Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the LP2987IMM-3.3 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Fixed output voltage of 3.3V
  • Output current rating of 200mA
  • Maximum input voltage of 16V
  • Dropout voltage of 0.35V @ 200mA
  • Quiescent current of 120 µA
  • PSRR of 65dB (1kHz)
  • 8-VSSOP package configuration
  • Operating temperature range of -40°C ~ 125°C
  • Identical protection features (Over Current, Over Temperature, Short Circuit)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent to the LP2987IMM-3.3. Selection should be based on the following criteria:

Product Status: Parts with Active status (LP2987IMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2986AIMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2986IMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2987IMMX-3.3/NOPB, LP2988AIMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2988IMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2988IMMX-3.3/NOPB) are preferred over the obsolete main part number for new designs and production continuity.

RoHS Compliance: For applications requiring RoHS3 compliance, select from LP2986AIMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2987IMMX-3.3/NOPB, LP2988AIMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2988IMM-3.3/NOPB, or LP2988IMMX-3.3/NOPB.

Packaging Format: Texas Instruments parts with the "X" suffix (LP2987IMMX-3.3/NOPB, LP2988IMMX-3.3/NOPB) are supplied in Tape & Reel format, suitable for automated assembly. National Semiconductor parts (LP2987IMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2986IMM-3.3/NOPB) are available in bulk or tape & reel configurations.

Inventory Availability: LP2988IMMX-3.3/NOPB offers the highest inventory level at 4,420 pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use LP2986AIMM-3.3/NOPB as a direct replacement for LP2987IMM-3.3?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (3.3V output, 200mA current, 0.35V dropout voltage, 65dB PSRR) and the same 8-VSSOP package. The LP2986 variant is actively produced and RoHS3 compliant, making it suitable for direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference between LP2987IMMX-3.3/NOPB and LP2987IMM-3.3/NOPB?

A: Both parts are electrically identical with the same 3.3V output and 200mA rating. The primary difference is packaging format: the "X" suffix indicates Tape & Reel packaging optimized for automated assembly, while the non-X variant is available in bulk. Both are RoHS3 compliant.

Q: Are LP2988 series parts compatible with LP2987 designs?

A: Yes. LP2988AIMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2988IMM-3.3/NOPB, and LP2988IMMX-3.3/NOPB maintain all critical electrical parameters (output voltage, current rating, dropout voltage, PSRR, protection features) and use the same 8-VSSOP package. They are parametric equivalents suitable for direct substitution.

Q: Does the 8-VSSOP package differ from 8-TSSOP or 8-MSOP?

A: The 8-VSSOP, 8-TSSOP, and 8-MSOP designations refer to the same physical package with dimensions of 0.118" width and 3.00mm height. These are equivalent package formats for this product category.

Q: Which substitute part should I select for new production?

A: For new designs, select an active-status part with RoHS3 compliance. LP2988IMMX-3.3/NOPB is recommended due to its active status, RoHS3 compliance, Tape & Reel packaging for automated assembly, and high inventory availability.

Q: Are National Semiconductor parts (LP2987IMM-3.3/NOPB, LP2986IMM-3.3/NOPB) still available?

A: Yes, both National Semiconductor parts are listed as active with available inventory (2,654 and 1,814 pieces respectively). However, Texas Instruments variants are preferred for long-term supply assurance and RoHS compliance.
