MIC2954
250mA Low-Dropout Regulator
General Description
Features
The MIC2954 is a “bulletproof” efficient voltage regulator with
very low dropout voltage (typically 40mV at light loads and
375mV at 250mA), and low quiescent current (120µA typical). The quiescent current of the MIC2954 increases only
slightly in dropout, thus prolonging battery life. Key MIC2954
features include protection against reversed battery, foldback current limiting, and automotive load dump protection
(60V positive transient).
The MIC2954-07/08BM is an adjustable version that includes
an error flag output that warns of a low output voltage, which
is often due to failing batteries on the input. This may also be
used as a power-on reset. A logic-compatible shutdown input
is provided which enables the regulator to be switched on and
off. This part may be pin-strapped for 5V output, or programmed from 1.24V to 29V with the use of two external
resistors.
The MIC2954 is available in two voltage tolerances, ±0.5%
maximum and ±1% maximum. Both are guaranteed for
junction temperatures from –40°C to +125°C.
The MIC2954 has a very low output voltage temperature
coefficient and extremely good load and line regulation
(0.04% typical).

Note 15
Note 1.
Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
Note 2.
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
Note 3.
Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended.
Note 4.
PD(max) = (TJ(max) – TA) ÷ θJC. Exceeding TJ(max) will cause thermal shutdown.
Note 5.
Thermal resistance (θJC) of the TO-220 package is 2.5°C/W, and 15°C/W for the SOT-223. Thermal resistance (θJC) of the TO-92 package is
180°C/W with 0.4" leads and 160°C/W with 0.25" leads. Thermal resistance (θJA) of the SOP-8 is 160°C/W mounted on a printed circuit board
(See “Application Information: Thermal Calculation”).
Note 6.
Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divide by the total temperature range.
Note 7.
Line regulation for the MIC2954 is tested at 125°C for IL = 1mA. For IL = 100µA and TJ = 125°C, line regulation is guaranteed by design to
0.2%. See “Typical Characteristics” for line regulation versus temperature and load current.
Note 8.
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 9.
Dropout Voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100 mV below its nominal value measured at 1V
differential. At very low values of programmed output voltage, the minimum input supply voltage of 2 V (2.3V over temperature) must be taken
into account.
Note 10. Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the source is the sum of the load current plus the ground
pin current.

Note 11. The MIC2954 features fold-back current limiting. The short circuit (VOUT = 0V) current limit is less than the maximum current with normal
output voltage.
Note 12. 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.
Note 13. VREF ≤ VOUT ≤ (VIN – 1V), 2.3V ≤ VIN ≤ 30V, 100 µA < IL ≤ 250 mA, TJ ≤ TJ(max).
Note 14. Comparator thresholds are expressed in terms of a voltage differential at the FB pin 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
95mV × 5V/1.235V = 384mV. Thresholds remain constant as a percent of VOUT as VOUT is varied, with the dropout warning occurring at
typically 5% below nominal, 7.5% guaranteed.
Note 15. VSHDN ≥ 2V, VIN ≤ 30 V,VOUT = 0, with the FB pin connected to TAP.
Note 16. 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.
Note 17. Maximum positive supply voltage of 60V must be of limited duration (<10ms) and duty cycle (<1%). The maximum continuous supply voltage
is 30V.

Programming the Output Voltage
(MIC2954-07/-08)
The MIC2954-07/-08 may be pin-strapped for 5V using its
internal voltage divider by tying pin 1 (OUT) to pin 2 (SNS) and
pin 7 (FB) to pin 6 (TAP). Alternatively, it may be programmed
for any output voltage between its 1.235V reference and its
30V maximum rating. An external pair of resistors is required,
as shown in Figure 3.
The complete equation for the output voltage is
Applications Information
External Capacitors
A 2.2µF (or greater) capacitor is required between the MIC2954
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.
At lower values of output current, less output capacitance is
required for output stability. The capacitor can be reduced to
0.5µF for current below 10mA or 0.15µF for currents below
1mA. Adjusting the MIC2954-07/-08 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
250mA load at 1.23V output (output shorted to feedback) a
5µF (or greater) capacitor should be used.
The MIC2954 will remain in regulation with a minimum load
of 1mA. When setting the output voltage of the MIC2954-07/
-08 version 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 MIC2954 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.
Error Detection Comparator Output
(MIC2954-07/-08)
A logic-low output will be produced by the comparator whenever the MIC2954-07/-08 output falls out of regulation by
more than approximately 5%. This figure is the comparator’s
built-in offset of about 60mV 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 MIC2954-07/-08. 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, current limiting, or thermal limiting.
Figure 1 is a timing diagram depicting the ERR signal and the
regulated output voltage as the MIC2954-07/-08 input is
ramped up and down. The ERR 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 MIC2954-07/-08’s
dropout voltage is load-dependent (see curve in “Typical
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.
The error comparator has an open-collector output which
requires an external pull-up resistor. Depending on system
requirements, this resistor may be returned to the 5V output
or some other supply voltage. In determining a value for this
resistor, note that while the output is rated to sink 400µA, 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.

where:
VREF = nominal 1.235V reference voltage
IFB = nominal FB pin bias current (–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 MIC2954-07/-08 typically draws 60µA at no load
with pin 2 (SNS) open-circuited, this is a negligible addition.
Reducing Output Noise
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
capacitor 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.

Multilayer boards having a ground plane, wide traces near the
pads, and large supply bus lines provide better thermal
conductivity.
Our calculations will use the “worst case” value of 160°C/W,
which assumes no ground plane, minimum trace widths, and
a FR4 material board.
Pad Layout (minimum recommended geometry)
or about 0.01µF. When doing this, the output capacitor must
be increased to 3.3µF 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.
Automotive Applications
The MIC2954 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 (75µA 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.

power level is equivalent to a die temperature of 125°C, the
recommended maximum temperature for nonmilitary grade
