LP2996MX/NOPB

Power Management - Specialized Overview

The LP2996MX/NOPB is a specialized power management integrated circuit designed as a DDR termination regulator. Manufactured by Texas Instruments, it operates within an input voltage range of 1.8 V to 5.5 V and delivers a maximum output current of 1.5 A. The device provides a fixed maximum output voltage of 900 mV with a quiescent input current of 320 uA. It is housed in an SOIC-8 surface-mount package and supports operation temperatures from 0°C to +125°C.

Power Management - Specialized Feature Summary

• Integrated DDR termination regulation for memory interface stability
• High output current capability of 1.5 A for demanding loads
• Low quiescent current consumption for efficient power management

Power Management - Specialized Applications

• DDR SDRAM termination circuits
• Memory subsystem power regulation
• Embedded system board-level power distribution

Power Management - Specialized Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix configuration against the manufacturer's official datasheet to ensure compatibility with required thermal and electrical specifications. Confirm that the SOIC-8 package dimensions align with the target PCB footprint. Cross-reference the RoHS status and environmental compliance data directly from the product documentation prior to integration into final designs.

Power Management - Specialized Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring dedicated termination for DDR memory interfaces. Ensure the input supply voltage remains within the 1.8 V to 5.5 V operational window. Consider the thermal performance of the SOIC-8 package under maximum load conditions, as the device handles up to 1.5 A output current while maintaining regulation within the specified temperature range.

Power Management - Specialized Part Context

This part belongs to the LP2996 series of specialized PMICs from Texas Instruments. It is distinct from general-purpose linear regulators due to its specific optimization for DDR termination applications. The NOPB suffix indicates non-Pb (lead-free) packaging compliant with environmental standards, distinguishing it from older leaded variants in the same functional family.

Power Management - Specialized Replacement Considerations

LP2995MX/NOPB serves as a direct substitute within the same product family, offering similar DDR termination functionality.
