The LP3995ITLX-1.5/NOPB is a low-dropout (LDO) linear voltage regulator from Texas Instruments, designed to deliver a fixed output of 1.5V with an input voltage range from 2.5V to 6V. This high-performance regulator is ideal for space-constrained and noise-sensitive applications due to its miniature package size and low noise output.

Key Features

• Output Voltage: Fixed 1.5V with excellent regulation.
• High Accuracy: Output voltage accuracy is maintained within ±1.5% over line, load, and temperature variations.
• Low Dropout: Capable of providing a stable output with a very low dropout voltage, making it suitable for battery-powered devices.
• Current Capacity: It can supply up to 150mA of load current, which is adequate for a variety of low-power applications.
• Low Quiescent Current: The device consumes a minimal amount of quiescent current, thereby increasing battery life in portable applications.
• Thermal Shutdown and Overcurrent Protection: Built-in safety features ensure device protection under abnormal operating conditions.
• Stable with Low-ESR Capacitors: The regulator is stable with ceramic capacitors as low as 1µF, which reduces board space and component costs.

Applications

The LP3995ITLX-1.5/NOPB is suitable for a broad range of applications, particularly where space and power efficiency are critical. These include but are not limited to:

• Mobile phones and PDAs
• Portable media players
• Wireless LAN and Bluetooth® devices
• Handheld instrumentation
• GPS receivers

Package and Quality

Encased in a tiny 5-pin SOT-23 package, the LP3995ITLX-1.5/NOPB is designed for surface-mount technology, which allows for compact PCB design. The "NOPB" designation indicates that the product is part of Texas Instruments' eco-friendly portfolio, which means it is lead-free and RoHS compliant. This commitment to environmental standards ensures that the device is suitable for use in a wide range of markets and applications that require adherence to strict environmental regulations.
