Series Low Dropout Regulators

LM2931 Series Low Dropout Regulators

November 2000

General Description

The LM2931 positive voltage regulator features a very low
quiescent current of 1mA or less when supplying 10mA
loads. This unique characteristic and the extremely low
input-output differential required for proper regulation (0.2V
for output currents of 10mA) make the LM2931 the ideal
regulator for standby power systems. Applications include
memory standby circuits, CMOS and other low power pro­cessor power supplies as well as systems demanding as
much as 100mA of output current.

Designed originally for automotive applications, the LM2931
and all regulated circuitry are protected from reverse battery
installations or 2 battery jumps. During line transients, such
as a load dump (60V) when the input voltage to the regulator
can momentarily exceed the specified maximum operating
voltage, the regulator will automatically shut down to protect
both internal circuits and the load. The LM2931 cannot be
harmed by temporary mirror-image insertion. Familiar regu­lator features such as short circuit and thermal overload
protection are also provided.

The LM2931 family includes a fixed 5V output (
ance for A grade) or an adjustable output with ON/OFF pin.

Typical Applications

*

Required if regulator is located far from power supply filter.

*

*C2 must be at least 100 µF to maintain stability. May be increased without bound to maintain regulation during transients. Locate as close as possible to the
regulator. This capacitor must be rated over the same operating temperature range as the regulator. The equivalent series resistance (ESR) of this capacitor is
critical; see curve.
