LP2986 Micropower, 200 mA Ultra Low-Dropout Fixed or Adjustable Voltage Regulator General Description Features The LP2986 is a 200 mA precision LDO voltage regulator which offers the designer a higher performance version of the industry standard LP2951. Using an optimized VIP™ (Vertically Integrated PNP) process, the LP2986 delivers superior performance: Dropout Voltage: Typically 180 mV @ 200 mA load, and 1 mV @ 1 mA load. Ground Pin Current: Typically 1 mA @ 200 mA load, and 200 µA @ 10 mA load. Sleep Mode: The LP2986 draws less than 1 µA quiescent current when shutdown pin is pulled low. Error Flag: The built-in error flag goes low when the output drops approximately 5% below nominal. Precision Output: The standard product versions available can be pin-strapped (using the internal resistive divider) to provide output voltages of 5.0V, 3.3V, or 3.0V with guaranteed accuracy of 0.5% (“A” grade) and 1% (standard grade) at room temperature. n n n n n n n n n n Ultra low dropout voltage Guaranteed 200 mA output current SO-8 and mini-SO8 surface mount packages < 1 µA quiescent current when shutdown Low ground pin current at all loads 0.5% output voltage accuracy (“A” grade) High peak current capability (400 mA typical) Wide supply voltage range (16V max) Overtemperature/overcurrent protection −40˚C to +125˚C junction temperature range Applications n Cellular Phone n Palmtop/Laptop Computer n Camcorder, Personal Stereo, Camera Block Diagram 01293501 VIP™ is a trademark of National Semiconductor Corporation. © 2002 National Semiconductor Corporation DS012935 www.national.com LP2986 Micropower, 200 mA Ultra Low-Dropout Fixed or Adjustable Voltage Regulator January 2002 LP2986 Connection Diagrams and Ordering Information Surface Mount Packages: 8-Lead LLP Surface Mount Package 01293502 SO-8/Mini SO-8 Package See NS Package Drawing Number M08A/MUA08A 01293543 Top View See NS Package Drawing Number LDC08A Basic Application Circuits Application Using Internal Resistive Divider 01293503 www.national.com 2 LP2986 Basic Application Circuits (Continued) Application Using External Divider 01293504 Ordering Information TABLE 1.

Electrical specifications do not apply when operating the device outside of its rated operating conditions. Note 2: The ESD rating of the Feedback pin is 500V and the Tap pin is 1.5 kV. Note 3: The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, TJ(MAX), the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, θJ−A, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated using: The value of θJ−A for the SO-8 (M) package is 160˚C/W, and the mini SO-8 (MM) package is 200˚C/W. The value θJ−A for the LLP (LD) 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. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown. Note 4: If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the LM2986 output must be diode-clamped to ground. Note 5: The output PNP structure contains a diode between the V IN and VOUT terminals that is normally reverse-biased. Forcing the output above the input will turn on this diode and may induce a latch-up mode which can damage the part (see Application Hints). Note 6: 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 7: 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 8: To prevent mis-operation, the Shutdown input must be driven by a signal that swings above VH and below VL with a slew rate not less than 40 mV/µs (see Application Hints). Note 9: Temperature coefficient is defined as the maximum (worst-case) change divided by the total temperature range. Note 10: VFB ≤ VOUT ≤ (VIN − 1), 2.5V ≤ VIN ≤ 16V, 100 µA ≤ IL ≤ 200 mA, TJ ≤ 125˚C.

LLP Package Devices The LP2986 is offered in the 8 lead LLP surface mount package to allow for increased power dissipation compared to the SO-8 and Mini SO-8. For details on thermal performance as well as mounting and soldering specifications, refer to Application Note AN-1187. ESR Curves For 5V Output 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 (≥ 2.2 µF) is required between the LP2986 input and ground (amount of capacitance may be increased without limit). This capacitor must be located a distance of not more than 0.5” from the input pin and returned to a clean analog ground. Any good quality ceramic or tantalum may be used for this capacitor. OUTPUT CAPACITOR: The output capacitor must meet the requirement for minimum amount of capacitance and also have an appropriate E.S.R. (equivalent series resistance) value. www.national.com 01293506 12 ALUMINUM: The large physical size of aluminum electrolytics makes them unattractive for use with the LP2986. Their ESR characteristics are also not well suited to the requirements of LDO regulators. (Continued) ESR Curves For 2.5V Output The ESR of an aluminum electrolytic is higher than a tantalum, and it also varies greatly with temperature. A typical aluminum electrolytic can exhibit an ESR increase of 50X when going from 20˚C to −40˚C. Also, some aluminum electrolytics can not be used below −25˚C because the electrolyte will freeze. USING AN EXTERNAL RESISTIVE DIVIDER The LP2986 output voltage can be programmed using an external resistive divider (see Basic Application Circuits). The resistor connected between the Feedback pin and ground should be 51.1k. The value for the other resistor (R1) connected between the Feedback pin and the regulated output is found using the formula: VOUT = 1.23 x (1 + R1/51.1k) It should be noted that the 25 µA of current flowing through the external divider is approximately equal to the current saved by not connecting the internal divider, which means the quiescent current is not increased by using external resistors. A lead compensation capacitor (CF) must also be used to place a zero in the loop response at about 50 kHz. The value for C F can be found using: CF = 1/(2π x R1 x 50k) 01293507 IMPORTANT: The output capacitor must maintain its ESR in the stable region over the full operating temperature range of the application to assure stability. The minimum required amount of output capacitance is 4.7 µF. Output capacitor size can be increased without limit. It is important to remember that capacitor tolerance and variation with temperature must be taken into consideration when selecting an output capacitor so that the minimum required amount of output capacitance is provided over the full operating temperature range. A good Tantalum capacitor will show very little variation with temperature, but a ceramic may not be as good (see next section). A good quality capacitor must be used for CF to ensure that the value is accurate and does not change significantly over temperature. Mica or ceramic capacitors can be used, assuming a tolerance of ± 20% or better is selected. If a ceramic is used, select one with a temperature coefficient of NPO, COG, Y5P, or X7R. Capacitor types Z5U, Y5V, and Z4V can not be used because their value varies more that 50% over the −25˚C to +85˚C temperature range. CAPACITOR CHARACTERISTICS TANTALUM: The best choice for size, cost, and performance are solid tantalum capacitors. Available from many sources, their typical ESR is very close to the ideal value required on the output of many LDO regulators. Tantalums also have good temperature stability: a 4.7 µF was tested and showed only a 10% decline in capacitance as the temperature was decreased from +125˚C to −40˚C. The ESR increased only about 2:1 over the same range of temperature. However, it should be noted that the increasing ESR at lower temperatures present in all tantalums can cause oscillations when marginal quality capacitors are used (where the ESR of the capacitor is near the upper limit of the stability range at room temperature). CERAMIC: For a given amount of a capacitance, ceramics are usually larger and more costly than tantalums. Be warned that the ESR of a ceramic capacitor can be low enough to cause instability: a 2.2 µF ceramic was measured and found to have an ESR of about 15 mΩ. If a ceramic capacitor is to be used on the LP2986 output, a 1Ω resistor should be placed in series with the capacitor to provide a minimum ESR for the regulator. Another disadvantage of ceramic capacitors is that their capacitance varies a lot with temperature: Large ceramic capacitors are typically manufactured with the Z5U temperature characteristic, which results in the capacitance dropping by a 50% as the temperature goes from 25˚C to 80˚C. This means you have to buy a capacitor with twice the minimum COUT to assure stable operation up to 80˚C. SHUTDOWN INPUT OPERATION The LP2986 is shut off by driving the Shutdown input low, and turned on by pulling it high. If this feature is not to be used, the Shutdown input should be tied to VIN to keep the regulator output on at all times. To assure proper operation, the signal source used to drive the Shutdown input must be able to swing above and below the specified turn-on/turn-off voltage thresholds listed as VH and VL, respectively (see Electrical Characteristics). It is also important that the turn-on (and turn-off) voltage signals applied to the Shutdown input have a slew rate which is not less than 40 mV/µs. CAUTION: the regulator output state can not be guaranteed if a slow-moving AC (or DC) signal is applied that is in the range between VH and VL. REVERSE INPUT-OUTPUT VOLTAGE The PNP power transistor used as the pass element in the LP2986 has an inherent diode connected between the regulator output and input. During normal operation (where the input voltage is higher than the output) this diode is reverse-biased. However, if the output is pulled above the input, this diode will turn ON and current will flow into the regulator output. 13 www.national.com LP2986 Application Hints LP2986 Application Hints VIN to VOUT (cathode on VIN, anode on VOUT), to limit the reverse voltage across the LP2986 to 0.3V (see Absolute Maximum Ratings). (Continued) In such cases, a parasitic SCR can latch which will allow a high current to flow into VIN (and out the ground pin), which can damage the part. In any application where the output may be pulled above the input, an external Schottky diode must be connected from www.national.com 14 LP2986 Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted 8-Lead Mini-Small Outline Molded Package, JEDEC NS Package Number MUA08A 15 www.national.com LP2986 Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted (Continued) 8-Lead (0.150” Wide) Molded Small Outline Package, JEDEC NS Package Number M08A www.national.com 16 inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted (Continued) 8-Lead LLP Surface Mount Package NS Package Number LDC08A LIFE SUPPORT POLICY NATIONAL’S PRODUCTS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED FOR USE AS CRITICAL COMPONENTS IN LIFE SUPPORT DEVICES OR SYSTEMS WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL COUNSEL OF NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION.
