Product details
Overview
LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 150-mA ultra-low-noise LDO regulator designed for RF and analog circuits, delivering 2.6 V output with ±2% tolerance, 80 mV typical dropout, 6.5 μVRMS output noise, and 75 dB PSRR at 1 kHz. It operates from 2.5 V to 5.5 V input and supports stable regulation with only 0.47-μF ceramic input/output capacitors-no noise bypass capacitor required.
For engineers reviewing the LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB datasheet, LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB pinout, LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB application, or LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include low-noise power delivery for sensitive RF front-ends, minimal external component count in space-constrained portable designs, thermal performance under 150-mA load, and enable-controlled power sequencing in battery-powered systems.
Technical Context
The LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB employs an innovative internal RC-filtered reference architecture that suppresses bandgap noise before amplification, eliminating the need for an external noise-bypass capacitor. Its low-quiescent-current design (25 μA enabled, <1 μA disabled) integrates a 1-MΩ internal pull-down on the EN pin for fail-safe shutdown.
Stability is guaranteed with 0.47-μF ±30% X7R/X5R ceramic capacitors on both IN and OUT pins, with ESR between 5 mΩ and 500 mΩ. The device features thermal shutdown at 160°C with 20°C hysteresis and short-circuit current limiting at 300 mA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.6 V ±2% - ensures precise biasing for RF ICs and ADC references without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 150 mA - sufficient for powering RF transceivers, PLLs, or low-power analog signal chains. |
| Dropout Voltage | 80 mV typ. at 150 mA - enables operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0 V min) while maintaining regulation down to 2.68 V input. |
| Output Noise | 6.5 μVRMS (10 Hz–100 kHz) - minimizes phase noise in VCOs and jitter in clock buffers. |
| PSRR | 75 dB at 1 kHz - rejects switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters feeding the LDO input. |
| Quiescent Current | 25 μA (enabled), <1 μA (disabled) - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes and standby modes. |
| Enable Thresholds | VIL ≤ 0.4 V, VIH ≥ 1.2 V - compatible with 1.8-V and 3.3-V logic without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB is packaged in a 4-pin DSBGA (YZR) with 1.108 mm × 1.083 mm body size and an exposed thermal pad on the bottom. The package requires connection of the thermal pad to PCB ground via thermal vias for optimal thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (A2) | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2.5–5.5 V; must be decoupled with 0.47-μF ceramic capacitor within 1 cm of pin. |
| OUT (B2) | Regulated output | Delivers fixed 2.6 V; requires 0.47-μF ceramic capacitor with 5–500 mΩ ESR for stability. |
| GND (B1) | Power ground reference | Common return path for input, output, and internal circuitry; connects to thermal pad potential. |
| EN (A1) | Logic-controlled enable | Active-high input with 1-MΩ internal pull-down; drives high (>1.2 V) to enable, low (<0.4 V) to disable. |
| Thermal Pad | Thermal conduction path | Exposed copper pad on package underside; must be soldered to PCB ground plane with ≥4 thermal vias for RθJB = 35.6°C/W. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external noise bypass capacitor | Internal RC-filtered reference eliminates need for dedicated 10-nF bypass cap-reduces BOM count and board area. |
| Ultra-low output noise | 6.5 μVRMS enables clean power for RF synthesizers and high-resolution ADCs without post-regulation filtering. |
| Stable with minimal capacitance | Guaranteed stability with 0.47-μF ceramic caps (X7R/X5R) - avoids costly tantalum or large MLCCs. |
| Low dropout & high PSRR | 80-mV dropout + 75-dB PSRR at 1 kHz allows co-location with noisy DC/DC converters in compact RF modules. |
| Thermal and short-circuit protection | 160°C thermal shutdown with 20°C hysteresis and 300-mA short-circuit limit ensure robustness in field-deployed devices. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPL720F12-DBVR | Fixed 1.2 V output, 200-mA rating, 50 μVRMS noise, requires 1-μF output cap | Not suitable for 2.6 V rail; higher noise limits use in RF/analog circuits | Select only if target voltage is 1.2 V and noise budget permits >7× increase over LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB |
| MCP1700-2602E/TO | 2.6 V output, 250-mA rating, 30 μVRMS noise, 6-μF min output cap, SOT-23-3 package | Larger footprint, higher noise, and larger capacitor requirement reduce suitability for space-constrained RF layouts | Consider only when DSBGA assembly is unavailable and 30-μV noise is acceptable for non-RF analog loads |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB to regulate at 2.6 V?
The LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB requires a minimum input voltage of 2.5 V to power internal circuitry, but full regulation at 2.6 V demands VIN ≥ VOUT + VDO. With 80 mV typical dropout, LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB maintains regulation down to 2.68 V input at 150 mA. Below this, output voltage drops linearly with input.
Can LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB operate without an output capacitor?
No. LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB requires a minimum 0.47-μF ceramic output capacitor with ESR between 5 mΩ and 500 mΩ for stability. Operation without COUT risks oscillation and loss of regulation. The datasheet explicitly states stability is guaranteed only with ≥0.47-μF X7R/X5R ceramics.
Does LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB require a noise bypass capacitor?
No. LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB uses an internal first-order RC filter on its reference voltage to suppress noise, eliminating the need for an external 10-nF noise bypass capacitor. This reduces component count and PCB area-confirmed in the device description, features list, and simplified schematic.
What is the thermal pad connection requirement for LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB?
The exposed thermal pad on LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB must be soldered to a PCB ground plane using ≥4 thermal vias. TI specifies connecting the pad to the same ground potential as pin 3 (GND); floating or connecting to other potentials violates thermal and electrical specifications and may cause instability or damage.
How does the enable pin of LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB behave when left unconnected?
LP5900TLX-2.6/NOPB has a 1-MΩ internal pull-down resistor on the EN pin (pin A1). When left unconnected, EN is pulled to GND (<0.4 V), placing the device in disabled state with <1 μA quiescent current. To enable, an external logic signal ≥1.2 V must drive the pin-no external pull-up is needed.
