Micrel, Inc.
MIC2920A/29201/29202/29204
400mA Low-Dropout Voltage Regulator
General Description
Features
The MIC2920A family are “bulletproof,” efficient voltage regulators with very low dropout voltage (typically 40mV at light
loads and 370mV at 250mA), and very low quiescent current
(140µA typical). The quiescent current of the MIC2920A increases only slightly in dropout, prolonging battery life. Key
MIC2920A features include protection against reversed battery, fold-back current limiting, and automotive “load dump”
protection (60V positive transient).

The MIC2920 is available in several configurations. The
MIC2920A-x.x devices are three pin fixed voltage regulators
available in 3.3V, 4.85V, 5V, and 12V outputs. The MIC29201
is a fixed regulator offering a logic compatible ON/OFF (shutdown) input and an error flag output. This flag may also be
used as a power-on reset signal. A logic-compatible shutdown
input is provided on the adjustable MIC29202 which allows
the regulator to be switched on and off. The MIC29204 8-pin
SOIC adjustable regulator includes both shutdown and error
flag pins and may be pin-strapped for 5V output or programmed
from 1.24V to 26V using two external resistors.

Devices are ESD protected; however, handling precautions are recommended.
Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. Electrical specifications do not apply when
operating the device outside of its rated operating conditions. The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum
junction temperature, TJ (MAX), the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, θJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable
power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated using: P(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. The junction to ambient thermal
resistance of the MIC29204BM is 160°C/W mounted on a PC board.
Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.
Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects
are covered by the thermal regulation specification.
Dropout Voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100mV below its nominal value measured at
1V differential. At low values of programmed output voltage, the minimum input supply voltage of 4.3V over temperature must be taken into
account. The MIC2920A operates down to 2V of input at reduced output current at 25°C.
Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the supply is the sum of the load current plus the ground
pin current.
The MIC2920A features fold-back current limiting. The short circuit (VOUT = 0V) current limit is less than the maximum current with normal
output voltage.
Thermal regulation is defined as the change in output voltage at a time T after a change in power dissipation is applied, excluding load or
line regulation effects. Specifications are for a 200mA load pulse at VIN = 20V (a 4W pulse) for T = 10ms.
VREF ≤ VOUT ≤ (VIN – 1 V), 4.3V ≤ VIN ≤ 26V, 1 mA < IL ≤400 mA, TJ ≤ TJ MAX.
Comparator thresholds are expressed in terms of a voltage differential at the Adjust terminal below the nominal reference voltage measured
at 6V input. To express these thresholds in terms of output voltage change, multiply by the error amplifier gain = VOUT /VREF = (R1 + R2)/R2.
For example, at a programmed output voltage of 5V, the Error output is guaranteed to go low when the output drops by 95 mV x 5V/1.235 V
= 384 mV. Thresholds remain constant as a percent of VOUT as VOUT is varied, with the dropout warning occurring at typically 5% below
nominal, 7.7% guaranteed.
VSHUTDOWN ≥ 2V, VIN ≤ 26V,VOUT = 0, with Adjust pin tied to 5V Tap or to the R1, R2 junction (see Figure 3) with R1 ≥ 150kΩ.
When used in dual supply systems where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output voltage must be diode clamped to
ground.
Maximum positive supply voltage of 60V must be of limited duration (< 100ms) and duty cycle ( ≤ 1%). The maximum continuous supply
voltage is 26V.

Micrel, Inc.
Applications Information
or some other supply voltage. In determining a value for this
resistor, note that while the output is rated to sink 250µA, this
sink current adds to battery drain in a low battery condition.
Suggested values range from 100k to 1MΩ. The resistor is
not required if this output is unused.
External Capacitors
A 10µF (or greater) capacitor is required between the MIC2920A
output and ground to prevent oscillations due to instability. Most
types of tantalum or aluminum electrolytics will be adequate;
film types will work, but are costly and therefore not recommended. Many aluminum electrolytics have electrolytes that
freeze at about –30°C, so solid tantalums are recommended
for operation below –25°C. The important parameters of the
capacitor are an effective series resistance of about 5Ω or
less and a resonant frequency above 500kHz. The value of
this capacitor may be increased without limit.
Programming the Output Voltage
(MIC29202/29204)
The MIC29202/29204 may be programmed for any output
voltage between its 1.235V reference and its 26V maximum rating, using an external pair of resistors, as shown in
Figure 3.
The complete equation for the output voltage is
At lower values of output current, less output capacitance is
required for output stability. The capacitor can be reduced
to 2.2µF for current below 10mA or 1µF for currents below
1mA. Adjusting the MIC29202/29204 to voltages below 5V
runs the error amplifier at lower gains so that more output capacitance is needed. For the worst-case situation of a 500mA
load at 1.23V output (Output shorted to Adjust) a 47µF (or
greater) capacitor should be used.
VOUT = VREF × { 1 + R1/R2 } – |IFB| R1
where VREF is the nominal 1.235 reference voltage and IFB is
the Adjust pin bias current, nominally 20nA. The minimum recommended load current of 1µA forces an upper limit of 1.2MΩ
on the value of R2, if the regulator must work with no load (a
condition often found in CMOS in standby), IFB will produce
a –2% typical error in VOUT which may be eliminated at room
temperature by trimming R1. For better accuracy, choosing R2
= 100k reduces this error to 0.17% while increasing the resistor
program current to 12µA. Since the MIC29202/29204 typically
draws 110µA at no load with SHUTDOWN open-circuited, this
is a negligible addition. The MIC29204 may be pin-strapped
for 5V using the internal voltage divider by tying Pin 1 (output)
to Pin 2 (sense) and Pin 7 (Adjust) to Pin 6 (V Tap).
The MIC2920A/29201 will remain in regulation with a minimum load of 1mA. When setting the output voltage of the
MIC29202/29204 versions with external resistors, the current
through these resistors may be included as a portion of the
minimum load.
A 0.1µF capacitor should be placed from the MIC2920A input
to ground if there is more than 10 inches of wire between
the input and the AC filter capacitor or if a battery is used as
the input.
Configuring the MIC29201-3.3BM
For the MIC29201-3.3BM, the output (Pin 1) and sense pin
(pin 2), must be connected to ensure proper operation. They
are not connected internally.
Error Detection Comparator Output
(MIC29201/MIC29204)
Reducing Output Noise
A logic low output will be produced by the comparator whenever the MIC29201/29204 output falls out of regulation by
more than approximately 5%. This figure is the comparator’s
built-in offset of about 75mV divided by the 1.235V reference
voltage. (Refer to the block diagram on Page 1). This trip level
remains “5% below normal” regardless of the programmed
output voltage of the MIC29201/29204. For example, the
error flag trip level is typically 4.75V for a 5V output or 11.4V
for a 12V output. The out of regulation condition may be due
either to low input voltage, extremely high input voltage, current limiting, or thermal limiting.
In reference applications it may be advantageous to reduce
the AC noise present at the output. One method is to reduce
the regulator bandwidth by increasing the size of the output
capacitor. This is relatively inefficient, as increasing the capaci4.75V

ERROR
Figure 1 is a timing diagram depicting the ERROR signal and
the regulated output voltage as the MIC29201/29204 input is
ramped up and down. The ERROR signal becomes valid (low)
at about 1.3V input. It goes high at about 5V input (the input
voltage at which VOUT = 4.75). Since the MIC29201/29204’s
dropout voltage is load-dependent (see curve in Typical Performance Characteristics), the input voltage trip point (about
5V) will vary with the load current. The output voltage trip point
(approximately 4.75V) does not vary with load.

Automotive Applications
tor from 1µF to 220µF only decreases the noise from 430µV
to 160µVRMS for a 100kHz bandwidth at 5V output. Noise can
be reduced fourfold by a bypass capacitor across R1, since it
reduces the high frequency gain from 4 to unity. Pick

C BYPASS =
2 πR1 • 200 Hz
or about 0.01µF. When doing this, the output capacitor must
be increased to 10µF to maintain stability. These changes reduce the output noise from 430µV to 100µV rms for a 100kHz
bandwidth at 5V output. With the bypass capacitor added,
noise no longer scales with output voltage so that improvements are more dramatic at higher output voltages.
The MIC2920A is ideally suited for automotive applications
for a variety of reasons. It will operate over a wide range of
input voltages with very low dropout voltages (40mV at light
loads), and very low quiescent currents (100µA typical). These
features are necessary for use in battery powered systems,
such as automobiles. It is a “bulletproof” device with the ability to survive both reverse battery (negative transients up to
20V below ground), and load dump (positive transients up to
60V) conditions. A wide operating temperature range with low
temperature coefficients is yet another reason to use these
versatile regulators in automotive designs.
