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 (RθJA), as given by the following equation: TA-MAX = TJ-MAX-OP – (RθJA × PD-MAX). See Application and

All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pin.
Minimum and Maximum limits are specified by design, test, or statistical analysis. Typical numbers are not ensured, but do represent the
most likely norm.
The device maintains a stable, regulated output voltage without a load current.
Quiescent current is defined here as the difference in current between the input voltage source and the load at the OUT pin.
Ground current is defined here as the total current flowing to ground as a result of all input voltages applied to the device.
Dropout voltage is the voltage difference between the input and the output at which the output voltage drops to 100 mV below its
nominal value. This parameter only applies to output voltages above 2.5 V.
Short-circuit current is measured with OUT pulled to 0 V and IN worst case = 6 V.
This specification is specified by design.
There is a 1-MΩ resistor between EN pin and ground on the device.

The minimum capacitance must be greater than 0.33 µF over the full range of operating conditions. The capacitor tolerance must be
30% or better over the full temperature range. The full range of operating conditions for the capacitor in the application should be
considered during device selection to ensure this minimum capacitance specification is met. TI recommends X7R capacitors; however,
capacitor types X5R, Y5V and Z5U may be used with consideration of the application and conditions.

7.1 Overview
Designed to meet the needs of sensitive RF and analog circuits, the LP5900 provides low noise, high PSRR, and
low quiescent current, as well as low line and load transient response figures. Using new innovative design
techniques, the LP5900 offers class-leading noise performance without the need for a separate noise filter
capacitor.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 No-Load Stability
The LP5900 remains stable and in regulation with no external load.
7.3.2 Enable Control
The LP5900 enable (EN) pin is internally held low by a 1-MΩ resistor to GND. The EN must be higher than the
VIH threshold to ensure that the device is fully enabled under all operating conditions. The EN pin voltage must
be lower than the VIL threshold to ensure that the device is fully disabled.
7.3.3 Low Noise Output
Any internal noise at the LP5900 reference voltage is reduced by a first order low-pass RC filter before it is
passed to the output buffer stage. This eliminates the need for the external bypass capacitor for noise
suppression.

Feature Description (continued)
7.3.4 Thermal-Overload Protection
Thermal-overload protection disables the output when the junction temperature rises to approximately 160°C
which allows the device to cool. When the junction temperature cools to approximately 140°C, the output is
enabled. Based on power dissipation, thermal resistance, and ambient temperature, the thermal protection circuit
may cycle on and off. This thermal cycling limits the dissipation of the regulator and protects it from damage as a
result of overheating.
7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Operation with Enable Control
The LP5900 may be switched ON or OFF by a logic input at the EN pin. A high voltage at this pin turns the
device on. When the EN pin is low, the regulator output is off, and the device typically consumes 3 nA. However,
if the application does not require the shutdown feature, the EN pin can be tied to IN pin to keep the regulator
output permanently on. In this case the supply voltage must be fully established 500 μs or less to ensure correct
operation of the start-up circuit. Failure to comply with this condition may cause a delayed start-up time of
several seconds.
A 1 MΩ pull-down resistor ties the EN input to ground, and this ensures that the device will remain off when the
EN pin is left open circuit. To ensure proper operation, the signal source used to drive the EN input must be able
to swing above and below the specified turn-on/off voltage thresholds listed in the Electrical Characteristics
section under VIL and VIH.
7.4.2 Operation with Minimum Operating Input Voltage (VIN)
The LP5900 does not include any dedicated UVLO circuitry. The LP5900 internal circuitry is not fully functional
until VIN is at least 2.5 V. The output voltage is not regulated until VIN ≥ (VOUT + VDO).

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The LP5900 is a linear regulator capable of supplying a 150-mA output current. Designed to meet the
requirements of RF and nalog circuits, the device provides low noise, high PSRR, low quiescent current, and low
line transient response figures. Using new innovative design techniques the LP5900 offers class-leading device
noise performance and is designed to work with 0.47-μF input and output ceramic capacitors (no bypass
capacitor is required).
8.2 Typical Application
Figure 16 shows the typical application circuit for the LP5900. Input and output capacitances may need to be
increased above the 0.47-μF minimum for some applications.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
8.2.2.1 Power Dissipation
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 device, 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 Recommended Operating Conditions, the allowable power
dissipation for the device in a given package can be calculated using Equation 1:

(TJMAX - TA)
PD =
RTJA
(1)
The actual power dissipation across the device can be represented by Equation 2:
PD = (VIN – VOUT) × IOUT
(2)
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.
8.2.2.2 External Capacitors
Like any low-dropout regulator, the LP5900 requires external capacitors for regulator stability. The LP5900 is
specifically designed for portable applications requiring minimum board space and smallest components. These
capacitors must be correctly selected for good performance.
8.2.2.2.1 Input Capacitor
An input capacitor is required for stability. The input capacitor should be at least equal to or greater than the
output capacitor. It is recommended that a 0.47-µF capacitor be connected between the LP5900 IN pin and
ground.
This capacitor must be located a distance of not more than 1 cm from the input pin and returned to a clean
analog ground. Any good quality ceramic, tantalum, or film capacitor may be used at the input.
Important: To ensure stable operation it is essential that good PCB practices are employed to minimize ground
impedance and keep input inductance low. If these conditions cannot be met, or if long leads are to be used to
connect the battery or other power source to the LP5900, then it is recommended to increase the input capacitor
to at least 2.2 µF. Also, tantalum capacitors can suffer catastrophic failures due to surge current when connected
to a low-impedance source of power (like a battery or a very large capacitor). If a tantalum capacitor is used at
the input, it must be ensured by the manufacturer to have a surge current rating sufficient for the application.
There are no requirements for the equivalent series resistance (ESR) on the input capacitor, but tolerance and
temperature coefficient must be considered when selecting the capacitor to ensure the capacitance will remain
0.47 μF ±30% over the entire operating temperature range.
8.2.2.2.2 Output Capacitor
The LP5900 is designed specifically to work with very small ceramic output capacitors. A ceramic capacitor
(dielectric types X5R or X7R) in the 0.47 μF to 10 μF range, and with ESR between 5 mΩ to 500 mΩ, is suitable
in the LP5900 application circuit. For this device the output capacitor should be connected between the OUT pin
and a good ground connection and should be mounted within 1 cm of the device.
It may also be possible to use tantalum or film capacitors at the device output, OUT, but these are not as
attractive for reasons of size and cost (see the Capacitor Characteristics section below).
The output capacitor must meet the requirement for the minimum value of capacitance and have an ESR value
that is within the range 5 mΩ to 500 mΩ for stability.
8.2.2.2.3 Capacitor Characteristics
The LP5900 is designed to work with ceramic capacitors on the input and output to take advantage of the
benefits they offer. For capacitance values in the range of 0.47 μF to 4.7 μF, 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 0.47-μF ceramic capacitor is in the range of 20 mΩ to 40 mΩ, which easily meets the
equivalent series resistance (ESR) requirement for stability for the LP5900.
The temperature performance of ceramic capacitors varies by type and manufacturer. Most large value ceramic
capacitors (≥ 2.2 µF) are manufactured with Z5U or Y5V temperature characteristics, which results in the
capacitance dropping by more than 50% as the temperature goes from 25°C to 85°C.
A better choice for temperature coefficient in a ceramic capacitor is X7R. This type of capacitor is the most stable
and holds the capacitance within ±15% over the temperature range. 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 0.47 μF to 4.7 μF 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.

10.4 DSBGA Light Sensitivity
Exposing the DSBGA device to direct light may cause incorrect operation of the device. Light sources such as
halogen lamps can affect electrical performance if they are situated in proximity to the device.
Light with wavelengths in the red and infra-red part of the spectrum has the most detrimental effect; thus, the
fluorescent lighting used inside most buildings has very little effect on performance.
10.5 WSON Mounting
The 6-lead WSON package requires specific mounting techniques which are detailed in AN-1187 Leadless
Leadframe Package (LLP) (SNOA401). Referring to the section PCB Design Recommendations, it should be
noted that the pad style which should be used with the WSON package is the NSMD (non-solder mask defined)
type. Additionally, it is recommended the PCB terminal pads to be 0.2 mm longer than the package pads to
create a solder fillet to improve reliability and inspection.
The exposed thermal pad on the bottom of the WSON package must be connected to a copper area on the PCB
under the package. TI recommends use of thermal vias to remove heat from the package into the PCB is
recommended. Connect the thermal pad to ground potential or leave floating. Do not connect the thermal pad to
any potential other than the same ground potential seen at device pin 3.
