Note 4: Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating ratings indicate conditions for which the device is intended to be functional, but do not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see Electrical characteristics. The guaranteed specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions. Note 5: At elevated temperatures, devices must be derated based on package thermal resistance. The device in the surface-mount package must be derated at θjA = 235˚C/W, junction-to-ambient. Please refer to the applications section on maximum current capability for further information. The device has internal thermal protection. Note 6: The human body model is a 100pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor into each pin. Note 7: : Typical numbers are at 25˚C and represent the most likely parametric norm. Note 8: : 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 Averaging Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL). Note 9: If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the LP2966EP output must be diode-clamped to ground. Note 10: The output PMOS structure contains a diode between the VIN and VOUT terminals that is normally reverse-biased. Reversing the polarity from VIN and VOUT will turn on this diode. Note 11: Output voltage line regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in input line voltage. Note 12: Output voltage load regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value when the load current changes from 1mA to 100mA. Note 13: Output voltage cross regulation is defined as the percentage change in the output voltage from the nominal value at one output when the load current changes from 1mA to full load in the other output. This is an important parameter in multiple output regulators. The specification for ∆VO1/∆IOUT2 is equal to the specification for ∆VO2/∆IOUT1. Note 14: Error Flag threshold and hysteresis are specified as the percentage below the regulated output voltage. Note 15: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100mV below the nominal value. Drop-out voltage specification applies only to output voltages greater than 2.7V. For output voltages below 2.7V, the drop-out voltage is nothing but the input to output differential, since the minimum input voltage is 2.7V.

Note 16: Output voltage tolerance specification also includes the line regulation and load regulation. Note 17: LP2966EP has fold back current limited short circuit protection. The knee is the current at which the output voltage drops 10% below the nominal value. Note 18: VSDT is the shutdown pin voltage threshold below which the output is disabled. Note 19: The condition VIN = VO(NOM) + 1V applies when Vout1 = Vout2. If Vout1 ≠ Vout2, then this condition would apply to the output which is greater in value. As an example, if Vout1 = 3.3V and Vout2 = 5V, then the condition VIN = VO(NOM)+ 1V would apply to Vout2 only. Note 20: Turn-on delay is the time interval between the low to high transition on the shutdown pin to the output voltage settling to within 5% of the nominal value. Turn-off delay is the time interval between the high to low transition on the shutdown pin to the output voltage dropping below 50% of the nominal value. The external load impedance influences the output voltage decay in shutdown mode. Note 21: The limits for the ground pin current specification, IGND(0,1) will be same as the limits for the specification, IGND(1,0).

LP2966EP Enhanced Plastic
Applications Information
INPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION LP2966EP requires a minimum input capacitance of 1µF between the input and ground pins to prevent any impedance interactions with the supply. This capacitor should be located very close to the input pin. This capacitor can be of any type such as ceramic, tantalum, or aluminium. Any good quality capacitor which has good tolerance over temperature and frequency is recommended. OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION The LP2966EP requires a minimum of 1µF capacitance on each output for proper operation. To insure stability, this capacitor should maintain its ESR (equivalent series resistance) in the stable region of the ESR curves (Figure 1 and Figure 2 over the full operating temperature range of the application. The output capacitor should have a good tolerance over temperature, voltage, and frequency. The output capacitor can be increased without limit. Larger capacitance provides better stability and noise performance. The output capacitor should be connected very close to the Vout pin of the IC.
lot with temperature, voltage, and frequency. So while using Tantalum capacitors, it should be ensured that the ESR is within the limits for stability over the full operating temparature range. For output voltages greater than 2.5V, good quality ceramic capacitors (such as the X7R series from Taiyoyuden) can also be used with LP2966EP in applications not requiring light load operation ( < 5mA for the 5V output option). Once again, it should be ensured that the capacitance value and the ESR are within the limits for stability over the full operating temperature range. The ESRD Series Polymer Aluminium Electrolytic capacitors from Cornell Dubilier are very stable over temperature and frequency. The excellent capacitance and ESR tolerance of these capacitors over voltage, temperature and frequency make these capacitors very suitable for use with LDO regulators. OUTPUT NOISE Noise is specified in two waysSpot Noise or Output noise density is the RMS sum of all noise sources, measured at the regulator output, at a specific frequency (measured with a 1Hz bandwidth). This type of noise is usually plotted on a curve as a function of frequency. Total output Noise or Broad-band noise is the RMS sum of spot noise over a specified bandwidth, usually several decades of frequencies. Attention should be paid to the units of measurement. Spot noise is measured in units µV/√Hz or nV/√Hz and total output noise is measured in µV(rms). The primary source of noise in low-dropout regulators is the internal reference. In CMOS regulators, noise has a low frequency component and a high frequency component, which storngly depend on the silicon area and quiescent current. Noise can be reduced in two ways: by increasing the transistor area or by increasing the current drawn by the internal reference. Increasing the area will increase the die size and decreases the chance of fitting the die into a small package. Increasing the current drawn by the internal reference increases the total supply current (ground pin current) of the IC. Using an optimized trade-off of ground pin current and die size, LP2966EP achieves low noise performance with low quiescent current in an MSOP-8 package. SHORT-CIRCUIT FOLDBACK PROTECTION In the presence of a short or excessive load current condition, the LP2966EP uses an internal short circuit foldback mechanism that regulates the maximum deliverable output current. A strong negative temperature coefficient is designed into the circuit to enable extremely higher peak output current capability (in excess of 400mA per output at room temperature, see typical curves). Thus, a system designer using the LP2966EP can achieve higher peak output current capability in applications where the LP2966EP internal junction temperature is kept below 125˚C. Refer to the applications section on calculating the maximum output current capability of the LP2966EP for your application.

ERROR FLAG OPERATION The LP2966EP produces a logic low signal at the Error Flag pin (ERROR) when the corresponding output drops out of regulation due to low input voltage, current limiting, or thermal limiting. This flag has a built in Hysteresis. The timing diagram in Figure 3 shows the relationship between the

ERROR and the output voltage. In this example, the input voltage is changed to demonstrate the functionality of the Error Flag.
20099335
FIGURE 3. Error Flag Operation The internal error flag comparators have open drain output stages. Hence, the ERROR pins should be pulled high through a pull up resistor. Although the ERROR pin can sink current of 1mA, this current adds to the battery drain. Hence, the value of the pull up resistor should be in the range of 100kΩ to 1MΩ. The ERROR pins must be connected to ground if this function is not used. It should also be noted that when the shutdown pins are pulled low, the ERROR pins are forced to be invalid for reasons of saving power in shutdown mode. SHUTDOWN OPERATION The two LDO regulators in the LP2966EP have independent shutdown. A CMOS Logic level signal at the shutdown( SD) pin will turn-off the corresponding regulator. Pins SD1 and SD2 must be actively terminated through a 100kΩ pull-up resistor for a proper operation. If these pins are driven from a source that actively pulls high and low (such as a CMOS rail to rail comparator), the pull-up resistor is not required. These pins must be tied to Vin if not used. DROP-OUT VOLTAGE The drop-out voltage of a regulator is defined as the minimum input-to-output differential required to stay within 100mV of the output voltage measured with a 1V differential. The LP2966EP uses an internal MOSFET with an Rds(on) of 1Ω. For CMOS LDOs, the drop-out voltage is the product of the load current and the Rds(on) of the internal MOSFET. REVERSE CURRENT PATH The internal MOSFET in the LP2966EP has an inherent parasitic diode. During normal operation, the input voltage is higher than the output voltage and the parasitic diode is reverse biased. However, if the output is pulled above the input in an application, then current flows from the output to the input as the parasitic diode gets forward biased. The output can be pulled above the input as long as the current in the parasitic diode is limited to 150mA. MAXIMUM OUTPUT CURRENT CAPABILITY Each output in the LP2966EP can deliver a current of more than 150mA over the full operating temperature range. However, the maximum output current capability should be derated by the junction temperature. Under all possible conditions, the junction temperature must be within the range specified under operating conditions. The LP2966EP is available in MSOP-8 package. This package has a junction to ambient temperature coefficient (θja) of 235 ˚C/W with minimum amount of copper area. The total power dissipation of the device is approximately given by: PD = (Vin - VOUT1)IOUT1 + (Vin-VOUT2)IOUT2 The maximum power dissipation, PDmax, that the device can tolerate can be calculated by using the formula PDmax = (Tjmax - TA)/θja where Tjmax is the maximum specified junction temperature (125˚C), and TA is the ambient temperature. The following figures show the variation of thermal coefficient with different layout scenarios.
