MIC5255
150 mA Low Noise µCap CMOS LDO
Features
General Description
• Input Voltage Range: 2.7V to 6.0V
• Thin SOT Package: 1 mm Height SOT-23-5
• Ultra-Low Output Noise: 30 µVRMS
• Stability with Ceramic Output Capacitors
• Ultra-Low Dropout: 135 mV @ 150 mA
• High output accuracy:
The MIC5255 is an efficient, precise CMOS voltage
regulator optimized for ultra-low-noise applications. It
offers 1% initial accuracy, extremely-low dropout
voltage (135 mV at 150 mA) and low ground current
(typically 117 µA at full load). The MIC5255 provides a
very low noise output, ideal for RF applications where
a clean voltage source is required. A noise bypass pin
is also available for further reduction of output noise.
- 1.0% Initial Accuracy
- 2.0% Over Temperature
Designed specifically for handheld and battery
powered devices, the MIC5255 provides
TTL-logic-compatible enable pin. When disabled,
power consumption drops nearly to zero.
a
• Low Quiescent Current: 90 µA
• Tight Load and Line Regulation
• TTL-Logic-Controlled Enable Input
• “Zero” Off-Mode Current
The MIC5255 also works with low-ESR ceramic
capacitors, reducing the amount of board space
necessary for power applications, critical in handheld
wireless devices.
• Thermal Shutdown and Current-Limit Protection
Applications
• Cellular Telephones and Pagers
Key features include current limit, thermal shutdown,
faster transient response, and an active clamp to speed
up device turn-off. Available in the 6-pin 2 mm × 2 mm
VDFN package, the SOT-23-5 package and the Thin
SOT-23-5, which offers the same footprint as the
standard SOT-23-5, but is only 1 mm tall. The MIC5255
offers a range of output voltages.
