LM2925
Low Dropout Regulator with Delayed Reset
General Description
The LM2925 features a low dropout, high current regulator.
Also included on-chip is a reset function with an externally
set delay time. Upon power up, or after the detection of any
error in the regulated output, the reset pin remains in the active low state for thedurationofthedelay. Typesoferrors detected include any that cause the output to become unregulated: low input voltage, thermal shutdown, short circuit,
input transients, etc. No external pull-up resistor is necessary.The current charging the delay capacitor is very low, allowing long delay times.
Designed primarily for automotive applications, the LM2925
and all regulated circuitry are protected from reverse battery
installations or two-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 0.75A regulator will automatically shut
down to protect both internal circuits and the load. The
Typical Application Circuit
LM2925 cannot be harmed by temporary mirror-image insertion. Familiar regulator features such as short circuit and
thermal overload protection are also provided.

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.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Electrical specifications do not apply when operating the device
beyond its rated operating Conditions.
Note 2: Thermal resistance without a heat sink for junction to case temperature is 3˚C/W (TO-220). Thermal resistance for TO-220 case to ambient temperature is
50˚C/W.
Note 3: These parameters are guaranteed and 100%production tested.
Note 4: To ensure constant junction temperature, low duty cycle pulse testing is used.
