(1) Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. Recommended Operating Conditions indicate

conditions for which the device is intended to be functional, but does not ensure specific performance limits. For ensured specifications

and test conditions, see Electrical Characteristics. The ensured specifications apply only for the test conditions listed. Some

performance characteristics may degrade when the device is not operated under the listed test conditions.

(2) If Military- or Aerospace-specified devices are required, please contact the TI Sales Office/Distributors for availability and specifications.

(3) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, TJ(MAX), the junction-to-ambient thermal

resistance, RθJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated

using: P(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) – TA) / RθJA.

(4) If used in a dual-supply system where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the LP396X output must be diode-clamped to

ground.

(5) The output PMOS structure contains a diode between the IN and OUT pins. This diode is normally reverse biased. This diode will get

forward biased if the voltage at the OUT pin is forced to be higher than the voltage at the IN pin. This diode can typically withstand 200

mA of DC current and 1 A of peak current.

(1) Limits are 100% production tested at 25°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are specified through correlation using

Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods. The limits are used to calculate TI's Average Outgoing Quality Level (AOQL).

(2) Typical numbers are at 25°C and represent the most likely parametric norm.

(3) Output voltage line regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in the input line voltage.

Output voltage load regulation is defined as the change in output voltage from the nominal value due to change in load current. The line

and load regulation specification contains only the typical number. However, the limits for line and load regulation are included in the

output voltage tolerance specification.

(4) Dropout voltage is defined as the minimum input-to-output differential voltage at which the output drops 2% below the nominal value.

Dropout voltage specification applies only to output voltages of 2.5 V and above. For output voltages below 2.5 V, the drop-out voltage

is nothing but the input-to-output differential voltage because the minimum input voltage is 2.5 V.

(5) This specification has been tested for –40°C ≤TJ≤85°C because the temperature rise of the device is negligible under shutdown

conditions.

(6) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, TJ(MAX), the junction-to-ambient thermal

resistance, RθJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated

using: P(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) – TA) / RθJA.

7 Detailed Description

7.1 Overview

The LP3961/LP3964 are a series of ultra-low dropout linear regulators. Fixed output products have output

voltage options from 1.2 V to 5 V, adjustable output voltage is only available for LP3964. These regulators can

provide maximum 800-mA load current. The device can operate under extremely low dropout conditions.

The LP3961 has an ERROR flag pin, this pin will go low when the output voltage drops 10% below nominal

value. The LP3964 (fixed output products) provides a SENSE pin. The SENSE pin can improve regulation at

remote loads. The LP3961, LP3964 also provide short-circuit protection and reverse current path. The devices

can be operated with shutdown (SD) pin control.

7.3 Feature Description

7.3.1 Short-Circuit Protection

The LP3961 and LP3964 are short-circuit protected and in the event of a peak overcurrent condition, the short-

circuit control loop will rapidly drive the output PMOS pass element off. Once the power pass element shuts

down, the control loop will rapidly cycle the output on and off until the average power dissipation causes the

thermal shutdown circuit to respond to servo the on/off cycling to a lower frequency. Please refer to the section

on thermal information for power dissipation calculations.

7.3.2 ERROR Flag Operation

The LP3961 produces a logic low signal at the ERROR flag pin when the output drops out of regulation due to

low input voltage, current limiting, or thermal limiting. This flag has a built-in hysteresis. The timing diagram in

Figure 20 shows the relationship between the ERROR pin and the output voltage. In this example, the input

voltage is changed to demonstrate the functionality of the ERROR flag.

The internal ERROR flag comparator has an open drain output stage. Hence, the ERROR pin should be pulled

high through a pull-up resistor. Although the ERROR pin can sink current of 1 mA, this current is an energy drain

from the input supply. Hence, the value of the pull-up resistor should be in the range of 100 kΩto 1 MΩ. The

ERROR pin must be connected to ground if this function is not used. It should also be noted that when the SD

pin is pulled low, the ERROR pin is forced to be invalid for reasons of saving power in shutdown mode.

Feature Description (continued)

Figure 20. ERROR Flag Operation

7.3.3 SENSE Pin

In applications where the regulator output is not very close to the load, LP3964 can provide better remote load

regulation using the SENSE pin. Figure 21 depicts the advantage of the SENSE option. LP3961 regulates the

voltage at the OUT pin. Hence, the voltage at the remote load will be the regulator output voltage minus the drop

across the trace resistance. For example, in the case of a 3.3-V output, if the trace resistance is 100 mΩ, the

voltage at the remote load will be 3.22 V with 800 mA of load current, ILOAD. The LP3964 regulates the voltage at

the SENSE pin. Connecting the SENSE pin to the remote load will provide regulation at the remote load, as

shown in Figure 21. If the sense option pin is not required, the SENSE pin must be connected to the OUT pin.

SNVS056J –MAY 2000–REVISED JUNE 2015

Feature Description (continued)

7.3.4 Dropout Voltage

The dropout voltage of a regulator is defined as the minimum input-to-output differential required to stay within

2% of the output voltage. The LP3961 and LP3964 use an internal MOSFET with an Rds(on) of 240 mΩ

(typically). For CMOS LDOs, the dropout voltage is the product of the load current and the Rds(on) of the internal

MOSFET.

7.3.5 Reverse Current Path

The internal MOSFET in LP3961 and LP3964 has an inherent parasitic diode. During normal operation, the input

voltage is higher than the output voltage and the parasitic diode is reverse biased. However, if the output is

pulled above the input in an application, then current flows from the output to the input as the parasitic diode gets

forward biased. The output can be pulled above the input as long as the current in the parasitic diode is limited to

200-mA continuous and 1-A peak.

7.4 Device Functional Modes

7.4.1 Operation With VOUT(TARGET) + 0.35 V ≤VIN ≤7 V

For the fixed output voltage products, the devices operate if the input voltage is equal to or exceeds

VOUT(TARGET) + 0.35 V. At input voltages below the minimum VIN requirement, the devices do not operate

correctly and output voltage may not reach target value.

7.4.2 Operation With Shutdown (SD) Pin Control

A CMOS logic low level signal at the shutdown (SD) pin will turn off the regulator. The SD pin must be actively

terminated through a 10-kΩpullup resistor for a proper operation. This pin must be tied to the IN pin if not used .

8 Application and Implementation

NOTE

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component

specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are

responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should

validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

8.1 Application Information

The LP3961, LP3964 products can provide 800-mA output current with 2.5-V to 7-V input voltage. An input

capacitor of at least 68-uF is required. A minimum 33-uF output capacitor is required for loop stability. Pin SD

must be tied to input if not used. For LP3961, the ERROR pin should be pulled high through a pull up resistor; if

this function is not used, ERROR pin must be connected to ground . For LP3964, if the sense option is not

required, the SENSE pin must be connected to the OUT pin.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

8.2.2.1 External Capacitors

Like any low-dropout regulator, external capacitors are required to assure stability. these capacitors must be

correctly selected for proper performance.

8.2.2.1.1 Input Capacitor

The LP3961 or LP3964 requires a low source impedance to maintain regulator stability because the internal bias

circuitry is connected directly to the IN pin. The input capacitor must be located less than 1 cm from the LP3961

or LP3964 device and connected directly to the IN and GND pins using traces which have no other currents

flowing through them (see the Layout Guidelines section).

The minimum allowable input capacitance for a given application depends on the type of the capacitor and

equivalent series resistance (ESR). A lower ESR capacitor allows the use of less capacitance, while higher ESR

types (like aluminum electrolytics) require more capacitance.

The lowest value of input capacitance that can be used for stable full-load operation is 68 µF (assuming it is a

ceramic or low-ESR Tantalum with ESR less than 100 mΩ).

To determine the minimum input capacitance amount and ESR value, an approximation is used:

CIN ESR (mΩ) / CIN (µF) ≤1.5 (1)

This shows that input capacitors with higher ESR values can be used if sufficient total capacitance is provided.

Capacitor types (aluminum, ceramic, and tantalum) can be mixed in parallel, but the total equivalent input

capacitance/ESR must be defined as above to assure stable operation.

IMPORTANT: The input capacitor must maintain its ESR and capacitance in the stable range over the entire

temperature range of the application to assure stability (see the Capacitor Characteristics section).

8.2.2.1.2 Output Capacitor

An output capacitor is also required for loop stability. It must be located less than 1 cm from the LP3961 or

LP3964 device and connected directly to the OUT and GND pins using traces which have no other currents

flowing through them (see the Layout Guidelines section).

The minimum value of the output capacitance that can be used for stable full-load operation is 33 µF, but it may

be increased without limit. The ESR of the output capacitor is critical because it forms a zero to provide phase

lead which is required for loop stability. The ESR must fall within the specified range:

0.2 Ω ≤ COUT ESR ≤5Ω(2)

The lower limit of 200 mΩmeans that ceramic capacitors are not suitable for use as LP3961 or LP3964 output

capacitors (but can be used on the input). Some ceramic capacitance can be used on the output if the total

equivalent ESR is in the stable range: when using a 100-µF Tantalum as the output capacitor, approximately 3

µF of ceramic capacitance can be applied before stability becomes marginal.

IMPORTANT: The output capacitor must meet the requirements for minimum amount of capacitance and also

have an appropriate ESR value over the full temperature range of the application to assure stability (see the

Capacitor Characteristics section).

8.2.2.2 Selecting a Capacitor

It is important to note that capacitance tolerance and variation with temperature must be taken into consideration

when selecting a capacitor so that the minimum required amount of capacitance is provided over the full

operating temperature range. In general, a good Tantalum capacitor will show very little capacitance variation

with temperature, but a ceramic may not be as good (depending on dielectric type). Aluminum electrolytics also

typically have large temperature variation of capacitance value.

Equally important to consider is a capacitor's ESR change with temperature: this is not an issue with ceramics,

as their ESR is extremely low. However, it is very important in Tantalum and aluminum electrolytic capacitors.

Both show increasing ESR at colder temperatures, but the increase in aluminum electrolytic capacitors is so

severe they may not be feasible for some applications (see the Capacitor Characteristics section).

8.2.2.3 Capacitor Characteristics

8.2.2.3.1 Ceramic

For values of capacitance in the 10- to 100-µF range, ceramics are usually larger and more costly than

Tantalums but give superior AC performance for bypassing high-frequency noise because of very low ESR

(typically less than 10 mΩ). However, some dielectric types do not have good capacitance characteristics as a

function of voltage and temperature.

Z5U and Y5V dielectric ceramics have capacitance that drops severely with applied voltage. A typical Z5U or

Y5V capacitor can lose 60% of its rated capacitance with half of the rated voltage applied to it. The Z5U and Y5V

also exhibit a severe temperature effect, losing more than 50% of nominal capacitance at high and low limits of

the temperature range.

X7R and X5R dielectric ceramic capacitors are strongly recommended if ceramics are used, as they typically

maintain a capacitance range within ±20% of nominal over full operating ratings of temperature and voltage. Of

course, they are typically larger and more costly than Z5U/Y5U types for a given voltage and capacitance.

8.2.2.3.2 Tantalum

Solid Tantalum capacitors are recommended for use on the output because their typical ESR is very close to the

ideal value required for loop compensation. They also work well as input capacitors if selected to meet the ESR

requirements previously listed.

Tantalums also have good temperature stability: a good quality Tantalum will typically show a capacitance value

that varies less than 10 to 15% across the full temperature range of 125°C to −40°C. ESR will vary only about 2X

going from the high to low temperature limits.

The increasing ESR at lower temperatures can cause oscillations when marginal quality capacitors are used (if

the ESR of the capacitor is near the upper limit of the stability range at room temperature).

8.2.2.3.3 Aluminum

This capacitor type offers the most capacitance for the money. The disadvantages are that they are larger in

physical size, not widely available in surface mount, and have poor AC performance (especially at higher

frequencies) due to higher ESR and ESL.

Compared by size, the ESR of an aluminum electrolytic is higher than either Tantalum or ceramic, and it also

varies greatly with temperature. A typical aluminum electrolytic can exhibit an ESR increase of as much as 50X

when going from 25°C down to −40°C.

It should also be noted that many aluminum electrolytics only specify impedance at a frequency of 120 Hz, which

indicates they have poor high-frequency performance. Only aluminum electrolytics that have an impedance

specified at a higher frequency (from 20 kHz to 100 kHz) should be used for the LP396X. Derating must be

applied to the manufacturer's ESR specification, because it is typically only valid at room temperature.

Any applications using aluminum electrolytics should be thoroughly tested at the lowest ambient operating

temperature where ESR is maximum.

8.2.2.4 RFI and EMI Susceptibility

Radio frequency interference (RFI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) can degrade the performance of any

integrated circuit because of the small dimensions of the geometries inside the device. In applications where

circuit sources are present which generate signals with significant high-frequency energy content (> 1 MHz), care

must be taken to ensure that this does not affect the IC regulator.

If RFI and EMI noise is present on the input side of the LP396x regulator (such as applications where the input

source comes from the output of a switching regulator), good ceramic bypass capacitors must be used at the

input pin of the LP396x.

If a load is connected to the LP396x output which switches at high speed (such as a clock), the high-frequency

current pulses required by the load must be supplied by the capacitors on the LP396x output. Because the

bandwidth of the regulator loop is less than 100 kHz, the control circuitry cannot respond to load changes above

that frequency. The means the effective output impedance of the LP396x at frequencies above 100 kHz is

determined only by the output capacitors.

In applications where the load is switching at high speed, the output of the LP396x may need RF isolation from

the load. It is recommended that some inductance be placed between the LP396x output capacitor and the load,

and good RF bypass capacitors be placed directly across the load.

PCB layout is also critical in high-noise environments, because RFI and EMI is easily radiated directly into PC

traces. Noisy circuitry should be isolated from clean circuits where possible, and grounded through a separate

path. At MHz frequencies, ground planes begin to look inductive and RFI/EMI can cause ground bounce across

the ground plane.

In multilayer PCB applications, care should be taken in layout so that noisy power and ground planes do not

radiate directly into adjacent layers which carry analog power and ground.

8.2.2.5 Output Adjustment

An adjustable output device has output voltage range of 1.216 V to 5.1 V. To obtain a desired output voltage, the

following equation can be used with R1 always a 10-kΩresistor.

(3)

For output stability, CFmust be between 68 pF and 100 pF.

8.2.2.6 Turnon Characteristics for Output Voltages Programmed to 2.0 V or Below

As VIN increases during start-up, the regulator output will track the input until VIN reaches the minimum operating

voltage (typically about 2.2 V). For output voltages programmed to 2 V or below, the regulator output may

momentarily exceed its programmed output voltage during start up. Outputs programmed to voltages above 2 V

are not affected by this behavior.

8.2.2.7 Output Noise

Noise is specified in two ways:

• Spot noise or output noise density is the RMS sum of all noise sources, measured at the regulator output, at

a specific frequency (measured with a 1-Hz bandwidth). This type of noise is usually plotted on a curve as a

function of frequency.

• Total output noise or broadband noise is the RMS sum of spot noise over a specified bandwidth, usually

several decades of frequencies.

Attention should be paid to the units of measurement. Spot noise is measured in units µV/√Hz or nV/√Hz and

total output noise is measured in µV(rms).

The primary source of noise in low-dropout regulators is the internal reference. In CMOS regulators, noise has a

low-frequency component and a high-frequency component, which depend strongly on the silicon area and

quiescent current. Noise can be reduced in two ways: by increasing the transistor area or by increasing the

current drawn by the internal reference. Increasing the area will decrease the chance of fitting the die into a

smaller package. Increasing the current drawn by the internal reference increases the total supply current

(ground pin current). Using an optimized trade-off of ground pin current and die size, LP396x achieves low noise

performance and low quiescent current operation.

The total output noise specification for LP396x is presented in the Electrical Characteristics table. The output

noise density at different frequencies is represented by a curve under typical performance characteristics.

8.2.2.8 Shutdown Operation

A CMOS logic level signal at the shutdown (SD) pin will turnoff the regulator. Pin SD must be actively terminated

through a 10-kΩpullup resistor for a proper operation. If this pin is driven from a source that actively pulls high

and low (such as a CMOS rail-to-rail comparator), the pull-up resistor is not required. This pin must be tied to the

IN pin if not used.

8.2.2.9 Maximum Output Current Capability

LP3961 and LP3964 can deliver a continuous current of 800 mA over the full operating temperature range. A

heatsink may be required depending on the maximum power dissipation and maximum ambient temperature of

the application. Under all possible conditions, the junction temperature must be within the range specified under

operating conditions. The total power dissipation of the device is given by:

PD= (VIN −VOUT) × IOUT + VIN × IGND (4)

where IGND is the operating ground current of the device (specified under the Electrical Characteristics table).

The maximum allowable temperature rise (TRmax) depends on the maximum ambient temperature (TAmax) of the

application, and the maximum allowable junction temperature (TJmax):

TRmax = TJmax−TAmax (5)

The maximum allowable value for junction to ambient Thermal Resistance, RθJA, can be calculated using the

formula:

RθJA = TRmax / PD(6)

LP3961 and LP3964 are available in TO-220, SFM/TO-263, and SOT-223 packages. The thermal resistance

depends on amount of copper area or heat sink, and on air flow.

9 Power Supply Recommendations

The LP396x devices are designed to operate from an input voltage supply range between 2.5 V and 7 V. The

input voltage range provides adequate headroom in order for the device to have a regulated output. This input

supply must be well regulated. An input capacitor of at least 68 μF is required.

10 Layout

10.1 Layout Guidelines

Good PC layout practices must be used or instability can be induced because of ground loops and voltage drops.

The input and output capacitors must be directly connected to the IN, OUT, and GND pins of the LP396x using

traces which do not have other currents flowing in them (Kelvin connect).

The best way to do this is to lay out CIN and COUT near the device with short traces to the IN, OUT, and GND

pins. The regulator ground pin should be connected to the external circuit ground so that the regulator and its

capacitors have a single-point ground.

It should be noted that stability problems have been seen in applications where vias to an internal ground plane

were used at the ground points of the LP396x IC and the input and output capacitors. This was caused by

varying ground potentials at these nodes resulting from current flowing through the ground plane. Using a single-

point ground technique for the regulator and its capacitors fixed the problem.

Because high current flows through the traces going into the IN pin and coming from the OUT pin, Kelvin connect

the capacitor leads to these pins so there is no voltage drop in series with the input and output capacitors.

10.3 Heatsinking TO-220 Packages

The thermal resistance of a TO-220 package can be reduced by attaching it to a heatsink or a copper plane on a

PC board.

The heatsink to be used in the application should have a heatsink-to-ambient thermal resistance,

RθHA ≤RθJA −RθCH −RθJC (7)

In this equation, RθCH is the thermal resistance from the junction to the surface of the heatsink and RθJC is the

thermal resistance from the junction to the surface of the case.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) reserves the right to make corrections, enhancements, improvements and other changes to its

semiconductor products and services per JESD46, latest issue, and to discontinue any product or service per JESD48, latest issue. Buyers

should obtain the latest relevant information before placing orders and should verify that such information is current and complete.

TI’s published terms of sale for semiconductor products (http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/stdterms.htm) apply to the sale of packaged integrated

circuit products that TI has qualified and released to market. Additional terms may apply to the use or sale of other types of TI products and

services.

Reproduction of significant portions of TI information in TI data sheets is permissible only if reproduction is without alteration and is

accompanied by all associated warranties, conditions, limitations, and notices. TI is not responsible or liable for such reproduced

documentation. Information of third parties may be subject to additional restrictions. Resale of TI products or services with statements

different from or beyond the parameters stated by TI for that product or service voids all express and any implied warranties for the

associated TI product or service and is an unfair and deceptive business practice. TI is not responsible or liable for any such statements.

Buyers and others who are developing systems that incorporate TI products (collectively, “Designers”) understand and agree that Designers

remain responsible for using their independent analysis, evaluation and judgment in designing their applications and that Designers have

full and exclusive responsibility to assure the safety of Designers' applications and compliance of their applications (and of all TI products

used in or for Designers’ applications) with all applicable regulations, laws and other applicable requirements. Designer represents that, with

respect to their applications, Designer has all the necessary expertise to create and implement safeguards that (1) anticipate dangerous

consequences of failures, (2) monitor failures and their consequences, and (3) lessen the likelihood of failures that might cause harm and

take appropriate actions. Designer agrees that prior to using or distributing any applications that include TI products, Designer will

thoroughly test such applications and the functionality of such TI products as used in such applications.

TI’s provision of technical, application or other design advice, quality characterization, reliability data or other services or information,

including, but not limited to, reference designs and materials relating to evaluation modules, (collectively, “TI Resources”) are intended to

assist designers who are developing applications that incorporate TI products; by downloading, accessing or using TI Resources in any

way, Designer (individually or, if Designer is acting on behalf of a company, Designer’s company) agrees to use any particular TI Resource

solely for this purpose and subject to the terms of this Notice.

TI’s provision of TI Resources does not expand or otherwise alter TI’s applicable published warranties or warranty disclaimers for TI

products, and no additional obligations or liabilities arise from TI providing such TI Resources. TI reserves the right to make corrections,

enhancements, improvements and other changes to its TI Resources. TI has not conducted any testing other than that specifically

described in the published documentation for a particular TI Resource.

Designer is authorized to use, copy and modify any individual TI Resource only in connection with the development of applications that

include the TI product(s) identified in such TI Resource. NO OTHER LICENSE, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY ESTOPPEL OR OTHERWISE

TO ANY OTHER TI INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT, AND NO LICENSE TO ANY TECHNOLOGY OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

RIGHT OF TI OR ANY THIRD PARTY IS GRANTED HEREIN, including but not limited to any patent right, copyright, mask work right, or

other intellectual property right relating to any combination, machine, or process in which TI products or services are used. Information

regarding or referencing third-party products or services does not constitute a license to use such products or services, or a warranty or

endorsement thereof. Use of TI Resources may require a license from a third party under the patents or other intellectual property of the

third party, or a license from TI under the patents or other intellectual property of TI.

TI RESOURCES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITH ALL FAULTS. TI DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR

REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS, TITLE, ANY EPIDEMIC FAILURE WARRANTY AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF

MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL

PROPERTY RIGHTS. TI SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR AND SHALL NOT DEFEND OR INDEMNIFY DESIGNER AGAINST ANY CLAIM,

INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY INFRINGEMENT CLAIM THAT RELATES TO OR IS BASED ON ANY COMBINATION OF

PRODUCTS EVEN IF DESCRIBED IN TI RESOURCES OR OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT SHALL TI BE LIABLE FOR ANY ACTUAL,

DIRECT, SPECIAL, COLLATERAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN

CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF TI RESOURCES OR USE THEREOF, AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER TI HAS BEEN

ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Unless TI has explicitly designated an individual product as meeting the requirements of a particular industry standard (e.g., ISO/TS 16949

and ISO 26262), TI is not responsible for any failure to meet such industry standard requirements.

Where TI specifically promotes products as facilitating functional safety or as compliant with industry functional safety standards, such

products are intended to help enable customers to design and create their own applications that meet applicable functional safety standards

and requirements. Using products in an application does not by itself establish any safety features in the application. Designers must

ensure compliance with safety-related requirements and standards applicable to their applications. Designer may not use any TI products in

life-critical medical equipment unless authorized officers of the parties have executed a special contract specifically governing such use.

Life-critical medical equipment is medical equipment where failure of such equipment would cause serious bodily injury or death (e.g., life

support, pacemakers, defibrillators, heart pumps, neurostimulators, and implantables). Such equipment includes, without limitation, all

medical devices identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Class III devices and equivalent classifications outside the U.S.

TI may expressly designate certain products as completing a particular qualification (e.g., Q100, Military Grade, or Enhanced Product).

Designers agree that it has the necessary expertise to select the product with the appropriate qualification designation for their applications

and that proper product selection is at Designers’ own risk. Designers are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory

requirements in connection with such selection.

Designer will fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages, costs, losses, and/or liabilities arising out of Designer’s non-

compliance with the terms and provisions of this Notice.
