Cap Linear Regulator
Preliminary Information
General Description
The MIC5247 is an efficient, precise low voltage CMOS
voltage regulator optimized for ultra-low-noise applications.
The MIC5247 offers better than 1% initial accuracy, and 85µA
constant ground current over load (typically 85µA). The
MIC5247 provides a very low noise output, ideal for RF
applications where quiet voltage sources are required. A
noise bypass pin is also available for further reduction of
output noise.
Designed specifically for hand-held and battery-powered
devices, the MIC5247 provides a logic compatible enable pin.
When disabled, power consumption drops nearly to zero.
The MIC5247 also works with low-ESR ceramic capacitors,
reducing the amount of board space necessary for power
applications, critical in hand-held wireless devices.
Key features include current limit, thermal shutdown, a push-
pull output for faster transient response, and an active clamp
to speed up device turnoff. Available in the IttyBitty™ SOT-23-5
package, the MIC5247 also offers a range of fixed output
voltages.

Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended.
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 150mA. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are covered by the thermal regulation specification.
Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its nominal value measured a1V
differential. For outputs below 2.7V, dropout voltage is the input-to-output voltage differential with the minimum input voltage 2.7V. Minimum
input operating voltage is 2.7V.
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.
