The LM2940CS-5.0/NOPB is a robust 1A low dropout linear regulator from Texas Instruments, delivering a fixed 5V output. Its low 0.8V dropout voltage and 10 mA quiescent current make it an efficient choice for battery-operated and automotive systems. Housed in a TO-263 (DDPAK-3) package, it offers excellent thermal performance for demanding applications.

  • High Current Capacity: Delivers up to 1A, suitable for powering multiple subsystems from a single regulated rail.
  • Low Dropout Voltage: The 0.8V dropout at 1A maximizes efficiency and allows operation close to the output voltage.
  • Excellent Ripple Rejection: With 64dB PSRR at 120Hz, it effectively filters AC ripple, ensuring clean power for sensitive electronics.
  • Robust Protection: Includes internal current limiting and thermal shutdown for reliable operation in harsh environments.

Automotive Power Supplies

The LM2940CS-5.0/NOPB's 1A output and 0.8V dropout make it ideal for powering sensors and microcontrollers in automotive environments, where input voltage can fluctuate significantly.

Industrial Control Systems

With a wide input voltage range and robust 1A current capability, this regulator provides a stable 5V rail for logic circuits, relays, and industrial interface modules.

Battery-Powered Equipment

Its low quiescent current of 10 mA helps extend battery life in portable instruments, while the low dropout ensures full 5V output even as the battery discharges.

Post-Regulation for Switching Supplies

Use the LM2940CS-5.0/NOPB after a DC-DC converter to reduce ripple and noise, providing a clean 5V supply for sensitive analog and RF circuits.

5V Logic and Peripheral Power

This LDO is perfect for powering 5V TTL/CMOS logic, small motors, and LED strips in embedded systems, offering thermal shutdown and current limiting for protection.

Telecom and Networking Equipment

The 64dB PSRR at 120Hz effectively filters line-frequency noise, making it suitable for powering communication modules in base stations and network switches.
