MIC5208 Micrel MIC5208 Dual 50mA LDO Regulator Final Information General Description Features The MIC5208 is a dual linear voltage regulator with very low dropout voltage (typically 20mV at light loads and 250mV at 50mA), very low ground current (225µA at 10mA output), and better than 3% initial accuracy. It also features individual logic-compatible enable/shutdown control inputs. Designed especially for hand-held battery powered devices, the MIC5208 can be switched by a CMOS or TTL compatible logic signal, or the enable pin can be connected to the supply input for 3-terminal operation. When disabled, power consumption drops nearly to zero. Dropout ground current is minimized to prolong battery life. • • • • • • • • • • • Key features include current limiting, overtemperature shutdown, and protection against reversed battery.

Note 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 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: PMAX = (TJ(max) – TA) / θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown. θJA of the 8-lead MSOP is 200°C/W, mounted on a PC board. Note 2: Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range. Note 3: 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. Note 4: 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. Note 5: 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. Note 6: 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 50mA load pulse at VIN = 16V for t = 10ms. 1997 3 MIC5208 MIC5208 Micrel Typical Characteristics 100 1000 500 VIN = VOUT + 1V 0 CIN = 10µF COUT = 1µF 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 0.0 0 50 100 150 200 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) IL = 50mA IL = 100µA 0.5 3.4 3.2 3.0 2.8 2.6 3 DEVICES HI / AVG / LO CURVES APPLICABLE AT 100µA AND 50mA 2.4 -60 -30 0 30 60 90 120 150 TEMPERATURE (°C) MIC5208 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 SUPPLY VOLTAGE (V) 7 7 2.5 140 120 100 80 60 CIN = 10µF COUT = 1µF 40 20 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) CIN = 10µF COUT = 1µF 2.0 1.5 1.0 IL = 50mA 0.5 IL = 100µA Thermal Regulation (MIC5208-3.3) 160 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 SUPPLY VOLTAGE (V) 0.0 -60 -30 0 30 60 90 120 150 TEMPERATURE (°C) 60 40 20 0 -20 -40 -60 100 7 50 0 CL = 1µF -50 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 TIME (ms) Short Circuit Current vs. Temperature Minimum Supply Voltage vs. Temperature 3.5 200 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) 3.6 VOUT = 3.3V 1.0 Output Voltage vs. Temperature CIN = 10µF COUT = 1µF CIN = 10µF COUT = 1µF Short Circuit Current vs. Input Voltage 4.0 3.8 1 Ground Current vs. Temperature ∆ OUTPUT (mV) 2.5 IL = 50mA 3.0 1.5 0.0 SHORT CIRCUIT CURRENT (mA) OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) 3.0 2 0 2.0 Output Voltage vs. Output Current 3.5 IL = 100µA 3 Ground Current vs. Supply Voltage 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) 4.0 IL = 100µA IL = 1mA 0 -60 -30 0 30 60 90 120 150 TEMPERATURE (°C) 0.1 1 10 100 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) 1500 OUTPUT VOLTAGE (V) 200 Ground Current vs. Output Current 2000 GROUND CURRENT (µA) IL = 50mA 180 160 CIN = 10µF COUT = 1µF 140 120 100 -60 -30 0 30 60 90 120 150 TEMPERATURE (°C) 4 MIN.

This is especially important in CMOS RAM keep-alive applications. Both MIC5208 GND pins must be connected to the same ground potential. INA and INB can each be connected to a different supply. Enable/Shutdown ENA (enable/shutdown) and ENB may be enabled separately. Forcing ENA/B high (> 2V) enables the associated regulator. ENA/B requires a small amount of current, typically 15µA. While the logic threshold is TTL/CMOS compatible, ENA/B may be forced as high as 20V, independent of VIN. Input Capacitor A 0.1µF 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. Output Capacitor An output capacitor is required between OUT and GND to prevent oscillation. Larger values improve the regulator’s transient response. The output capacitor value may be increased without limit. The output capacitor should have an ESR (effective series resistance) of about 5Ω or less and a resonant frequency above 500kHz. Most tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors are adequate; film types will work, but are more expensive. Since many aluminum electrolytics have electrolytes that freeze at about –30°C, solid tantalums are recommended for operation below –25°C. Thermal Shutdown Thermal shutdown is independent on both halves of the dual MIC5208, however, an overtemperature condition in one half may affect the other half because of proximity. Thermal Considerations Multilayer boards having a ground plane, wide traces near the pads, and large supply bus lines provide better thermal conductivity. The MIC5208-xxBMM (8-lead MSOP) has a thermal resistance of 200°C/W when mounted on a FR4 board with minimum trace widths and no ground plane. PC Board Dielectric θJA FR4 200°C MSOP Thermal Characteristics For additional heat sink characteristics, please refer to Micrel Application Hint 17, “Calculating P.C. Board Heat Sink Area For Surface Mount Packages”. At lower values of output current, less output capacitance is required for output stability. The capacitor can be reduced to 0.22µF for current below 10mA or 0.1µF for currents below 1mA.
