DESCRIPTION
The LP3962/LP3965 series of fast ultra low-dropout
linear regulators operate from a +2.5V to +7.0V input
supply. 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 LP3962/LP3965 are
developed on a CMOS process which allows low
quiescent current operation independent of output
load current. This CMOS process also allows the
LP3962/LP3965 to operate under extremely low
dropout conditions.
Dropout Voltage: Ultra low dropout voltage; typically
38mV at 150mA load current and 380mV at 1.5A load
current.
Ground Pin Current: Typically 5mA at 1.5A load
current.
Shutdown Mode: Typically 15µA quiescent current
when the shutdown pin is pulled low.
Error Flag: Error flag goes low when the output
voltage drops 10% below nominal value (for LP3962).
SENSE: Sense pin improves regulation at remote
loads. (For LP3965)
Precision Output Voltage: Multiple output voltage
options are available ranging from 1.2V to 5.0V and
adjustable (LP3965), with a specified accuracy of
±1.5% at room temperature, and ±3.0% over all
conditions (varying line, load, and temperature).
Typical Application Circuits
*SD and ERROR pins must be pulled high through a 10kΩ pull-up resistor. Connect the ERROR pin to ground if this
function is not used. See Application Hints section for more information.
