FFF CompatibilityMatches the TO-263-5 package and exact pin assignment: Pin 1 (Shutdown), Pin 2 (VIN), Pin 3 (GND/Tab), Pin 4 (VOUT), Pin 5 (SENSE).Housed in the identical TO-263-5 (DDPAK) surface mount package with the same physical dimensions and land pattern.Provides fixed 5.0V output, 1.5A load current capacity, and shares the same 7V maximum input voltage ceiling with improved dropout and Iq.Pin 5 is an Error Flag (FLG) output, whereas the original LP3965 has a SENSE input. Pin 5 must be left floating or modified on the PCB layout.Housed in the standard TO-263-5 package with identical physical mounting footprint.Meets the 5.0V fixed output and 1.5A current requirements with similar 0.6V max dropout.
AI Summary

LP3965ES-5.0 NOPB by Texas Instruments: Linear Voltage Regulator IC Positive Fixed 1 Output 1.5A TO-263 (DDPAK-5).

The LP3855ES-5.0/NOPB is the direct manufacturer-recommended drop-in sibling from the same Texas Instruments family. It is active, pin-compatible, matches the exact package, and offers superior electrical efficiency.

  • Direct pin-to-pin compatible drop-in replacement from the same manufacturer (Texas Instruments)
  • Lower dropout voltage: 0.38V max vs 0.55V max on the LP3965
  • Lower quiescent supply current: 10mA max vs 15mA max on the LP3965

The MIC29151-5.0WU is an active, robust industrial alternative from Microchip. However, Pin 5 functions as an open-collector Error Flag instead of a Sense pin, meaning layout modification is required to prevent Pin 5 from shorting VOUT to GND.

  • Significantly higher maximum input voltage capability (26V vs 7V)
  • Robust protection features including reverse polarity and transient voltage protection
  • Active lifecycle status with excellent distributor stock availability
  • Requires PCB layout modification to disconnect Pin 5 from the VOUT trace to avoid short-circuiting the output when the flag activates.
  • Slightly higher dropout voltage (0.6V vs 0.55V) at full 1.5A load.

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.

  1. All your BOM, at once

    Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.

  2. Hear about problems before they hit production

    Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.

  3. Qualified replacements in minutes, not days

    Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. The Texas Instruments LP3965ES-5.0 NOPB is marked obsolete, so the manufacturer has discontinued it and any remaining supply is limited to distributor stock. The qualified second sources on this page are active parts you can design in today.
