to surge current when connected to a low-impedance source
of power (like a battery or a very large capacitor). If a tantalum
capacitor is used at the input, it must be guaranteed by the
manufacturer to have a surge current rating sufficient for the
application. There are no requirements for the ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) on the input capacitor, but tolerance
and temperature coefficient must be considered when selecting the capacitor to ensure the capacitance will remain 0.3
μF over the entire operating temperature range.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The LP5990 is designed specifically to work with very small
ceramic output capacitors. A ceramic capacitor (dielectric
types X5R or X7R) 1.0 μF, and with ESR between 5 mΩ to
500 mΩ, is suitable in the LP5990 application circuit.

device on. When the enable pin is low, the regulator output is
off and the device typically consumes 3 nA. If the application
does not require the shutdown feature, the VEN pin should be
tied to VIN to keep the regulator output permanently on.
The signal source used to drive the VEN input must be able to
swing above and below the specified turn-on/off voltage
thresholds listed in the Electrical Characteristics section under VIL and VIH.
micro SMD MOUNTING
The micro SMD package requires specific mounting techniques, which are detailed in National Semiconductor Application Note AN-1112.
For best results during assembly, alignment ordinals on the
PC board may be used to facilitate placement of the micro
SMD device.
micro SMD LIGHT SENSITIVITY
Exposing the micro SMD device to direct light may cause incorrect operation of the device. Light sources such as halogen
lamps can affect electrical performance if they are situated in
proximity to the device.
Light with wavelengths in the red and infra-red part of the
spectrum have the most detrimental effect thus the fluorescent lighting used inside most buildings has very little effect
on performance.
