Electrical specifications do not apply when operating the device outside of its rated operating conditions. Note 2: The ESD rating of pins 3 and 4 is 1 kV. Note 3: The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, TJ(MAX), the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, θJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated using: The value of θJA for the SOT-23 package is 220˚C/W and the micro SMD package is 320˚C/W. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown. Note 4: If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the LP2982 output must be diode-clamped to ground. Note 5: The output PNP structure contains a diode between the VIN and VOUT terminals that is normally reverse-biased. Reversing the polarity from VIN to VOUT will turn on this diode. Note 6: temperature range are guaranteed through correlation using Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods. The limits are used to calculate National’s Average Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL). Note 7: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100 mV below the value measured with a 1V differential. Note 8: The ON/OFF inputs must be properly driven to prevent possible misoperation. For details, refer to Application Hints. Note 9: See Typical Performance Characteristics curves.

INPUT CAPACITOR: An input capacitor whose value is ≥ 1 µF is required with the LP2982 (amount of capacitance can be increased without limit). This capacitor must be located a distance of not more than 0.5" from the input pin of the LP2982 and returned to a clean analog ground. Any good quality ceramic or tantalum can be used for this capacitor. OUTPUT CAPACITOR: The output capacitor must meet both the requirement for minimum amount of capacitance and E.S.R. (equivalent series resistance) value. Curves are provided which show the allowable ESR range as a function of load current for various output voltages and capacitor values (refer to Figure 1, Figure 2). IMPORTANT: The output capacitor must maintain its ESR in the stable region over the full operating temperature to assure stability. Also, capacitor tolerance and variation with temperature must be considered to assure the minimum amount of capacitance is provided at all times. This capacitor should be located not more than 0.5" from the output pin of the LP2982 and returned to a clean analog ground. LOW-CURRENT OPERATION: In applications where the load current is < 1 mA, special consideration must be given to the output capacitor. Circuitry inside the LP2982 is specially designed to reduce operating (quiescent) current at light loads down to about 65 µA. The mode of operation which yields this very low quiescent current also means that the output capacitor ESR is critical. For optimum stability and minimum output noise, it is recommended that a 10Ω resistor be placed in series with the output capacitor in any applications where IL < 1 mA. CAPACITOR CHARACTERISTICS TANTALUM: Tantalum capacitors are the best choice for use with the LP2982. Most good quality tantalum can be used with the LP2982, but check the manufacturer’s data sheet to be sure the ESR is in range. It is important to remember that ESR increases sharply at lower temperatures ( < 10˚C) and a capacitor that is near the upper limit for stability at room temperature can cause instability when it gets cold. In applications which must operate at very low temperatures, it may be necessary to parallel the output tantalum capacitor with a ceramic capacitor to prevent the ESR from going up too high (see next section for important information on ceramic capacitors). CERAMIC: Ceramic capacitors are not recommended for use at the output of the LP2982. This is because the ESR of a ceramic can be low enough to go below the minimum stable value for the LP2982. A good 2.2 µF ceramic was measured and found to have an ESR of about 15 mΩ, which is low enough to cause oscillations. If a ceramic capacitor is used on the output, a 1Ω resistor should be placed in series with the capacitor. ALUMINUM: Because of large physical size, aluminum electrolytic are not typically used with the LP2982. They must 13 meet the same ESR requirements over the operating temperature range, which is more difficult because of their large increase in ESR at cold temperature. An aluminum electrolytic can exhibit an ESR increase of as much as 50X when going from 20˚C to −40˚C. Also, some aluminum electrolytic are not operational below −25˚C because the electrolyte can freeze. DS012679-43 FIGURE 1. 5V/2.2 µF ESR Curves DS012679-44 FIGURE 2. 3V/4.7 µF ESR Curves BYPASS CAPACITOR The 0.01 µF capacitor connected to the bypass pin to reduce noise must have very low leakage. The current flowing out of the bypass pin comes from the bandgap reference, which is used to set the output voltage. This capacitor leakage current causes the output voltage to decline by an amount proportional to the current. Typical values are −0.015%/nA @ −40˚C, −0.021%/nA @ 25˚C, and −0.035%/nA @ +125˚C. This data is valid up to a maximum leakage current of about 500 nA, beyond which the bandgap is so severely loaded that it can not function. Care must be taken to ensure that the capacitor selected will not have excessive leakage current over the operating temperature range of the application. A high quality ceramic capacitor which uses either NPO or COG type dielectric material will typically have very low leakage. Small surface mount polypropylene or polycarbonate film capacitors also have extremely low leakage, but are slightly larger than ceramics. www.national.com LP2982 Application Hints REVERSE CURRENT PATH (Continued) ON/OFF INPUT OPERATION The LP2982 is shut off by pulling the ON/OFF input low, and turned on by driving the input high. If this feature is not to be used, the ON/OFF input should be tied to VIN to keep the regulator on at all times (the ON/OFF input must not be left floating). To ensure proper operation, the signal source used to drive the ON/OFF input must be able to swing above and below the specified turn-on/turn-off voltage thresholds which guarantee an ON or OFF state (see Electrical Characteristics). The ON/OFF signal may come from either a totem-pole output, or an open-collector output with pull-up resistor to the LP2982 input voltage or another logic supply. The high-level voltage may exceed the LP2982 input voltage, but must remain within the Absolute Maximum Ratings for the ON/OFF pin. It is also important that the turn-on/turn-off voltage signals applied to the ON/OFF input have a slew rate which is greater than 40 mV/µs. Important: the regulator shutdown function will operate incorrectly if a slow-moving signal is applied to the ON/OFF input. Micro SMD Mounting The micro SMD package requires specific mounting techniques which are detailed in National Semiconductor Application Note # 1112. Referring to the section Surface Mount Technology (SMT) Assembly Considerations, it should be noted that the pad style which must be used with the 5-pin package is the NSMD (non-solder mask defined) type. For best results during assembly, alignment ordinals on the PC board may be used to facilitate placement of the micro SMD device. Micro SMD Light Sensitivity Exposing the micro SMD device to direct sunlight will cause misoperation of the device. Light sources such as Halogen lamps can also affect electrical performance if brought near to the device. The wavelenghts which have the most detrimental effect are reds and infra-reds, which means that the fluorescent lighting used inside most buildings has very little effect on performance. A micro SMD test board was brought to within 1 cm of a fluorescent desk lamp and the effect on the regulated output voltage was negligible, showing a deviation of less than 0.1% from nominal. The power transistor used in the LP2982 has an inherent diode connected between the regulator input and output (see below). DS012679-39 If the output is forced above the input by more than a VBE, this diode will become forward biased and current will flow from the VOUT terminal to VIN. This current must be limited to < 100 mA to prevent damage to the part. The internal diode can also be turned on by abruptly stepping the input voltage to a value below the output voltage. To prevent regulator misoperation, a Schottky diode should be used in any application where input/output voltage conditions can cause the internal diode to be turned on (see below). DS012679-40 As shown, the Schottky diode is connected in parallel with the internal parasitic diode and prevents it from being turned on by limiting the voltage drop across it to about 0.3V. www.national.com 14 LP2982 Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted 5-Lead Small Outline Package (M5) NS Package Number MF05A For Order Numbers, refer to Table 1in the “Ordering Information” section of this document. 15 www.national.com LP2982 Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted (Continued) NOTES: UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED 1.
