Negative Low Dropout Regulator
Click link to Download

Features

  • 5% output accuracy over entire operating range
  • Output current in excess of 1A
  • Dropout voltage typically 0.6V at 1A load
  • Low quiescent current
  • Internal short circuit current limit
  • Internal thermal shutdown with hysteresis
  • Functional complement to the LM2940 series
  • Description

    The LM2990 is a three-terminal, low dropout, 1 ampere negative voltage regulator available with fixed output voltages of −5, −5.2, −12, and −15V.

    The LM2990 uses new circuit design techniques to provide low dropout and low quiescent current. The dropout voltage at 1A load current is typically 0.6V and a guaranteed worst-case maximum of 1V over the entire operating temperature range. The quiescent current is typically 1 mA with 1A load current and an input-output voltage differential greater than 3V. A unique circuit design of the internal bias supply limits the quiescent current to only 9 mA (typical) when the regulator is in the dropout mode (VOUT − VIN 3V). Output voltage accuracy is guaranteed to ±5% over load, and temperature extremes.

    The LM2990 is short-circuit proof, and thermal shutdown includes hysteresis to enhance the reliability of the device when overloaded for an extended period of time. The LM2990 is available in a 3-lead TO-220 package and is rated for operation over the automotive temperature range of −40°C to +125°C.

    Note: The Early Failure Rates (EFR) were calculated as point estimate PPM based on rejects and sample size for EFR. The Long Term Failure Rates were calculated at 60% confidence using the Arrhenius equation at 0.7eV activation energy and derating the assumed stress temperature of 150°C to an application temperature of 55°C.
