MICREL MIC5301

MIC5301
Single, 150mA µCap ULDO™
General Description
Features
The MIC5301 is a high performance, single output
ultra low LDO (ULDO™) regulator, offering low total
output noise. The MIC5301 is capable of sourcing
150mA output current and offers high PSRR and low
output noise, making it an ideal solution for RF
applications.
For battery operated applications, the MIC5301 offers
2% accuracy, extremely low dropout voltage (40mV @
150mA), and low ground current (typically 85µA total).
The MIC5301 can also be put into a zero-off-mode
current state, drawing no current when disabled.
The MIC5301 is available in the 1.6mm x 1.6mm Thin
MLF® package, occupying only 2.56mm2 of PCB area,
a 36% reduction in board area compared to SC-70
and 2mm x 2mm MLF® packages.
The MIC5301 has an operating junction temperature
range of –40°C to +125°C and is available in fixed and
adjustable output voltages in lead-free (RoHS
compliant) Thin MLF® and Thin SOT-23-5 packages.

Notes:
1. Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
2. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
3. The maximum allowable power dissipation of any TA (ambient temperature) is PD(max) = (TJ(max) – TA) / θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable
power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown.
4. Specification for packaged product only.
5. Dropout voltage is defined as the input-to-output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its nominal value measured at 1V
differential.

MIC5301
Applications Information
PSRR. Turn-on time increases slightly with respect to
bypass capacitance. A unique, quick-start circuit
allows the MIC5301 to drive a large capacitor on the
bypass pin without significantly slowing turn-on time.
Refer to the Typical Characteristics section for
performance with different bypass capacitors.
Enable/Shutdown
The MIC5301 comes with an active-high enable pin
that allows the regulator to be disabled. Forcing the
enable pin low disables the regulator and sends it into
a “zero” off-mode-current state. In this state, current
consumed by the regulator goes nearly to zero.
Forcing the enable pin high enables the output
voltage. The active-high enable pin uses CMOS
technology and the enable pin cannot be left floating;
a floating enable pin may cause an indeterminate
state on the output.
No-Load Stability
Unlike many other voltage regulators, the MIC5301
will remain stable and in regulation with no load. This
is especially important in CMOS RAM keep-alive
applications.
Input Capacitor
The MIC5301 is a high-performance, high bandwidth
device. Therefore, it requires a well-bypassed input
supply for optimal performance. A 1µF capacitor is
required from the input to ground to provide stability.
Low-ESR ceramic capacitors provide optimal
performance at a minimum of space. Additional highfrequency capacitors, such as small-valued NPO
dielectric-type capacitors, help filter out highfrequency noise and are good practice in any RFbased circuit.
Adjustable Regulator Application
Adjustable regulators use the ratio of two resistors to
multiply the reference voltage to produce the desired
output voltage. The MIC5301 can be adjusted from
1.25V to 5.5V by using two external resistors (Figure
1). The resistors set the output voltage based on the
following equation:
R1 ⎞
⎛
VOUT = VREF ⎜1 +
⎟
R2 ⎠
⎝
VREF = 1.25V
Output Capacitor
The MIC5301 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 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.

Thermal Considerations
The MIC5301 is designed to provide 150mA of
continuous current. Maximum ambient operating
temperature can be calculated based on the output
current and the voltage drop across the part. Given
that the input voltage is 5.0V, the output voltage is
2.8V and the output current = 150mA.
The actual power dissipation of the regulator circuit
can be determined using the equation:
PD = (VIN – VOUT) IOUT + VIN IGND
Bypass Capacitor
A capacitor can be placed from the noise bypass pin
to ground to reduce output voltage noise. The
capacitor bypasses the internal reference. A 0.1µF
capacitor is recommended for applications that require
low-noise outputs. The bypass capacitor can be
increased, further reducing noise and improving
April 2008
VOUT
VIN VOUT
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.

To determine the maximum ambient operating
temperature of the package, use the junction-toambient thermal resistance of the device and the
following basic equation:
PD(MAX) =
⎛
⎝
The maximum power dissipation must not be
exceeded for proper operation.
For example, when operating the MIC5301-2.8YML at
an input voltage of 5V and 150mA load with a
minimum footprint layout, the maximum ambient
operating temperature TA can be determined as
follows:
TJ(MAX) - TA
JA
0.33W = (125°C – TA)/(100°C/W)
TJ(max) = 125°C, the maximum junction temperature of
the die θJA thermal resistance = 100°C/W.
TA=92°C
The table below shows junction-to-ambient thermal
resistance for the MIC5301 in the 6-pin 1.6mm x
1.6mm MLF® package.

Therefore, a 2.8V application with 150mA of output

Thermal Resistance
Substituting PD for PD(max) and solving for the ambient
operating temperature will give the maximum
operating conditions for the regulator circuit. The
junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the
minimum footprint is 100°C/W.
