Product details
Overview
LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a micropower, ultra-low-dropout linear voltage regulator delivering a precise 3.3 V output at up to 200 mA, with 0.5% initial accuracy (A-grade), 180 mV typical dropout at full load, and <1 µA quiescent current in shutdown - deployed in battery-powered portable electronics requiring stable low-noise supply rails.
For engineers reviewing the LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB datasheet, LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB pinout, LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB application, or LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include fixed 3.3 V output accuracy, thermal/overcurrent protection, ERROR flag supervision, shutdown control interface, and SOIC-8 package compatibility with standard PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB uses a vertically integrated PNP (VIP) bipolar process to achieve ultra-low dropout (180 mV @ 200 mA) while maintaining high precision and stability across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature. Its internal 1.23 V reference and error amplifier enable tight regulation without external compensation when configured for fixed 3.3 V output via TAP–FEEDBACK and OUT–SENSE pin strapping.
It integrates an open-collector ERROR flag that asserts low when output drops >5% below nominal, plus active-high SHUTDOWN with defined turn-on/turn-off thresholds (VH = 1.4 V, VL = 0.55 V) and ≥40 mV/µs slew-rate requirement - making it suitable for power sequencing and brownout monitoring in compact portable systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3 V ±0.5% (A grade) at 25°C; ±0.7% over −40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable logic-level compliance for 3.3 V microcontrollers and peripherals. |
| Max Output Current | 200 mA continuous - supports moderate-power digital subsystems without external pass devices. |
| Dropout Voltage | 180 mV typical at 200 mA load - enables operation down to VIN = 3.48 V, critical for single-cell Li-ion or 4-cell alkaline applications. |
| Quiescent Current | <1 µA in shutdown; 1–2.1 mA at 200 mA load - minimizes standby drain and improves battery runtime. |
| Ground Pin Current | 1 mA typical at 200 mA - low, stable GND current simplifies current-sense design and reduces PCB heating. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.1 V to 16 V - accommodates wide input sources including unregulated adapters, multi-cell batteries, and automotive-derived rails. |
| Error Flag Threshold | Asserts low when VOUT falls >5% below nominal - provides deterministic reset signaling for host processors without external supervisors. |
Pinout & Package
LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D package), 4.90 mm × 3.91 mm body size, with gull-wing leads and standard JEDEC MS-012AC footprint. Thermal performance is characterized with RθJA = 114.4°C/W on high-K test board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: GROUND | Power return reference | Primary ground connection; must be low-impedance path to system ground plane for regulation stability and noise rejection. |
| 2: FEEDBACK | Regulation sense input | Tied to TAP pin for fixed 3.3 V mode; connects to external divider for adjustable output - sets output voltage via internal 1.23 V reference. |
| 3: TAP | Internal divider mid-point | Output of internal resistive divider; tied to FEEDBACK to select factory-trimmed 3.3 V output without external components. |
| 4: IN | Unregulated input supply | Accepts 2.1–16 V input; requires ≥2.2 µF ceramic capacitor placed within 12.7 mm of pin for stability and transient response. |
| 5: OUT | Regulated output | Delivers 3.3 V at up to 200 mA; requires ≥4.7 µF ceramic output capacitor with appropriate ESR for loop stability. |
| 6: SENSE | Remote output sensing | Tied to OUT pin in fixed-voltage mode to enable remote-sense capability - compensates for PCB trace IR drop in high-accuracy applications. |
| 7: ERROR | Open-collector fault flag | Active-low output asserting when VOUT drops >5%; requires external pull-up to VOUT or another rail ≤16 V; sinks up to 300 µA. |
| 8: SHUTDOWN | Enable/disable control | Active-high logic input; pulled high to enable, low to enter <1 µA shutdown; threshold VH = 1.4 V, VL = 0.55 V; requires ≥40 mV/µs slew rate. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 0.5% output accuracy (A grade) | Ensures 3.3 V remains within 3.283–3.317 V at room temperature - eliminates need for post-regulation trimming in precision analog or MCU supply rails. |
| Ultra-low dropout (180 mV @ 200 mA) | Enables operation from marginal input sources (e.g., 3.48 V minimum), extending usable battery voltage range and reducing heat dissipation vs. higher-dropout regulators. |
| Built-in ERROR flag with 5% threshold | Provides autonomous output supervision without external comparators - simplifies system-level reset architecture and reduces BOM count. |
| Thermal and overcurrent protection | Shuts down output during sustained overload or excessive junction temperature (>150°C typical), preventing device damage and enabling robust field reliability. |
| Fixed 3.3 V configuration (no external resistors) | Reduces component count and layout area by using internal TAP–FEEDBACK and OUT–SENSE strapping - ideal for space-constrained portable designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV70733PDQNR | CMOS-based, 300 mA rated, 250 mV dropout @ 300 mA, 2.5 µA quiescent current (active), no ERROR flag. | Lacks built-in supervision; better suited for high-current, low-IQ apps where fault detection is handled externally. | Select TLV70733PDQNR only if higher output current or lower active IQ is prioritized over integrated error monitoring and thermal protection. |
| TPS7A2033PDQNR | CMOS LDO, 300 mA, 170 mV dropout @ 300 mA, 6.5 µA IQ, no ERROR flag, ±1% accuracy (standard grade). | No fault flag or shutdown hysteresis; tighter dropout but looser initial accuracy and no thermal foldback. | Choose TPS7A2033PDQNR for cost-sensitive, high-volume consumer apps where 1% accuracy suffices and external supervision is acceptable. |
Compared with TLV70733PDQNR and TPS7A2033PDQNR, LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB uniquely combines A-grade 0.5% accuracy, integrated ERROR flag with 5% threshold, thermal/overcurrent protection, and bipolar VIP process ultra-low dropout - making it the only option among the three qualified for safety-critical portable medical and industrial logging applications requiring autonomous rail supervision.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB over temperature?
The LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB delivers 3.3 V output with ±0.5% tolerance at 25°C (A grade). Over the full −40°C to +125°C junction temperature range, output voltage remains within ±0.7% of nominal (3.274 V to 3.326 V), verified per TI's Electrical Characteristics table in SNVS137I Rev I. This stability is enabled by its 20 ppm/°C temperature coefficient and precision internal reference.
Does LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB require external resistors to set its 3.3 V output?
No - LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB is factory-configured for fixed 3.3 V output and requires no external resistors. It achieves this by internally strapping the TAP and FEEDBACK pins and the OUT and SENSE pins, as confirmed in the "Typical Applications" section of the datasheet. External resistors are only needed for adjustable-output variants.
What is the minimum input voltage required for LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB to regulate at 200 mA?
The minimum input voltage for LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB to maintain regulation at 200 mA is 3.48 V - calculated as 3.3 V + 180 mV typical dropout. The device supports inputs as low as 2.1 V, but below 3.48 V, it enters dropout and output voltage declines linearly with input. This value is specified in the "Dropout Voltage" row of the Electrical Characteristics table.
How does the ERROR pin on LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB function, and what external components are needed?
The ERROR pin on LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB is an open-collector output that pulls low when VOUT drops >5% below nominal (i.e., below ~3.135 V). It requires an external pull-up resistor to VOUT or another supply ≤16 V. TI specifies it can sink up to 300 µA. If unused, the pin may be left floating - no pull-down or termination is required.
Is LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes - LP2986IMMX-3.3/NOPB carries the "/NOPB" suffix, which TI explicitly defines as "No Lead (Pb)-Free", indicating full RoHS compliance and lead-free finish per JEDEC J-STD-609. The SOIC-8 package uses matte tin lead plating and meets IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) for unlimited floor life.
