LP3987
Micropower micro SMD 150 mA Ultra Low-Dropout
CMOS Voltage Regulators with sleep MODE
General Description
The LP3987 is a 150mA fixed output voltage regulator with
very low dropout voltage designed specially to meet require-
ments of battery-powered applications. The additional sleep
MODE feature will reduce current consumption during
standby operation to prolong the usage of battery.
Dropout Voltage: 100mV maximum dropout with 150mA
load.
Shutdown: Less than 1A quiescent current.
Sleep Mode: Typically 14A quiescent current during sleep
MODE to reduce battery consumption.
Enhanced Stability: The LP3987 is stable with minimum
1F
20% low ESR ceramic output capacitor as low as 5m
and high quality tantalum capacitors.
The LP3987 is available in thin and thick 5 Bump micro SMD
package. Performance is specified for -40C to 125C.
This device is available with output voltage options of 2.6V,
2.8V, & 2.85V. For other voltage options, please contact
National Semiconductor Corporation.

* The pin numbering scheme for the micro SMD package was revised in April, 2002 to conform to JEDEC standard. Only the pin numbers
were revised. No changes to the physical location of the inputs/outputs were made. For reference purposes, the obsolete numbering
scheme had VEN as pin 1, GND as pin 2, VOUT as pin 3, VIN as pin 4, and MODE as pin 5.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating Ratings are conditions under which operation of the device
is guaranteed. Operating Ratings do not imply guaranteed performance limits. For guaranteed performance limits and associated test conditions, see the Electrical
Characteristics tables.
Note 2: All voltages are with respect to the potential at the GND pin.
Note 3: The Absolute Maximum power dissipation depends on the ambient temperature and can be calculated using the formula:
P
D
= (T
J
- T
A
)/
JA
,
Where T
J
is the junction temperature, T
A
is the ambient temperature, and
JA
is the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. For instant, if V
IN
in target application
is 4.2V and worse case current consumption is 90mA. Therefore P
MAX_DISSIPATION
= (4.2-2.7)*0.09 =135mW. With P
MAX_DISSIPATION
is 135mW, T
Jmax
is 125C
and worse case ambient temperature (TA ) in target application is 85C,
JA
= (125-85)/0.135 = 296C/W.
Note 4: The human body model is 100pF discharged through 1.5k
.
Note 5: This electrical specification is guaranteed by design.
