3 Description

Operating from a minimum input voltage of 1.65 V,

the LP3991 LDO has been designed to provide fixed

stable output voltages for load currents up to 300 mA.

This device is suitable where accurate low voltages

are required from low input voltage sources and is

therefore suitable for post regulation of switched

mode regulators. In such applications, significant

improvements in performance and EMI can be

realized, with little reduction in overall efficiency. The

LP3991 provides fixed outputs as low as 1.2 V from a

wide input range from 1.65 V to 4 V Using the enable

(EN) pin, the device may be controlled to provide a

shutdown state, in which negligible supply current is

drawn.

The LP3991 is designed to be stable with space-

saving ceramic capacitors as small as 0402 case

size.

Performance is specified for a –40°C to +125°C

junction temperature range. For output voltage

options, contact your local Texas Instruments sales

office.

7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview

The LP3991 device is a monolithic integrated low-dropout voltage regulator with a low input operating voltage

tolerance. Key protection circuits, including output current limitation and thermal shutdown, are integrated in the

device. Using the EN pin, the device may be controlled to provide a shutdown state, in which negligible supply

current is drawn. The LP3991 is designed to be stable with space-saving ceramic capacitors as small as 0402

case size.

7.2 Functional Block Diagram

7.3 Feature Description

7.3.1 Post-Buck Regulator

Linear post-regulation can be an effective way to reduce ripple and switching noise from DC-DC convertors while

still maintaining a reasonably high overall efficiency.

The LP3991 is particularly suitable for this role due to its low input voltage requirements. In addition, there is

often no need for a separate input capacitor for the LP3991 as it can share the output cap of the DC-DC

convertor.

Care of PCB layouts involving switching regulators is paramount. In particular, the ground paths for the LDO

must be routed separately from the switcher ground and star connected close to the battery. Routing of the

switch pin of the DC-DC convertor must be kept short to minimize radiated EMI. A low pass filter such as a ferrite

bead or common mode choke on the battery input leads can further reduce radiated EMI.

Figure 19 shows a typical example using an LM3673, 350-mA DC-DC buck regulator with a nominal output of

1.8 V and a 1.5-V LP3991 device. The overall efficiency is greater than 70% over the full Li-Ion battery voltage

range. Maximum efficiency is achieved by minimizing the difference between VIN and VOUT of the LP3991 device.

The LP3991-1.5 remains in regulation down to an input voltage of 1.65 V; thus, in this case, a 1.8-V buck with

5% tolerance is adequate for all conditions of temperature and load.

Feature Description (continued)

7.3.2 Maximum Supply Voltage and Thermal Considerations

Maximum recommended input voltage is 3.6 V. The device may be operated at 4-V VIN if proper care is given to

the board design in regard to thermal dissipation. As a guide, refer to Table 1 for ambient temperature at two

input voltages and two load currents for the example board types.

7.4 Device Functional Modes

7.4.1 Enable Control

The LP3991 features an active high enable (EN) pin, which turns the device on when pulled high. When not

enabled the regulator output is off and the device typically consumes 2 nA.

If the application does not require the enable switching feature, the EN pin must be tied to VIN to keep the

regulator output permanently on.

To ensure proper operation, the signal source used to drive the EN input must be able to swing above and below

the specified turnon/off voltage thresholds listed in Typical Characteristics under VIL and VIH.

8 Application and Implementation

NOTE

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component

specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are

responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should

validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

8.1 Application Information

The LP3991 can provide 300-mA output current with 1.65-V to 4-V input. It is stable with a 2.2-μF or 4.7-µF

ceramic output capacitor. An optional external bypass capacitor reduces the output noise without slowing down

the load transient response. Typical output noise is 280 μVRMS at frequencies from 10 Hz to 100 kHz. Typical

power supply rejection is 65 dB at 1 kHz.

8.2 Typical Application

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

8.2.2.1 External Capacitors

In common with most regulators, the LP3991 requires external capacitors for regulator stability. The LP3991 is

specifically designed for portable applications requiring minimum board space and smallest components. These

capacitors must be correctly selected for good performance.

LP3991

SNVS296J –DECEMBER 2006–REVISED JUNE 2016

www.ti.com

Product Folder Links: LP3991

8.2.2.2 Input Capacitor

An input capacitor is required for stability. It is recommended that a 1-µF capacitor be connected between the

LP3991 IN pin and ground (this capacitance value may be increased without limit).

This capacitor must be located a distance of not more than 1 cm from the IN pin and returned to a clean analog

ground. Any good-quality ceramic, tantalum, or film capacitor may be used at the input.

NOTE

Tantalum capacitors can suffer catastrophic failures due to surge current when connected

to a low-impedance source of power (like a battery or a very large capacitor). If a tantalum

capacitor is used at the input, a surge current rating sufficient for the application must be

ensured by the manufacturer.

There are no requirements for the equivalent series resistance (ESR) on the input capacitor, but tolerance,

temperature, and voltage coefficients must be considered when selecting the capacitor to ensure the capacitance

remains ≊1 µF over the entire operating temperature range.

8.2.2.3 Output Capacitor

Correct selection of the output capacitor is critical to ensure stable operation in the intended application.

The output capacitor must meet all the requirements specified in the recommended capacitor table over all

conditions in the application. these conditions include DC bias, frequency and temperature. Unstable operation

results if the capacitance drops below the minimum specified value.

The LP3991 is designed specifically to work with very small ceramic output capacitors. For voltage options of 1.5

V and higher, A 4.7-µF ceramic capacitor (dielectric type X7R or X5R) with an ESR between 5 mΩto 500 mΩ, is

suitable in the LP3991 application circuit. However, on lower VOUT options a 2.2-µF may be employed with only a

small increase in load transient.

Other ceramic types such as Y5V and Z5U are less suitable owing to their inferior temperature characteristics.

(See Capacitor Characteristics.)

It is also recommended that the output capacitor is placed within 1 cm of the OUT pin and returned to a clean,

low impedance, ground connection.

It is possible to use tantalum or film capacitors at the device output, VOUT, but these are not as attractive for

reasons of size and cost. (See Capacitor Characteristics.)

8.2.2.4 No-Load Stability

The LP3991 remains stable and in regulation with no external load. This is an important consideration in some

circuits, for example CMOS RAM keep-alive applications.

8.2.2.5 Capacitor Characteristics

The LP3991 is designed to work with ceramic capacitors on the input and output to take advantage of the

benefits they offer. For capacitance values around 4.7 µF, ceramic capacitors give the circuit designer the best

design options in terms of low cost and minimal area.

For both input and output capacitors, careful interpretation of the capacitor specification is required to ensure

correct device operation. The capacitor value can change greatly dependant on the conditions of operation and

capacitor type.

In particular, to ensure stability, the output capacitor selection must take account of all the capacitor parameters,

to ensure that the specification is met within the application. Capacitance value can vary with DC bias conditions

as well as temperature and frequency of operation. Capacitor values also show some decrease over time due to

aging. The capacitor parameters are also dependant on the particular case size with smaller sizes giving poorer

performance figures in general.

Figure 13. Effect of DC Bias on Capacitance Value

As an example Figure 13 shows a typical graph showing a comparison of capacitor case sizes in a capacitance

vs. DC Bias plot. As shown in Figure 13, as a result of the DC Bias condition, the capacitance value may drop

below the minimum capacitance value given in the recommended capacitor table. Note that Figure 13 shows the

capacitance out of spec for the 0402 case size capacitor at higher bias voltages. TI therefore recommends that

the capacitor manufacturers' specifications for the nominal value capacitor are consulted for all conditions as

some capacitor sizes (for example, 0402) may not be suitable in the actual application. Ceramic capacitors have

the lowest ESR values, thus making them best for eliminating high frequency noise. The ESR of a typical 4.7-µF

ceramic capacitor is in the range of 20 mΩto 40 mΩ, which easily meets the ESR requirement for stability for the

LP3991. The temperature performance of ceramic capacitors varies by type. Capacitor type X7R is specified with

a tolerance of ±15% over the temperature range –55°C to +125°C. The X5R has a similar tolerance over the

reduced temperature range of –55°C to +85°C. Some large value ceramic capacitors (4.7 µF) are manufactured

with Z5U or Y5V temperature characteristics, which can result in the capacitance dropping by more than 50% as

the temperature varies from 25°C to +85°C. Therefore, X7R or X5R types are recommended in applications

where the temperature changes significantly above or below 25°C.

Tantalum capacitors are less desirable than ceramic for use as output capacitors because they are more

expensive when comparing equivalent capacitance and voltage ratings in the 1-µF to 4.7-µF range. Another

important consideration is that tantalum capacitors have higher ESR values than equivalent size ceramics. This

means that while it may be possible to find a tantalum capacitor with an ESR value within the stable range, it

would have to be larger in capacitance (which means bigger and more costly) than a ceramic capacitor with the

same ESR value. The ESR of a typical tantalum increases about 2:1 as the temperature goes from 25°C down to

–40°C, so some guard band must be allowed.

8.2.2.6 Power Dissipation

Knowing the device power dissipation and proper sizing of the thermal plane connected to the tab or pad is

critical to ensuring reliable operation. Device power dissipation depends on input voltage, output voltage, and

load conditions and can be calculated with Equation 1.

PD(MAX) = (VIN(MAX) – VOUT)×IOUT (1)

Power dissipation can be minimized, and greater efficiency can be achieved, by using the lowest available

voltage drop option that would still be greater than the dropout voltage (VDO). However, keep in mind that higher

voltage drops result in better dynamic (that is, PSRR and transient) performance.

On the LP3991 DSBGA (YZR) package, the primary conduction path for heat is through the four bumps to the

PCB. The maximum allowable junction temperature (TJ(MAX)) determines maximum power dissipation allowed

(PD(MAX)) for the device package.

Power dissipation and junction temperature are most often related by the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance

(RθJA) of the combined PCB and device package and the temperature of the ambient air (TA), according to

Equation 2 or Equation 3:

TJ(MAX) = TA(MAX) +(RθJA × PD(MAX)) (2)

PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) – TA(MAX)) / RθJA (3)

Product Folder Links: LP3991

Unfortunately, this RθJA is highly dependent on the heat-spreading capability of the particular PCB design, and

therefore varies according to the total copper area, copper weight, and location of the planes. The RθJA recorded

in Thermal Information is determined by the specific EIA/JEDEC JESD51-7 standard for PCB and copper-

spreading area, and is to be used only as a relative measure of package thermal performance. For a well-

designed thermal layout, RθJA is actually the sum of the package junction-to-board thermal resistance (RθJB) plus

the thermal resistance contribution by the PCB copper area acting as a heat sink.

8.2.2.7 Estimating Junction Temperature

The EIA/JEDEC standard recommends the use of psi (Ψ) thermal characteristics to estimate the junction

temperatures of surface mount devices on a typical PCB board application. These characteristics are not true

thermal resistance values, but rather package specific thermal characteristics that offer practical and relative

means of estimating junction temperatures. These psi metrics are determined to be significantly independent of

copper-spreading area. The key thermal characteristics (ΨJT and ΨJB) are given in Thermal Information and are

used in accordance with Equation 4 or Equation 5.

TJ(MAX) = TTOP + (ΨJT × PD(MAX))

where

• PD(MAX) is explained in Equation 1

• TTOP is the temperature measured at the center-top of the device package. (4)

TJ(MAX) = TBOARD + (ΨJB × PD(MAX))

where

• PD(MAX) is explained in Equation 1

• TBOARD is the PCB surface temperature measured 1 mm from the device package and centered on the

package edge. (5)

For more information about the thermal characteristics ΨJT and ΨJB, see Semiconductor and IC Package

Thermal Metrics (SPRA953); for more information about measuring TTOP and TBOARD, see Using New Thermal

Metrics (SBVA025); and for more information about the EIA/JEDEC JESD51 PCB used for validating RθJA, see

9 Power Supply Recommendations

The LP3991 is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range from 1.65 V to 4 V.

10 Layout

10.1 Layout Guidelines

The dynamic performance of the LP3991 is dependant on the layout of the PCB. PCB layout practices that are

adequate for typical LDOs may degrade the PSRR or transient performance of the LP3991.

Best performance is achieved by placing all of the components on the same side of the PCB as the LP3991, as

close as is practical to the LP3991 package. All component ground connections must be back to the LP3991

analog ground connection using as wide and as short of a copper trace as is practical.

Connections using long trace lengths, narrow trace widths, and connections through vias must be avoided.

These add parasitic inductances and resistance that results in inferior performance especially during transient

conditions.

A ground plane, either on the opposite side of a two-layer PCB, or embedded in a multi-layer PCB, is strongly

recommended. This ground plane serves two purposes:

1. Provides a circuit reference plane to assure accuracy, and

2. Provides a thermal plane to remove heat from the LP3991 through thermal vias under the package DAP.

10.3 DSBGA Mounting

The DSBGA package requires specific mounting techniques which are detailed in AN-1112 DSBGA Wafer Level

Chip Scale Package. Referring to the section Surface Mount Technology (SMT) Assenbly Considerations, the

pad style that must be used with the 4-pin package is a NSMD (non-solder mask defined) type.

For best results during assembly, alignment ordinals on the PCB may be used to facilitate placement of the

DSBGA device.

10.4 DSBGA Light Sensitivity

Exposing the DSBGA device to direct sunlight may cause mis-operation of the device. Light sources such as

halogen lamps can affect the electrical performance if brought near to the device.

The wavelengths that have the most detrimental effect are reds and infra-reds, which means that the fluorescent

lighting used inside most buildings has little effect on performance.
