Product details
Overview
LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a micropower, 200 mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator with programmable power-on reset delay and bypass pin for noise reduction. It delivers 3.0 V output at ±0.5% accuracy (A-grade), 180 mV dropout at 200 mA, and 20 µVRMS output noise (BW = 300 Hz–50 kHz) when using 0.01 µF bypass capacitor. It operates across −40°C to +125°C and supports cellular phones, camcorders, and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB datasheet, LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB pinout, LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB application, or LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its low-noise LDO architecture, single-capacitor POR delay implementation, 8-pin VSSOP package footprint, and compatibility with high-PSRR, low-ESR output capacitors in space-constrained battery-powered systems.
Technical Context
The LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB uses an optimized vertically integrated PNP (VIP) process to achieve ultra-low dropout and minimal ground current across load range. Its error comparator provides open-collector reset flag with −4.6% to −6.6% output voltage threshold hysteresis and 220 mV low-state voltage at 300 µA sink current.
Power-on reset timing is set by external capacitor on DELAY pin (CDLY = TDELAY / 5.59×10⁵), while BYPASS pin connects to 0.01 µF low-leakage capacitor to reduce bandgap reference noise contribution-enabling 20 µVRMS output noise performance unmatched by standard LDOs like the LP2987.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.0 V ±0.5% (A-grade) at 25°C; ensures stable MCU core or sensor biasing without external feedback. |
| Dropout Voltage | 180 mV @ 200 mA load (typical); enables regulation from 3.18 V input-critical for single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly systems. |
| Output Noise | 20 µVRMS (300 Hz–50 kHz, CBYPASS = 0.01 µF); meets low-noise analog/RF supply requirements in camera modules and audio codecs. |
| Quiescent Current | <2 µA in shutdown mode; extends battery life in always-on wake-up circuits and IoT endpoint sleep states. |
| Power-On Reset Delay | Programmable via single external capacitor on DELAY pin; eliminates need for discrete RC timing networks or dedicated supervisor ICs. |
| Operating Temp Range | −40°C to +125°C junction temperature; qualified for automotive infotainment and industrial handheld environments. |
| Package | VSSOP-8 (DGK), 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm, 0.65 mm pitch; surface-mount compatible with fine-pitch PCB assembly and thermal vias for 200°C/W θJ−A. |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP-8 (DGK) package: 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, exposed thermal pad (not electrically connected). RoHS-compliant, Sn finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BYPASS | Bandgap reference bypass | Connects 0.01 µF low-leakage capacitor (NPO/COG ceramic or film) to reduce output noise by filtering reference ripple. |
| DELAY | Reset delay timing node | Sinks 2.2 µA constant current until VOUT reaches 95% of nominal; external capacitor sets POR delay time (TDELAY = 5.59×10⁵ × CDLY). |
| GROUND | Analog ground reference | Low-impedance return path for regulator core, error amplifier, and bypass circuit; must be routed separately from power ground. |
| INPUT | Input supply connection | Accepts 2.1 V to 16 V DC; requires ≥2.2 µF input capacitor within 12.7 mm of pin to suppress supply transients and EMI. |
| SENSE | Output voltage sensing | High-impedance feedback node; connects directly to regulated output or remote sense point to compensate for PCB trace IR drop. |
| OUTPUT | Regulated output terminal | Delivers up to 200 mA continuous; requires ≥4.7 µF output capacitor with ESR between 0.1 Ω and 2 Ω for stability. |
| SHUTDOWN | Enable/disable control | Active-high logic input; drives high (>1.6 V) to enable, low (<0.18 V) to enter <2 µA shutdown; slew rate ≥40 mV/µs required. |
| ERROR | Open-collector reset flag | Asserts low when VOUT drops >4.6% below nominal; requires external pull-up resistor to system rail for reset signaling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low-noise regulation | 20 µVRMS output noise with 0.01 µF bypass capacitor-enables clean supply for ADCs, PLLs, and RF front-ends. |

| Sub-2 µA shutdown current | Draws <2 µA quiescent current when SHUTDOWN pin is low-supports multi-year battery life in maintenance-free sensors. |
| High-accuracy output | ±0.5% output tolerance (A-grade) over temperature and line/load-reduces need for post-regulation trimming in precision systems. |
| Integrated protection | Thermal shutdown and current limiting prevent damage during overload or ambient temperature excursions up to +125°C. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-noise LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC7703IPW | 3.3 V fixed output, no bypass pin, 35 µVRMS noise, 250 mA output, SOIC-8 only | Lacks programmable POR and ultra-low-noise capability; suitable for non-critical digital rails only | Select when 3.3 V output is acceptable and noise sensitivity is low; not drop-in due to different pinout and no BYPASS function |
| LP2985AIM5-3.0/NOPB | Same 3.0 V A-grade output but SOT-23-5 package, no DELAY or BYPASS pins, 45 µVRMS noise, 150 mA max | Smaller footprint but no POR or noise-reduction features; limited current and thermal performance | Choose for space-constrained designs where POR and ultra-low noise are unnecessary; incompatible pin mapping prevents direct replacement |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB?
The LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB has an absolute maximum input supply voltage of +16 V and an operating input range of 2.1 V to +16 V. Exceeding 16 V may cause permanent damage. For reliable operation, maintain VIN ≤ VO + 1 V under full load to ensure sufficient headroom for dropout and transient margin.
Does LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB require an external bypass capacitor to achieve its specified 20 µVRMS noise performance?
Yes, LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB requires a 0.01 µF low-leakage capacitor (NPO/COG ceramic or film) connected to the BYPASS pin to achieve its 20 µVRMS output noise specification. Without this capacitor, noise reverts to ~100 µVRMS, matching the LP2987 variant. Leakage must remain below 1 nA over temperature to avoid output voltage drift.
How is the power-on reset delay time calculated for LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB?
The power-on reset delay time for LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB is calculated using CDLY = TDELAY / 5.59×10⁵, where CDLY is in farads and TDELAY in seconds. For example, a 100 ms delay requires a 180 nF capacitor. The DELAY pin sinks a precise 2.2 µA current, and the reset asserts low until CDLY charges to 1.23 V.
Can LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB be used with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes, LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB supports ceramic output capacitors, but a 1 Ω series resistor must be added to ensure minimum ESR (0.1–2 Ω) for stability. Standard 4.7 µF X5R/X7R ceramics typically exhibit <15 mΩ ESR and will cause oscillation without this resistor. Tantalum remains the preferred choice for optimal phase margin.
What is the thermal resistance (θJ−A) of the VSSOP-8 package used by LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB?
The VSSOP-8 (DGK) package for LP2988AIMM-3.0/NOPB has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJ−A) of 200°C/W under standard JEDEC test conditions. With proper PCB layout-including thermal vias to inner ground planes-actual θJ−A can be reduced to ~60°C/W, enabling 200 mA continuous operation at +85°C ambient.
