Typical Applications
*Required if regulator is located far from power supply filter.
**C2 must be at least 100 μF 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. The equivalent series resistance (ESR) of this capacitor is critical; see curve.

(4) The maximum power dissipation is a function of maximum junction temperature TJmax, total thermal resistance θJA, and ambient
temperature TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is PD= (TJmax TA)/θJA. If this dissipation is
exceeded, the die temperature will rise above 150°C and the LM2931-N will go into thermal shutdown. For the LM2931-N in the TO-92
package, θJA is 195°C/W; in the SOIC-8 package, θJA is 160°C/W, and in the TO-220 package, θJA is 50°C/W; in the DDPAK/TO-263
package, θJA is 73°C/W; and in the 6-Bump DSBGA package θJA is 290°C/W. If the TO-220 package is used with a heat sink, θJA is the
sum of the package thermal resistance junction-to-case of 3°C/W and the thermal resistance added by the heat sink and thermal
interface.If the TO-263 package is used, the thermal resistance can be reduced by increasing the P.C. board copper area thermally
connected to the package: Using 0.5 square inches of copper area, θJA is 50°C/W; with 1 square inch of copper area, θJA is 37°C/W;
and with 1.6 or more square inches of copper area, θJA is 32°C/W.

APPLICATION HINTS
One of the distinguishing factors of the LM2931-N series regulators is the requirement of an output capacitor for
device stability. The value required varies greatly depending upon the application circuit and other factors. Thus
some comments on the characteristics of both capacitors and the regulator are in order.
High frequency characteristics of electrolytic capacitors depend greatly on the type and even the manufacturer.
As a result, a value of capacitance that works well with the LM2931-N for one brand or type may not necessary
be sufficient with an electrolytic of different origin. Sometimes actual bench testing, as described later, will be the
only means to determine the proper capacitor type and value. Experience has shown that, as a rule of thumb, the
more expensive and higher quality electrolytics generally allow a smaller value for regulator stability. As an
example, while a high-quality 100 μF aluminum electrolytic covers all general application circuits, similar stability
can be obtained with a tantalum electrolytic of only 47μF. This factor of two can generally be applied to any
special application circuit also.
Another critical characteristic of electrolytics is their performance over temperature. While the LM2931-N is
designed to operate to 40°C, the same is not always true with all electrolytics (hot is generally not a problem).
The electrolyte in many aluminum types will freeze around 30°C, reducing their effective value to zero. Since
the capacitance is needed for regulator stability, the natural result is oscillation (and lots of it) at the regulator
output. For all application circuits where cold operation is necessary, the output capacitor must be rated to
operate at the minimum temperature. By coincidence, worst-case stability for the LM2931-N also occurs at
minimum temperatures. As a result, in applications where the regulator junction temperature will never be less
than 25°C, the output capacitor can be reduced approximately by a factor of two over the value needed for the
entire temperature range. To continue our example with the tantalum electrolytic, a value of only 22μF would
probably thus suffice. For high-quality aluminum, 47μF would be adequate in such an application.
Another regulator characteristic that is noteworthy is that stability decreases with higher output currents. This
sensible fact has important connotations. In many applications, the LM2931-N is operated at only a few milliamps
of output current or less. In such a circuit, the output capacitor can be further reduced in value. As a rough
estimation, a circuit that is required to deliver a maximum of 10mA of output current from the regulator would
need an output capacitor of only half the value compared to the same regulator required to deliver the full output
current of 100mA. If the example of the tantalum capacitor in the circuit rated at 25°C junction temperature and
above were continued to include a maximum of 10mA of output current, then the 22μF output capacitor could be
reduced to only 10μF.
In the case of the LM2931CT adjustable regulator, the minimum value of output capacitance is a function of the
output voltage. As a general rule, the value decreases with higher output voltages, since internal loop gain is
reduced.
At this point, the procedure for bench testing the minimum value of an output capacitor in a special application
circuit should be clear. Since worst-case occurs at minimum operating temperatures and maximum operating
currents, the entire circuit, including the electrolytic, should be cooled to the minimum temperature. The input
voltage to the regulator should be maintained at 0.6V above the output to keep internal power dissipation and die
heating to a minimum. Worst-case occurs just after input power is applied and before the die has had a chance
to heat up. Once the minimum value of capacitance has been found for the brand and type of electrolytic in
question, the value should be doubled for actual use to account for production variations both in the capacitor
and the regulator. (All the values in this section and the remainder of the data sheet were determined in this
fashion.)

Definition of Terms
Dropout Voltage: The input-output voltage differential at which the circuit ceases to regulate against further
reduction in input voltage. Measured when the output voltage has dropped 100 mV from the nominal value
obtained at 14V input, dropout voltage is dependent upon load current and junction temperature.
Input Voltage: The DC voltage applied to the input terminals with respect to ground.
Input-Output Differential: The voltage difference between the unregulated input voltage and the regulated
output voltage for which the regulator will operate.
Line Regulation: The change in output voltage for a change in the input voltage. The measurement is made
under conditions of low dissipation or by using pulse techniques such that the average chip temperature is
not significantly affected.
Load Regulation: The change in output voltage for a change in load current at constant chip temperature.
Long Term Stability: Output voltage stability under accelerated life-test conditions after 1000 hours with
maximum rated voltage and junction temperature.
Output Noise Voltage: The rms AC voltage at the output, with constant load and no input ripple, measured
over a specified frequency range.
Quiescent Current: That part of the positive input current that does not contribute to the positive load current.
The regulator ground lead current.
Ripple Rejection: The ratio of the peak-to-peak input ripple voltage to the peak-to-peak output ripple voltage at
a specified frequency.
Temperature Stability of VO:The percentage change in output voltage for a thermal variation from room
temperature to either temperature extreme.

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.
