MICREL MIC5318

MIC5318
High Performance 300mA
µCap ULDO™
General Description
Features
The MIC5318 is a high performance, single output
ultra low drop-out (ULDO™) regulator, offering low
total output noise in an ultra-small Thin MLF®
package. The MIC5318 is capable of sourcing 300mA
output current and offers high PSRR and low output
noise, making it an ideal solution for RF applications.
Ideal for battery operated applications, the MIC5318
offers 2% initial accuracy, extremely low dropout
voltage (110mV @ 300mA), and low ground current
(typically 85µA total). The MIC5318 can also be put
into a zero-off-mode current state, drawing no current
when disabled.
The MIC5318 is available in the 1.6mm x 1.6mm Thin
MLF® package, occupying only 2.56mm2 of PCB area,
fully a 36% reduction in board area when compared to
SC-70 and 2mm x 2mm MLF® packages.
The MIC5318 has an operating junction temperature
range of –40°C to +125°C and is available in fixed and
adjustable output voltages in lead-free (RoHS
compliant) Thin MLF® and Thin SOT23-5 packages.

Notes:
1. Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
2. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
3. The maximum allowable power dissipation of any TA (ambient temperature) is 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.
4. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended. Human body model.
5. Specification for packaged product only.
6. 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.
7. 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. For outputs below 2.3V, dropout voltage is the input-to-output differential with the minimum input voltage 2.3V.
8. Ground pin current is the regulation quiescent current. The total current drawn from the supply is the sum of the load current plus the ground
pin current.

Application Information
Bypass Capacitor
A capacitor can be placed from the noise bypass pin
to ground to reduce output voltage noise. The
capacitor bypasses the internal reference. A 0.1μF
capacitor is recommended for applications that require
low-noise outputs. The bypass capacitor can be
increased, further reducing noise and improving
PSRR. Turn-on time increases slightly with respect to
bypass capacitance. A unique, quick-start circuit
allows the MIC5318 to drive a large capacitor on the
bypass pin without significantly slowing turn-on time.
Refer to the Typical Characteristics subsection for
performance with different bypass capacitors.
Enable/Shutdown
The MIC5318 comes with an active-high enable pin
that allows the regulator to be disabled. Forcing the
enable pin low disables the regulator and sends it into
a “zero” off-mode-current state. In this state, current
consumed by the regulator goes nearly to zero.
Forcing the enable pin high enables the output
voltage. The active-high enable pin uses CMOS
technology and the enable pin cannot be left floating;
a floating enable pin may cause an indeterminate
state on the output.
Input Capacitor
The MIC5318 is a high-performance, high bandwidth
device. Therefore, it requires a well-bypassed input
supply for optimal performance. A 1µF capacitor
is required from the input to ground to provide
stability. Low-ESR ceramic capacitors provide optimal
performance at a minimum of space. Additional highfrequency capacitors, such as small-valued NPO
dielectric-type capacitors, help filter out highfrequency noise and are good practice in any RFbased circuit.
No-Load Stability
Unlike many other voltage regulators, the MIC5318
will remain stable and in regulation with no load. This
is especially crucial for CMOS RAM keep-alive
applications.
Adjustable Regulator Application
Adjustable regulators use the ratio of two resistors to
multiply the reference voltage to produce the desired
output voltage. The MIC5318 can be adjusted from
1.25V to 5.5V by using two external resistors (Figure
1). The resistors set the output voltage based on the
following equation:
Output Capacitor
The MIC5318 requires an output capacitor of 1µF or
greater to maintain stability. The design is optimized
for use with low-ESR ceramic chip capacitors. High
ESR capacitors may cause high frequency oscillation.
The output capacitor can be increased, but
performance has been optimized for a 1µF ceramic
output capacitor and does not improve significantly
with larger capacitance.
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% and 60%, respectively, over their operating
temperature ranges. To use a ceramic chip capacitor
with Y5V dielectric, the value must be much higher
than an X7R ceramic capacitor to ensure the same
minimum capacitance over the equivalent operating
temperature range.

MIC5318
Substituting PD for PD(max) and solving for the ambient
operating temperature will give the maximum
operating conditions for the regulator circuit. The
junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the
minimum footprint is 100°C/W.
The maximum power dissipation must not be
exceeded for proper operation.
For example, when operating the MIC5318-2.8YMT at
an input voltage of 3.3V and 300mA load with a
minimum footprint layout, the maximum ambient
operating temperature TA can be determined as
follows:
Thermal Considerations
The MIC5318 is designed to provide 300mA of
continuous current. Maximum ambient operating
temperature can be calculated based on the output
current and the voltage drop across the part. Given
that the input voltage is 3.3V, the output voltage is
2.8V and the output current = 300mA.
The actual power dissipation of the regulator circuit
can be determined using the equation:
PD = (VIN – VOUT) IOUT + VIN IGND
Because this device is CMOS and the ground current
is typically <100µA over the load range, the power
dissipation contributed by the ground current is < 1%
and can be ignored for this calculation:
0.15W = (125°C – TA)/(100°C/W)
TA = 110°C
Therefore, a 2.8V application with 300mA of output
current can accept an ambient operating temperature
of 110°C in a 1.6mm x 1.6mm Thin MLF® package.
For a full discussion of heat sinking and thermal
effects on voltage regulators, refer to the “Regulator
Thermals” section of Micrel’s Designing with LowDropout Voltage Regulators handbook. This information can be found on Micrel's website at:
http://www.micrel.com/_PDF/other/LDOBk_ds.pdf
PD = (3.3V – 2.8V) × 300mA
PD = 0.15W
To determine the maximum ambient operating
temperature of the package, use the junction-toambient thermal resistance of the device and the
following basic equation:
PD(MAX) =
⎛
⎝
TJ(MAX) - TA
JA
TJ(max) = 125°C, the maximum junction temperature of
the die θJA thermal resistance = 100°C/W.
