LM2926/LM2927
Low Dropout Regulator with Delayed Reset
LM2926/LM2927 Low Dropout Regulator with Delayed Reset
April 1998
General Description
The LM2926 is a 5V,500mA,lowdropoutregulatorwithdelayed reset. The microprocessorresetflagis set low by thermal shutdown, short circuits, overvoltage conditions, dropout, and power-up. After the fault condition is corrected, the
reset flag remains low for a delay time determined by the delay capacitor. Hysteresis is included in the reset circuit to
prevent oscillations, and a reset output is guaranteed down
to 3.2V supply input. A latching comparator is used to discharge the delay capacitor, which guarantees a full reset
pulse even when triggered by a relatively short fault condition. A patented quiescent current reduction circuit drops the
ground pin current to 8 mA at full load when the input-output
differential is 3V or more.
Familiar PNP regulator features such as reverse battery protection, transient protection, and overvoltage shutdown are
included in the LM2926 making it suitable for use in automotive and battery operated equipment.
The LM2927 is electrically identical to the LM2926 but has a
different pin-out. The LM2927 is pin-for-pin compatible with
the L4947 and TLE4260 alternatives. The LM2926 is
pin-for-pin compatible with the LM2925.

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 do not guarantee specific performance limits.
