LP5952
350mA Dual Rail Linear Regulator
General Description
Features
The LP5952 is a Dual Supply Rail Linear Regulator optimized
for powering ultra-low voltage circuits from a single Li-Ion cell
or 3 cell NiMH/NiCd batteries.
In the typical post regulation application VBATT is directly connected to the battery (range 2.5V...5.5V) and VIN is supplied
by the output voltage of the DC-DC Converter (range 0.7V...
4.5V).
The device offers superior dropout and transient features
combined with very low quiescent currents. In shutdown
mode (Enable pin pulled low) the device turns off and reduces
battery consumption to 0.1µA (typ.).
The LP5952 also features internal protection against overtemperature, over-current and under-voltage conditions.
Performance is specified for a -40°C to 125°C junction temperature range.
The device is available in a tiny 5-bump micro SMD and a 6pin Chip On Lead LLP package, lead free.
The device is available in fixed output voltages in the range
of 0.5V to 2.0V. For availability, please contact your local NSC
sales office.

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. Thermal shutdown engages at TJ = 165°C (typ.) and disengages at TJ
= 145°C (typ.).
Note 4: For detailed soldering specifications and information, please refer to National Semiconductor Application Note 1112: Micro SMD Wafer Level Chip Scale
Package (AN-1112) and Application Note 1187: Leadless Leadframe Package (LLP) (AN-1187).
Note 5: The Human body model is a 100pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor into each pin. The machine model is a 200pF capacitor discharged
directly into each pin. (MIL-STD-883 3015.7)
Note 6: 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).
Note 7: Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is highly application and board-layout dependent. In applications where high maximum power dissipation exists,
special attention must be paid to thermal dissipation issues in board design.
Note 8: Min and Max limits are guaranteed by design, test, or statistical analysis. Typical (Typ) numbers are not guaranteed, but do represent the most likely
norm. Unless otherwise specified, conditions for Typ specifications are: VIN = VOUT(NOM) + 1.0V, VBATT= VOUT(NOM) + 1.5V or 2.5V, whichever is higher, TA = 25°
C.
Note 9: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output voltage differential at which the output voltage falls to 100mV below the nominal output voltage.
Note 10: This specification does not apply if the battery voltage VBATT needs to be decreased below the minimum operating limit of 2.5V during this test.
Note 11: VOUT(NOM) is the stated output voltage option
Note 12: The capacitor tolerance should be 30% or better over temperature. The full operating conditions for the application should be considered when selecting
a suitable capacitor to ensure that the minimum value of capacitance is always met. Recommended capacitor type is X7R. However, dependent on application,
X5R, Y5V, and Z5U can also be used. The shown minimum limit represents real minimum capacitance, including all tolerances and must be maintained over
temperature and dc bias voltage (See capacitor section in Applications Hints)

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.
As an example, to keep full load current capability of 350mA
for a 1.5V output voltage option at a high ambient temperature
of 85°C, VIN has to be kept ≤ 2.7V (for micro SMD package):
VIN ≤ PD / IOUT + VOUT = 421mW / 350mA + 1.5V = 2.7V.
Figure 3 shows the output current derating due to these considerations:
Application Hints
DUAL RAIL SUPPLY
The LP5952 requires two different supply voltages:
•VIN, the power input voltage, is regulated to the fixed output
voltage
•VBATT, the bias input voltage, supplies internal circuitry.
It's important that VIN does not exceed VBATT at any time. If
the device is used in the typical post regulation application as
shown in Figure 1, the sequencing of the two power supplies
is not an issue as VBATT supplies both, the DC-DC regulator
and the LP5952. The output voltage of the DC-DC regulator
will take some time to rise up and supply VIN of LP5952. In
this application VIN will always ramp up more slowly than
VBATT.
In case VIN is shorted to VBATT, the voltages at the two supply
pins will ramp up simultaneously causing no problem.
Only in applications with two independent supplies connected
to the LP5952 special care must be taken to guarantee that
VIN is always ≤ VBATT.
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 the electrical specification section, the allowable
power dissipation for the device in a given package can be
calculated using the equation:
20208525
FIGURE 3. Maximum Load Current vs VIN - VOUT, TA =
85°C, VOUT = 1.5V, θJA(MICROSMD) = 95°C/W,
θJA(LLP) = 150°C/W,
PD = (TJ(MAX) - TA) / θJA
The typical contribution of the bias input voltage supply
VBATT to the power dissipation can be neglected:
PD_VBATT = VBATT * IQVBATT = 5.5V * 50µA = 0.275mW typical.
With a θJA = 95°C/W, the device in the 5 bump micro SMD
package returns a value of 1053mW with a maximum junction
temperature of 125°C at TA of 25°C or 421mW at TA of 85°C.
The actual power dissipation across the device can be estimated by the following equation:
EXTERNAL CAPACITORS
As is common with most regulators, the LP5952 requires external capacitors to ensure stable operation. The LP5952 is
specifically designed for portable applications requiring minimum board space and the smallest size components. These
capacitors must be correctly selected for good performance.
PD = (VIN - VOUT) * IOUT
11
www.national.com
LP5952
INPUT CAPACITOR
If the LP5952 is used stand alone, an input capacitor at VIN is
required for stability. It is recommended that a 1.0µF capacitor
be connected between the LP5952 power voltage input pin
VIN and ground (this capacitance value may be increased
without limit).
This capacitor must be located a distance of not more than 1
cm from the VIN pin and returned to a clean analogue ground.
Any good quality ceramic, tantalum, or film capacitor may be
used at the input.
A capacitor at VBATT is not required if the distance to the supply does not exceed 5cm.
If the device is used in the typical application as post regulator
after a DC-DC regulator, no input capacitors are required at
all as the capacitors of the DC-DC regulator (CIN and COUT)
are sufficient if both components are mounted close to each
other and a proper GND plane is used. If the distance between
the output capacitor of the DC-DC regulator and the VIN pin
of the LP5952 is larger than 5cm, it's recommended to add
the mentioned input capacitor at VIN.
Important: Tantalum capacitors can suffer catastrophic failures due to surge current when connected to a lowimpedance 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.
The ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of the input capacitor should be in the range of 3mΩ to 300mΩ. The tolerance
and temperature coefficient must be considered when selecting the capacitor to ensure the capacitance will remain ≥
470nF over the entire operating temperature range.
are also dependant on the particular case size, with smaller
sizes giving poorer performance figures in general. The example shows a typical graph comparing different capacitor
case sizes in a Capacitance vs. DC Bias plot. As shown in the
graph, increasing the DC Bias condition can result in the capacitance value falling below the minimum value given in the
recommended capacitor specifications table (0.47/1.5µF 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 recommended that the capacitor manufacturers’ specifications for the nominal value capacitor are consulted for all conditions, as some capacitor sizes (e.g. 0402)
may not be suitable in the actual application.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The LP5952 is designed specifically to work with very small
ceramic output capacitors. A ceramic capacitor (dielectric
types X7R, Z5U, or Y5V) in the 2.2µF range (up to 10µF) and
with an ESR between 3mΩ to 300mΩ is suitable as COUT in
the LP5952 application circuit.
This capacitor must be located a distance of not more than
1cm from the VOUT pin and returned to a clean analogue
ground.
It is also 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).
FIGURE 4. Graph Showing A Typical Variation In
Capacitance vs DC Bias
20208507
The ceramic capacitor’s capacitance can vary with temperature. The capacitor type X7R, which operates over a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, will only vary the capacitance
to within ±15%. The capacitor type X5R has a similar tolerance over a reduced temperature range of -55°C to +85°C.
Many large value ceramic capacitors, larger than 1µF are
manufactured with Z5U or Y5V temperature characteristics.
Their capacitance can drop by more than 50% as the temperature varies from 25°C to 85°C. Therefore X7R is recommended over Z5U and Y5V in applications where the ambient
temperature will change significantly above or below 25°C.
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
1µF to 4.7µF 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
increase about 2:1 as the temperature goes from 25°C down
to -40°C, so some guard band must be allowed.
CAPACITOR CHARACTERISTICS
The LP5952 is designed to work with ceramic capacitors on
the output to take advantage of the benefits they offer. For
capacitance values in the range of 1µF to 4.7µF, 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 1µF ceramic capacitor is
in the range of 3mΩ to 40mΩ, which easily meets the ESR
requirement for stability for the LP5952.
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 operating conditions 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. The capacitance
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

NO-LOAD STABILITY
The LP5952 will remain stable and in regulation with no external load. This is an important consideration in some circuits, for example CMOS RAM keep-alive applications.
12
REVERSE CURRENT PATH
The internal NFET pass device in LP5952 has an inherent
parasitic body 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 50mA. For currents above this limit
an external Schottky diode must be connected from VOUT to
VIN (cathode on VIN, anode on VOUT).
FAST TURN ON
Fast turn-on is guaranteed by an optimized architecture allowing a fast ramp of the output voltage to reach the target
voltage while the inrush current is controlled low at 120mA
typical (for a COUT of 2.2µF).
SHORT-CIRCUIT PROTECTION
The LP5952 is short circuit protected and in the event of a
peak over-current condition, the output current through the
NFET pass device will be limited.
If the over-current condition exists for a longer time, the average power dissipation will increase depending on the input
to output voltage difference until the thermal shutdown circuitry will turn off the NFET.
Please refer to the section on thermal information for power
dissipation calculations.

in the LP5952. When the junction temperature exceeds TJ =

165°C typ., the shutdown logic is triggered and the NFET is
turned off, allowing the device to cool down. After the junction
temperature dropped by 20°C (temperature hysteresis) typical, the NFET is activated again. This results in a pulsed
output voltage during continuous thermal-overload conditions.
The Thermal-Overload Protection is designed to protect the
LP5952 in the event of a fault condition. For normal, continuous operation, do not exceed the absolute maximum junction
temperature rating of TJ = +150°C (see Absolute Maximum
Ratings).
ENABLE OPERATION
The LP5952 may be switched ON or OFF by a logic input at
the Enable pin, VEN. A logic high at this pin will turn the device
on. When the enable pin is low, the regulator output is off and
the device typically consumes 0.1µA.
If the application does not require the Enable switching feature, the VEN pin should be tied to VBATT to keep the regulator
output permanently on.
To ensure proper operation, 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 Enable Control Characteristics,
VIL and VIH.
