MIC5245
150mA
µ
Cap CMOS LDO Regulator
Final Information
General Description
The MIC5245 is an efficient, precise CMOS voltage regulator
optimized for ultra-low-noise applications. The MIC5245 of-
fers better than 1% initial accuracy, extremely low dropout
voltage (typically 150mV at 150mA) and constant ground
current over load (typically 100µA). The MIC5245 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 MIC5245 provides a TTL logic compatible en-
able pin. When disabled, power consumption drops nearly to
zero.
The MIC5245 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
and power MSO-8 packages, the MIC5245 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 at 1V
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. The total current drawn from the supply is the sum of the load current plus the ground
pin current.
