The LP2951-50D is a single output 100mA 5V wide Vin range RESET bipolar low-dropout Voltage Regulator that can accommodate a wide input supply-voltage range of up to 30V. The easy-to-use, 8-pin LP2951 is available in fixed-output voltages of 5V. However is able to output either a fixed or adjustable output from the same device. By tying the OUTPUT and SENSE pins together and the FEEDBACK and VTAP pins together, the LP2951 outputs a fixed 5V. Alternatively, by leaving the SENSE and VTAP pins open and connecting FEEDBACK to an external resistor divider, the output can be set to any value between 1.235 to 30V.
