LP3853/LP3856
3A Fast Response Ultra Low Dropout Linear Regulators
LP3853/LP3856 3A Fast Ultra Low Dropout Linear Regulators
March 2004
General Description
The LP3853/LP3856 series of fast ultra low-dropout linear
regulators operate from a +2.5V to +7.0V input supply. Wide
range of preset output voltage options are available. These
ultra low dropout linear regulators respond very quickly to
step changes in load, which makes them suitable for low
voltage microprocessor applications. The LP3853/LP3856
are developed on a CMOS process which allows low quiescent current operation independent of output load current.
This CMOS process also allows the LP3853/LP3856 to operate under extremely low dropout conditions.
Dropout Voltage: Ultra low dropout voltage; typically 39mV
at 300mA load current and 390mV at 3A load current.
Ground Pin Current: Typically 4mA at 3A load current.
Shutdown Mode: Typically 10nA quiescent current when
the shutdown pin is pulled low.
Error Flag: Error flag goes low when the output voltage
drops 10% below nominal value.
SENSE: Sense pin improves regulation at remote loads.
Precision Output Voltage: Multiple output voltage options
are available ranging from 1.8V to 5.0V with a guaranteed
accuracy of
conditions (varying line, load, and temperature).

Note 1: Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Operating ratings indicate conditions for which the device is
intended to be functional, but does not guarantee specific performance limits. For guaranteed specifications and test conditions, see Electrical Characteristics. The
guaranteed specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed
test conditions.
Note 2: At elevated temperatures, devices must be derated based on package thermal resistance. The devices in TO220 package must be derated at θ
(with 0.5in
0.5in
Note 3: The human body model is a 100pF capacitor discharged through a 1.5kΩ resistor into each pin.
Note 4: Typical numbers are at 25˚C and represent the most likely parametric norm.
Note 5: Limits are guaranteed by testing, design, or statistical correlation.
Note 6: If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output must be diode-clamped to ground.
Note 7: The output PMOS structure contains a diode between the V
if the voltage at the output terminal is forced to be higher than the voltage at the input terminal. This diode can typically withstand 200mA of DC current and 1Amp
of peak current.
Note 8: Output voltage line regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in the input line voltage. Output voltage load
regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in load current. The line and load regulation specification contains only
the typical number. However, the limits for line and load regulation are included in the output voltage tolerance specification.
Note 9: Error Flag threshold and hysteresis are specified as percentage of regulated output voltage. See Application Hints.
Note 10: Dropout voltage is defined as the minimum input to output differential voltage at which the output drops 2% below the nominal value. Dropout voltage
specification applies only to output voltages of 2.5V and above. For output voltages below 2.5V, the drop-out voltage is nothing but the input to output differential,
since the minimum input voltage is 2.5V.
