DESCRIPTION/ORDERING INFORMATION
The LP2950 and LP2951 devices are bipolar, low-dropout voltage regulators that can accommodate a wide input
supply-voltage range of up to 30 V. The easy-to-use, 3-pin LP2950 is available in fixed-output voltages of 5 V,
3.3 V, and 3 V. However, the 8-pin LP2951 is able to output either a fixed or adjustable output from the same
device. By tying the OUTPUT and SENSE pins together, and the FEEDBACK and VTAP pins together, the
LP2951 outputs a fixed 5 V, 3.3 V, or 3 V (depending on the version). Alternatively, by leaving the SENSE and
VTAP pins open and connecting FEEDBACK to an external resistor divider, the output can be set to any value
between 1.235 V to 30 V.
The 8-pin LP2951 also offers additional functionality that makes it particularly suitable for battery-powered
applications. For example, a logic-compatible shutdown feature allows the regulator to be put in standby mode
for power savings. In addition, there is a built-in supervisor reset function in which the ERROR output goes low
when VOUT drops by 6% of its nominal value for whatever reasons – due to a drop in VIN, current limiting, or
thermal shutdown.
The LP2950 and LP2951 are designed to minimize all error contributions to the output voltage. With a tight
output tolerance (0.5% at 25°C), a very low output voltage temperature coefficient (20 ppm typical), extremely
good line and load regulation (0.3% and 0.4% typical), and remote sensing capability, the parts can be used as
either low-power voltage references or 100-mA regulators.

Stresses beyond those listed under "absolute maximum ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under "recommended operating
conditions" is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
May exceed input supply voltage
If load is returned to a negative power supply, the output must be diode clamped to GND.
Maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), θJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any allowable ambient
temperature is PD = (TJ(max) – TA)/θJA. Operating at the absolute maximum TJ of 150°C can affect reliability.
The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51-7.

Output or reference voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst-case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.
Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low duty cycle. Changes in output voltage due to
heating effects are covered under the specification for thermal regulation.
Dropout voltage is defined as the input-to-output differential at which the output voltage drops 100 mV, below the value measured at 1-V
differential. The minimum input supply voltage of 2 V (2.3 V over temperature) must be observed.
Thermal regulation is defined as the change in output voltage at a time (T) after a change in power dissipation is applied, excluding load
or line regulation effects. Specifications are for a 50-mA load pulse at VIN = 30 V, VOUT = 5 V (1.25-W pulse) for t = 10 ms.

Comparator thresholds are expressed in terms of a voltage differential equal to the nominal reference voltage (measured at
VIN – VOUT = 1 V) minus FEEDBACK terminal voltage. To express these thresholds in terms of output voltage change, multiply by the
error amplifier gain = VOUT/VREF = (R1 + R2)/R2. For example, at a programmed output voltage of 5 V, the ERROR output is specified to
go low when the output drops by 95 mV × 5 V/1.235 V = 384 mV. Thresholds remain constant as a percentage of VOUT (as VOUT is
varied), with the low-output warning occurring at 6% below nominal (typ) and 7.7% (max).

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Input Capacitor (CIN)
A 1-µF (tantalum, ceramic, or aluminum) electrolytic capacitor should be placed locally at the input of the
LP2950 or LP2951 if there is, or will be, significant impedance between the ac filter capacitor and the input; for
example, if a battery is used as the input or if the ac filter capacitor is located more than 10 in away. There are
no ESR requirements for this capacitor, and the capacitance can be increased without limit.
Output Capacitor (COUT)
As with most PNP LDOs, stability conditions require the output capacitor to have a minimum capacitance and an
ESR that falls within a certain range.
Capacitance Value
For VOUT ≥ 5 V, a minimum of 1 µF is required. For lower VOUT, the regulator’s loop gain is running closer to
unity gain and, thus, has lower phase margins. Consequently, a larger capacitance is needed for stability. For
VOUT = 3 V or 3.3 V, a minimum of 2.2 µF is recommended. For worst case, VOUT = 1.23 V (using the ADJ
version), a minimum of 3.3 µF is recommended. COUT can be increased without limit and only improves the
regulator stability and transient response. Regardless of its value, the output capacitor should have a resonant
frequency less than 500 kHz.
The minimum capacitance values given above are for maximum load current of 100 mA. If the maximum
expected load current is less than 100 mA, then lower values of COUT can be used. For instance, if IOUT < 10
mA, then only 0.33 µF is required for COUT. For IOUT < 1 mA, 0.1 µF is sufficient for stability requirements. Thus,
for a worst-case condition of 100-mA load and VOUT = VREF = 1.235 V (representing the highest load current and
lowest loop gain), a minimum COUT of 3.3 µF is recommended.
For the LP2950, no load stability is inherent in the design — a desirable feature in CMOS circuits that are put in
standby (such as RAM keep-alive applications). If the LP2951 is used with external resistors to set the output
voltage, a minimum load current of 1 µA is recommended through the resistor divider.
ESR Range
The regulator control loop relies on the ESR of the output capacitor to provide a zero to add sufficient phase
margin to ensure unconditional regulator stability; this requires the closed-loop gain to intersect the open-loop
response in a region where the open-loop gain rolls off at 20 dB/decade. This ensures that the phase always is
less than 180° (phase margin greater than 0°) at unity gain. Thus, a minimum-maximum range for the ESR must
be observed.
The upper limit of this ESR range is established by the fact that too high an ESR could result in the zero
occurring too soon, causing the gain to roll off too slowly, which, in turn allows a third pole to appear before unity
gain and introduce enough phase shift to cause instability. This typically limits the max ESR to approximately
5 Ω.
Conversely, the lower limit of the ESR is tied to the fact that too low an ESR shifts the zero too far out (past
unity gain) and, thus, allows the gain to roll off at 40 dB/decade at unity gain, with a resulting phase shift of
greater than 180°. Typically, this limits the minimum ESR to approximately 20 mΩ to 30 mΩ.
For specific ESR requirements, see Typical Characteristics.

APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
Capacitor Types
Most tantalum or aluminum electrolytics are suitable for use at the input. Film-type capacitors also work, but at
higher cost. When operating at low temperature, care should be taken with aluminum electrolytics, as their
electrolytes often freeze at –30°C. For this reason, solid tantalum capacitors should be used at temperatures
below –25°C.
Ceramic capacitors can be used, but due to their low ESR (as low as 5 mΩ to 10 mΩ), they may not meet the
minimum ESR requirement previously discussed. If a ceramic capacitor is used, a series resistor between 0.1 Ω
to 2 Ω must be added to meet the minimum ESR requirement. In addition, ceramic capacitors have one glaring
disadvantage that must be taken into account — a poor temperature coefficient, where the capacitance can vary
significantly with temperature. For instance, a large-value ceramic capacitor (≥2.2 µF) can lose more than half of
its capacitance as temperature rises from 25°C to 85°C. Thus, a 2.2-µF capacitor at 25°C drops well below the
minimum COUT required for stability as ambient temperature rises. For this reason, select an output capacitor
that maintains the minimum 2.2-µF required for stability for the entire operating temperature range.
CBYPASS: Noise and Stability Improvement
In the LP2951, an external FEEDBACK pin directly connected to the error amplifier noninverting input can allow
stray capacitance to cause instability by shunting the error amplifier feedback to GND, especially at high
frequencies. This is worsened if high-value external resistors are used to set the output voltage, because a high
resistance allows the stray capacitance to play a more significant role; i.e., a larger RC time delay is introduced
between the output of the error amplifier and its FEEDBACK input, leading to more phase shift and lower phase
margin. A solution is to add a 100-pF bypass capacitor (CBYPASS) between OUTPUT and FEEDBACK; because
CBYPASS is in parallel with R1, it lowers the impedance seen at FEEDBACK at high frequencies, in effect
offsetting the effect of the parasitic capacitance by providing more feedback at higher frequencies. More
feedback forces the error amplifier to work at a lower loop gain, so COUT should be increased to a minimum of
3.3 µF to improve the regulator’s phase margin.
CBYPASS can be also used to reduce output noise in the LP2951. This bypass capacitor reduces the closed loop
gain of the error amplifier at the high frequency, so noise no longer scales with the output voltage. This
improvement is more noticeable with higher output voltages, because loop gain reduction is greatest. A suitable
CBYPASS is calculated as shown in Equation 1:
1
f (CBYPASS) ] 200 Hz ³ CBYPASS +
2p R1 200 Hz
(1)
On the 3-pin LP2950, noise reduction can be achieved by increasing the output capacitor, which causes the
regulator bandwidth to be reduced, therefore, eliminating high-frequency noise. However, this method is
relatively inefficient, as increasing COUT from 1 µF to 220 µF only reduces the regulator’s output noise from
430 µV to 160 µV (over a 100-kHz bandwidth).
ERROR Function (LP2951 Only)
The LP2951 has a low-voltage detection comparator that outputs a logic low when the output voltage drops by
≈6% from its nominal value, and outputs a logic high when VOUT has reached ≈95% of its nominal value. This
95% of nominal figure is obtained by dividing the built-in offset of ≈60 mV by the 1.235-V bandgap reference,
and remains independent of the programmed output voltage. For example, the trip-point threshold (ERROR
output goes high) typically is 4.75 V for a 5-V output and 11.4 V for a 12-V output. Typically, there is a hysteresis
of 15 mV between the thresholds for high and low ERROR output.
A timing diagram is shown in Figure 1 for ERROR vs VOUT (5 V), as VIN is ramped up and down. ERROR
becomes valid (low) when VIN ≈ 1.3 V. When VIN ≈ 5 V, VOUT = 4.75 V, causing ERROR to go high. Because the
dropout voltage is load dependent, the output trip-point threshold is reached at different values of VIN, depending
on the load current. For instance, at higher load current, ERROR goes high at a slightly higher value of VIN, and
vice versa for lower load current. The output-voltage trip point remains at ≈4.75 V, regardless of the load. Note
that when VIN ≤ 1.3 V, the ERROR comparator output is turned off and pulled high to its pullup voltage. If VOUT is
used as the pullup voltage, rather than an external 5-V source, ERROR typically is ≈1.2 V. In this condition, an
equal resistor divider (10 kΩ is suitable) can be tied to ERROR to divide down the voltage to a valid logic low
during any fault condition, while still enabling a logic high during normal operation.

Figure 1. ERROR Output Timing
Because the ERROR comparator has an open-collector output, an external pullup resistor is required to pull the
output up to VOUT or another supply voltage (up to 30 V). The output of the comparator is rated to sink up to
400 µA. A suitable range of values for the pullup resistor is from 100 kΩ to 1 MΩ. If ERROR is not used, it can
be left open.
Programming Output Voltage (LP2951 Only)
A unique feature of the LP2951 is its ability to output either a fixed voltage or an adjustable voltage, depending
on the external pin connections. To output the internally programmed fixed voltage, tie the SENSE pin to the
OUTPUT pin and the FEEDBACK pin to the VTAP pin. Alternatively, a user-programmable voltage ranging from
the internal 1.235-V reference to a 30-V max can be set by using an external resistor divider pair. The resistor
divider is tied to VOUT, and the divided-down voltage is tied directly to FEEDBACK for comparison against the
internal 1.235-V reference. To satisfy the steady-state condition in which its two inputs are equal, the error
amplifier drives the output to equal Equation 2:
V OUT + V REF
ǒ 1 ) R1
Ǔ*I
R2
FB
R1
(2)
Where:
VREF = 1.235 V applied across R2
IFB = FEEDBACK bias current, typically 20 nA
A minimum regulator output current of 1 µA must be maintained. Thus, in an application where a no-load
condition is expected (for example, CMOS circuits in standby), this 1-µA minimum current must be provided by
the resistor pair, effectively imposing a maximum value of R2 = 1.2 MΩ (1.235 V/1.2 MΩ ≈ 1 µA).
IFB = 20 nA introduces an error of ≈0.02% in VOUT. This can be offset by trimming R1. Alternatively, increasing
the divider current makes IFB less significant, thus, reducing its error contribution. For instance, using R2 = 100
kΩ reduces the error contribution of IFB to 0.17% by increasing the divider current to ≈12 µA. This increase in the
divider current still is small compared to the 600-µA typical quiescent current of the LP2951 under no load.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated and its subsidiaries (TI) reserve the right to make corrections, modifications, enhancements, improvements,
and other changes to its products and services at any time and to discontinue any product or service without notice. Customers should
obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete. All products are
sold subject to TI’s terms and conditions of sale supplied at the time of order acknowledgment.
TI warrants performance of its hardware products to the specifications applicable at the time of sale in accordance with TI’s standard
warranty. Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary to support this warranty. Except where
mandated by government requirements, testing of all parameters of each product is not necessarily performed.
TI assumes no liability for applications assistance or customer product design. Customers are responsible for their products and
applications using TI components. To minimize the risks associated with customer products and applications, customers should provide
adequate design and operating safeguards.
TI does not warrant or represent that any license, either express or implied, is granted under any TI patent right, copyright, mask work right,
or other TI intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
published by TI regarding third-party products or services does not constitute a license from TI 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 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. Reproduction of this information with alteration is an unfair and deceptive
business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for such altered documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional
restrictions.
Resale of TI products or services with statements different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all
express and any implied warranties for the associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not
responsible or liable for any such statements.
TI products are not authorized for use in safety-critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would reasonably
be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, unless officers of the parties have executed an agreement specifically governing
such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of their applications, and
acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning their products
and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be
provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in
such safety-critical applications.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are
specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military
specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is solely at
the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products are
designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any non-designated
products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
