LP3855ET-ADJ/NOPB Application Field and Working Principle

The LP3855ET-ADJ/NOPB is a high efficiency step-down regulator from Texas Instruments (TI). This type of regulator is referred to as a PMIC, or “Power Management IC,” and falls into the general category of voltage regulators, which are then sub-categorized as linear regulators. This device is especially suitable for handheld and battery-based applications, due to its efficient energy use and long battery life.

The LP3855ET-ADJ/NOPB is specifically targeted to battery-powered applications, or other systems where regulation of the output voltage is essential. It is capable of regulating a wide range of output voltages, from 1.8V to 5.5V in 200mV increments, with an adjustable output trim of ±2.5%.

The regulator can operate with a wide range of input voltages, from 4Vmin to 28Vmax. This regulator is capable of providing up to 1.5A continuous current and can be enabled/disabled through the use of an external logic signal. It also has thermal protection circuitry to protect against overheating, and can also be used with an external N-MOSFET to improve Efficiency.

At the heart of the LP3855ET-ADJ/NOPB is an advanced architecture that combines advanced process technology along with power convertor modulators, allowing the device to function as a switch mode regulator. This architecture consists of a voltage feed-forward control loop, current sensing, synchronous rectification, and fast response of the output voltage.

The feed-forward control loop is responsible for providing constant feedback to the system about the input voltage. This feedback is used by the system to determine the output voltage and adjust it accordingly. The current sensing circuitry is responsible for determining the load current draw and is used to ensure that the maximum allowed current limit is not exceeded.

The synchronous rectification of the LP3855ET-ADJ/NOPB ensures that the output voltage is switchmode-regulated in a highly efficient manner. This ensures that the regulator produces low ripple and noise, as well as excellent transient response. The fast response of the output voltage further ensures that the output voltage remains within 0.0035% of the steady state voltage.

The LP3855ET-ADJ/NOPB is an ideal choice for powering applications in a wide range of industries, such as automotive, medical, telecommunications, industrial, and consumer electronics. In these applications, the regulators are responsible for providing a stable, efficient and reliable power supply - reducing component cost, component count, and power supplying time. Additionally, due to its small size and low power consumption, these voltage regulators are well-suited for handheld and battery-powered applications.
