MIC5306
150mA Micropower µCap Baseband LDO
General Description
Features
The MIC5306 is a micropower, µCap low dropout
regulator designed for optimal performance in a small
space. It is capable of sourcing 150mA of output current
and only draws 16µA of operating current. This high
performance LDO offers fast transient response and
good PSRR while consuming a minimum of current.
Ideal for battery operated applications; the MIC5306
offers 1% accuracy, extremely low dropout voltage
(45mV @ 100mA).
Equipped with a TTL logic
compatible enable pin, the MIC5306 can be put into a
zero-off-mode current state, drawing no current when
disabled.
The MIC5306 is a µCap design, operating with very
small ceramic output capacitors for stability, reducing
required board space and component cost.
The MIC5306 is available in fixed output voltages in
Thin SOT23-5 packaging.

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. 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 2.25V, dropout voltage is the input-to-output differential with the minimum input voltage 2.25V.
5. Turn-on time is measured from Ven=1V of the positive edge of the enable signal to 90% of the rising edge of the output voltage of the regulator.

Applications Information
Input Capacitance
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.
PD = (3.8V – 2.8V) ⋅ 150mA
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:
TJ(max) – TA
PD(max) =
Output Capacitance
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 below ESR 300mΩ
and a resonant frequency above 1MHz. Ultra-low-ESR
capacitors can cause a low amplitude oscillation on
the output and/or underdamped transient response.
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.
JA
TJ(max) = 125°C, the maximum junction temperature
of the die θJA thermal resistance = 235°C/W
Table 1 shows junction-to-ambient thermal resistance
for the MIC5306 in the TSOT23-5 package.

Table 1. TSOT23-5 Thermal Resistance
Enable
Forcing EN (enable/shutdown) high (>1V) enables the
regulator. EN is compatible with CMOS logic gates. If
the enable/shutdown feature is not required, connect
EN (pin 3) to IN (supply input, pin 1).
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 235°C/W, from Table 1. The
maximum power dissipation must not be exceeded for
proper operation.
For example, when operating the MIC5306-2.8 at an
input voltage of 3.8V and 150mA load with a minimum
footprint layout, the maximum ambient operating
temperature TA can be determined as follows:
0.15W = (125°C - T) / 235C°/W
T = 89.75°C
Therefore, a 2.8V application at 150mA of output
current can accept an ambient operating temperature
of 89.8°C in a TSOT23-5 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 Low-Dropout
Voltage Regulators handbook. This information can
be found on Micrel's website at:
http://www.micrel.com/_PDF/other/LDOBk_ds.pdf
Current Limit
There is overcurrent protection circuitry built into the
MIC5306. Even with the output grounded, current will
be limited to approximately 285mA. Further protection
is provided by thermal shutdown.
Thermal Considerations
The MIC5306 is designed to provide 150mA of
continuous current in a very small package. 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 3.8V,
the output voltage is 2.8V and the output current
equals 150mA.
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
