On/Off Input Operation
The LP2985 is shut off by driving the ON/OFF input low, and
turned on by pulling it high. If this feature is not to be used,
the ON/OFF input should be tied to V
output on at all times.
To assure proper operation, the signal source used to drive
the ON/OFF input must be able to swing above and below the
specified turn-on/turn-off voltage thresholds listed in the Elec-
trical Characteristics section under V
operation, the turn-on (and turn-off) voltage signals applied to
the ON/OFF input must have a slew rate which is
≥
Caution: the regulator output voltage can not be guaranteed
if a slow-moving AC (or DC) signal is applied that is in the
range between the specified turn-on and turn-off voltages list-
ed under the electrical specification V
Characteristics).
REVERSE INPUT-OUTPUT VOLTAGE
The PNP power transistor used as the pass element in the
LP2985 has an inherent diode connected between the regu-
lator output and input. During normal operation (where the
input voltage is higher than the output) this diode is reverse-
biased.
However, if the output is pulled above the input, this diode will
turn ON and current will flow into the regulator output. In such
cases, a parasitic SCR can latch which will allow a high cur-
rent to flow into V
damage the part.
In any application where the output may be pulled above the
input, an external Schottky diode must be connected from
40 mV/µs.

MICRO SMD MOUNTING
The micro SMD package requires specific mounting tech-
niques which are detailed in National Semiconductor Appli-
cation Note # 1112. Referring to the section Surface Mount
Technology (SMT) Assembly Considerations, it should be
noted that the pad style which must be used with the 5-pin
package is the NSMD (non-solder mask defined) type.
For best results during assembly, alignment ordinals on the
PC board may be used to facilitate placement of the micro
SMD device.
MICRO SMD LIGHT SENSITIVITY
Exposing the micro SMD device to direct sunlight will cause
misoperation of the device. Light sources such as Halogen
lamps can also affect electrical performance if brought near
to the device.
The wavelenghts which have the most detrimental effect are
reds and infra-reds, which means that the fluorescent lighting
used inside most buildings has very little effect on perfor-
mance. A micro SMD test board was brought to within 1 cm
of a fluorescent desk lamp and the effect on the regulated
output voltage was negligible, showing a deviation of less
than 0.1% from nominal.
