MIC5501/2/3/4 Single 300mA LDO in 1.0mm × 1.0mm DFN Package General Description Features The MIC5501/2/3/4 is an advanced general-purpose LDO ideal for powering general-purpose portable devices. The MIC5501/2/3/4 family of products provides a highperformance 300mA LDO in an ultra-small 1mm × 1mm package. The MIC5502 and MIC5504 LDOs include an auto-discharge feature on the output that is activated when the enable pin is low. The MIC5503 and MIC5504 have an internal pull-down resistor on the enable pin that disables the output when the enable pin is left floating. This is ideal for applications where the control signal is floating during processor boot up. Ideal for battery-powered applications, the MIC5501/2/3/4 offers 2% initial accuracy, low dropout voltage (160mV at 300mA), and low ground current (typically 38µA). The MIC5501/2/3/4 can also be put into a zero-off-mode current state, drawing virtually no current when disabled. The MIC5501/2/3/4 has an operating junction temperature range of –40°C to 125°C.

MIC5501/2/3/4 Application Information Enable/Shutdown The MIC5501/2/3/4 comes with an active-high enable pin that allows the regulator to be disabled. Forcing the EN pin low disables the regulator and sends it into an off mode current state drawing virtually zero current. When disabled the MIC5502 and MIC5504 switches an internal 25Ω load on the regulator output to discharge the external capacitor. Forcing the EN pin high enables the output voltage. The MIC5501 and MIC5502 enable pin uses CMOS technology and the EN pin cannot be left floating; a floating EN pin may cause an indeterminate state on the output. The MIC5503 and MIC5504 have an internal pulldown resistor on the enable pin to disable the output when the enable pin is floating. MIC5501/2/3/4 are low-noise 300mA LDOs. The MIC5502 and MIC5504 include an auto-discharge circuit that is switched on when the regulator is disabled through the enable (EN) pin. The MIC5503 and MIC5504 have an internal pull-down resistor on the EN pin to ensure the output is disabled if the control signal is tristated. The MIC5501/2/3/4 regulator is fully protected from damage due to fault conditions, offering linear current limiting and thermal shutdown. Input Capacitor The MIC5501/2/3/4 is a high-performance, highbandwidth device. An input capacitor of 1µF is required from the input to ground to provide stability. Low-ESR ceramic capacitors provide optimal performance at a minimum of space. Additional high-frequency capacitors, such as small-valued NPO dielectric-type capacitors, help filter out high-frequency noise and are good practice in any RF-based circuit. X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended for the input capacitor. Y5V dielectrics lose most of their capacitance over temperature and are therefore, not recommended. Thermal Considerations The MIC5501/2/3/4 is designed to provide 300mA of continuous current in a very small package. Maximum ambient operating temperature can be calculated based on the output current and the voltage drop across the part. For example if the input voltage is 3.6V, the output voltage is 2.8V, and the output current = 300mA. The actual power dissipation of the regulator circuit can be determined using Equation 1: Output Capacitor The MIC5501/2/3/4 requires an output capacitor of 1µF or greater to maintain stability. The design is optimized for use with low-ESR ceramic chip capacitors. High ESR capacitors are not recommended because they may cause high-frequency oscillation. The output capacitor can be increased, but performance has been optimized for a 1µF ceramic output capacitor and does not improve significantly with larger capacitance. X7R/X5R dielectric-type ceramic capacitors are recommended because of their temperature performance. X7R-type capacitors change capacitance by 15% over their operating temperature range and are the most stable type of ceramic capacitors. Z5U and Y5V dielectric capacitors change value by as much as 50% and 60%, respectively, over their operating temperature ranges. To use a ceramic chip capacitor with Y5V dielectric, the value must be much higher than an X7R ceramic capacitor to ensure the same minimum capacitance over the equivalent operating temperature range. PD = (VIN – VOUT1) I OUT + VIN IGND Because this device is CMOS and the ground current is typically <100µA over the load range, the power dissipation contributed by the ground current is < 1% and can be ignored for this calculation: PD = (3.6V – 2.8V) × 300mA PD = 0.240W To determine the maximum ambient operating temperature of the package, use the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the device and Equation 2: TJ(max) − TA PD(max) = θ JA No-Load Stability Unlike many other voltage regulators, the MIC5501/2/3/4 remains stable and in regulation with no load. This is especially important in CMOS RAM keep-alive applications. April 20, 2015 Eq. 1 Eq. 2 TJ(max) = 125°C, the maximum junction temperature of the die, θJA thermal resistance = 250°C/W for the DFN package. 9 Revision 2.3 Micrel, Inc. MIC5501/2/3/4 Substituting PD for PD(max) and solving for the ambient operating temperature will give the maximum operating conditions for the regulator circuit. The junction-toambient thermal resistance for the minimum footprint is 250°C/W. The maximum power dissipation must not be exceeded for proper operation. For example, when operating the MIC5501-MYMT at an input voltage of 3.6V and 300mA load with a minimum footprint layout, the maximum ambient operating temperature TA can be determined as follows: 0.240W = (125°C – TA)/(250°C/W) TA = 65°C Therefore, the maximum ambient operating temperature allowed in a 1mm × 1mm DFN package is 65°C.
