LM2940 LM2940C 1A Low Dropout Regulator General Description The LM2940 LM2940C positive voltage regulator features the ability to source 1A of output current with a dropout voltage of typically 0 5V and a maximum of 1V over the entire temperature range Furthermore a quiescent current reduction circuit has been included which reduces the ground current when the differential between the input voltage and the output voltage exceeds approximately 3V The quiescent current with 1A of output current and an input output differential of 5V is therefore only 30 mA Higher quiescent currents only exist when the regulator is in the dropout mode VIN VOUT 3V Designed also for vehicular applications the LM2940 LM2940C and all regulated circuitry are protected from reverse battery installations or 2 battery jumps During line transients such as load dump when the input voltage can momentarily exceed the specified maximum operating volt age the regulator will automatically shut down to protect both the internal circuits and the load The LM2940 LM2940C cannot be harmed by temporary mirror image insertion Familiar regulator features such as short circuit and thermal overload protection are also provided Features Dropout voltage typically 0 5V IO 1A Output current in excess of 1A Output voltage trimmed before assembly Reverse battery protection Internal short circuit current limit Mirror image insertion protection P Product Enhancement tested Typical Application 882203 Required if regulator is located far from power supply filter COUT must be at least 22 F to maintain stability May be increased without bound to maintain regulation during transients Locate as close as possible to the regulator This capacitor must be rated over the same operating temperature range as the regulator and the ESR is critical see curve Ordering Information Temp Range 0 C TJ 125 C Output Voltage Package 5 0 8 0 9 0 10 12 15 LM2940CT 5 0 LM2940CT 9 0 LM2940CT 12 LM2940CT 15 LM2940CS 5 0 LM2940CS 9 0
