MIC5247
150mA Low-Voltage µCap Linear Regulator
Preliminary Information
General Description
Features
The MIC5247 is an efficient, precise low voltage CMOS
voltage regulator optimized for ultra-low-noise applications.
TheMIC5247offersbetterthan1%initialaccuracy,and85µA
constant ground current over load (typically 85µA). The
MIC5247 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 noise
• Low voltage outputs
• Load independent, ultralow ground current: 85µA
• 150mA output current
• Current limiting
• Thermal Shutdown
• Tight load and line regulation
• “Zero” off-mode current
• Stability with low-ESR capacitors
• Fast transient response
• Logic-controlled enable input
Designed specifically for hand-held and battery-powered
devices,theMIC5247providesalogiccompatibleenablepin.
When disabled, power consumption drops nearly to zero.
Applications
• Cellular phones and pagers
• Cellular accessories
The MIC5247 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
