3 Description
The LP3852 and LP3855 series of fast ultra-low
dropout linear regulators operate from a 2.5-V to 7-V
input supply. A wide range of preset output voltage
options are available. These ultra-low dropout linear
regulators respond very quickly to step changes in
load, which makes them suitable for low voltage
microprocessor applications. The LP3852 and
LP3855 are developed on a CMOS process which
allows low quiescent-current operation independent
of output load current, typically 4 mA at 1.5-A load
current. This CMOS process also allows the LP3852
and LP3855 to operate under extremely low dropout
conditions, typically 24 mV at 150-mA load current
and 240 mV at 1.5-A load current.
The LP3852 has an ERROR pin; it goes low when
the output voltage drops 10% below nominal value.
The LP3855 has a SENSE pin to improves regulation
at remote loads.
The LP3852 and LP3855 are available with fixed
output voltages from 1.8 V to 5 V with a specified
accuracy of ±1.5% at room temperature, and ±3%
over all conditions (varying line, load, and
temperature). Contact Texas Instruments Sales for
specific voltage option needs.
