MIC5219
500mA-Peak Output LDO Regulator
General Description
Features
The MIC5219 is an efficient linear voltage regulator with high
peak output current capability, very-low-dropout voltage, and
better than 1% output voltage accuracy. Dropout is typically
10mV at light loads and less than 500mV at full load.
• 500mA output current capability
SOT-23-5 package - 500mA peak
2mm×2mm MLF® package - 500mA continuous
2mm×2mm Thin MLF® package - 500mA
continuous
MSOP-8 package - 500mA continuous
• Low 500mV maximum dropout voltage at full load
• Extremely tight load and line regulation
• Tiny SOT-23-5 and MM8™ power MSOP-8 package
• Ultra-low-noise output
• Low temperature coefficient
• Current and thermal limiting
• Reversed-battery protection
• CMOS/TTL-compatible enable/shutdown control
• Near-zero shutdown current
The MIC5219 is designed to provide a peak output current for
start-up conditions where higher inrush current is demanded.
It features a 500mA peak output rating. Continuous output
current is limited only by package and layout.
The MIC5219 can be enabled or shut down by a CMOS or
TTL compatible signal. When disabled, power consumption
drops nearly to zero. Dropout ground current is minimized to
help prolong battery life. Other key features include reversedbattery protection, current limiting, overtemperature shutdown,
and low noise performance with an ultra-low-noise option.
The MIC5219 is available in adjustable or fixed output voltages in the space-saving 6-pin (2mm × 2mm) MLF®, 6-pin
(2mm × 2mm) Thin MLF® SOT‑23‑5 and MM8® 8‑pin power
MSOP packages. For higher power requirements see the
MIC5209 or MIC5237.

Notes:
1. 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 operating ratings. 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: 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. See Table 1 and the “Thermal Considerations” section for details.
2. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
3. Specification for packaged product only.
4. Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.
5. Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Parts are tested for load regulation in the load range
from 100µA to 500mA. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are covered by the thermal regulation specification.
6. 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.
7. Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current plus pass transistor base current. The total current drawn from the supply is the sum of the load
current plus the ground pin current.
8. VEN is the voltage externally applied to devices with the EN (enable) input pin.
9. 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 500mA load pulse at VIN = 12V for t = 10ms.
10. CBYP is an optional, external bypass capacitor connected to devices with a BYP (bypass) or ADJ (adjust) pin.

Applications Information
Thermal Considerations
The MIC5219 is designed to provide 200mA of continuous
current in two very small profile packages. 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 thermal resistance,
junction-to-ambient, of the device and the following basic
equation.
The MIC5219 is designed for 150mA to 200mA output current
applications where a high current spike (500mA) is needed for
short, start-up conditions. Basic application of the device will
be discussed initially followed by a more detailed discussion
of higher current applications.
Enable/Shutdown
Forcing EN (enable/shutdown) high (>2V) enables the
regulator. EN is compatible with CMOS logic. If the enable/
shutdown feature is not required, connect EN to IN (supply
input). See Figure 5.
P D (max ) =
J
A
θ JA
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 thermal
resistance, junction-to-ambient, for the MIC5219.
Input Capacitor
A 1µF capacitor should be placed from IN to GND 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.
Package
Output Capacitor
An output capacitor is required between OUT and GND to
prevent oscillation. The minimum size of the output capacitor
is dependent upon whether a reference bypass capacitor is
used. 1µF minimum is recommended when CBYP is not used
(see Figure 5). 2.2µF minimum is recommended when CBYP
is 470pF (see Figure 6). For applications < 3V, the output
capacitor should be increased to 22µF minimum to reduce
start-up overshoot. Larger values improve the regulator’s
transient response. The output capacitor value may be increased without limit.

determined using one simple equation.
PD = (VIN – VOUT) IOUT + VIN IGND
The output capacitor should have an ESR (equivalent series
resistance) of about 1Ω or less and a resonant frequency
above 1MHz. Ultra-low-ESR capacitors could cause oscillation and/or underdamped transient response. Most tantalum
or aluminum electrolytic capacitors are adequate; film types
will work, but are more expensive. Many aluminum electrolytics have electrolytes that freeze at about –30°C, so solid
tantalums are recommended for operation below –25°C.
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, if we are operating the MIC5219-3.3BM5 at room
temperature, with a minimum footprint layout, we can determine the maximum input voltage for a set output current.
P D (max ) =
At lower values of output current, less output capacitance is
needed for stability. The capacitor can be reduced to 0.47µF
for current below 10mA, or 0.33µF for currents below 1mA.

220°C / W
PD(max) = 455mW
No-Load Stability
The thermal resistance, junction-to-ambient, for the minimum
footprint is 220°C/W, taken from Table 1. The maximum power
dissipation number cannot be exceeded for proper operation of the device. Using the output voltage of 3.3V, and an
output current of 150mA, we can determine the maximum
input voltage. Ground current, maximum of 3mA for 150mA
of output current, can be taken from the “Electrical Characteristics” section of the data sheet.
The MIC5219 will remain stable and in regulation with no load
(other than the internal voltage divider) unlike many other
voltage regulators. This is especially important in CMOS
RAM keep-alive applications.
Reference Bypass Capacitor
BYP is connected to the internal voltage reference. A 470pF
capacitor (CBYP) connected from BYP to GND quiets this
reference, providing a significant reduction in output noise
(ultra-low-noise performance). CBYP reduces the regulator
phase margin; when using CBYP, output capacitors of 2.2µF
or greater are generally required to maintain stability.
455mW = (VIN – 3.3V) × 150mA + VIN × 3mA
455mW = (150mA) × VIN + 3mA × VIN – 495mW
950mW = 153mA × VIN
VIN = 6.2VMAX
The start-up speed of the MIC5219 is inversely proportional
to the size of the reference bypass capacitor. Applications
requiring a slow ramp-up of output voltage should consider
larger values of CBYP. Likewise, if rapid turn-on is necessary,
consider omitting CBYP.

Therefore, a 3.3V application at 150mA of output current
can accept a maximum input voltage of 6.2V in a SOT-23-5
package. For a full discussion of heat sinking and thermal

xBMM, the power MSOP package part. These graphs show
three typical operating regions at different temperatures. The
lower the temperature, the larger the operating region. The
graphs were obtained in a similar way to the graphs for the
MIC5219-x.xBM5, taking all factors into consideration and
using two different board layouts, minimum footprint and 1"
square copper PC board heat sink. (For further discussion
of PC board heat sink characteristics, refer to “Application
Hint 17, Designing PC Board Heat Sinks” .)
The MIC5219 is designed for applications where high start-up
currents are demanded from space constrained regulators.
This device will deliver 500mA start-up current from a SOT23-5 or MM8 package, allowing high power from a very low
profile device. The MIC5219 can subsequently provide output
current that is only limited by the thermal characteristics of
the device. You can obtain higher continuous currents from
the device with the proper design. This is easily proved with
some thermal calculations.
The information used to determine the safe operating regions
can be obtained in a similar manner such as determining
typical power dissipation, already discussed. Determining
the maximum power dissipation based on the layout is the
first step, this is done in the same manner as in the previous
two sections. Then, a larger power dissipation number multiplied by a set maximum duty cycle would give that maximum
power dissipation number for the layout. This is best shown
through an example. If the application calls for 5V at 500mA
for short pulses, but the only supply voltage available is
8V, then the duty cycle has to be adjusted to determine an
average power that does not exceed the maximum power
dissipation for the layout.
If we look at a specific example, it may be easier to follow.
The MIC5219 can be used to provide up to 500mA continuous
output current. First, calculate the maximum power dissipation of the device, as was done in the thermal considerations
section. Worst case thermal resistance (θJA = 220°C/W for
the MIC5219-x.xBM5), will be used for this example.

current.

the MIC5219-xxBMM, the maximum duty cycle is 27.4%.
2.955W

Applications also call for a set nominal current output with a
greater amount of current needed for short durations. This is a
tricky situation, but it is easily remedied. Calculate the average
power dissipation for each current section, then add the two
numbers giving the total power dissipation for the regulator.
For example, if the regulator is operating normally at 50mA,
but for 12.5% of the time it operates at 500mA output, the
total power dissipation of the part can be easily determined.
First, calculate the power dissipation of the device at 50mA.
We will use the MIC5219-3.3BM5 with 5V input voltage as
our example.
2.995W = 520mA × VIN
VIN (max ) =
Therefore, to be able to obtain a constant 500mA output current from the 5219-5.0BM5 at room temperature, you need
extremely tight input-output voltage differential, barely above
the maximum dropout voltage for that current rating.
You can run the part from larger supply voltages if the proper
precautions are taken. Varying the duty cycle using the enable pin can increase the power dissipation of the device by
maintaining a lower average power figure. This is ideal for
applications where high current is only needed in short bursts.
Figure 1 shows the safe operating regions for the MIC5219-x.
xBM5 at three different ambient temperatures and at different output currents. The data used to determine this figure
assumed a minimum footprint PCB design for minimum heat
sinking. Figure 2 incorporates the same factors as the first
figure, but assumes a much better heat sink. A 1" square copper trace on the PC board reduces the thermal resistance of
the device. This improved thermal resistance improves power
dissipation and allows for a larger safe operating region.
PD × 50mA = (5V – 3.3V) × 50mA + 5V × 650µA
PD × 50mA = 173mW
However, this is continuous power dissipation, the actual
on‑time for the device at 50mA is (100%-12.5%) or 87.5%
of the time, or 87.5% duty cycle. Therefore, PD must be multiplied by the duty cycle to obtain the actual average power
dissipation at 50mA.
Figures 3 and 4 show safe operating regions for the MIC5219-x.
