Application Board
Information
General Information
This board is designed to allow the evaluation of either the
LP3996 or the LP5996 Dual Voltage Regulator. Each board
is pre-assembled and tested in the factory. The board con-
tains the LP3996 / LP5996 in a 10 lead LLP package with all
the associated passive components to enable all features of
either device to be tested.
The LP3996 / LP5996 are Dual, Low Drop-out Voltage Regu-
lators with independent enable pins. LDO1 can deliver a
maximum current of 150mA. while LDO2 can deliver up to
300mA. The LP3996 has an ERROR Flag associated with
LDO2. The flag is set to Low if LDO2 is out of regulation and
by adding a capacitor between the SET pin and GND, the
flag may also be used as a delayed Power-On-reset (POR),
see below.
1µF ceramic capacitors are fitted from V
to GND.
The POR feature is not included in the LP5996. Both devices
also have a Bypass pin and by connecting a capacitor (10nF
typ.) to GND, the output noise can be reduced substantially.
Operation
The input voltage, applied between V
at least 0.5V greater than the highest V
than 6.0V. The minimum operating voltage is 2.0V. Loads
can be connected to V
GND. Internal short circuit protection is provided for each
LDO. Additional sense pins, V
vided on the board to allow accurate measurements directly
on the input and output pins of the device, eliminating any
voltage drop on the PCB traces or connecting wires to the
loads. Input leads should be kept reasonably short to mini-
mize inductance. If longer input leads (
may be necessary to increase the value of the input capaci-
tor to 2.2µF to ensure stability.
ON/OFF control is provided by logic signals on EN1 and
EN2. A minimum of 0.95V is required on these pins to enable
the corresponding LDO. The LDOs will be shutdown with the
enable pins set to 0.4V or less. If ON/OFF control is not
required, then either or both enable pins may be connected
to V
EN2 to GND.

On the LP3996 only, the active low POR flag on LDO2 is
asserted when the output of LDO2 drops below 90% (typical)
of its regulated value indicating that LDO2 is out of regulation
due to an overload or fault condition. During start-up, or
following the removal of a fault condition, the flag will remain
in the Low state until the output of LDO2 reaches 92%
(typical) of its maximum value. By adding, a capacitor be-
tween the SET pin and GND, a delay can be programmed to
the rising state of the POR output which may then be used
as a Power-On-Reset for a micro controller within the user’s
application, for example. The Delay time is set by the follow-
ing formula.
Typically, V
0.1µF capacitor (C2) fitted, the delay time will be around
125ms.
The POR output is an open drain NMOS transistor. It is
pulled up to to V
evaluation board. Note that when the POR is in the HIGH
state, any significant loading, a 1MΩ Oscilloscope input, for
example, will cause the voltage to drop due the 470kΩ
pull-up. A 10X probe should be used. In the LOW state, with
a sink current of 250µA, the POR pin will have a level of
20mV (typical).
Output noise is minimized by the inclusion of a 10nF bypass
capacitor (C5). Together with an internal resistor, this forms a
low-pass filter for the internal reference voltage which re-
duces the noise on both V
