Product details
Overview
LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a micropower, 150-mA low-dropout CMOS voltage regulator in SC70-5 package, delivering fixed 1.3 V output with 29 µA typical quiescent current, 200 mV dropout at 150 mA (for VOUT < 2.5 V), and ±2 mV line transient response - deployed in battery-powered microcontroller core rails and sensor biasing.
For engineers reviewing the LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB datasheet, LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB pinout, LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB application, or LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include shutdown current (<1 nA), PSRR (–60 dB @ 1 kHz), thermal protection (160°C trip), enable logic thresholds (0.4 V/0.9 V), and stability with 1-µF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB integrates a PMOS pass device with internal reference, bias generator, and overcurrent/thermal protection circuitry. Its architecture enables fast turnon (30 µs typ.) and controlled turnoff via internal FET discharge of the output capacitor.
It operates across –40°C to 125°C junction temperature, supports input voltages from 1.8 V to 5.5 V, and maintains regulation down to 1.3 V output with no-load stability - critical for CMOS RAM keep-alive and ultra-low-power wake-up circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.3 V ±3.5% over –30°C to +125°C - ensures stable core supply for low-voltage MCUs and RF transceivers. |
| Max Output Current | 150 mA continuous - sufficient for single-core ARM Cortex-M0+ or BLE SoC subsystems. |
| Dropout Voltage | 200 mV at 150 mA (VOUT < 2.5 V) - enables operation from single-cell Li-ion (3.0 V min) or two-cell alkaline (2.4 V min) with margin. |
| Quiescent Current | 29 µA typical at no load - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes beyond 5 years on CR2032. |
| PSRR | –60 dB at 1 kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters feeding mixed-signal ICs. |
| Enable Thresholds | VIL = 0.4 V (shutdown), VIH = 0.9 V (enable) - compatible with 1.8 V GPIO without level-shifting. |
| Shutdown Current | <1 nA typical - eliminates standby drain in tamper-detect or security-critical power domains. |
Pinout & Package
LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB is housed in a 2.00 mm × 1.25 mm SC70-5 package with 0.65 mm pitch, optimized for space-constrained wearables and hearing aids.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - IN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 1.8 V–5.5 V; must be ≥1.3 V + VDO (200 mV) for regulation; requires local 1-µF ceramic decoupling ≤1 cm away. |
| 2 - GND | Power ground reference | Low-impedance return path for IN, OUT, and EN; must connect directly to clean analog ground plane to minimize noise coupling. |
| 3 - EN | Logic-enable control input | Active-high; drives regulator ON/OFF; must not float - tie to VIN if always-on; threshold validated from –40°C to 125°C. |
| 4 - NC | No internal connection | Unbonded pad; electrically isolated - must remain unconnected and may be left floating or tied to GND for mechanical stability. |
| 5 - OUT | Regulated output voltage | Delivers 1.3 V ±3.5%; requires 1-µF ceramic capacitor (X7R/X5R) within 1 cm; ESR 3–300 mΩ ensures stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Stable with 1-µF ceramic output capacitor | Eliminates need for large tantalum or electrolytic caps - reduces BOM count and PCB area by >40% vs legacy LDOs. |
| Fast 30-µs turnon time | Enables dynamic power gating in duty-cycled IoT sensors - minimizes wake-up latency without external sequencing. |
| Thermal shutdown with 20°C hysteresis | Auto-recovers after cooling from 160°C trip point - prevents latch-up during short-term overload or poor heatsinking. |
| No-load regulation stability | Maintains 1.3 V output with zero load - essential for memory backup rails and real-time clock (RTC) power domains. |
| Reverse current protection limit | Withstands 50 mA reverse current from VOUT to VIN - avoids external Schottky diode in most single-supply systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-dropout regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPL7407LPGQDQ1 | 7-channel high-side driver with integrated 1.3 V LDO; higher IQ (50 µA); no enable pin; 100 mA per channel. | Designed for automotive LED matrix control - not a standalone regulator; lacks shutdown mode and transient performance specs. | Only suitable when driving discrete loads alongside regulated bias; not drop-in for pure voltage regulation use cases. |
| TPS7A0513PDBVR | 150 mA, 1.3 V fixed-output LDO in SOT-23-5; 25 µA IQ; 170 mV dropout; –40°C to 125°C; requires 2.2 µF min COUT. | Optimized for cost-sensitive consumer electronics; lower dropout but larger minimum output capacitance increases board area. | Preferred where lowest possible dropout is critical and 2.2 µF ceramic cap fits layout; otherwise LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB offers superior transient response and smaller cap requirement. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB?
The absolute maximum input voltage (IN to GND) for LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB is 6.5 V. However, the recommended operating range is 1.8 V to 5.5 V. Exceeding 5.5 V risks permanent damage even briefly, and operation above 5.5 V voids functional guarantees per the datasheet's Absolute Maximum Ratings table.
Does LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB require an external pull-up resistor on the EN pin?
No - LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB does not require an external pull-up on EN. The EN pin has no internal pull-up; if enable functionality is unused, TI explicitly recommends tying EN directly to VIN to ensure reliable turn-on. Leaving EN floating is prohibited and may cause erratic regulation or oscillation.
Can LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB operate with a 0.47 µF output capacitor?
No - LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB requires a minimum output capacitance of 0.7 µF (ensured design limit) per datasheet Section 6.8. A 0.47 µF capacitor falls below this threshold and risks instability, excessive output ripple, or failure to regulate under load transients. Use ≥1 µF X7R ceramic for guaranteed performance.
Is LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes - LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB carries the /NOPB suffix, which TI designates as "No Lead (Pb)-Free" and RoHS-compliant per J-STD-609. It meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is compatible with standard Pb-free reflow profiles up to 260°C peak (10–20 s).
What thermal derating applies to LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB in SC70-5 package at 85°C ambient?
At TA = 85°C, the maximum allowable power dissipation for LP5951MGX-1.3/NOPB in SC70-5 is calculated as PD = (TJ-MAX – TA) / RθJA = (125°C – 85°C) / 276.7°C/W ≈ 144 mW. For a 1.3 V output, this limits usable input-to-output differential to ~0.96 V at 150 mA - confirming need for careful thermal design in enclosed environments.
