LP2951CMX

Texas Instruments · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOIC-8

LP2951CMX from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 OUT output Regulated output voltage programmable or fixed from 1.24V to 29V with ±0.5% typical accuracy and ensured 100-mA maximum output current capability.
2 SENSE input Output voltage sense input connected to OUT in fixed-voltage configuration to detect actual output voltage for accurate regulation.
3 SHUTDOWN input Active-high logic shutdown input; voltage ≥2V disables regulator reducing quiescent current to 3µA typical, voltage ≤0.6V enables regulator operation.
4 GND power_in Ground reference connection and substrate connection point; for SOIC package, connect exposed thermal pad to ground.
5 ERROR output Open-collector error comparator output sinking up to 400µA that goes low when regulated output voltage falls more than approximately 5% below nominal programmed value.
6 VTAP output Internal resistor divider tap providing nominal 1.235-V reference voltage (1.22-1.25V at 25°C, 1.2-1.26V over temperature) for feedback circuit biasing.
7 FEEDBACK input Feedback input voltage for error amplifier with maximum ±40-nA bias current; tie to VTAP for fixed voltage or to external resistor divider for 1.24-29V programmable output.
8 IN power_in Input supply voltage connection accepting 2.3V to 30V range with minimum 1-µF input capacitor recommended for loop stability if wire length exceeds 10 inches.
