LND48XX
400mA Low Dropout Voltage Regulators
TO – 220 Package
DATA
SHEET
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
400mA output within 2% over
temperature
Very low quiescent current
Low dropout voltage (420mV Typ)
Extremely tight load and line regulation
Very low temperature coefficient
Current and thermal limiting
Unregulated DC input can withstand
20V reverse battery and +60V positive
transients
Direct replacement for SGS-Thomson-
L48XX Series, but has lower ground
current, higher accuracy of output
voltage and extremely tight load and
line regulation. The 5 pin version
(adjust model) and 4 pin version (fixed
model) have a shutdown input.
FEATURES
This series of fixed-voltage monolithic
micropower voltage regulators is designed for a
wide range of applications. This device is an
excellent choice for use in battery-powered
application. Furthermore, the quiescent current
increases only slightly at dropout, which
prolongs battery life.
This series of fixed-voltage regulators features
very low quiescent current(100mA Typ.) and
very low drop output voltage (Typ. 60mV at light
load and 420mV at 400mA). This includes a
tight initial tolerance of 0.5%typ. Extremely good
load and line regulation of 0.05% typ., and very
low output temperature coefficient. This series
of fixed-voltage regulators is offered in 3-pin TO-
220 package compatible with other fixed voltage
regulators. Adjust model is offered in 5-pin TO-
220 package and fixed model with shutdown
input is offered in 4-pin TO-220 package.

Note 1: Output or reference voltage temperature coefficients defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total
temperature range.
Note 2: Regulations are measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low duty cycle. Changes in
output voltage due to heating effects are covered under the specification for thermal regulation.
Note 3: Line regulation is tested at 150ºC for IL =5mA. For IL =100µA and TJ =125ºC, line regulation is guaranteed by design to
0.2%. For LND4815 16V<= Vin <=26V.
Note 4: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its nominal
value measured at 1V differential.
Note 5: Group pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the source is the sum of the ground
pin current and output load current.
Note 6: Thermal Regulation is the change in the output voltage at a time T after a change in power dissipation, excluding load
or line regulation effects. Specifications are for a 200mA load pulse (3W pulse) for T=10ms.
Note 7: Vref <=Vout <=(Vin – 1V), 2.3V<=Vin <=26V,100µA <= IL <=400mA, TJ <= Tjmax.
Note 8: Vshutdown >=2V, Vin <=26V, Vout =0v.
