These devices are an excellent choice for use in battery-powered applications such as cordless telephones, radio control systems, and portable computers. The LP2950 and LP2951 feature low quiescent current and low dropout voltage (typ. 50mV at light load and 380 mV at 100mA). This includes a tight initial tolerance (0.5% typ.), extremely good load and line regulation (0.05% typ.), and very low output temperature coefficient (20 ppm/C typ.), making the LP2950/LP2951 useful as a low-power voltage reference. The error flag output feature is used as a power-on reset for warning of a low output voltage, due to a falling input voltage. The logiccompatible shutdown feature enables the regulator to be switched ON and OFF. The LP2950 is offered in a 3-pin TO-92 package compatible with other 5V, 3.3V regulators. The LP2951 is available in an 8-lead SOIC package.

Note 2: Unless otherwise specified all limits guaranteed for TJ = 25C, VIN = 6V, IL = 100A and CL = 1F. Additional conditions for the 8-pin versions are feedback tied to 5V tap and output tied to output sense (VOUT = 5V) and VSHUTDOWN 0.8V. Note 3: Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low duty cycle. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are covered under the specification for thermal regulation. Note 4: Line regulation for the LP2951 is tested at IL = 1mA. For IL = 100 A and TJ = 125C, line regulation is guaranteed by design to 0.2%. See typical performance characteristics for line regulation versus temperature and load current. Note 5: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100 mV below its nominal value measured at 1V differential. At very low values of programmed output voltage, the minimum input supply voltage of 2V (2.3V over temperature) must be taken into account. Note 6: VREF VOUT (VIN - 1V), 2.3 VIN30V, 100AIL 100mA, TJ TJMAX. Note 7: Comparator thresholds are expressed in terms of a voltage differential at the feedback 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 95 mV x 5V/1.235 = 384 mV. Thresholds remain constant as a percent of VOUT as VOUT is varied, with the dropout warning occurring at typically 5% below nominal, 7.5% guaranteed. Note 8: VSHUTDOWN 2V, VIN 30V, VOUT =0, Feedback pin tied to 5V Tap. Note 9: All typical values are not guaranteed. The value could vary from lot to lot.

Low Dropout Voltage Regulators 7 (c)Copyright 2001 Sipex Corporation LP2950/51 APPLICATION HINTS EXTERNAL CAPACITORS The stability of the LP2950/LP2951 requires a 1.0F or greater capacitor between output and ground. Oscillation could occur without this capacitor. Most types of tantalum or aluminum electrolytic works fine here. For operations below -25C solid tantalum is recommended since the many aluminum types have electrolytes that freeze at about -30C. The ESR of about 5 or less and resonant frequency above 500kHz are the most important parameters in the value of the capacitor. The capacitors value may be increased without limit. remains 5% below normal regardless of the programmed output voltage of the regulator. At lower values of output current, less output capacitance is required for stability. For the currents below 10mA the value of the capacitor can be reduced to 0.33 F and 0.1 F for 1mA. More output capacitance is needed for the 8-pin version at voltages below 5V since it runs the error amplifier at lower gain. At worst case 3.3 F or greater must be used for the condition of 100mA load at 1.23V output. The error comparator has an open-collector output, which requires an external pull-up resistor. Depending on the system requirements the resistor may be returned to 5V output or other supply voltage. In determining the value of this resistor, note that the output is rated to sink 400 A, this value adds to battery drain in a low battery condition. Suggested values range from 100K to 1M. If the output is unused this resistor is not required. The LP2950/51 unlike other low dropout regulators will remain stable and in regulation with no load in addition to the internal voltage divider. This feature is especially important in applications like CMOS RAM keep-alive. When setting the output voltage of the LP2950/51 version with external resistors, a minimum load of 1A is recommended PROGRAMMING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE OF LP2951 The LP2951 may be pin-strapped for 5V using its internal voltage divider by tying Pin 1 (output) to Pin 2 (sense) and Pin 7 (feedback) to Pin 6 (5V Tap). Also, it may be programmed for any output voltage between its 1.235V reference and its 30V maximum rating . As seen in Figure 2, an external pair of resistors is required. Refer to the below equation for the programming of the output voltage: Figure 1 shows the timing diagram depicting the ERROR signal and the regulator output voltage as the LP2951 input is ramped up and down. The ERROR signal becomes low at around 1.3V input, and goes high around 5V input (input voltage at which VOUT = 4.75). Since the LP2951Os dropout voltage is load dependent, the input voltage trip point (around 5V) will vary with the load current. The output voltage trip point (approx. 4.75V) does not vary with load. If there is more than 10 inches of wire between the input and the AC filter capacitor or if a battery is used as the input then a 1A tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitor should be placed from the input to the ground. VOUT = VREF x (1 + R1/R2)+ IFBR1 The VREF is 1.235 and IFB is the feedback bias current, nominally 20nA. The minimum recommended load current of 1 A forces an upper limit of 1.2M on value of R2. If no load is presented the IFB produces an error of typically 2% in VOUT which may be eliminated at room temperature by trimming R 1. To improve the accuracy choose the value of R2 = 100k this reduces the error by 0.17% and increases the resistor program current by 12A. Since the LP2951 typically draws 60A at no load with Pin 2 open-circuited this is a small price to pay Instability can occur if there is stray capacitance to the LP2951 feedback terminal (pin 7). This could cause more problems when using a higher value of external resistors to set the output voltage. This problem can be fixed by adding a 100pF capacitor between output and feedback and increasing the output capacitor to at least 3.3 F. 4.75V OUTPUT VOLTAGE \ REDUCING OUTPUT NOISE It may be an advantage to reduce the AC noise present at the output. One way is to reduce the regulator bandwidth by increasing the size of the output capacitor. This is the only way that noise can be reduced on the 3 lead LP2950 but is relatively inefficient, as increasing the capacitor from 1F to 220 F only decreases the noise from 430V to 160VRMS for a 100kHz bandwidth at 5V output. Noise could also be reduced fourfold by a bypass capacitor across R 1, since it reduces the high frequency gain from 4 to unity. Pick _______ ERROR* +5.0V INPUT VOLTAGE +1.3V + CBYPASS 1 / 2R1 x 200 Hz + or choose 0.01F. When doing this, the output capacitor must be increased to 3.3F to maintain stability. These changes reduce the output noise from 430V to 100VRMS for a 100kHz bandwidth at 5V output. With the bypass capacitor added, noise no longer scales with output voltage so that improvements are more dramatic at higher output voltages. * See Application Info. Figure 1.
