Product details
Overview
LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB from Texas Instruments (formerly National Semiconductor) is a highly integrated cellular/PCS handset power management IC containing five LDO regulators, a reset timer, power-up control logic, an open-drain LED driver, and a rail-to-rail op-amp. It delivers 150 mA (LDO1/LDO4), 200 mA (LDO2/LDO5), and 100 mA (LDO3) with 100 mV typical dropout at full load, operates from 3.0 V to 5.5 V input, and targets single-cell Li⁺ portable systems requiring intelligent sequencing and backlight control.
For engineers reviewing the LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB datasheet, LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB pinout, LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB application, or LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB equivalent, key selection considerations include factory-programmed output voltages (1.85 V / 3.00 V / 3.00 V / 3.00 V / 3.00 V), 28-pin LLP thermal package, LDO enable independence, LED current programmability up to 150 mA, and integrated op-amp with 600 kHz GBW and rail-to-rail I/O.
Technical Context
The LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB implements hierarchical power sequencing: KYBD or VEXT assertion enables LDO1 first, followed by LDO2 after 125 µs (standard delay), triggering RST after 20 ms once both reach 95% of target voltage. PS_HOLD timing (500 ms max hold-up) governs system-level power state transitions and shutdown initiation.
Its five LDOs are partitioned across three input rails (VDD1/VDD2/VDD3 tied externally), each optimized for low noise (27 µVrms) and high PSRR (45 dB @ 100 Hz), with independent enable pins for LDO3–LDO5 and shared KYBD/VEXT control for LDO1/LDO2. The integrated op-amp features 0.5 mA supply current, 0.7 V/µs slew rate, and 1.2 mV input offset - all specified over −40°C to +85°C.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
The LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB is housed in a 28-pin Leadless Leadframe Package (LLP) measuring 5 mm × 5 mm × 0.75 mm with an exposed die attach pad for enhanced thermal dissipation. Thermal performance requires PCB-level implementation of a 1:1 thermal land and ≥4 thermal vias connected to ground.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VO1 | LDO1 output | 150 mA regulated output at 1.85 V (factory-programmed for AZ variant); powers keyboard controller or low-voltage logic. |
| EN5, EN4, EN3 | Independent LDO enable inputs | Digital control lines allowing selective activation of LDO5 (3.00 V), LDO4 (3.00 V), and LDO3 (3.00 V) - enables dynamic power gating. |
| RST | Open-drain reset output | Active-low signal with 20 ms delay after LDO2 stabilization - synchronizes microprocessor exit from reset with stable power rails. |
| IRQ | Open-drain interrupt output | Asserted on KYBD debounce (>32 ms); signals processor that power-on sequence has initiated or keyboard event occurred. |
| PS_HOLD | Processor-supplied power-hold input | High-valid signal indicating system stability; must go high within 500 ms of RST to prevent automatic shutdown. |
| KYBD | Keyboard "On/Off" input | Active-high trigger for primary power-up sequence; initiates LDO1 enable and IRQ assertion. |
| VEXT | External charger detect input | Active-low signal indicating battery charger insertion; triggers alternate power-up path or maintains LDO operation during charging. |
| LED_EN | LED driver enable | Controls 150 mA open-drain sink (LED pin); high = active; used for backlight on/off sequencing synchronized with display enable. |
| LED_PGM | LED current programming | Connects external resistor (e.g., 130 kΩ for 150 mA) to set precise backlight current - eliminates need for external current-sense amplifier. |
| OP_AMP_OUT / IN+ / IN− / OP_AMP_VDD | Integrated op-amp interface | Rail-to-rail I/O amplifier powered from dedicated 3.0–5.5 V supply; used for battery voltage scaling, temperature sensing, or DAC buffering. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power management IC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC7705QPWRQ1 | Single 5 V LDO with reset supervisor only; no LED driver, op-amp, or multi-LDO integration. | Suitable for basic reset generation in automotive body controllers, not for handset PMIC replacement. | Select only if system requires only reset supervision and a single LDO - lacks sequencing, backlight, and analog functions of LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB. |
| TPS65132A1YFFR | Three-output PMIC (dual LDO + boost) with I²C interface; no integrated op-amp or programmable LED sink. | Targeted at LCD bias supply in portable displays; lacks KYBD/VEXT sequencing logic and PS_HOLD protocol. | Choose for I²C-configurable dual-rail systems needing boost capability; not drop-in for LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB's hardware-sequenced, standalone architecture. |
Compared with TLC7705QPWRQ1 and TPS65132A1YFFR, the LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB uniquely integrates five factory-programmed LDOs, hardware-based power sequencing, 150 mA LED driver, and rail-to-rail op-amp in a single 28-pin LLP - making it irreplaceable for legacy cellular handset designs requiring minimal external components and deterministic timing.

FAQ
What output voltages are factory-programmed for LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB?
The LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB is configured with VO1 = 1.85 V, VO2 = 3.00 V, VO3 = 3.00 V, VO4 = 3.00 V, and VO5 = 3.00 V per National Semiconductor's ordering table. These values are laser-trimmed during wafer sort and cannot be modified in-circuit. The LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB does not support dynamic voltage scaling or I²C reconfiguration - all outputs are fixed at power-on.
How does the LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB handle power-down sequencing?
When PS_HOLD goes low, the LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB asserts RST after a brief delay, disables LDO2 after 20 ms, then disables LDO1 after 125 µs (standard delay). LDO3–LDO5 remain enabled until their respective EN pins are deasserted externally. This reverse-ordered shutdown prevents brownout in downstream circuits and ensures orderly processor reset before rail collapse.
Can the integrated op-amp in LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB drive capacitive loads?
The LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB op-amp is specified for RLOAD > 1 MΩ and is not characterized for direct capacitive loading. Driving >100 pF requires external isolation (e.g., series resistor) to avoid instability. For battery voltage monitoring, use a 100 kΩ/100 kΩ resistive divider into the op-amp's IN+ pin - the LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB's 1 GΩ input resistance ensures negligible loading error.
What is the maximum allowable LED current and how is it set on LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB?
The LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB supports up to 150 mA LED current, set by an external resistor on LED_PGM. With a 130 kΩ resistor, ILED = 150 mA (±15 mA over temperature). Lower resistance increases current linearly (e.g., 65 kΩ ≈ 300 mA), but exceeds absolute maximum ratings - the LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB's internal FET limits safe operation to 150 mA.
Is LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB pin-compatible with other variants in the LP3927 family?
Yes - all LP3927 variants (e.g., LP3927ILQX-AH, LP3927ILQX-AP) share identical 28-pin LLP pinout and footprint. Voltage options and LDO delay configuration differ per top marking, but electrical connections, thermal pad layout, and enable/control signal assignments are fully consistent across the family. PCBs designed for LP3927ILQX-AZ/NOPB support drop-in replacement with other LP3927 variants.
