General Description
The MIC5501/2/3/4 is an advanced general-purpose
LDO ideal for powering general-purpose portable
devices. The MIC5501/2/3/4 family of products
provides a high-performance 300 mA LDO in an
ultra-small 1 mm x 1 mm package. The MIC5502 and
MIC5504 LDOs include an auto-discharge feature on
the output that is activated when the enable pin is low.
The MIC5503 and MIC5504 have an internal pull-down
resistor on the enable pin that disables the output when
the enable pin is left floating. This is ideal for
applications where the control signal is floating during
processor boot up.
Ideal
for
battery-powered
applications,
the
MIC5501/2/3/4 offers 2% initial accuracy, low dropout
voltage (160 mV at 300 mA), and low ground current
(typically 38 µA). The MIC5501/2/3/4 can also be put
into a zero-off-mode current state, drawing virtually no
current when disabled.
The MIC5501/2/3/4 has an operating
temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.

† Notice:
Stresses above those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device.
This is a stress rating only and functional operation of the device at those or any other conditions above those indicated
in the operational sections of this specification is not intended. Exposure to maximum rating conditions for extended
periods may affect device reliability.
‡ Notice:
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating ratings.
Note 1:

Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the reg-
ulator will go into thermal shutdown.

3:
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.
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 2.5V, dropout voltage is the input-to-output
differential with the minimum input voltage 2.5V.
Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the source is the sum
of the load current plus the ground pin current.

Conditions
The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of ambient temperature, the maximum allowable
junction temperature and the thermal resistance from junction to air (i.e., T
A
, T
J
,
JA
). Exceeding the
maximum allowable power dissipation will cause the device operating junction temperature to exceed the
maximum +125°C rating. Sustained junction temperatures above +125°C can impact the device reliability.
