LP2981AIM5X-3.0

Texas Instruments · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-23-5

LP2981AIM5X-3.0 from Texas Instruments, in a SOT-23-5. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 IN power_in Input supply pin; use a capacitor of 1µF or larger from this pin to ground.
2 GND power_in Common ground (device substrate).
3 ON/OFF input Enable pin: driving it high enables the LDO and driving it low disables it; tie to VIN if unused.
4 NC unconnected Do not connect; reserved for post-packaging VOUT calibration, must be left floating and not tied to any potential or ground.
5 OUT power_out Regulator output; use a capacitor of 2.2µF or larger from this pin to ground, with nominal output capacitance greater than 1µF after derating.
