This regulator has various functions such as alarm which warns of a low output voltage, often due to falling batteries on the input, the external shutdown which enables the regulator to be switched on and off, current and temperature limiting.

At lower output voltage, more capacitance is required. without this capacitance the part will oscillate. 6 LP2951 Mechanical Dimension Package Dimensions in millimeters 8-SOP MIN #5 6.00 0.30 0.236 0.012 8 0~ +0.10 0.15 -0.05 +0.004 0.006 -0.002 MAX0.10 MAX0.004 1.80 MAX 0.071 3.95 0.20 0.156 0.008 5.72 0.225 0.41 0.10 0.016 0.004 #4 1.27 0.050 #8 5.13 MAX 0.202 #1 4.92 0.20 0.194 0.008 ( 0.56 ) 0.022 1.55 0.20 0.061 0.008 0.1~0.25 0.004~0.001 0.50 0.20 0.020 0.008 7 LP2951 Ordering Information Product Number Package Operationg Temperature LP2951CM 8-SOP -40 ~ +125C DISCLAIMER FAIRCHILD SEMICONDUCTOR RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE TO ANY PRODUCTS HEREIN TO IMPROVE RELIABILITY, FUNCTION OR DESIGN.
