LND2931
100mA Low Dropout Voltage Regulator
DATA
SHEET
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
3- terminal regulators ( To-220-5, SO-8
for LND2931)
100mA output within 2% over
temperature
Very low quiescent current
Low dropout voltage (300mV Typ)
Extremely tight load and line regulation
Very low temperature coefficient
Current and thermal limiting
Unregulated DC input can withstand
–20V reverse battery and +60V positive
transients
Direct replacement for National
LM2931 fixed series, but has lower
ground current, higher accuracy of
output voltage and extremely tight load
and line regulation. For adjust model
LND2931 see typical applications on
figure 2.
FEATURES
This series of fixed-voltage and adjustable
monolithic micropower voltage regulators is
designed for a wide range of applications. This
device is an excellent choice for use in battery-
powered application. Furthermore, the
quiescent current increases only slightly at
dropout, which prolongs battery life. This series
of fixed-voltage ( Typ. 60mV at light load and
300mV at 100mV) includes a tight initial
tolerance of 0.5% typ., extremely good load and
line regulation of 0.05% typ., and very low output
temperature coefficient. This series of fixed-
voltage and adjustable regulators is offered in 3-
pin TO-92 package (TO-220-5, SO-8 for
LND2931) compatible with other fixed-voltage
regulators.

Note 1: Output or reference voltage temperature coefficients defined as the worst case voltage change
divided by the total temperature range.
Note 2: Regulations are measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low duty
cycle. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are covered under the specification for thermal
regulation.
Note 3: Line regulation is tested at 150ºC for IL = 1mA, for IL=100µA and TJ =125ºC, line regulation is
guaranteed by design to 0.2%. For LND2931-15 16V<= Vin <=26V.
Note 4: Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2%
below its nominal value measured at 1V differential.
Note 5: Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the source is
the sum of the ground pin current and output load current.
Note 6: Thermal regulation is the change in output voltage at a time T after a change in power dissipation,
excluding load or line regulation effects. Specifications are for a 50mA load pulse (1.25W pulse) for
T=10ms.
