Product details
Overview
LP5996SD-1018/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a dual low-dropout linear regulator IC with independent 300mA and 150mA outputs, fixed 1.0V and 1.8V output voltages, ±1.5% room-temperature accuracy, ultra-low 35µA quiescent current (enabled), and stable operation with 1µF ceramic output capacitors. It serves as a compact, low-noise power management solution for portable RF and digital baseband subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the LP5996SD-1018/NOPB datasheet, LP5996SD-1018/NOPB pinout, LP5996SD-1018/NOPB application, or LP5996SD-1018/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include independent enable control per LDO, thermal shutdown protection, 2.0V–6.0V input range, dropout voltage of 210mV at 300mA, and compatibility with small-footprint 3mm × 3mm WSON packaging.
Technical Context
The LP5996SD-1018/NOPB integrates two independent LDO regulators on a single die: LDO2 delivers up to 300mA at 1.8V with 210mV dropout at full load, while LDO1 supplies up to 150mA at 1.0V with 220mV dropout. Each features active-high enable pins (EN1/EN2) supporting zero-current shutdown (<10nA IQ).
Its internal voltage reference is bypassed via CBYP pin with a 10nF capacitor to reduce output noise (75µVRMS at 3.3V) and improve PSRR (70dB at 1kHz for LDO2). The device operates across −40°C to +85°C ambient and includes thermal shutdown at 160°C with 20°C hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltages | 1.0V (LDO1) and 1.8V (LDO2), fixed and non-adjustable - enables direct powering of core logic and I/O rails without external feedback components. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA (LDO1), 300mA (LDO2) - supports simultaneous supply of low-power microcontrollers and RF transceivers in space-constrained designs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.0V to 6.0V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, Li-polymer, or multi-cell alkaline/battery sources without pre-regulation. |
| Quiescent Current | 35µA (both LDOs enabled), <10nA (both disabled) - extends battery life in always-on or sleep-mode applications such as IoT sensors. |
| Dropout Voltage | 210mV at 300mA (LDO2), 220mV at 150mA (LDO1) - allows regulation down to ~1.2V input for 1.0V output, maximizing usable battery voltage range. |
| Accuracy | ±1.5% at 25°C, ±3% over −40°C to +125°C junction - ensures reliable voltage margining for 1.0V core and 1.8V I/O domains in portable electronics. |
| PSRR | 70dB at 1kHz (LDO2), 58dB at 1kHz (LDO1) with CBYP = 10nF - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters feeding the LDO inputs. |
Pinout & Package
LP5996SD-1018/NOPB uses a 10-pin WSON (SON-10) package, 3mm × 3mm body with exposed thermal pad (DSC package drawing), RoHS-compliant and lead-free (Green, CU SN finish), moisture sensitivity level 1 (260°C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 2.0V–6.0V; requires 1µF ceramic capacitor to GND within 1cm for stability and transient response. |
| EN1 | Enable input for LDO1 (1.0V) | Active-high logic; VIH = 0.95V min, VIL = 0.4V max - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO; ties to VIN for permanent enable. |
| EN2 | Enable input for LDO2 (1.8V) | Independent active-high control; allows staggered power-up or dynamic rail gating in multi-voltage systems. |
| CBYP | Internal reference bypass | Connects to 10nF NPO/COG capacitor to GND; reduces output noise and improves PSRR/line transient performance. |
| GND | Ground reference (Pin 6) | Common return for both LDOs; must be connected to exposed thermal pad for thermal and electrical integrity. |
| VOUT2 | LDO2 output (1.8V, 300mA) | Delivers regulated 1.8V; requires 1µF ceramic capacitor to GND; ESR 5–500mΩ ensures stability. |
| VOUT1 | LDO1 output (1.0V, 150mA) | Delivers regulated 1.0V; same capacitor requirements as VOUT2; supports low-voltage core logic rails. |
| N/C (Pins 5,7,8) | No connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no PCB trace or solder mask opening required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Independent dual-LDO architecture | Enables selective power gating: LDO1 (1.0V/150mA) for processor cores, LDO2 (1.8V/300mA) for memory/I/O, reducing system standby current. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 35µA total when both LDOs are active - minimizes battery drain in always-on wireless sensor nodes and wearables. |
| Ceramic-capacitor stability | Stable with ≥1µF X7R/X5R ceramic output caps (ESR 5–500mΩ); eliminates need for larger, costlier tantalum or electrolytic capacitors. |
| Thermal shutdown protection | Triggers at 160°C junction temperature with 20°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
| Low-noise reference bypass | CBYP pin with 10nF capacitor reduces integrated output noise to 75µVRMS (3.3V output), critical for RF PLL and ADC reference supplies. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPL7407LPGEDR | Single 7-channel high-side driver (not LDO); 40V max, 600mA per channel; no voltage regulation capability. | Designed for relay/LED load switching, not power regulation - incompatible function. | Select only if driving discrete loads; not a functional alternative to LP5996SD-1018/NOPB. |
| TPS799185DRVR | Single 1.85V LDO, 200mA, 1.5% accuracy, 25µA IQ, 5-pin SOT-23 - lacks second output and independent enable. | Suitable only for single-rail 1.85V applications; cannot replace dual-rail 1.0V/1.8V configuration without redesign. | Use where only one regulated rail is needed; requires additional regulator for 1.0V core supply. |
Compared with TPL7407LPGEDR (non-regulator) and TPS799185DRVR (single-output), LP5996SD-1018/NOPB uniquely provides two independently enabled, fixed-voltage LDOs in one 3mm × 3mm package - essential for space-constrained dual-rail systems requiring coordinated power sequencing and ultra-low shutdown current.

FAQ
What are the fixed output voltages of the LP5996SD-1018/NOPB?
The LP5996SD-1018/NOPB provides two fixed output voltages: 1.0V on VOUT1 (LDO1, rated for 150mA) and 1.8V on VOUT2 (LDO2, rated for 300mA). These values are laser-trimmed at wafer test and cannot be adjusted externally - confirmed by TI's LP5996 datasheet revision C and package addendum.
Does the LP5996SD-1018/NOPB require external capacitors, and what are the minimum values?
Yes, the LP5996SD-1018/NOPB requires an input capacitor (≥1µF ceramic), two output capacitors (≥1µF each on VOUT1 and VOUT2), and an optional 10nF ceramic capacitor on CBYP for optimal noise and PSRR performance. All ceramic capacitors must have ESR between 5mΩ and 500mΩ and use X7R/X5R dielectrics for temperature stability - per Electrical Characteristics and Application Hints sections of the official datasheet.
How does the enable functionality work on the LP5996SD-1018/NOPB?
The LP5996SD-1018/NOPB features two independent active-high enable inputs: EN1 controls LDO1 (1.0V), and EN2 controls LDO2 (1.8V). A logic high ≥0.95V enables the respective LDO; a logic low ≤0.4V disables it, reducing quiescent current to <10nA. Both pins tolerate up to VIN + 0.3V and must be driven by compatible GPIOs - verified in Pin Descriptions and Enable Control sections of SNVS415C.
What thermal protection features does the LP5996SD-1018/NOPB include?
The LP5996SD-1018/NOPB incorporates internal thermal shutdown that activates at 160°C junction temperature with 20°C hysteresis, preventing permanent damage during overload or inadequate heatsinking. This protection is independent of output loading and remains active across the full −40°C to +125°C junction operating range - specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings and Thermal Properties tables of the datasheet.
Is the LP5996SD-1018/NOPB compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
Yes, the LP5996SD-1018/NOPB is RoHS-compliant and qualified for lead-free reflow with a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of 1 and peak reflow temperature of 260°C - confirmed by TI's Package Option Addendum (23-Sep-2013), which lists "Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br)" eco plan and "CU SN" lead finish for this orderable device.
