The output of comparator U2 is the ERR/RESET flag. Since
it is an open-collector output, it requires the use of a pull-up
resistor (R
put of U2, which means that its output is controlled by the
voltage applied to the non-inverting input.
The output of U1 (also an open-collector) will force the non-
inverting input of U2 to go low whenever the LP2987/8 regu-
lated output drops about 5% below nominal.
U1’s inverting input is also held at 1.23V. The other input
samples the regulated output through a resistive divider (R
and R
the voltage at the divider tap point will be 1.23V. If this volt-
age drops about 60 mV below 1.23V, the output of U1 will go
low forcing the output of U2 low (which is the ERROR state).
Power-ON reset delay occurs when a capacitor (shown as
C
tor is initially fully discharged (which means the voltage at
the Delay pin is 0V). The output of U1 keeps C
charged (by sinking the 2.2 µA from the current source) until
the regulator output voltage comes up to within about 5% of
nominal. At this point, U1’s output stops sinking current and
the 2.2 µA starts charging up C
When the voltage across C
U2 will go high (note that D1 limits the maximum voltage to
about 2V).
SELECTING C
this capacitor is 1 µF. The capacitor must not have exces-
sively high leakage current, since it is being charged from a
2.2 µA current source.
Aluminum electrolytics can not be used, but good-quality
tantalum, ceremic, mica, or film types will work.
SHUTDOWN INPUT OPERATION
The LP2987/8 is shut off by driving the Shutdown input low,
and turned on by pulling it high. If this feature is not to be
used, the Shutdown input should be tied to V
regulator output on at all times.
