MIC5311 LowQ™ Mode Dual 300mA LDO General Description Features The MIC5311 is a high performance, dual µCap low dropout regulator offering ultra-low operating current and a second, even lower operating current mode, LowQ™ mode, reducing operating current by 75%. Each regulator can source up to 300mA of output current maximum. Ideal for battery operated applications, the MIC5311 offers 1% accuracy, extremely low dropout voltage (60mV @ 150mA), and low ground current (typically 28µA total). When put into LowQ™ mode, the internal current draw drops down to 7µA total. The MIC5311 also comes equipped with a TTL logic compatible enable pin that allows the part to be put into a zero-offmode current state, drawing no current when disabled. The MIC5311 is a µCap design, operating with very small ceramic output capacitors for stability, reducing required board space and component cost. The MIC5311 is available in fixed output voltages in the 3mm x 3mm MLF-10 leadless package.

Functional Description The MIC5311 is a high performance, low quiescent current power management IC consisting of two µCap low dropout regulators with a LowQ™ mode featuring lower operating current. Both regulators are capable of sourcing 300mA. Enable 1 and 2 The enable inputs allow for logic control of both output voltages with individual enable inputs. The enable input is active high, requiring 1.0V for guaranteed operation. The enable input is CMOS logic and cannot be left floating. LowQ™ Mode The LowQ™ pin is logic level low, requiring <0.2V to enter the LowQ™ mode. The LowQ™ pin cannot be left floating. Features of the LowQ™ mode include lower total quiescent current of typically 7uA. Input Capacitor Good bypassing is recommended from input to ground to help improve AC performance. A 1µF capacitor or greater located close to the IC is recommended. Larger load currents may require larger capacitor values. Bypass Capacitor The internal reference voltage of the MIC5311 can be bypassed with a capacitor to ground to reduce output noise and increase input ripple rejection (PSRR). A quick-start feature allows for quick turn-on of the output voltage. The recommended nominal bypass capacitor is 0.01µF, but an increase will result in longer turn on times ton. Output Capacitor Each regulator output requires a 2.2µF ceramic output capacitor for stability. The output capacitor value can be increased to improve transient response, but performance has been optimized for a 2.2µF ceramic type output capacitor. 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% to 60% respectively over their operating temperature ranges. To use a ceramic chip capacitor with Y5V dielectric, the value must be much higher than a X7R ceramic capacitor to ensure the same minimum capacitance over the equivalent operating temperature range. MIC5311 Thermal Considerations The MIC5311 is designed to provide 300mA of continuous current per channel in a very small MLF package. Maximum power dissipation can be calculated based on the output current and the voltage drop across the part. To determine the maximum power dissipation of the package, use the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the device and the following basic equation: PD (max) = (TJ (max) - TA) /θJA TJ (max) is the maximum junction temperature of the die, 125°C, and TA is the ambient operating temperature. θJA is layout dependent; Table 1 shows examples of the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the MIC5311. Package 3x3 MLF™-10 θJA Recommended Minimum Footprint 63°C/W θJC 2°C/W Table 1. MLF™ Thermal Resistance The actual power dissipation of the regulator circuit can be determined using the equation: PDTOTAL = PD LDO1 + PD LDO2 PD LDO1 = (VIN-VOUT1) x IOUT1 PD LDO2 = (VIN-VOUT2) x IOUT2 Substituting PD(max) for PD and solving for the operating conditions that are critical to the application will give the maximum operating conditions for the regulator circuit. For example, when operating the MIC5311 at 60°C with a minimum footprint layout, the maximum load currents can be calculated as follows: PD (max) = (TJ (max) - TA) /θJA PD (max) = (125°C - 60°C) / 63°C/W PD (max) = 1.03W The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the minimum footprint is 63°C/W, from Table 1. The maximum power dissipation must not be exceeded for proper operation. Using a lithium-ion battery as the supply voltage of 4.2V, 1.8VOUT/150mA for channel 1 and 2.8VOUT/100mA for channel 2, power dissipation can be calculated as follows: PD LDO1 = (VIN-VOUT1) x IOUT1 PD LDO1 = (4.2V-1.8V) x 150mA PD LDO1 = 360mW PD LDO2 = (VIN-VOUT2) x IOUT2 PD LDO1 = (4.2V-2.8V) x 100mA PD LDO1 = 140mW March 2006 9 M9999-032706 (408) 955-1690 Micrel, Inc. MIC5311 TA(max) = TJ(max) – (PD x θJA) TA(max) = 125°C – (500mW x 63°C/W) TA(max) = 93.5°C PDTOTAL = PD LDO1 + PD LDO2 PDTOTAL = 360mW + 140mW PDTOTAL = 500mW The calculation shows that we are well below the maximum allowable power dissipation of 1.03W for a 60° ambient temperature. After the maximum power dissipation has been calculated, it is always a good idea to calculate the maximum ambient temperature for a 125° junction temperature. Calculating maximum ambient temperature as follows: March 2006 For a full discussion of heat sinking and thermal effects on voltage regulators, refer to the “Regulator Thermals” section of Micrel’s Designing with Low-Dropout Voltage Regulators handbook.
