The LP2985AIM5-3.6/NOPB is a low dropout (LDO) voltage regulator manufactured by Texas Instruments. It is part of their MicroPwr family of 150mA low-noise LDO regulators. This device provides superior performance, reliability, and simplified thermal management compared to traditional fixed linear regulators. It features an input voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V, an output voltage of 3.6V, and a tight load and line regulation of 0.5%. The LP2985AIM5 includes an output current limitation, overtemperature protection, short-circuit protection, and current foldback protection in order to protect the device in the event of an overload. It has a standard temperature range from -40°C to 125°C, and an "A" grade extended temperature range from -40°C to 150°C. It is available in an 8-pin MSOP package for surface mount applications.
