load)
• Low quiescent current (typ. 2.5 mA, at 100 mA
load)
• Output current up to 100 mA
• Adjustable (from VOUT = 2.5 V only SO-8) and
fixed (3.3 V and 5 V) output voltage version
• Internal current and thermal limit
• Load dump protection up to 60 V
• Reverse transient protection up to - 50 V

• Package available: TO-92, DPAK, SO-8 (with
inhibit control)
The LM2931 are very low drop regulators. The
very low drop voltage and the low quiescent
current make them particular suitable for low
noise, low power applications and in battery-
powered systems. In the 8-pin configuration
(SO-8), fully compatible with the older L78L
family, a shutdown logic control function is
available. This means that when the device is
used as a local regulator it is possible to put a part
of the board in standby, decreasing total power
consumption. Ideal for automotive applications,
LM2931 is protected from reverse battery
installations or 2 battery jumps. During the
transient, such as a 60 V load dump, when the
input voltage can exceed the specified maximum
operating input voltage of 26 V, the regulator
automatically shuts down to protect both internal
circuitry and the load.
