The LP2985IM5X-5.0/NOPB is an IC (integrated circuit) component designed by Texas Instruments. It is a low dropout regulator (LDO) that provides a regulated output voltage of 5.0 volts.
One of the key features of the LP2985IM5X-5.0/NOPB is its low dropout voltage, which allows it to regulate the output voltage even when the input voltage is very close to the desired output voltage. This makes it suitable for applications where a stable output voltage is required, even when the input voltage fluctuates.
Another important feature of this IC component is its low quiescent current, which helps in conserving power. The LP2985IM5X-5.0/NOPB consumes minimal current when it is in standby mode, making it ideal for battery-operated devices.
Additionally, this IC component has a wide input voltage range, typically from 2.1 volts to 16 volts, which makes it compatible with various power sources. It also provides a maximum output current of 150 mA, allowing it to power a range of small to medium-sized electronic circuits.
The LP2985IM5X-5.0/NOPB incorporates built-in thermal shutdown and current limit protection, ensuring the safety and reliability of the device. These protections prevent the IC from getting damaged due to excessive heat or overloading
