Product details
Overview
LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a micropower, 200 mA ultra-low-dropout linear voltage regulator with programmable power-on reset delay and bypass pin for noise reduction. It delivers 5.0 V output at ±0.5% accuracy (A-grade), 180 mV dropout at 200 mA, <2 µA shutdown quiescent current, and 20 µVRMS output noise (BW = 300 Hz–50 kHz) - deployed in cellular phones and camcorders requiring clean, stable low-noise bias.
For engineers reviewing the LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB datasheet, LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB pinout, LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB application, or LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5.0 V fixed output, SOIC-8/VSSOP-8 package compatibility, Bypass-pin-enabled low-noise operation, and integrated power-on reset with single-capacitor delay programming.
Technical Context
The LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB uses a vertically integrated PNP (VIP) pass transistor architecture to achieve ultra-low dropout and low ground pin current across load range. Its error comparator monitors output voltage against a 1.23 V internal reference, asserting the open-collector ERROR pin when output falls >5% below nominal.
Power-on reset timing is set by an external capacitor on the DELAY pin, charged by a 2.2 µA current source after regulation stabilizes; the Bypass pin connects to a 0.01 µF low-leakage capacitor to suppress bandgap reference noise and reduce output voltage noise by >80% versus LP2987.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 5.0 V, ±0.5% tolerance over temperature (A-grade) - ensures precise logic supply for microcontrollers and analog sensors. |
| Dropout Voltage | 180 mV @ 200 mA load (typical) - enables regulation from 5.18 V input, critical for battery-powered systems near end-of-discharge. |
| Output Noise | 20 µVRMS (300 Hz–50 kHz, CBYPASS = 0.01 µF) - supports noise-sensitive RF ICs and high-resolution ADCs without additional filtering. |
| Quiescent Current | <2 µA in shutdown mode - extends battery life in always-on standby circuits such as real-time clocks and wake-on-event subsystems. |
| Power-On Reset Delay | Programmable via single external capacitor (CDELAY = TDELAY/5.59×10⁵) - provides configurable system initialization timing without external timers or MCUs. |
| Operating Junction Temp | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive cabin and industrial control environments with minimal derating. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.1 V to 16 V - accommodates wide-input sources including Li-ion batteries (2.7–4.2 V), 5 V rails, and 12 V industrial supplies. |
Pinout & Package
VSSOP-8 (DGK) package: 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad, RoHS-compliant matte tin lead finish, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - BYPASS | Bandgap reference bypass | Connects to 0.01 µF low-leakage capacitor (NPO/COG ceramic) to reduce output noise; leakage <1 nA required to avoid output voltage shift. |
| 2 - DELAY | Reset delay timing node | Sinks 2.2 µA current until regulation stabilizes, then charges external capacitor to generate programmable power-on reset pulse width. |
| 3 - GROUND | Analog ground reference | Must be connected to clean analog ground plane; separates noise-sensitive reference circuitry from high-current output path. |
| 4 - INPUT | Unregulated input supply | Accepts 2.1–16 V; requires ≥2.2 µF input capacitor within 0.5″ of pin to suppress supply ripple and prevent instability. |
| 5 - SENSE | Output voltage feedback | High-impedance sense input for remote sensing; improves load regulation in PCB traces with >50 mΩ resistance. |
| 6 - OUTPUT | Regulated 5.0 V output | Delivers up to 200 mA continuous; requires ≥4.7 µF output capacitor (tantalum recommended) with ESR 0.1–1 Ω for stability. |
| 7 - SHUTDOWN | Enable/disable control | Active-high logic input; drives high (>1.6 V) to enable, low (<0.18 V) to enter sub-2 µA shutdown; slew rate ≥40 mV/µs required. |
| 8 - ERROR | Open-collector reset flag | Asserts low when output drops >5% below 5.0 V; requires external pull-up resistor to host supply for power-on reset signaling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 180 mV @ 200 mA enables operation from single-cell Li-ion (2.7 V min) while maintaining 5.0 V output. |
| Bypass-pin noise reduction | 20 µVRMS output noise (vs. 100 µVRMS for LP2987) allows direct powering of RF front-ends and precision ADCs. |
| Single-capacitor power-on reset | Eliminates discrete RC timer circuits; delay time set precisely via CDELAY (e.g., 100 ms → 0.18 µF). |
| Low ground pin current | 1 mA @ 200 mA load (vs. typical LDOs >5 mA) minimizes wasted power and improves efficiency in portable systems. |
| Integrated protection | Thermal shutdown and current limiting prevent damage during overload or short-circuit conditions without external components. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB?
The LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB has an absolute maximum input voltage of +16 V and a recommended operating range of 2.1 V to +16 V. Exceeding 16 V may cause permanent damage. For reliable operation with 12 V industrial rails, ensure transient suppression is implemented upstream to prevent overvoltage events that breach this limit. The LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB includes internal overvoltage protection on the input pin.
Does LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB require an external capacitor on the Bypass pin?
Yes - the LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB requires a 0.01 µF low-leakage capacitor (NPO/COG ceramic or film) on the BYPASS pin to achieve its specified 20 µVRMS output noise. Omitting this capacitor reverts performance to LP2987-level noise (~100 µVRMS). Leakage must remain below 1 nA over temperature to prevent output voltage drift. The LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB datasheet specifies capacitor dielectric requirements explicitly.
How is the power-on reset delay time calculated for LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB?
The delay time TDELAY (seconds) is calculated using TDELAY = 5.59 × 10⁵ × CDELAY, where CDELAY is in farads. For example, a 0.22 µF capacitor yields ~123 ms delay. The LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB's internal 2.2 µA current source charges CDELAY from 0 V to 1.23 V; maximum recommended CDELAY is 1 µF. This relationship is validated in TI's SNVS004J datasheet Figure 47.
What package type does LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB uses the VSSOP-8 (DGK) package: 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, with exposed thermal pad. It is RoHS-compliant and green (halogen-free), with matte tin (Cu–Sn) lead finish and JEDEC MSL Level-1 rating. The "/NOPB" suffix confirms lead-free compliance per EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. TI's PACKAGE OPTION ADDENDUM confirms this for orderable device LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB.
Can LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB be used with ceramic output capacitors?
Yes, but only with a series resistor. The LP2988IMMX-5.0/NOPB requires 4.7 µF minimum output capacitance with ESR between 0.1 Ω and 1 Ω. Standard ceramic capacitors have ESR <10 mΩ and will cause oscillation. To use ceramics, add a 1 Ω resistor in series with the capacitor - verified in TI Application Note SLVA282. Tantalum remains the preferred choice for stability without added components.
