The LP2987IMX-3.0 is a high-quality, low-dropout regulator (LDO) from Texas Instruments, designed to deliver a well-regulated 3.0V output from a higher voltage input. This device is particularly suitable for battery-powered systems, and it offers a combination of low quiescent current and low dropout voltage, making it an ideal choice for maintaining extended battery life in portable applications.

Key Features

• Output Voltage: Fixed 3.0V with high accuracy over temperature (±1%).
• Dropout Voltage: Low dropout performance, typically 280 mV at full-rated load current of 200 mA, ensures efficiency and allows operation over a wider input voltage range.
• Current Rating: Capable of delivering up to 200 mA of continuous output current.
• Quiescent Current: Ultra-low quiescent current, which is critical for battery-operated devices, enhances battery life.
• Thermal Performance: Excellent thermal behavior and stability under a wide range of operating conditions and load variations.
• Package: Available in the space-saving 8-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package, making it suitable for compact designs.
• Protection Features: Includes built-in protection mechanisms such as over-current protection, thermal shutdown, and reverse battery protection to ensure the longevity and reliability of both the LDO and the system it is used in.

Applications

The LP2987IMX-3.0 is versatile and can be used in a wide range of applications, including:

• Mobile phones and PDAs
