LP38513S-1.8 Evaluation
Board
Introduction
This board is designed to enable the evaluation of the
LP38513S-1.8 Voltage Regulator. Each board is assembled
and tested in the factory. This evaluation board has the
TO-263 5–lead package mounted.
General Description
The LP38513 is a linear regulator capable of supplying up to
3A of output current, and incorporates Enable and Error flag
features.
The device has been designed to work with 10 µF ceramic
input and output capacitors. Footprints areas for C

Operation
The input voltage, applied between V
at least 2.25V, and no higher than 5.5V.
Loads can be connected to V
Test points are provided on the board to allow monitoring of
V
If the application does not require the Enable function, the EN
pin should be connected to directly to the adjacent V
Enable Operation
The Enable On/Off threshold is typically 850 mV, and has no
hysteresis. The voltage signal must rise and fall cleanly, and
promptly, through this threshold.
The Enable pin (EN) has no internal pull-up or pull-down to
establish a default condition and, as a result, this pin must be
terminated either actively or passively.
If the Enable pin is driven from a single ended device (such
as the collector of a discrete transistor) a pull-up resistor to

proper operation. A 1 kΩ to 100 kΩ resistor can be used as
the pull-up or pull-down resistor to establish default condition
for the EN pin. The resistor value selected should be appro-
priate to swamp out any leakage in the external single ended
device, as well as any stray capacitance.
If the Enable pin is driven from a source that actively pulls high
and low (such as a CMOS rail to rail comparator output), the
pull-up, or pull-down, resistor is not required.
If the application does not require the Enable function, the EN
pin should be connected to directly to the adjacent V
The status of the Enable pin also affects the behavior of the
ERROR Flag. While the Enable pin is high the regulator con-
trol loop will be active and the ERROR Flag will report the
status of the output voltage. When the Enable pin is taken low
the regulator control loop is shutdown, the output is turned off,
and the internal logic will immediately force the ERROR Flag
pin low.
ERROR Flag
When the LP38513 Enable pin is high, the ERROR Flag pin
will produce a logic low signal when the output drops by more
than 10% (typical) from the nominal output voltage. The drop
in output voltage may be due to low input voltage, current
limiting, or thermal limiting. This flag has a built in hysteresis.
The output voltage will need to rise to within 5% of the nominal
output voltage for the ERROR Flag to return to a logic high
state. It should also be noted that when the Enable pin is
pulled low, the ERROR Flag pin is forced to be low as well.
The internal ERROR flag comparator has an open drain out-
put stage. Hence, the ERROR pin requires an external pull-
up resistor. The value of the pull-up resistor should be in the
range of 2 kΩ to 100 kΩ, and should be connected to the
LP38513 output voltage pin. The ERROR Flag pin should not
be pulled-up to any voltage source higher than V
flow through an internal parasitic diode may cause unexpect-
ed behavior. When the input voltage is less than typically
