DESCRIPSION
The LM29150, LM29151 and LM29152 are high current, high accuracy, and low-dropout voltage regulators.
Using process with a PNP pass element, these regulators feature 350mV (full load) dropout voltages and very
low ground current. These devices also find applications in lower current, low dropout-critical systems, where
their tiny dropout voltage and ground current values are important attributes.
The LM29150, LM29151 and LM29152 are fully protected against over current faults, reversed input polarity,
reversed lead insertion, over temperature operation, and positive and negative transient voltage spikes.
LM29151 features logic level enable control and an error flag which signals whenever the output falls out of
regulation. On the LM29151 and LM29152, the ENABLE pin may be tied to Vin if it is not required for ON/OFF
control.

Note 1. Maximum positive supply voltage of 60V must be of limited duration (<100msec) and duty cycle(≤1%). The maximum continuous
supply voltage is 26V.
Note 2. Full load current (IFL) is defined as 1.5A.
Note 3. Dropout voltage is defined as the input-to-output differential when the output voltage drops to 99% of its nominal value with VOUT
to VIN.
Note 4. VIN = VOUT(nominal) +1V. For example, use VIN = 4.3V for a 3.3V regulator or use 6V for a 5V regulator. Employ pulse-testing
procedures to minimize temperature rise.
Note 5. Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the source is the sum of the load current plus
the ground pin current.
Note 6. Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.
Note 7. 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 200mA load pulse at VIN = 20V (a 4W pulse) for T= 10ms.
Note 8. VREF ≤ VOUT ≤ (VIN -1V), 2.3V ≤ VIN ≤ 26V, 10mA < IL < IFL, TJ< TJ Max.
Note 9. Comparator thresholds are expressed in terms of a voltage differential at the Adjust terminal below the nominal reference voltage
measured at. 6V input. 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 5V, the Error output is guaranteed to go low when the
output drops by 95mV x 5V/ 1.240V - 384mV. Thresholds remain constant as a percent of VOUT as VOUT is varied, with the dropout
warining occurring at typically 5% below nominal, 7.7% guaranteed.
Note 10. VEN ≤ 0.8V and VIN ≤26V, VOUT =0.
Note 11. When used in dual supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output voltage must be diode
clamped to ground.

LM29150/29151/29152
1.5A Very L.D.O Voltage Regulator
APPLICATION INFORMATION
The LM29150 are high performance low-dropout voltage regulators suitable for all moderate to high current
voltage regulator applications. Their 350mV dropout voltage at full load makes them especially valuable in
battery powered systems and as high efficiency noise filters in "post-regulator" applications. Unlike older
NPN-pass transistor designs, dropout performance of the PNP output of these devices is limited merely by
the low VCE saturation voltage.
The LM29150 family of regulators is fully protected from damage due to fault conditions. Current Limiting is
provided. This limiting is linear; output current under overload conditions is constant. Thermal shutdown
disables the device when the die temperature exceeds the 125℃ maximum safe operating temperature.
Transient protection allows device survival even when the input voltage spikes between -20V and +60V.
When the input voltage exceeds about 35V to 40V, the over voltage sensor temporarily disables the
regulator.
Figure 1. Linear regulators require only two capacitors for operation.
Thermal Design
Linear regulators are simple to use. The most complicated design parameters to consider are thermal
characteristics. Thermal design requires the following application-specific parameters:
- Maximum ambient temperature, TA
- Output Current, IOUT
- Output Voltage, VOUT
- Input Voltage, VIN
First, we calculate the power dissipation of the regulator from these numbers and the device parameters
from this datasheet.
PD=IOUT(1.01VIN-VOUT)
Where the ground current is approximated by 1% of IOUT. Then the heat sink thermal resistance is
determined with this formula:
T
-T
θSA = JMAX A - (θJC + θCS )
PD
Where TJMAX ≤ 125℃ and θ CS is between 0 and 2℃/W.

LM29150/29151/29152
1.5A Very L.D.O Voltage Regulator
Capacitor Requirements
For stability and minimum output noise, a capacitor on the regulator output is necessary. The value of this
capacitor is dependent upon the output current; lower currents allow smaller capacitors. LM29150
regulators are stable with the 10uF minimum capacitor values at full load. Where the regulator is powered
from a source with a high AC impedance, a 0.1uF capacitor connected between input and GND is
recommended. This capacitor should have good characteristics to above 250kHz.
Minimum Load Current
The LM29150 regulators are specified between finite loads. If the output is too small, leakage currents is too
small, leakage currents dominate and the output voltage rises. The 5mA minimum load current swamps any
expected leakage current across the operating temperature range.
Adjustable Regulator Design
The adjustable regulator versions, LM29152 allows programming the output voltage anywhere between
1.25V and the 26V maximum operating rating of the family.
Two resistors are used. Resistors can be quite large, up to 1MΩ, because of the very high input impedance
and low bias current of the sense comparator: The resistor values are calculated by:
R1=R2(
VOUT
- 1)
VREF
Where VOUT is desired output voltage, Figure 2 shows component definition. Applications with widely
varying load currents may scale the resistors to draw the minimum load current required for proper
operation.

Error Flag
LM29151 versions feature and Error Flag, which looks at the output voltage and signals and error condition
when this voltage and signals an error condition when this voltage drops 5% below its expected value. The
error flag is an open-collector output that pulls low under fault conditions. It may sink 10mA. Low output
voltage signifies a number of possible problems, including an over-current fault (the device is in current
limit) and low input voltage. The flag output is inoperative during over temperature shutdown conditions.

Enable input
LM29151 and LM29152 versions feature and enable (EN) input that allows ON/OFF control of the device.
Special design allows "zero" current drain when the device is disabled-only microamperes of leakage
current flows. The EN input has TTL/CMOS compatible thresholds for simple interfacing with logic, or may
be directly tied to ≤ 30V. Enabling the regulator requires approximately 20uA of current.
