MIC2215
Triple High PSRR, Low Noise µCap LDO
General Description
Features
The MIC2215 is a high performance, triple LDO voltage
regulator, with each regulator capable of providing 250mA
continuous output current.
• Input voltage range: +2.25V to +5.5V
• 70dB PSRR
• Stable with ceramic output capacitor
• High output accuracy:
– ±1.0% initial accuracy
– ±2.0% over temperature
• Low dropout voltage of 100mV@150mA
• Low quiescent current: 110µA per regulator
• Fast turn-on time: 30µs
Ideal for battery operated applications, the MIC2215 offers
1%initialaccuracy, extremelylowdropoutvoltage(100mV@
150mA), and low ground current at light load (typically 110µA
per regulator). Equipped with a noise bypass pin and featur-
ing very high power supply ripple rejection (PSRR) of up to
80dB, the MIC2215 provides the lowest noise and highest
efficiency solution for RF applications in portable electronics
such as cellular phones and wireless LAN applications.
• Zero off-mode current
• Thermal shutdown protection
• Current-limit protection
Equipped with TTL logic-compatible enable pins, each of the
regulators in the MIC2215 can be put into a zero current off
mode where the supply current is much less than 1µA when
all the regulators are disabled. The MIC2215 is a µCap
design, which enables a stable output with small ceramic
output capacitors, reducing both cost and required board
space for output bypassing.
