Product details
Overview
LM2787BP/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a regulated switched-capacitor voltage inverter IC that inverts and regulates input supply voltage to deliver low-noise negative output between −1.5V and −5.2V, operates at 260 kHz switching frequency, draws only 400 µA quiescent current, and supports up to 10 mA output current for cellular phone power amplifier biasing.
For engineers reviewing the LM2787BP/NOPB datasheet, LM2787BP/NOPB pinout, LM2787BP/NOPB application, or LM2787BP/NOPB equivalent, this device is selected for low-noise negative rail generation in space-constrained portable electronics where EMI-sensitive analog biasing, shutdown-controlled power sequencing, and DSBGA footprint efficiency are critical design requirements.
Technical Context
The LM2787BP/NOPB integrates a fixed-frequency (260 kHz typical) charge-pump inverter stage followed by a low-dropout linear regulator to suppress ripple and improve PSRR. Its feedback pin (VFB) maintains a precise −1.20 V reference, enabling adjustable output via external resistor divider tied to VADJ (0 V to VIN).
It features active-low logic-level shutdown (SD), which reduces supply current to 0.05 µA and grounds both VOUT and VNEG. The architecture delivers 91% typical power efficiency at 10 mA load while maintaining <1 mV output ripple at 2.5 mA with specified 1 µF/0.3 Ω ESR capacitors.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage Range | Adjustable from −1.5 V to −5.2 V; set by external resistor divider referencing −1.20 V at VFB. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V; supports single-cell Li-ion and dual-cell alkaline battery systems without external regulation. |
| Switching Frequency | 260 kHz typical; enables compact 1 µF ceramic capacitor selection and minimizes EMI in RF-sensitive layouts. |
| Quiescent Current | 400 µA typical; ensures minimal battery drain during active operation in always-on portable subsystems. |
| Shutdown Current | 0.05 µA typical; allows deep-sleep power management in handheld instrumentation and wireless modems. |
| Output Ripple | 1 mV typical at 2.5 mA load; achieved via PSRR-enhanced LDO post-regulation of charge-pump output. |
| Max Output Current | 10 mA continuous; sufficient for GaAsFET PA biasing and low-power interface rails in cellular front-ends. |
Pinout & Package
LM2787BP/NOPB uses an 8-bump DSBGA (Die Size Ball Grid Array) package measuring 1.5 mm × 1.5 mm with 0.5 mm pitch, optimized for ultra-compact PCB layouts in mobile devices. Mounting requires NSMD (non-solder-mask-defined) pads per AN1112.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Cap+ | Positive terminal of flying capacitor C1; connects to internal charge-pump switch node. |
| B1 | VIN | Main positive input supply (2.7–5.5 V); powers both charge-pump and LDO stages. |
| C1 | VOUT | Regulated negative output; delivers low-noise, adjustable −1.5 V to −5.2 V after LDO filtering. |
| C2 | VFB | Feedback input referenced to −1.20 V; sets output voltage via resistor divider to VADJ. |
| C3 | SD | Active-low shutdown control; pulls VOUT/VNEG to GND and reduces IQ to 0.05 µA when asserted. |
| B3 | VNEG | Unregulated negative charge-pump output; used internally by LDO and accessible for auxiliary use. |
| A3 | Cap− | Negative terminal of flying capacitor C1; completes charge-transfer path during pump cycle. |
| A2 | GND | Analog ground reference for all internal circuitry; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar regulated negative voltage inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX680ESA+ | Unregulated inverter; no LDO stage, higher output ripple (>10 mV), fixed −2×VIN output. | Suitable only where noise immunity is non-critical and output voltage tracking is acceptable. | Select MAX680ESA+ only if cost sensitivity outweighs ripple and adjustability requirements. |
| TPS60403DBVR | Regulated inverter with 2.5 V to 5.5 V input, but fixed −3.3 V output and 1.5 mA max current. | Limited to low-current digital interface rails; cannot support 10 mA PA bias or adjustable voltage. | Choose TPS60403DBVR for simple, fixed −3.3 V generation in microcontroller peripherals where size and cost are primary. |
Compared with MAX680ESA+ and TPS60403DBVR, the LM2787BP/NOPB uniquely combines adjustable output (−1.5 V to −5.2 V), 10 mA capability, and integrated LDO ripple suppression-making it the only option among the three qualified for GaAsFET amplifier biasing in production cellular handsets.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for stable operation of the LM2787BP/NOPB?
The LM2787BP/NOPB requires a minimum input voltage of 2.7 V to maintain regulation across its full output range. Below this threshold, the internal charge-pump and LDO stages cannot sustain output voltage accuracy or ripple performance, and the device may enter dropout or fail to start. Operation at 2.7 V is validated over temperature and load per the datasheet's operating input voltage range specification.
How does the LM2787BP/NOPB achieve low output voltage ripple?
The LM2787BP/NOPB achieves low output voltage ripple through a two-stage architecture: first, a 260 kHz switched-capacitor inverter generates VNEG; second, an integrated low-dropout linear regulator filters that signal using high PSRR to attenuate switching artifacts. With 1 µF/0.3 Ω ESR capacitors, the LM2787BP/NOPB delivers 1 mV typical ripple at 2.5 mA-confirmed in Figure 10 of the SNVS080F datasheet.
Can the LM2787BP/NOPB generate a −3.3 V output?
Yes, the LM2787BP/NOPB can generate a precise −3.3 V output by configuring the external feedback resistor divider to set VFB = −1.20 V. Using Equation (1) from the datasheet with VADJ = GND, R1 = 1.78 MΩ and R2 = 1.0 MΩ yields −3.3 V at VOUT. This adjustment is fully supported across the device's −1.5 V to −5.2 V output range and validated over temperature.
What happens to VOUT and VNEG during shutdown of the LM2787BP/NOPB?
When the SD pin is pulled low, the LM2787BP/NOPB disables both the charge-pump and LDO stages and actively discharges VOUT and VNEG to GND through internal switches. This behavior is explicitly documented in the Shutdown section of the datasheet and ensures no floating negative rails remain during system sleep-critical for preventing latch-up in downstream analog circuitry.
Is the LM2787BP/NOPB compatible with standard 0.5 mm pitch DSBGA reflow profiles?
Yes, the LM2787BP/NOPB's 8-bump DSBGA package is compatible with standard lead-free reflow profiles per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020. TI specifies NSMD pad design and recommends peak temperatures ≤260°C for 10 seconds. Mounting guidance-including stencil design and alignment ordinals-is detailed in Application Note AN1112 to ensure reliable solder joint formation and avoid voiding.
