Micrel, Inc.
MIC5200
100mA Low-Dropout Regulator
General Description
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 espe-
cially 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 V
IN
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 over-temperature shutdown.
The MIC5200 is available in several fixed voltages and ac-
curacy configurations. Other options are available; contact
Micrel for details.

Note 1:
Micrel, Inc.
Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. 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, T
J (MAX)
, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance,
θ
JA
, and the ambient tem-
perature, T
A
. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated using: P
(MAX)
= (T
J(MAX)
– T
A
)
÷ θ
JA
. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go
into thermal shutdown. The
θ
JC
of the MIC5200-xxBS is 15°C/W and
θ
JA
for the MIC5200BM is 160°C/W mounted on a PC
board (see “Thermal Considerations” section for further details).
Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature
range.
Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Parts are tested for load regula-
tion in the load range from 0.1mA to 100mA. 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 at 1V differential.
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.
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 V
IN
= 26V for t = 10ms.
