DDR-II APPLICATIONS
With the separate VDDQ pin and an internal resistor divider
it is possible to use the LP2996 in applications utilizing DDR-
II memory.
tions of recommended circuits with output curves displayed
in the Typical Performance Characteristics.
If it is not desirable to use the 1.8V rail it is possible to connect
the output stage to a 3.3V rail. Care should be taken to not
exceed the maximum junction temperature as the thermal
dissipation increases with lower V

the recommended circuit configuration for DDR-II applica-
tions. The output stage is connected to the 1.8V rail and the
AVIN pin can be connected to either a 3.3V or 5V rail. For new
designs, the LP2997 or LP2998 is recommended for DDR-II
applications.
reason it is not recommended to power PVIN off a rail higher
than the nominal 3.3V. The advantage of this configuration is
that it has the ability to source and sink a higher maximum
continuous current.
