LP3981AB5F

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

LP3981AB5F from LOWPOWER, 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 Power supply pin; the recommended supply input voltage is 2.5V to 5.5V.
2 GND power_in Ground pin.
3 EN input Chip enable, active high; the pin is high impedance, so a 100kΩ pull-down resistor to GND is required when the control signal is floating, and EN input voltage is limited to 0V to 5.5V.
4 FB input Feedback pin for the adjustable output; the reference voltage is 0.8V.
5 OUT power_out Regulated output pin.
