LM2941/LM2941C 1A Low Dropout Adjustable Regulator and the load. Familiar regulator features such as short circuit and thermal overload protection are also provided. General Description The LM2941 positive voltage regulator features the ability to source 1A of output current with a typical dropout voltage of 0.5V and a maximum of 1V over the entire temperature range. Furthermore, a quiescent current reduction circuit has been included which reduces the ground pin current when the differential between the input voltage and the output voltage exceeds approximately 3V. The quiescent current with 1A of output current and an input-output differential of 5V is therefore only 30mA. Higher quiescent currents only exist when the regulator is in the dropout mode (VIN − VOUT ≤ 3V). Designed also for vehicular applications, the LM2941 and all regulated circuitry are protected from reverse battery installations or two-battery jumps. During line transients, such as load dump when the input voltage can momentarily exceed the specified maximum operating voltage, the regulator will automatically shut down to protect both the internal circuits Features ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ LLP space saving package Output voltage adjustable from 5V to 20V Dropout voltage typically 0.5V @ IO = 1A Output current in excess of 1A Trimmed reference voltage Reverse battery protection Internal short circuit current limit Mirror image insertion protection P+ Product Enhancement tested TTL, CMOS compatible ON/OFF switch Connection Diagram and Ordering Information TO-220 Plastic Package TO-263 Surface-Mount Package 882309 882302 Top View Order Number LM2941T or LM2941CT See NS Package Number TO5A 882308 Order Number LM2941S, LM2941SX or LM2941CS, LM2941CSX See NS Package Number TS5B 16-Lead Ceramic Dual-in-Line Package 16-Lead Ceramic Surface Mount Package 8-Lead LLP Surface Mount Package 882331 Top View Order Number LM2941J/883 LM2941J-QMLV, 5962-9166701QEA See NS Package Number J16A 882332 Top View Order Number LM2941WG/883 LM2941WG-QMLV, 5962-9166701QYA See NS Package Number WG16A 882333 Top View Ordering Number LM2941LD, LM2941LDX See NS Package Number LDC08A Note: Pin 2 & 7 are fused to center DAP © 2007 National Semiconductor Corporation 8823 www.national.com LM2941/LM2941C 1A Low Dropout Adjustable Regulator November 7, 2007 LM2941/LM2941C TO-263 (S) Package ESD Rating (Note 2) Absolute Maximum Ratings (Note 1) If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the National Semiconductor Sales Office/ Distributors for availability and specifications.

Operating ratings indicate conditions for which the device is intended to be functional, but device parameter specifications may not be guaranteed under these conditions. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see the Electrical Characteristics. Note 2: The Human Body Model (HBM) is a 100 pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor into each pin. Test method is per JESD22–A114. Note 3: A military RETS specification available upon request. For more information about military-aerospace products, see the Mil-Aero web page at http:// www.national.com/appinfo/milaero/index.html. Note 4: The maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), θJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is PD = (TJ(max) − TA)/θJA. If this dissipation is exceeded, the die temperature will rise above 150°C and the LM2941 will go into thermal shutdown. If the TO-263 package is used, the thermal resistance can be reduced by increasing the P.C. board copper area thermally connected to the package: Using 0.5 square inches of copper area, θJA is 50°C/W; with 1 square inch of copper area, θJA is 37°C/W; and with 1.6 or more square inches of copper area, θJA is 32°C/W. Thermal performance for the LLP package was obtained using a JESD51-7 board with six vias, using no airflow and an ambient temperature of 22°C. The value θJA for the LLP package is specifically dependent on PCB trace area, trace material, and the number of layers and thermal vias. For improved thermal resistance and power dissipation for the LLP package, refer to Application Note AN-1187. It is recommended that 6 vias be placed under the center pad to improve thermal performance. Note 5: All limits guaranteed at room temperature (standard typeface) and at temperature extremes (boldface type). All limits are used to calculate Outgoing Quality Level, and are 100% production tested. 3 www.national.com LM2941/LM2941C Electrical Characteristics—LM2941CT, LM2941CS LM2941/LM2941C Note 6: All limits guaranteed at room temperature (standard typeface) and at temperature extremes (boldface type). All room temperature limits are 100% production tested. All limits at temperature extremes are guaranteed via correlation using standard Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods. Note 7: The output voltage range is 5V to 20V and is determined by the two external resistors, R1 and R2. See Typical Application Circuit. Note 8: Output current capability will decrease with increasing temperature, but will not go below 1A at the maximum specified temperatures.

Measured when the output voltage has dropped 100mV from the nominal value obtained at (VOUT + 5V) input, dropout voltage is dependent upon load current and junction temperature. Input Voltage: The DC voltage applied to the input terminals with respect to ground. Input-Output Differential: The voltage difference between the unregulated input voltage and the regulated output voltage for which the regulator will operate. Line Regulation: The change in output voltage for a change in the input voltage. The measurement is made under conditions of low dissipation or by using pulse techniques such that the average chip temperature is not significantly affected. Load Regulation: The change in output voltage for a change in load current at constant chip temperature. Long Term Stability: Output voltage stability under accelerated life-test conditions after 1000 hours with maximum rated voltage and junction temperature. Output Noise Voltage: The rms AC voltage at the output, with constant load and no input ripple, measured over a specified frequency range. Quiescent Current: That part of the positive input current that does not contribute to the positive load current. The regulator ground lead current. Ripple Rejection: The ratio of the peak-to-peak input ripple voltage to the peak-to-peak output ripple voltage. Temperature Stability of VO: The percentage change in output voltage for a thermal variation from room temperature to either temperature extreme. Typical Applications 5V to 20V Adjustable Regulator 882303 Note: Using 1k for R1 will ensure that the input bias current error of the adjust pin will be negligible. Do not bypass R1 or R2. This will lead to instabilities. 7 www.national.com LM2941/LM2941C * Required if regulator is located far from power supply filter. ** COUT must be at least 22μF to maintain stability. May be increased without bound to maintain regulation during transients. Locate as close as possible to the regulator. This capacitor must be rated over the same operating temperature range as the regulator and the ESR is critical; see curve. 1A Switch 882306 *** To assure shutdown, select Resistor R3 to guarantee at least 300μA of pull-up current when S1 is open.
