FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
•
•
•
•
•
The LP3871/LP3874 series of fast ultra low-dropout
linear regulators operate from a +2.5V to +7.0V input
supply. Wide range of preset output voltage options
are available. These ultra low dropout linear
regulators respond very quickly to step changes in
load, which makes them suitable for low voltage
microprocessor applications. The LP3871/LP3874 are
developed on a CMOS process which allows low
quiescent current operation independent of output
load current. This CMOS process also allows the
LP3871/LP3874 to operate under extremely low
dropout conditions.

Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating ratings indicate conditions for which
the device is intended to be functional, but does not ensure specific performance limits. For specifications and test conditions, see
Electrical Characteristics. The specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade
when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions.
The human body model is a 100pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor into each pin.
At elevated temperatures, devices must be derated based on package thermal resistance. The devices in TO-220 package must be
derated at θjA = 50°C/W (with 0.5in2, 1oz. copper area), junction-to-ambient (with no heat sink). The devices in the DDPAK/TO-263
surface-mount package must be derated at θjA = 60°C/W (with 0.5in2, 1oz. copper area), junction-to-ambient. The SOT-223 package
must be derated at θjA = 90°C/W (with 0.5in2, 1oz. copper area), junction-to-ambient
If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output must be diode-clamped to ground.
The output PMOS structure contains a diode between the VIN and VOUT terminals. This diode is normally reverse biased. This diode will
get forward biased if the voltage at the output terminal is forced to be higher than the voltage at the input terminal. This diode can
typically withstand 200mA of DC current and 1Amp of peak current.

Typical numbers are at 25°C and represent the most likely parametric norm.
Limits are specified by testing, design, or statistical correlation.
Output voltage line regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in the input line voltage.
Output voltage load regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in load current. The line
and load regulation specification contains only the typical number. However, the limits for line and load regulation are included in the
output voltage tolerance specification.
Dropout voltage is defined as the minimum input to output differential voltage at which the output drops 2% below the nominal value.
Dropout voltage specification applies only to output voltages of 2.5V and above. For output voltages below 2.5V, the drop-out voltage is
nothing but the input to output differential, since the minimum input voltage is 2.5V.
Error Flag threshold and hysteresis are specified as percentage of regulated output voltage. See Application Hints.

Application Hints
EXTERNAL CAPACITORS
Like any low-dropout regulator, external capacitors are required to assure stability. These capacitors must be
correctly selected for proper performance.
INPUT CAPACITOR: An input capacitor of at least 10µF is required. Ceramic, Tantalum, or Electrolytic
capacitors may be used, and capacitance may be increased without limit.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR: An output capacitor is required for loop stability. It must be located less than 1 cm from
the device and connected directly to the output and ground pins using traces which have no other currents
flowing through them (see PCB Layout section).
The minimum value of output capacitance that can be used for stable full-load operation is 10µF, but it may be
increased without limit. The output capacitor must have an ESR value as shown in the stable region of the curve
(below).Tantalum capacitors are recommended for the output capacitor.

SELECTING A CAPACITOR
It is important to note that capacitance tolerance and variation with temperature must be taken into consideration
when selecting a capacitor so that the minimum required amount of capacitance is provided over the full
operating temperature range. In general, a good Tantalum capacitor will show very little capacitance variation
with temperature, but a ceramic may not be as good (depending on dielectric type). Aluminum electrolytics also
typically have large temperature variation of capacitance value.
Equally important to consider is a capacitor's ESR change with temperature: this is not an issue with ceramics,
as their ESR is extremely low. However, it is very important in Tantalum and aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
Both show increasing ESR at colder temperatures, but the increase in aluminum electrolytic capacitors is so
severe they may not be feasible for some applications (see Capacitor Characteristics Section).
CAPACITOR CHARACTERISTICS
CERAMIC: For values of capacitance in the 10 to 100 µF range, ceramics are usually larger and more costly
than tantalums but give superior AC performance for bypassing high frequency noise because of very low ESR
(typically less than 10 mΩ). However, some dielectric types do not have good capacitance characteristics as a
function of voltage and temperature.
Z5U and Y5V dielectric ceramics have capacitance that drops severely with applied voltage. A typical Z5U or
Y5V capacitor can lose 60% of its rated capacitance with half of the rated voltage applied to it. The Z5U and Y5V
also exhibit a severe temperature effect, losing more than 50% of nominal capacitance at high and low limits of
the temperature range.
X7R and X5R dielectric ceramic capacitors are strongly recommended if ceramics are used, as they typically
maintain a capacitance range within ±20% of nominal over full operating ratings of temperature and voltage. Of
course, they are typically larger and more costly than Z5U/Y5U types for a given voltage and capacitance.

SNVS225G – FEBRUARY 2003 – REVISED APRIL 2013
TANTALUM: Solid Tantalum capacitors are recommended for use on the output because their typical ESR is
very close to the ideal value required for loop compensation. They also work well as input capacitors if selected
to meet the ESR requirements previously listed.
Tantalums also have good temperature stability: a good quality Tantalum will typically show a capacitance value
that varies less than 10-15% across the full temperature range of 125°C to −40°C. ESR will vary only about 2X
going from the high to low temperature limits.
The increasing ESR at lower temperatures can cause oscillations when marginal quality capacitors are used (if
the ESR of the capacitor is near the upper limit of the stability range at room temperature).
ALUMINUM: This capacitor type offers the most capacitance for the money. The disadvantages are that they are
larger in physical size, not widely available in surface mount, and have poor AC performance (especially at
higher frequencies) due to higher ESR and ESL.
Compared by size, the ESR of an aluminum electrolytic is higher than either Tantalum or ceramic, and it also
varies greatly with temperature. A typical aluminum electrolytic can exhibit an ESR increase of as much as 50X
when going from 25°C down to −40°C.
It should also be noted that many aluminum electrolytics only specify impedance at a frequency of 120 Hz, which
indicates they have poor high frequency performance. Only aluminum electrolytics that have an impedance
specified at a higher frequency (between 20 kHz and 100 kHz) should be used for the LP387X. Derating must be
applied to the manufacturer's ESR specification, since it is typically only valid at room temperature.
Any applications using aluminum electrolytics should be thoroughly tested at the lowest ambient operating
temperature where ESR is maximum.
TURN-ON CHARACTERISTICS FOR OUTPUT VOLTAGES PROGRAMMED TO 2.0V OR BELOW
As Vin increases during start-up, the regulator output will track the input until Vin reaches the minimum operating
voltage (typically about 2.2V). For output voltages programmed to 2.0V or below, the regulator output may
momentarily exceed its programmed output voltage during start up. Outputs programmed to voltages above 2.0V
are not affected by this behavior.
PCB LAYOUT
Good PC layout practices must be used or instability can be induced because of ground loops and voltage drops.
The input and output capacitors must be directly connected to the input, output, and ground pins of the regulator
using traces which do not have other currents flowing in them (Kelvin connect).
The best way to do this is to lay out CIN and COUT near the device with short traces to the VIN, VOUT, and ground
pins. The regulator ground pin should be connected to the external circuit ground so that the regulator and its
capacitors have a "single point ground".
It should be noted that stability problems have been seen in applications where "vias" to an internal ground plane
were used at the ground points of the IC and the input and output capacitors. This was caused by varying ground
potentials at these nodes resulting from current flowing through the ground plane. Using a single point ground
technique for the regulator and it's capacitors fixed the problem.
Since high current flows through the traces going into VIN and coming from VOUT, Kelvin connect the capacitor
leads to these pins so there is no voltage drop in series with the input and output capacitors.
RFI/EMI SUSCEPTIBILITY
RFI (radio frequency interference) and EMI (electromagnetic interference) can degrade any integrated circuit's
performance because of the small dimensions of the geometries inside the device. In applications where circuit
sources are present which generate signals with significant high frequency energy content (> 1 MHz), care must
be taken to ensure that this does not affect the IC regulator.
If RFI/EMI noise is present on the input side of the regulator (such as applications where the input source comes
from the output of a switching regulator), good ceramic bypass capacitors must be used at the input pin of the IC.

If a load is connected to the IC output which switches at high speed (such as a clock), the high-frequency current
pulses required by the load must be supplied by the capacitors on the IC output. Since the bandwidth of the
regulator loop is less than 100 kHz, the control circuitry cannot respond to load changes above that frequency.
This means the effective output impedance of the IC at frequencies above 100 kHz is determined only by the
output capacitor(s).
In applications where the load is switching at high speed, the output of the IC may need RF isolation from the
load. It is recommended that some inductance be placed between the output capacitor and the load, and good
RF bypass capacitors be placed directly across the load.
PCB layout is also critical in high noise environments, since RFI/EMI is easily radiated directly into PC traces.
Noisy circuitry should be isolated from "clean" circuits where possible, and grounded through a separate path. At
MHz frequencies, ground planes begin to look inductive and RFI/EMI can cause ground bounce across the
ground plane.
In multi-layer PCB applications, care should be taken in layout so that noisy power and ground planes do not
radiate directly into adjacent layers which carry analog power and ground.
OUTPUT NOISE
Noise is specified in two waysSpot Noise or Output noise density is the RMS sum of all noise sources, measured at the regulator output, at
a specific frequency (measured with a 1Hz bandwidth). This type of noise is usually plotted on a curve as a
function of frequency.
Total output Noise or Broad-band noise is the RMS sum of spot noise over a specified bandwidth, usually
several decades of frequencies.
Attention should be paid to the units of measurement. Spot noise is measured in units µV/√Hz or nV/√Hz and
total output noise is measured in µV(rms).
The primary source of noise in low-dropout regulators is the internal reference. In CMOS regulators, noise has a
low frequency component and a high frequency component, which depend strongly on the silicon area and
quiescent current. Noise can be reduced in two ways: by increasing the transistor area or by increasing the
current drawn by the internal reference. Increasing the area will decrease the chance of fitting the die into a
smaller package. Increasing the current drawn by the internal reference increases the total supply current
(ground pin current). Using an optimized trade-off of ground pin current and die size, LP3871/LP3874 achieves
low noise performance and low quiescent current operation.
The total output noise specification for LP3871/LP3874 is presented in the Electrical Characteristics table. The
Output noise density at different frequencies is represented by a curve under typical performance characteristics.
SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION
The LP3871 and LP3874 are short circuit protected and in the event of a peak over-current condition, the shortcircuit control loop will rapidly drive the output PMOS pass element off. Once the power pass element shuts
down, the control loop will rapidly cycle the output on and off until the average power dissipation causes the
thermal shutdown circuit to respond to servo the on/off cycling to a lower frequency. Please refer to the section
on thermal information for power dissipation calculations.
ERROR FLAG OPERATION
The LP3871/LP3874 produces a logic low signal at the Error Flag pin when the output drops out of regulation
due to low input voltage, current limiting, or thermal limiting. This flag has a built in hysteresis. The timing
diagram in Figure 19 shows the relationship between the ERROR flag and the output voltage. In this example,
the input voltage is changed to demonstrate the functionality of the Error Flag.
The internal Error flag comparator has an open drain output stage. Hence, the ERROR pin should be pulled high
through a pull up resistor. Although the ERROR flag pin can sink current of 1mA, this current is energy drain
from the input supply. Hence, the value of the pull up resistor should be in the range of 10kΩ to 1MΩ. The
ERROR pin must be connected to ground if this function is not used. It should also be noted that when the
shutdown pin is pulled low, the ERROR pin is forced to be invalid for reasons of saving power in shutdown
mode.

Figure 19. Error Flag Operation
SENSE PIN
In applications where the regulator output is not very close to the load, LP3874 can provide better remote load
regulation using the SENSE pin. Figure 20 depicts the advantage of the SENSE option. LP3871 regulates the
voltage at the output pin. Hence, the voltage at the remote load will be the regulator output voltage minus the
drop across the trace resistance. For example, in the case of a 3.3V output, if the trace resistance is 100mΩ, the
voltage at the remote load will be 3.22V with 0.8A of load current, ILOAD. The LP3874 regulates the voltage at the
sense pin. Connecting the sense pin to the remote load will provide regulation at the remote load, as shown in
Figure 20. If the sense option pin is not required, the sense pin must be connected to the VOUT pin.

SHUTDOWN OPERATION
A CMOS Logic level signal at the shutdown ( SD) pin will turn-off the regulator. Pin SD must be actively
terminated through a 10kΩ pull-up resistor for a proper operation. If this pin is driven from a source that actively
pulls high and low (such as a CMOS rail to rail comparator), the pull-up resistor is not required. This pin must be
tied to Vin if not used.

DROPOUT VOLTAGE
The dropout voltage of a regulator is defined as the minimum input-to-output differential required to stay within
2% of the nominal output voltage. For CMOS LDOs, the dropout voltage is the product of the load current and
the Rds(on) of the internal MOSFET.
REVERSE CURRENT PATH
The internal MOSFET in LP3871 and LP3874 has an inherent parasitic diode. During normal operation, the input
voltage is higher than the output voltage and the parasitic diode is reverse biased. However, if the output is
pulled above the input in an application, then current flows from the output to the input as the parasitic diode gets
forward biased. The output can be pulled above the input as long as the current in the parasitic diode is limited to
200mA continuous and 1A peak.
POWER DISSIPATION/HEATSINKING
LP3871 and LP3874 can deliver a continuous current of 0.8A over the full operating temperature range. A
heatsink may be required depending on the maximum power dissipation and maximum ambient temperature of
the application. Under all possible conditions, the junction temperature must be within the range specified under
operating conditions. The total power dissipation of the device is given by:
PD = (VIN−VOUT)IOUT+ (VIN)IGND
where IGND is the operating ground current of the device (specified under Electrical Characteristics).
The maximum allowable temperature rise (TRmax) depends on the maximum ambient temperature (TAmax) of the
application, and the maximum allowable junction temperature (TJmax):
TRmax = TJmax− TAmax
The maximum allowable value for junction to ambient Thermal Resistance, θJA, can be calculated using the
formula:
θJA = TRmax / PD
LP3871 and LP3874 are available in TO-220 and DDPAK/TO-263 packages. The thermal resistance depends on
amount of copper area or heat sink, and on air flow. If the maximum allowable value of θJA calculated above is ≥
60 °C/W for TO-220 package and ≥ 60 °C/W for DDPAK/TO-263 package no heatsink is needed since the
package can dissipate enough heat to satisfy these requirements. If the value for allowable θJA falls below these
limits, a heat sink is required.
HEATSINKING TO-220 PACKAGE
The thermal resistance of a TO-220 package can be reduced by attaching it to a heat sink or a copper plane on
a PC board. If a copper plane is to be used, the values of θJA will be same as shown in next section for
DDPAK/TO-263 package.
The heatsink to be used in the application should have a heatsink to ambient thermal resistance,
θHA≤ θJA − θCH − θJC.
In this equation, θCH is the thermal resistance from the case to the surface of the heat sink and θJC is the thermal
resistance from the junction to the surface of the case. θJC is about 3°C/W for a TO-220 package. The value for
θCH depends on method of attachment, insulator, etc. θCH varies between 1.5°C/W to 2.5°C/W. If the exact value
is unknown, 2°C/W can be assumed.
HEATSINKING DDPAK/TO-263 PACKAGE
The DDPAK/TO-263 package uses the copper plane on the PCB as a heatsink. The tab of these packages are
soldered to the copper plane for heat sinking. Figure 21 shows a curve for the θJA of DDPAK/TO-263 package for
different copper area sizes, using a typical PCB with 1 ounce copper and no solder mask over the copper area
for heat sinking.

Figure 21. θJA vs Copper (1 Ounce) Area for DDPAK/TO-263 package
As shown in the figure, increasing the copper area beyond 1 square inch produces very little improvement. The
minimum value for θJA for the DDPAK/TO-263 package mounted to a PCB is 32°C/W.
Figure 22 shows the maximum allowable power dissipation for DDPAK/TO-263 packages for different ambient
temperatures, assuming θJA is 35°C/W and the maximum junction temperature is 125°C.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other
changes to its semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest
issue. Buyers should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and
complete. All semiconductor products (also referred to herein as “components”) are sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale
supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its components to the specifications applicable at the time of sale, in accordance with the warranty in TI’s terms
and conditions of sale of semiconductor products. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary
to support this warranty. Except where mandated by applicable law, testing of all parameters of each component is not necessarily
performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or the design of Buyers’ products. Buyers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with Buyers’ products and applications, Buyers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI components or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of such information may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data books or data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration
and is accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions.
Resale of TI components or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that component or service
voids all express and any implied warranties for the associated TI component or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice.
TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it is solely responsible for compliance with all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements
concerning its products, and any use of TI components in its applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support
that may be provided by TI. Buyer represents and agrees that it has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards which
anticipate dangerous consequences of failures, monitor failures and their consequences, lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause
harm and take appropriate remedial actions. Buyer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use
of any TI components in safety-critical applications.
In some cases, TI components may be promoted specifically to facilitate safety-related applications. With such components, TI’s goal is to
help enable customers to design and create their own end-product solutions that meet applicable functional safety standards and
requirements. Nonetheless, such components are subject to these terms.
No TI components are authorized for use in FDA Class III (or similar life-critical medical equipment) unless authorized officers of the parties
have executed a special agreement specifically governing such use.
Only those TI components which TI has specifically designated as military grade or “enhanced plastic” are designed and intended for use in
military/aerospace applications or environments. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that any military or aerospace use of TI components
which have not been so designated is solely at the Buyer's risk, and that Buyer is solely responsible for compliance with all legal and
regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI has specifically designated certain components as meeting ISO/TS16949 requirements, mainly for automotive use. In any case of use of
non-designated products, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet ISO/TS16949.
