3 Description
The LP2992 is a 250-mA, fixed-output voltage
regulator designed to provide ultra-low dropout and
low noise in battery-powered applications.
Using an optimized vertically integrated PNP (VIP)
process, the LP2992 delivers unequaled performance
in all specifications critical to battery-powered
designs:
• Dropout voltage: Typically 450 mV at 250-mA
load, and 5 mV at 1-mA load.
• Ground pin current: Typically 1500 µA at 250-mA
load, and 75 µA at 1-mA load.
• Enhanced stability: The LP2992 is stable with
output capacitor equivalent series resistance
(ESR) as low as 5 mΩ, which allows the use of
ceramic capacitors on the output.
• Sleep mode: Less than 1-µA quiescent current
when ON/OFF pin is pulled low.
• Smallest possible size: SOT-23 and WSON
packages use absolute minimum board space.
• Precision output: 1% tolerance output voltages
available (A grade).
• Low noise: By adding a 10-nF bypass capacitor,
output noise can be reduced to 30 µV (typical).
• Multiple voltage options, from 1.5 V to 5 V, are
available as standard products. Consult factory for
custom voltages.

DESCRIPTION
Bypass capacitor for low-noise operation.
Ground.
Unregulated input voltage.
No internal connection. Connect to GND or leave open.
A low voltage on this pin disables the device, and the regulator enters
a sleep mode. A high voltage on this pin enables the device.
Regulated output voltage. This pin requires an output capacitor to
maintain stability. See the
Detailed Design Procedure
for output
capacitor details.
The exposed die attach pad on the bottom of the package must be
connected to a copper thermal pad on the PCB at ground potential.
Connect to ground potential or leave floating. Do not connect to any
potential other than the same ground potential seen at device pin 2.

Stresses beyond those listed under
Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under
Recommended
Operating Conditions.
Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
If Military- or Aerospace-specified devices are required, contact the Texas Instruments Sales Office/Distributors for availability and
specifications.
The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, T
J(MAX)
, the junction-to-ambient thermal
resistance, R
θJA
, and the ambient temperature, T
A
. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated
using:
P
(MAX)
= (T
J(MAX)
– T
A
) / R
θJA
Where the value of R
θJA
for the SOT-23 package is 169.7°C/W in a typical PC board mounting and the WSON package is 72.3°C/W.
Exceeding the maximum allowable dissipation causes excessive die temperature, and the regulator goes into thermal shutdown.
If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the LP2992 output must be diode-clamped to
ground.
The output PNP structure contains a diode between the IN to OUT pins that is normally reverse-biased. Reversing the polarity from V
IN
to V
OUT
turns on this diode.
