7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview

The LP2952 and LP2953 are very high accuracy micropower voltage regulators with low quiescent current (130 μA, typical) and low dropout voltage (typically 60 mV at light loads and 490 mV at 250 mA). They are ideally suited for use in battery-powered systems.

The LP2952 and LP2953 block diagram contains several features, including:

  • Very high accuracy 1.23-V reference.
  • Internal protection circuitry, such as thermal foldback current limit, thermal shutdown protection, and reverse battery-input protection.
  • Fixed 5-V and 3.3-V versions.
  • Error flag output which may be used for a power-on reset.
  • Shutdown input, allowing turn off the regulator when the SHUTDOWN pin is pulled low.

LP2953 versions only:

  • An auxiliary comparator is designed for customer special purpose when shutdown is activated, this is a CMOS- or TTL-compatible output level.
  • Automatic output discharge when the SHUTDOWN pin is pulled low.

7.3 Feature Description

7.3.1 Fixed Voltage Options and Programmable Voltage Version

The LP2952 and LP2953 provide 2 fixed output options: 3.3 V and 5 V. To meet different requirements for the application, they can also be used as programmable voltage regulators with external resistor networks; see Application Information for more details.

7.3.2 High-Accuracy Output Voltage

With special and careful design to minimize all contributions to the output voltage error, the LP2952 and LP2953 distinguished themselves as very high output voltage accuracy micropower LDO. This includes a tight initial tolerance (0.5% typical), extremely good load and line regulation, and a very low output voltage temperature coefficient, making the part an ideal a low-power voltage reference.

7.3.3 Error Detection Comparator Output

The LP2952 and LP2953 will generate a logic low output when the output falls out of regulation by more than approximately 5%. See Application Information for more details.

7.3.4 Auxiliary Comparator

An auxiliary comparator is designed for customer special purpose when shutdown is activated. This block is still active and can be used to generate fault detection, low input line detection signal for system controllers. The comparator output level is CMOS- or TTL-compatible. See Application Information for more details.

7.3.5 Short-Circuit Protection (Current Limit)

The internal current limit circuit is used to protect the LDO against high-load current faults or shorting events. The LDO is not designed to operate in a steady-state current limit. During a current-limit event, the LDO sources constant current. Therefore, the output voltage falls when load impedance decreases. Note also that if a current limit occurs and the resulting output voltage is low, excessive power may be dissipated across the LDO resulting in a thermal shutdown of the output. A thermal foldback feature limits the short-circuit current to protect the regulator from damage under all load conditions. If the OUT pin is forced below 0 V before SHUTDOWN goes high and the load current required exceeds the thermal foldback current limit, the device may not start up correctly.

7.3.6 Thermal Protection

The device contains a thermal shutdown protection circuit to turn off the output current when excessive heat is dissipated in the LDO. The thermal time-constant of the semiconductor die is fairly short, and thus the output cycles on and off at a high rate when thermal shutdown is reached until the power dissipation is reduced. The internal protection circuitry of the device is designed to protect against thermal overload conditions. The circuitry is not intended to replace a proper heatsink. Continuously running the device into thermal shutdown degrades its reliability.

7.3.7 Automatic Output Discharge

Both LP2952 and LP2953 employ an internal 50-mA (typical) pulldown to discharge the output when the SHUTDOWN pin is low and the output is disabled.

7.4 Device Functional Mode

7.4.1 Shutdown Mode

When pulling the SHUTDOWN pin to low level, the LP2952 and LP2953 will enter shutdown mode, and a very low quiescent current is consumed. This function is designed for applications which needs a shutdown mode to effectively enhance battery life cycle. When the SHUTDOWN pin is low the automatic output discharge circuity will be active. See Application Information for more details.

Operation with 30 V ≥ VIN > VOUT(TARGET) + 1 V

The device operate if the input voltage is equal to, or exceeds, VOUT(TARGET) + 1 V, and SHUTDOWN is pulled to high level. At input voltages below the minimum VIN requirement, the devices do not operate correctly and output voltage may not reach target value.
