MIC5245
150mA µCap CMOS LDO Regulator
Preliminary Information
General Description
Features
The MIC5245 is an efficient, precise CMOS voltage regulator
optimized for ultra-low-noise applications. The MIC5245 of-
fers better than 1% initial accuracy, extremely low dropout
voltage (typically 150mV at 150mA) and constant ground
current over load (typically 100µA). The MIC5245 provides a
very low noise output, ideal for RF applications where quiet
voltage sources are required. A noise bypass pin is also
available for further reduction of output noise.
• Ultralow dropout—100mV @ 100mA
• Ultralow noise—30µV(rms)
• Stability with tantalum or ceramic capacitors
• Load independent, ultralow ground current
• 150mA output current
• Current limiting
• Thermal Shutdown
• Tight load and line regulation
• “Zero” off-mode current
• Fast transient response
Designed specifically for hand-held and battery-powered
devices, the MIC5245 provides a TTL logic compatible en-
able pin. When disabled, power consumption drops nearly to
zero.
• TTL-Logic-controlled enable input
Applications
• Cellular phones and pagers
• Cellular accessories
• Battery-powered equipment
The MIC5245 also works with low-ESR ceramic capacitors,
reducing the amount of board space necessary for power
applications, critical in hand-held wireless devices.
Key features include current limit, thermal shutdown, a push-
pull output for faster transient response, and an active clamp
tospeedupdeviceturnoff.AvailableintheIttyBitty™SOT-23-5
and power MSO-8 packages, the MIC5245 also offers a
range of fixed output voltages.
• Laptop, notebook, and palmtop computers
• PCMCIA V and V regulation/switching
• Consumer/personal electronics
• SMPS post-regulator/dc-to-dc modules
• High-efficiency linear power supplies
