Product details
Overview
LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a fixed-output, 200 mA ultra-low-dropout linear voltage regulator with programmable power-on reset delay, designed for precision low-noise power rails in portable electronics. It delivers 2.8 V ±0.5% (A-grade) output at up to 200 mA, features 180 mV dropout at full load, <2 µA shutdown quiescent current, and operates across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature. It is used in cellular phones and camcorders where stable, low-noise 2.8 V bias is required for baseband processors or image sensors.
For engineers reviewing the LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB datasheet, LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB pinout, LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB application, or LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 200 mA, reset delay configurability via external capacitor, ground pin current vs. load, error flag threshold accuracy, and SOIC-8 thermal performance (θJ−A = 160°C/W).
Technical Context
The LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB uses a vertically integrated PNP (VIP) pass transistor architecture to achieve ultra-low dropout and low ground current across load range. Its internal error amplifier compares a resistive-sensed output against a 1.23 V bandgap reference, enabling precise regulation and tight line/load regulation (0.014%/V typical).
Power-on reset functionality is implemented via an internal 2.2 µA current source charging an external capacitor on the DELAY pin; the ERROR pin asserts low until the capacitor reaches 1.23 V, providing a user-programmable reset timeout. The open-collector ERROR output has 220 mV low-level voltage at 300 µA sink current and supports external pull-up for system reset signaling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.8 V ±0.5% (A-grade) at 25°C - ensures stable bias for 2.8 V logic or analog circuitry without post-regulation trimming. |
| Max Output Current | 200 mA continuous - supports moderate-power microcontrollers, RF front-ends, or sensor signal chains. |
| Dropout Voltage | 180 mV @ 200 mA - enables operation from 3.0 V input while maintaining regulation, critical for single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly systems. |
| Quiescent Current | <2 µA in shutdown - preserves battery life during deep sleep modes in portable devices. |
| Error Flag Threshold | −5% output deviation (±1.5% hysteresis) - provides reliable undervoltage detection for safe system reset before functional failure. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.1 V to 16 V - accommodates wide-input industrial or automotive auxiliary supplies while supporting low-voltage battery operation. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C junction - qualified for under-hood, industrial control, and ruggedized portable applications. |
Pinout & Package
LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package (Package Drawing D0008A), with θJ−A = 160°C/W and RoHS-compliant matte tin (Cu–Sn) lead finish. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner; device marking reads "2987I M2.8".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BYPASS | Reference bypass node | Not connected on LP2987 (only active on LP2988); leave unconnected or tie to ground per layout best practice. |
| DELAY | Reset delay timing input | Accepts external capacitor to set power-on reset timeout; charged by 2.2 µA internal current source. |
| GROUND | Power return path | Carries 1 mA typical ground current at 200 mA load; requires low-impedance analog ground connection. |
| INPUT | Main supply input | Accepts 2.1–16 V input; must be decoupled with ≥2.2 µF ceramic capacitor within 0.5 inch of pin. |
| SENSE | Output voltage feedback | Monitors regulated output via internal resistor divider; connects directly to VOUT for standard configuration. |
| OUTPUT | Regulated 2.8 V output | Requires ≥4.7 µF output capacitor with appropriate ESR (e.g., 1–10 Ω tantalum) for stability. |
| SHUTDOWN | Enable/disable control | Drives regulator into sub-2 µA sleep mode when pulled below 0.18 V; requires >1.4 V to enable. |
| ERROR | Open-collector fault/reset flag | Sinks current when output drops >5%; requires external pull-up for active-high reset signaling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable Power-On Reset Delay | Single external capacitor on DELAY pin sets reset timeout (e.g., 0.1 µF ≈ 56 ms); eliminates need for discrete RC timer or dedicated supervisor IC. |
| Ultra-Low Dropout Architecture | VIN–VOUT = 180 mV @ 200 mA enables use with 3.0 V input sources - critical for extending runtime in single-cell battery systems. |
| High Accuracy Output Regulation | ±0.5% over temperature and line/load - reduces need for downstream voltage calibration in precision analog or ADC reference rails. |
| Low Ground Pin Current | 1 mA @ 200 mA load (vs. >10 mA for many legacy LDOs) - minimizes total system power loss and improves efficiency at full load. |
| Integrated Overtemperature/Overcurrent Protection | Thermal shutdown and current limiting prevent damage during fault conditions without external circuitry - enhances system reliability. |
Applications
| Cellular Phone Baseband | Camcorder Image Sensor Bias |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO voltage regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC7701CP | Fixed 2.85 V output, no DELAY pin, higher 300 mV dropout @ 200 mA, 50 µA quiescent current in operation. | Lacks programmable reset delay and ultra-low IQ shutdown; suited for non-battery-critical, cost-sensitive designs. | Select TLC7701CP only if reset delay is unnecessary and higher dropout is acceptable in the input voltage margin. |
| TPS76328DBVR | 2.8 V output, 150 mV dropout @ 150 mA, 85 µA typical IQ, no integrated reset delay or ERROR flag. | Requires external supervisor IC for reset functionality; lower thermal resistance (θJ−A = 216°C/W in SOT-23) but smaller package. | Choose TPS76328DBVR when board space is constrained and external reset generation is already present in design. |
Compared with LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB, TLC7701CP trades reset programmability and micropower shutdown for lower cost and simpler BOM, while TPS76328DBVR offers better dropout and smaller footprint but adds complexity and cost via external reset circuitry.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB over temperature?
The LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB is an "A-grade" device with ±0.5% output voltage tolerance at 25°C and ±0.8% over the full −40°C to +125°C junction temperature range, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under ΔVO. This tight tolerance ensures consistent performance in thermally varying environments without external trimming.
Does the LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB support programmable power-on reset delay?
Yes, the LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB supports programmable power-on reset delay via its DELAY pin. An external capacitor (e.g., 0.1 µF) is charged by a 2.2 µA internal current source; the ERROR pin remains low until the capacitor voltage reaches 1.23 V, providing a user-defined reset timeout - no additional components are needed beyond the capacitor.
What is the maximum continuous output current for the LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB?
The LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB is rated for 200 mA continuous output current under specified thermal conditions. Peak output current exceeds 250 mA, and short-circuit current is internally limited to ~400 mA. Derating is required above ambient temperatures where power dissipation exceeds thermal limits of the SOIC-8 package (θJ−A = 160°C/W).
Can the LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB be used with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes, but only with series resistance: the LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB requires minimum ESR for stability, and typical ceramic capacitors have ESR too low (<1 Ω). A 1 Ω resistor must be placed in series with the ceramic output capacitor to meet stability requirements, whereas tantalum capacitors (e.g., 4.7 µF, 1–10 Ω ESR) work directly without added components.
Is the BYPASS pin used on the LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB?
No - the BYPASS pin is reserved for the LP2988 (low-noise variant) and is not functional on the LP2987IM-2.8/NOPB. TI documentation specifies that the BYPASS feature is exclusive to LP2988; on LP2987, the pin should be left unconnected or tied to ground per recommended layout practices to avoid noise coupling.
