Product details
Overview
LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output, 200 mA ultra-low-dropout linear voltage regulator with programmable power-on reset delay and shutdown control, delivering 3.0 V ±0.5% (A-grade) output at up to 200 mA load, 180 mV dropout at full load, and <2 µA quiescent current in shutdown - deployed in battery-powered portable electronics requiring stable low-noise supply and reliable system initialization.
For engineers reviewing the LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB datasheet, LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB pinout, LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB application, or LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its SOIC-8 package compatibility, 3.0 V precision output with 0.5% tolerance, integrated reset delay via single external capacitor, and thermal/overcurrent protection for embedded power management in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB uses a vertically integrated PNP (VIP) pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout (180 mV @ 200 mA) and low ground pin current (1 mA @ 200 mA). Its error comparator monitors output voltage against an internal 1.23 V reference, asserting the open-collector ERROR pin when VOUT drops >5% below nominal.
Power-on reset delay is implemented by charging an external capacitor on the DELAY pin using a 2.2 µA current source; the ERROR pin transitions high once the DELAY pin voltage reaches 1.23 V. Shutdown is controlled via a logic-level input that draws <1 µA at 0 V and supports 1.4 V turn-on threshold.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 3.0 V ±0.5% (A-grade) at 25°C; maintains regulation across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature range. |
| Max Output Current | 200 mA continuous; peak output current exceeds 250 mA before foldback activation. |
| Dropout Voltage | 180 mV @ 200 mA load (typical); enables operation with VIN as low as 3.18 V while sustaining 3.0 V output. |
| Quiescent Current | <2 µA in shutdown mode; 1 mA typical ground current at full 200 mA load. |
| Reset Threshold | ERROR pin asserts low when VOUT falls ≥5% below 3.0 V (i.e., ≤2.85 V); hysteresis of 2.0% prevents chatter. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.1 V to 16 V operating; absolute max survival rating is −0.3 V to +16 V. |
| Shutdown Threshold | Turns off when SHUTDOWN pin voltage <0.18 V (max); turns on when >1.4 V (min). |
Pinout & Package
LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB is supplied in an 8-pin SOIC (D) surface-mount package per drawing D0008A, with standard 1.27 mm lead pitch and JEDEC MS-012AC footprint. Thermal resistance θJ−A = 160°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - BYPASS | Reference bypass node | Not used on LP2987 (only present on LP2988); leave unconnected or float. |
| 2 - DELAY | Reset delay timing node | Accepts external capacitor to set power-on reset timeout; charged by 2.2 µA current source. |
| 3 - GROUND | Analog ground reference | Return path for internal circuitry and output current; must connect to clean analog ground plane. |
| 4 - INPUT | Regulator input supply | Accepts 2.1–16 V DC; requires ≥2.2 µF input capacitor placed within 12.7 mm of pin. |
| 5 - SENSE | Output voltage feedback | Monitors regulated output via internal resistive divider; connects directly to VOUT for standard configuration. |
| 6 - OUTPUT | Regulated output terminal | Delivers 3.0 V ±0.5% at up to 200 mA; requires ≥4.7 µF output capacitor with appropriate ESR. |
| 7 - SHUTDOWN | Enable/disable control | Active-high logic input; drives regulator into <2 µA sleep state when pulled low. |
| 8 - ERROR | Open-collector fault flag | Sinks current when VOUT <2.85 V or during power-up delay; requires external pull-up resistor. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 180 mV @ 200 mA enables use in single-cell Li-ion or multi-cell alkaline systems where input margin is tight. |
| Programmable power-on reset | Single external capacitor on DELAY pin sets reset timeout without external timers or microcontroller intervention. |
| High accuracy output | 0.5% initial tolerance (A-grade) reduces need for post-regulation trimming in precision analog or RF subsystems. |
| Low-noise operation | 100 µVRMS output noise (300 Hz–50 kHz) supports noise-sensitive analog circuits like ADC references or audio codecs. |
| Integrated protection | Thermal shutdown and current limiting prevent damage during overload, short-circuit, or high ambient conditions. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO voltage regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LP2985AIM-3.0/NOPB | 150 mA rated output; 170 mV dropout @ 150 mA; no DELAY or ERROR pins; smaller SOT-23-5 package. | Lacks power-on reset functionality and fault reporting; suited for simpler point-of-load regulation without sequencing needs. | Select when board space is critical and reset signaling is handled externally or not required. |
| TLC7703IPW | 3 V fixed output; 200 mA; includes built-in 200 ms reset delay (non-programmable); no shutdown pin; 20 µA quiescent current. | Fixed delay eliminates external capacitor but offers no user adjustment; higher IQ limits ultra-low-power use cases. | Select when deterministic, factory-set reset timing suffices and shutdown control is unnecessary. |
Compared with LP2985AIM-3.0/NOPB, the LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB provides higher current capability and integrated reset sequencing; compared with TLC7703IPW, it offers adjustable delay and lower quiescent current, making it preferable for battery-sensitive designs requiring flexible power-up control.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB over temperature?
The LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB is an "A-grade" device with initial output voltage tolerance of ±0.5% at 25°C. Over the full −40°C to +125°C junction temperature range, total variation remains within ±0.8% of nominal 3.0 V, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under ΔVO conditions.
Can the LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB be used without connecting the DELAY pin?
Yes - the DELAY pin may be left unconnected or tied to GROUND if power-on reset functionality is not required. When unused, the ERROR pin will still assert low during undervoltage conditions (VOUT <2.85 V), but no timed reset delay will occur at startup.
Does the LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB require an external bypass capacitor on the BYPASS pin?
No - the BYPASS pin is reserved for the LP2988 variant only. The LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB does not utilize this pin; it should be left unconnected or floating. Connecting a capacitor here has no functional effect and is not recommended.
What is the minimum input voltage needed for the LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB to regulate 3.0 V at 200 mA?
The LP2987AIM-3.0/NOPB requires a minimum input voltage of 3.18 V to maintain 3.0 V output at 200 mA load, based on its typical 180 mV dropout voltage. At lighter loads (e.g., 1 mA), dropout drops to 1 mV, allowing regulation from as low as 3.001 V.
How does the ERROR pin behave during normal operation and fault conditions?
The ERROR pin is an open-collector output that remains high (via external pull-up) during normal regulation. It pulls low when VOUT drops ≥5% below 3.0 V (≤2.85 V) or during the power-on reset delay period - providing both undervoltage detection and hardware reset signaling in a single pin.
