A logic high signal sets the output to the higher voltage; while a logic low signal selects the lower output voltage. The voltage select pin cannot be left floating; a floating pin may cause an indeterminate state on the output. Application Information The MIC5304 is a low quiescent current voltage selectable LDO. The regulator is capable of sourcing 150mA of output current with a low quiescent current of 24µA. A logic input signal selects the output between two preset voltages. The MIC5304 regulator is fully protected from damage due to fault conditions, offering linear current limiting and thermal shutdown. Thermal Considerations The MIC5304 is designed to provide 150mA 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 3.15V with VSEL set high and 1.85V with VSEL low, and the output current = 150mA. The lower output voltage should be used for power dissipation calculations as this is the worst case situation. The actual power dissipation of the regulator circuit can be determined using the equation: PD = (VIN – VOUT) IOUT + 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 –1.85V) × 150mA PD = 0.2625W To determine the maximum ambient operating temperature of the package, use the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the device and the following basic equation: Input Capacitor The MIC5304 is a high-performance, high bandwidth device. Therefore, it requires a well bypassed input supply for optimal performance. 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. Output Capacitor The MIC5304 requires an output capacitor of 1µF or greater to maintain stability. The design is optimized for use with lowESR 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. ⎛ TJ(MAX) − TA PD(MAX) = ⎜⎜ θ JA ⎝ TJ(max) = 125°C, and the maximum junction temperature of the die, θJA, thermal resistance = 92°C/W. 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 92°C/W. The maximum power dissipation must not be exceeded for proper operation. For example, when operating the MIC5304-XDYMT at an input voltage of 3.6V and 150mA load with a minimum footprint layout, the maximum ambient operating temperature TA can be determined as follows: 0.2625W = (125°C – TA)/(92°C/W) TA = 100°C Therefore, a 3.15/1.85V application with a 150mA output current can accept an ambient operating temperature of 100°C in a 1.6mm x 1.6mm MLF® package.

This information can be found on Micrel's website at: http://www.micrel.com/_PDF/other/LDOBk_ds.pdf Enable/Shutdown The MIC5304 is provided with an active-high enable pin that allows the regulator to be enabled. Forcing the enable pin low disables the regulator and sends it into a “zero” offmode-current state. In this state, current consumed by the regulator goes nearly to zero. 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.
