LP5952
350mA Dual Rail Linear Regulator
General Description
Features
The LP5952 is a Dual Supply Rail Linear Regulator optimized
for powering ultra-low voltage circuits from a single Li-Ion cell
or 3 cell NiMH/NiCd batteries.
Excellent load transient response: ±15mV typical

Excellent line transient response: ±1mV typical
0.7V ≤ VIN ≤ 4.5V
In the typical post regulation application VBATT is directly con-
nected to the battery (range 2.5V...5.5V) and VIN is supplied
by the output voltage of the DC-DC Converter (range 0.7V...
4.5V).
2.5V ≤ VBATT ≤ 5.5V
0.5V ≤ VOUT ≤ 2.0V
For ILOAD = 350mA:
VBATT ≥ VOUT(NOM) + 1.5V or 2.5V whichever is higher
For ILOAD = 150mA:
The device offers superior dropout and transient features
combined with very low quiescent currents. In shutdown
mode (Enable pin pulled low) the device turns off and reduces
battery consumption to 0.1µA (typ.).

VBATT ≥ VOUT(NOM) + 1.3V or 2.5V whichever is higher
50µA typical quiescent current from VBATT
10µA typical quiescent current from VIN
0.1µA typical quiescent current in shutdown
Guaranteed 350mA output current

The LP5952 also features internal protection against over-
temperature, over-current and under-voltage conditions.
Performance is specified for a -40°C to 125°C junction tem-
perature range.
Noise voltage = 100µVRMS typical
The device is available in a tiny 5-bump micro SMD and a 6-
pin Chip On Lead LLP package, lead free.
Operates from a single Li-Ion cell or 3 cell NiMH/NiCd
batteries
The device is available in fixed output voltages in the range
of 0.5V to 2.0V. For availability, please contact your local NSC
sales office.
Only one or two tiny surface-mount external components
required depending on application
