LP3964 Typical Application Circuits
3 Description
The LP396x 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 fast to step changes in load which
makes them suitable for low-voltage microprocessor
applications. The LP3961 and LP3964 are developed
on a CMOS process which allows low quiescent
current operation independent of output load current,
as well as operation under extremely low dropout
conditions.
Dropout Voltage: Ultra-low dropout voltage; typically
24 mV at 80-mA load current and 240 mV at 800-mA
load current.
Ground Pin Current: Typically 4 mA at 800-mA load
current.
ERROR Flag: ERROR flag goes low when the output
voltage drops 10% below nominal value (for LP3961).
SENSE: SENSE pin improves regulation at remote
loads (for LP3964).
Precision Output Voltage: Multiple output voltage
options are available ranging from 1.2 V to 5 V and
adjustable (LP3964), with a specified accuracy of
±1.5% at room temperature, and ±3% over all
conditions (varying line, load, and temperature).

LP3961 Typical Application Circuit
A. *SD and ERROR pins must be pulled high
through a 10-kΩ pullup resistor. Connect
the ERROR pin to ground if this function is
not used.
