MIC5200 Micrel MIC5200 100mA Low-Dropout Voltage Regulator Preliminary Information General Description Features The MIC5200 is an efficient linear voltage regulator with very low dropout voltage (typically 17mV at light loads and 200mV at 100mA), and very low ground current (1mA at 100mA output), offering better than 1% initial accuracy with a logic compatible ON/OFF switching input. Designed especially for hand-held battery powered devices, the MIC5200 is switched by a CMOS or TTL compatible logic signal. The ENABLE control may be tied directly to VIN if unneeded. When disabled, power consumption drops nearly to zero. The ground current of the MIC5200 increases only slightly in dropout, further prolonging battery life. Key MIC5200 features include protection against reversed battery, current limiting, and overtemperature shutdown. • • • • • • • • • • • The MIC5200 is available in several fixed voltages and accuracy configurations.

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: P(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. The θJC of the MIC5200-xxBS is 15°C/W and θJA for the MIC5200BM is 160°C/W mounted on a PC board (see “Thermal Considerations” section for further details). 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. Parts are tested for load regulation in the load range from 0.1mA to 100mA. 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 100mA load pulse at VIN = 26V for t = 10ms. 0.01 15 3-125 July 1998 3 MIC5200 Micrel Typical Characteristics Dropout Voltage vs. Output Current Dropout Voltage vs. Temperature 50 0 0.01 IL = 100mA 0.2 0.1 IL = 1mA 0.0 -60 -30 0 30 60 90 120 150 TEMPERATURE (°C) 0.1 1 10 100 1000 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) Ground Current vs. Output Current 0.1 0.01 0.8 0.6 0.0 0.1 1 10 100 OUTPUT CURRENT (mA) IL = 100mA IL = 1mA 0.2 0 Ground Current vs. Temperature 0.15 -60 -30 0 30 60 90 120 150 TEMPERATURE (°C) 3.4 3.3 3.2 3.1 3 DEVICES: HI / AVG / LO CURVES APPLICABLE AT 100µA AND 100mA 3.0 -60 -30 0 30 60 90 120 150 TEMPERATURE (°C) July 1998 0 ∆ OUTPUT (mV) 1.3 ILOAD = 100mA CIN = 2.2µF COUT = 4.7µF 1.2 1.1 0 50 100 TEMPERATURE (°C) 260 VOUT = 3.3V 200 180 160 140 VOUT = 0V (SHORT CIRCUIT) 120 100 -60 -30 0 30 60 90 120 150 TEMPERATURE (°C) 3-126 10 CIN = 2.2µF COUT = 4.7µF 2.5 2.0 1.5 1.0 0.5 0.1 0.2 OUTPUT CURRENT (A) 0.3 100 50 0 CL = 4.7 µF 200 -50 100 0 -100 -5 150 300 280 240 220 2 4 6 8 INPUT VOLTAGE (V) 3.0 Output Current vs. Temperature Output Voltage vs. Temp.

Layout External Capacitors A 1µF capacitor is recommended between the MIC5200 output and ground to prevent oscillations due to instability. Larger values serve to improve the regulator's transient response. 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 tantalum capacitors 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 0.47µF for current below 10mA or 0.33µF for currents below 1 mA. A 1µF capacitor should be placed from the MIC5200 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. The MIC5200 will remain stable and in regulation with no load in addition to the internal voltage divider, unlike many other voltage regulators. This is especially important in CMOS RAM keep-alive applications. 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. The MIC5200-xxBM (8-pin surface mount package) has the following thermal characteristics when mounted on a single layer copper-clad printed circuit board. θJA PC Board Dielectric FR4 Ceramic 160°C/W 120°C/W Multi-layer boards having a ground plane, wide traces near the pads, and large supply bus lines provide better thermal conductivity. The "worst case" value of 160°C/W assumes no ground plane, minimum trace widths, and a FR4 material board. Part II. Nominal Power Dissipation and Die Temperature The MIC5200-xxBM at a 25°C ambient temperature will operate reliably at up to 625mW power dissipation when mounted in the "worst case" manner described above. At an ambient temperature of 55°C, the device may safely dissipate 440mW. These power levels are equivalent to a die temperature of 125°C, the recommended maximum temperature for non-military grade silicon integrated circuits. For MIC5200-xxBS (SOT-223 package) heat sink characteristics, please refer to Micrel Application Hint 17, “Calculating P.C. Board Heat Sink Area for Surface Mount Packages”. ENABLE Input 50 mil The MIC5200 features nearly zero OFF mode current. When the ENABLE input is held below 0.7V, all internal circuitry is powered off. Pulling this pin high (over 2.0V) re-enables the device and allows operation. The ENABLE pin requires a small amount of current, typically 15µA. While the logic threshold is TTL/CMOS compatible, ENABLE may be pulled as high as 30V, independent of the voltage on VIN. 245 mil 150 mil 30 mil 50 mil Minimum recommended board pad size, SO-8.
