LP2950*/2951 100mA Low-Dropout Voltage Regulator General Description The LP2950 and LP2951 are micropower voltage regulators with very low dropout voltage (typically 40mV at light loads and 380mV at 100mA), and very low quiescent current (75A typical). The quiescent current of the LP2950 /LP2951 increases only slightly in dropout, thus prolonging battery life. This feature, among others, makes the LP2950 and LP2951 ideally suited for use in battery-powered systems. Available in a 3-pin TO-92 package, the LP2950 is pincompatible with the older 5V regulators. Additional system functions, such as programmable output voltage and logiccontrolled shutdown, are available in the 8-pin DIP and 8pin SOIC versions of the LP2951. Data sheets and support documentation can be found on Micrel’s web site at: www.micrel.com.

LP2950/2951 Additional features available with the LP2951 also include an error flag output that warns of a low output voltage, which is often due to failing batteries on the input. This may also be used as a power-on reset. A logic-compatible shutdown input is also available which enables the regulator to be switched on and off. This part may also be pin-strapped for a 5V output, or programmed from 1.24V to 29V with the use of two external resistors. The LP2950 is available as either a -02 or -03 version. The -02 and -03 versions are guaranteed for junction temperatures from –40°C to +125°C; the -02 version has a tighter output and reference voltage specification range over temperature. The LP2951 is available as an -02 or -03 version. The LP2950 and LP2951 have a tight initial tolerance (0.5% typical), a very low output voltage temperature coefficient which allows use as a low-power voltage reference, and extremely good load and line regulation (0.05% typical). This greatly reduces the error in the overall circuit, and is the result of careful design techniques and process control. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ordering Information Part Number LP2950-02BZ* LP2950-03BZ* LP2951-02BM LP2951-03BM LP2951-02BN LP2951-03BN** LP2951-02YM LP2951-03YM LP2951-02YN Note: * TO-92 Package discontinuance notification issued September 2007.

Note 11 Boldface limits apply at temperature extremes. Unless otherwise specified all limits guaranteed for TJ = 25°C, VIN = 6V, IL = 100µA and CL = 1µF. 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. Guaranteed and 100% production tested. Guaranteed but not 100% production tested. These limits are not used to calculate outgoing AQL levels. Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100mV 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. 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 95mV x 5V/1.235V = 384mV. 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. VREF ≤ VOUT ≤ (VIN – 1 V), 2.3V ≤ VIN ≤ 30V, 100µA < IL ≤ 100mA, TJ ≤ TJMAX. The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the TO-92 package is 180°C/W with 0.4” leads and 160°C/W with 0.25” leads to a PC board. The thermal resistance of the 8-pin DIP package is 105°C/W junction-to-ambient when soldered directly to a PC board. Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the SOIC (M) package is 160°C/W. May exceed input supply voltage. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. When used in dual-supply systems where the output terminal sees loads returned to a negative supply, the output voltage should be diode-clamped to ground. 11. VSHUTDOWN ≥ 2V, VIN ≤ 30 V, VOUT = 0, with Feedback pin tied to 5V Tap. 12. Output or reference voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range. 13. 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 50mA load pulse at VIN = 30V (1.25W pulse) for t = 10ms. 14. 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 in the specification for thermal regulation. 15. Line regulation for the LP2951 is tested at 150°C for IL = 1mA. For IL = 100µA and TJ = 125°C, line regulation is guaranteed by design to 0.2%. See Typical Performance Characteristics for line regulation versus temperature and load current.

LP2950/2951 Figure 1 is a timing diagram depicting the /ERROR signal and the regulated output voltage as the LP2951 input is ramped up and down. The /ERROR signal becomes valid (low) at about 1.3V input. It goes high at about 5V input (the input voltage at which VOUT = 4.75V). Since the LP2951’s dropout voltage is load-dependent (see curve in Typical Performance Characteristics), the input voltage trip point (about 5V) will vary with the load current. The output voltage trip point (approximately 4.75V) does not vary with load. The error comparator has an open-collector output which requires an external pull-up resistor. Depending on system requirements, this resistor may be returned to the 5V output or some other supply voltage. In determining a value for this resistor, note that while the output is rated to sink 400µA, this sink current adds to battery drain in a low battery condition. Suggested values range from 100k to 1MΩ. The resistor is not required if this output is unused. Programming the Output Voltage (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). Alternatively, it may be programmed for any output voltage between its 1.235V reference and its 30V maximum rating. An external pair of resistors is required, as shown in Figure 2. The complete equation for the output voltage is: ⎧ R⎫ VOUT = VREF × ⎨1 + 1 ⎬ + IFB R 2 ⎩ R2 ⎭ Application Information External Capacitors A 1.0µF (or greater) capacitor is required between the LP2950/LP2951 output and ground to prevent oscillations due to instability. Most types of tantalum or aluminum electrolytics will be adequate; film types will work, but are costly and therefore not recommended. Many aluminum electrolytics have electrolytes that freeze at about –30°C, so solid tantalum capacitors are recommended for operation below –25°C. The important parameters of the capacitor are an effective series resistance of about 5 or less and a resonant frequency above 500kHz. The value of this capacitor may be increased without limit. At lower values of output current, less output capacitance is required for output stability. The capacitor can be reduced to 0.33µF for current below 10mA or 0.1µF for currents below 1mA. Using the 8-pin versions at voltages below 5V runs the error amplifier at lower gains so that more output capacitance is needed. For the worst-case situation of a 100mA load at 1.23V output (Output shorted to Feedback) a 3.3µF (or greater) capacitor should be used. The LP2950 will remain stable and in regulation with no load in addition to the internal voltage divider, unlike many other voltage regulators. This is especially important in CMOS RAM keep-alive applications. When setting the output voltage of the LP2951 version with external resistors, a minimum load of 1µA is recommended. A 0.1µF capacitor should be placed from the LP2950/LP2951 input to ground 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. Stray capacitance to the LP2951 Feedback terminal (pin 7) can cause instability. This may especially be a problem when using high value external resistors to set the output voltage. Adding a 100pF capacitor between Output and Feedback and increasing the output capacitor to at least 3.3µF will remedy this. Error Detection Comparator Output A logic low output will be produced by the comparator whenever the LP2951 output falls out of regulation by more than approximately 5%. This figure is the comparator’s built-in offset of about 60mV divided by the 1.235V reference voltage. (Refer to the block diagram on Page 1). This trip level remains “5% below normal” regardless of the programmed output voltage of the LP2951. For example, the error flag trip level is typically 4.75V for a 5V output or 11.4V for a 12V output. The out of regulation condition may be due either to low input voltage, current limiting, or thermal limiting. where VREF is the nominal 1.235 reference voltage and IFB is the feedback pin bias current, nominally 20nA. The minimum recommended load current of 1µA forces an upper limit of 1.2MΩ on the value of R2, if the regulator must work with no load (a condition often found in CMOS in standby), IFB will produce a 2% typical error in VOUT which may be eliminated at room temperature by trimming R1. For better accuracy, choosing R2 = 100kΩ reduces this error to 0.17% while increasing the resistor program current to 12µA. Since the LP2951 typically draws 60µA at no load with Pin 2 open-circuited, this is a small price to pay. Reducing Output Noise In reference applications it may be advantageous to reduce the AC noise present at the output. One method is to reduce the regulator bandwidth by increasing the size of the output capacitor. This is the only method by which noise can be reduced on the 3-pin LP2950 and is relatively inefficient, as increasing the capacitor from 1µF to 220µF only decreases the noise from 430µV to 160µVrms for a 100kHz bandwidth at 5V output. September 2008 9 M9999-091208 Micrel, Inc. Noise can be reduced fourfold by a bypass capacitor across R1, since it reduces the high frequency gain from 4 to unity. Pick: C BYPASS ≅ 1 2πR 1 • 200Hz LP2950/2951 or about 0.01µF. When doing this, the output capacitor must be increased to 3.3µF to maintain stability. These changes reduce the output noise from 430µV to 100µVrms for a100kHz 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. Figure 1. ERROR Output Timing Figure 2.
