Check for Samples: LP2997
1FEATURES DESCRIPTION
The LP2997 linear regulator is designed to meet the
2 Source and Sink Current JEDEC SSTL-18 specifications for termination of
Low Output Voltage Offset DDR-II memory. The device contains a high-speed
No External Resistors Required operational amplifier to provide excellent response to
load transients. The output stage prevents shoot
Linear Topology through while delivering 500mA continuous current
Suspend to Ram (STR) Functionality and transient peaks up to 900mA in the application as
Low External Component Count required for DDR-II SDRAM termination. The LP2997
also incorporates a VSENSE pin to provide superior
Thermal Shutdown load regulation and a VREF output as a reference for
Available in SOIC-8, SO PowerPAD-8 Packages the chipset and DIMMs.
An additional feature found on the LP2997 is an
APPLICATIONS active low shutdown (SD) pin that provides Suspend
DDR-II Termination Voltage To RAM (STR) functionality. When SD is pulled low
SSTL-18 Termination the VTT output will tri-state providing a high
impedance output, but, VREF will remain active. A
power savings advantage can be obtained in this
mode through lower quiescent current.

DESCRIPTION
The LP2997 is a linear bus termination regulator designed to meet the JEDEC requirements of SSTL-18. The
output, VTT is capable of sinking and sourcing current while regulating the output voltage equal to VDDQ / 2. The
output stage has been designed to maintain excellent load regulation while preventing shoot through. The
LP2997 also incorporates two distinct power rails that separates the analog circuitry from the power output stage.
This allows a split rail approach to be utilized to decrease internal power dissipation. It also permits the LP2997
to provide a termination solution for the next generation of DDR-SDRAM memory (DDRII).
Pin Descriptions
AVIN AND PVIN AVIN and PVIN are the input supply pins for the LP2997. AVIN is used to supply all the internal control circuitry. PVIN,
however, is used exclusively to provide the rail voltage for the output stage used to create VTT. These pins have the capability to work off
separate supplies, under the condition that AVIN is always greater than or equal to PVIN. For SSTL-18 applications, it is recommended to
connect PVIN to the 1.8V rail used for the memory core and AVIN to a rail within its operating range of 2.2V to 5.5V (typically a 2.5V
supply). PVIN should always be used with either a 1.8V or 2.5V rail. This prevents the thermal limit from tripping because of excessive
internal power dissipation. If the junction temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown than the part will enter a shutdown state identical to
the manual shutdown where VTT is tri-stated and VREF remains active. A lower rail such as 1.5V can be used but it will reduce the maximum
output current, therefore it is not recommended for most termination schemes.
VDDQ VDDQ is the input used to create the internal reference voltage for regulating VTT. The reference voltage is generated from a resistor
divider of two internal 50kresistors. This ensures that VTT will track VDDQ / 2 precisely. The optimal implementation of VDDQ is as a
remote sense. This can be achieved by connecting VDDQ directly to the 1.8V rail at the DIMM instead of PVIN. This ensures that the
reference voltage tracks the DDR memory rails precisely without a large voltage drop from the power lines. For SSTL-18 applications
VDDQ will be a 1.8V signal, which will create a 0.9V termination voltage at VTT (See Electrical Characteristics Table for exact values of VTT
over temperature).
VSENSE The purpose of the sense pin is to provide improved remote load regulation. In most motherboard applications the termination
resistors will connect to VTT in a long plane. If the output voltage was regulated only at the output of the LP2997 then the long trace will
cause a significant IR drop resulting in a termination voltage lower at one end of the bus than the other. The VSENSE pin can be used to
improve this performance, by connecting it to the middle of the bus. This will provide a better distribution across the entire termination bus.
If remote load regulation is not used then the VSENSE pin must still be connected to VTT. Care should be taken when a long VSENSE trace is
implemented in close proximity to the memory. Noise pickup in the VSENSE trace can cause problems with precise regulation of VTT. A small
0.1uF ceramic capacitor placed next to the VSENSE pin can help filter any high frequency signals and preventing errors.
SHUTDOWN The LP2997 contains an active low shutdown pin that can be used for suspend to RAM functionality. In this condition the VTT
output will tri-state while the VREF output remains active providing a constant reference signal for the memory and chipset. During shutdown
VTT should not be exposed to voltages that exceed PVIN. With the shutdown pin asserted low the quiescent current of the LP2997 will drop,
however, VDDQ will always maintain its constant impedance of 100kfor generating the internal reference. Therefore, to calculate the total
power loss in shutdown both currents need to be considered. For more information refer to the Thermal Dissipation section. The shutdown
pin also has an internal pull-up current; therefore, to turn the part on the shutdown pin can either be connected to AVIN or left open
VREF VREF provides the buffered output of the internal reference voltage VDDQ / 2. This output should be used to provide the reference
voltage for the Northbridge chipset and memory. Since these inputs are typically an extremely high impedance, there should be little current
drawn from VREF. For improved performance, an output bypass capacitor can be used, located close to the pin, to help with noise. A
ceramic capacitor in the range of 0.1 µF to 0.01 µF is recommended. This output remains active during the shutdown state and thermal
shutdown events for the suspend to RAM functionality.
VTT VTT is the regulated output that is used to terminate the bus resistors. It is capable of sinking and sourcing current while regulating the
output precisely to VDDQ / 2. The LP2997 is designed to handle continuous currents of up to +/- 0.5A with excellent load regulation. If a
transient is expected to last above the maximum continuous current rating for a significant amount of time, then the bulk output capacitor
should be sized large enough to prevent an excessive voltage drop. If the LP2997 is to operate in elevated temperatures for long durations
care should be taken to ensure that the maximum junction temperature is not exceeded. Proper thermal de-rating should always be used.
(Please refer to the Thermal Dissipation section) If the junction temperature exceeds the thermal shutdown point than VTT will tri-state until
the part returns below the temperature hysteresis trip-point
COMPONENT SELECTIONS
INPUT CAPACITOR
The LP2997 does not require a capacitor for input stability, but it is recommended for improved performance
during large load transients to prevent the input rail from dropping. The input capacitor should be located as
close as possible to the PVIN pin. Several recommendations exist dependent on the application required. A
typical value recommended for AL electrolytic capacitors is 22 µF. Ceramic capacitors can also be used. A value
in the range of 10 µF with X5R or better would be an ideal choice. The input capacitance can be reduced if the
LP2997 is placed close to the bulk capacitance from the output of the 1.8V DC-DC converter. For the AVIN pin, a
small 0.1uF ceramic capacitor is sufficient to prevent excessive noise from coupling into the device.

OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The LP2997 has been designed to be insensitive of output capacitor size or ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance).
This allows the flexibility to use any capacitor desired. The choice for output capacitor will be determined solely
on the application and the requirements for load transient response of VTT. As a general recommendation the
output capacitor should be sized above 100 µF with a low ESR for SSTL applications with DDR-SDRAM. The
value of ESR should be determined by the maximum current spikes expected and the extent at which the output
voltage is allowed to droop. Several capacitor options are available on the market and a few of these are
highlighted below:
AL - It should be noted that many aluminum electrolytics only specify impedance at a frequency of 120 Hz, which
indicates they have poor high frequency performance. Only aluminum electrolytics that have an impedance
specified at a higher frequency (100 kHz) should be used for the LP2997. To improve the ESR several AL
electrolytics can be combined in parallel for an overall reduction. An important note to be aware of is the extent
at which the ESR will change over temperature. Aluminum electrolytic capacitors can have their ESR rapidly
increase at cold temperatures.
Ceramic - Ceramic capacitors typically have a low capacitance, in the range of 10 to 100 µF range, but they have
excellent AC performance for bypassing noise because of very low ESR (typically less than 10 m). However,
some dielectric types do not have good capacitance characteristics as a function of voltage and temperature.
Because of the typically low value of capacitance it is recommended to use ceramic capacitors in parallel with
another capacitor such as an aluminum electrolytic. A dielectric of X5R or better is recommended for all ceramic
capacitors.
Hybrid - Several hybrid capacitors such as OS-CON and SP are available from several manufacturers. These
offer a large capacitance while maintaining a low ESR. These are the best solution when size and performance
are critical, although their cost is typically higher than any other capacitors.
Thermal Dissipation
Since the LP2997 is a linear regulator any current flow from VTT will result in internal power dissipation
generating heat. To prevent damaging the part from exceeding the maximum allowable junction temperature,
care should be taken to derate the part dependent on the maximum expected ambient temperature and power
dissipation. The maximum allowable internal temperature rise (TRmax) can be calculated given the maximum
ambient temperature (TAmax) of the application and the maximum allowable junction temperature (TJmax).
TRmax = TJmax TAmax (1)
From this equation, the maximum power dissipation (PDmax) of the part can be calculated:
PDmax = TRmax /θJA (2)
The θJA of the LP2997 will be dependent on several variables: the package used; the thickness of copper; the
number of vias and the airflow. For instance, the θJA of the SOIC-8 is 163°C/W with the package mounted to a
standard 8x4 2-layer board with 1oz. copper, no airflow, and 0.5W dissipation at room temperature. This value
can be reduced to 151.2°C/W by changing to a 3x4 board with 2 oz. copper that is the JEDEC standard.
Figure 13 shows how the θJA varies with airflow for the two boards mentioned.

Additional improvements can be made by the judicious use of vias to connect the part and dissipate heat to an
internal ground plane. Using larger traces and more copper on the top side of the board can also help. With
careful layout it is possible to reduce the θJA further than the nominal values shown in Figure 13.
Optimizing the θJA and placing the LP2997 in a section of a board exposed to lower ambient temperature allows
the part to operate with higher power dissipation. The internal power dissipation can be calculated by summing
the three main sources of loss: output current at VTT, either sinking or sourcing, and quiescent current at AVIN
and VDDQ. During the active state (when shutdown is not held low) the total internal power dissipation can be
calculated from the following equations:
PD= PAVIN + PVDDQ + PVTT (3)
Where,
PAVIN = IAVIN * VAVIN (4)
PVDDQ = VVDDQ * IVDDQ = VVDDQ2x RVDDQ (5)
To calculate the maximum power dissipation at VTT both conditions at VTT need to be examined, sinking and
sourcing current. Although only one equation will add into the total, VTT cannot source and sink current
simultaneously.
PVTT = VVTT x ILOAD (Sinking) or (6)
PVTT = ( VPVIN - VVTT) x ILOAD (Sourcing) (7)
The power dissipation of the LP2997 can also be calculated during the shutdown state. During this condition the
output VTT will tri-state, therefore that term in the power equation will disappear as it cannot sink or source any
current (leakage is negligible). The only losses during shutdown will be the reduced quiescent current at AVIN
and the constant impedance that is seen at the VDDQ pin.
PD= PAVIN + PVDDQ (8)
PAVIN = IAVIN x VAVIN (9)
PVDDQ = VVDDQ * IVDDQ = VVDDQ2x RVDDQ (10)
Typical Application Circuits
Several different application circuits have been shown to illustrate some of the options that are possible in
configuring the LP2997. Graphs of the individual circuit performance can be found in the Typical Performance
Characteristics section in the beginning of the datasheet. These curves illustrate how the maximum output
current is affected by changes in AVIN and PVIN.
Figure 14 shows the recommended circuit configuration for DDR-II applications. The output stage is connected to
the 1.8V rail and the AVIN pin can be connected to either a 2.5V, 3.3V or 5V rail.
This circuit permits termination in a minimum amount of board space and component count. Capacitor selection
can be varied depending on the number of lines terminated and the maximum load transient. However, with
motherboards and other applications where VTT is distributed across a long plane it is advisable to use multiple
bulk capacitors and addition to high frequency decoupling. The bulk output capacitors should be situated at both
ends of the VTT plane for optimal placement. Large aluminum electrolytic capacitors are used for their low ESR
and low cost.

PCB Layout Considerations
1. The input capacitor for the power rail should be placed as close as possible to the PVIN pin.
2. VSENSE should be connected to the VTT termination bus at the point where regulation is required. For
motherboard applications an ideal location would be at the center of the termination bus.
3. VDDQ can be connected remotely to the VDDQ rail input at either the DIMM or the Chipset. This provides the
most accurate point for creating the reference voltage.
4. For improved thermal performance excessive top side copper should be used to dissipate heat from the
package. Numerous vias from the ground connection to the internal ground plane will help. Additionally these
can be located underneath the package if manufacturing standards permit.
5. Care should be taken when routing the VSENSE trace to avoid noise pickup from switching I/O signals. A
0.1uF ceramic capacitor located close to the SENSE can also be used to filter any unwanted high frequency
signal. This can be an issue especially if long SENSE traces are used.
6. VREF should be bypassed with a 0.01 µF or 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor for improved performance. This
capacitor should be located as close as possible to the VREF pin.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) reserves the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other changes to its
semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest issue. Buyers
should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete.
TI’s published terms of sale for semiconductor products (http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/stdterms.htm) apply to the sale of packaged integrated
circuit products that TI has qualified and released to market. Additional terms may apply to the use or sale of other types of TI products and
services.
Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is
accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such reproduced
documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Resale of TI products or services with statements
different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the
associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.
Buyers and others who are developing systems that incorporate TI products (collectively, “Designers”) understand and agree that Designers
remain responsible for using their independent analysis, evaluation and judgment in designing their applications and that Designers have
full and exclusive responsibility to assure the safety of Designers' applications and compliance of their applications (and of all TI products
used in or for Designers’ applications) with all applicable regulations, laws and other applicable requirements. Designer represents that, with
respect to their applications, Designer has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards that (1) anticipate dangerous
consequences of failures, (2) monitor failures and their consequences, and (3) lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause harm and
take appropriate actions. Designer agrees that prior to using or distributing any applications that include TI products, Designer will
thoroughly test such applications and the functionality of such TI products as used in such applications.
TI’s provision of technical, application or other design advice, quality characterization, reliability data or other services or information,
including, but not limited to, reference designs and materials relating to evaluation modules, (collectively, “TI Resources”) are intended to
assist designers who are developing applications that incorporate TI products; by downloading, accessing or using TI Resources in any
way, Designer (individually or, if Designer is acting on behalf of a company, Designer’s company) agrees to use any particular TI Resource
solely for this purpose and subject to the terms of this Notice.
TI’s provision of TI Resources does not expand or otherwise alter TI’s applicable published warranties or warranty disclaimers for TI
products, and no additional obligations or liabilities arise from TI providing such TI Resources. TI reserves the right to make corrections,
enhancements, improvements and other changes to its TI Resources. TI has not conducted any testing other than that specifically
described in the published documentation for a particular TI Resource.
Designer is authorized to use, copy and modify any individual TI Resource only in connection with the development of applications that
include the TI product(s) identified in such TI Resource. NO OTHER LICENSE, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY ESTOPPEL OR OTHERWISE
TO ANY OTHER TI INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT, AND NO LICENSE TO ANY TECHNOLOGY OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
RIGHT OF TI OR ANY THIRD PARTY IS GRANTED HEREIN, including but not limited to any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or
other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information
regarding or referencing third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services, or a warranty or
endorsement thereof. Use of TI Resources may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the
third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.
TI RESOURCES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITH ALL FAULTS. TI DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR
REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS, TITLE, ANY EPIDEMIC FAILURE WARRANTY AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL
PROPERTY RIGHTS. TI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR AND SHALL NOT DEFEND OR INDEMNIFY DESIGNER AGAINST ANY CLAIM,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY INFRINGEMENT CLAIM THAT RELATES TO OR IS BASED ON ANY COMBINATION OF
PRODUCTS EVEN IF DESCRIBED IN TI RESOURCES OR OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT SHALL TI BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTUAL,
DIRECT, SPECIAL, COLLATERAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN
CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF TI RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER TI HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Unless TI has explicitly designated an individual product as meeting the requirements of a particular industry standard (e.g., ISO/TS 16949
and ISO 26262), TI is not responsible for any failure to meet such industry standard requirements.
Where TI specifically promotes products as facilitating functional safety or as compliant with industry functional safety standards, such
products are intended to help enable customers to design and create their own applications that meet applicable functional safety standards
and requirements. Using products in an application does not by itself establish any safety features in the application. Designers must
ensure compliance with safety-related requirements and standards applicable to their applications. Designer may not use any TI products in
life-critical medical equipment unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special contract specifically governing such use.
Life-critical medical equipment is medical equipment where failure of such equipment would cause serious bodily injury or death (e.g., life
support, pacemakers, defibrillators, heart pumps, neurostimulators, and implantables). Such equipment includes, without limitation, all
medical devices identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Class III devices and equivalent classifications outside the U.S.
TI may expressly designate certain products as completing a particular qualification (e.g., Q100, Military Grade, or Enhanced Product).
Designers agree that it has the necessary expertise to select the product with the appropriate qualification designation for their applications
and that proper product selection is at Designers’ own risk. Designers are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory
requirements in connection with such selection.
Designer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages, costs, losses, and/or liabilities arising out of Designer’s non-
compliance with the terms and provisions of this Notice.
