Electrical specifications do not apply when operating the device outside of its rated operating conditions. Note 5: The ESD rating of pins 3 and 4 is 1 kV. Note 6: The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, TJ(MAX), the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, θJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated using: The value of θJ-A for the SOT-23 package is 300°C/W. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown. Note 7: If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the LP2980-ADJEP output must be diode-clamped to ground. Note 8: The output PNP structure contains a diode between the VIN and VOUT terminals that is normally reverse-biased. Reversing the polarity from VIN to VOUT will turn on this diode (see Application Hints). Note 9: Limits are 100% production tested at 25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are guaranteed through correlation using Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods. The limits are used to calculate National's Average Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL). Note 10: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100 mV below the value measured with a 1V differential. Note 11: The ON/OFF input must be properly driven to prevent possible misoperation. For details, refer to Application Hints. Note 12: See Typical Performance Characteristics curves. Note 13: Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent deemed necessary to ensure product performance over the specified temperature range. Product may not necessarily be tested across the full temperature range and all parameters may not necessarily be tested. In the absence of specific PARAMETRIC testing, product performance is assured by characterization and/or design. Typical Performance Characteristics Unless otherwise specified: TA = 25°C, VIN = VO(NOM) + 1V, IL = 1 mA, ON/OFF pin tied to VIN, RADJ = 86.6k, and test circuit is as shown in Basic Application Circuit.

INPUT CAPACITOR: An input capacitor whose value is ≥1 μF is required (the amount of capacitance may be increased without limit). Any good quality Tantalum or Ceramic capacitor may be used here. The capacitor must be located not more than 0.5″ from the input pin and returned to a clean analog ground. OUTPUT CAPACITOR: The output capacitor must meet both the requirement for minimum amount of capacitance and E.S.R. (Equivalent Series Resistance) for stable operation. Curves are provided below which show the allowable ESR of the output capacitor as a function of load current for both 2.2 μF and 4.7 μF. A solid Tantalum capacitor is the best choice for the output. 2.2 μF ESR Curves 4.7 μF ESR Curves 20207023 IMPORTANT: The output capacitor must maintain its ESR in the stable region over the full operating temperature range to assure stability. Also, capacitor tolerance and variation with temperature must be considered to assure the minimum amount of capacitance is provided at all times. Note that this capacitor must be located not more than 0.5” from the output pin and returned to a clean analog ground. FEED-FORWARD CAPACITOR: A 7 pF feed-forward capacitor is required (see Basic Application Circuit). The function of this capacitor is to provide the lead compensation necessary for loop stability. A temperature-stable ceramic capacitor (type NPO or COG) should be used here. CAPACITOR CHARACTERISTICS TANTALUM: The best capacitor choice for the LP2980-ADJEP output is solid Tantalum. The ESR of a good quality Tantalum is almost perfectly centered in the middle of the “stable” range of the ESR curve (about 0.5Ω–1Ω). The temperature stability of Tantalums is typically very good, with a total variation of only about 2:1 over the temperature range of −40°C to +125°C (ESR increases at colder temperatures). Off-brand capacitors should be avoided, as some poor quality Tantalums are seen with ESR's > 10Ω, and this usually causes oscillation problems. One caution about Tantalums if they are used on the input: the ESR of a Tantalum is low enough that it can be destroyed by surge current if powered up from a low impedance source 20207022 7 www.national.com LP2980-ADJEP output pin and out the input pin. This current must be limited to < 100 mA to prevent damage to the part. The internal diode can also be turned on if the input voltage is abruptly stepped down to a voltage which is a VBE below the output voltage. To prevent mis-operation, an external Schottky diode (see below) must be used in applications where the internal diode may be turned on. Since the external Schottky diode turns on at a lower voltage than the internal diode, the Schottky conducts all of the current and prevents the internal diode from becoming forward biased. (like a battery) that has no limit on inrush current. In these cases, use a ceramic input capacitor which does not have this problem. CERAMIC: Ceramics are generally larger and more costly than Tantalums for a given amount of capacitance. Also, they have a very low ESR which is quite stable with temperature. Be warned that the ESR of a ceramic capacitor is typically low enough to make an LDO oscillate: a 2.2 μF ceramic demonstrated an ESR of about 15 mΩ when tested. If used as an output capacitor, this will cause instability (see ESR Curves). If a ceramic is used on the output of an LDO, a small resistance (about 1Ω) should be placed in series with the capacitor. If it is used as an input capacitor, no resistor is needed as there is no requirement for ESR on capacitors used on the input. EXTERNAL RESISTORS The output voltage is set using two external resistors (see Basic Application Circuit). It is recommended that the resistor from the ADJ pin to ground be 51.1k. The other resistor (RADJ) which connects between VOUT and the ADJ pin is selected to set VOUT as given by the formula: 20207025 VOUT = 1.23 + 1.23 (RADJ/51.1k) ON/OFF INPUT OPERATION The LP2980-ADJEP is shut off by driving the ON/OFF input low, and turned on by pulling the ON/OFF input high. If this feature is not to be used, the ON/OFF input must be tied to VIN to keep the regulator output on at all times (the ON/OFF input must not be left floating). To ensure proper operation, the signal source used to drive the ON/OFF input must be able to swing above and below the specified turn-on/turn-off voltage thresholds which guarantee an ON or OFF state (see Electrical Characteristics). It is also important that the turn-on (and turn-off) voltage signals applied to the ON/OFF input have a slew rate which is greater than 40 mV/μs. IMPORTANT: The shutdown function will not operate correctly if a slow-moving signal is used to drive the S/D input. REVERSE CURRENT PATH The power transistor used in the LP2980-ADJEP has an inherent diode connected between the input and output pin (see below). 20207024 If the output is forced above the input by more than a VBE, this diode will become forward biased and current will flow into the www.national.com 8 LP2980-ADJEP Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted 5-Lead Small Outline Package (M5) NS Package Number MF05A 9 www.national.com LP2980-ADJEP Micropower SOT, 50 mA Ultra Low-Dropout Adjustable Voltage Regulator Notes THE CONTENTS OF THIS DOCUMENT ARE PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION (“NATIONAL”) PRODUCTS.
