MIC5256
150mA µCap LDO with Error Flag
General Description
The MIC5256 is an efficient, precise CMOS voltage
regulator. It offers better than 1% initial accuracy,
extremely low-dropout voltage (typically 135mV at 150mA)
and low ground current (typically 90µA) over load. The
MIC5256 features an error flag that indicates an output
fault condition such as overcurrent, thermal shutdown and
dropout.
Designed specifically for handheld and battery-powered
devices, the MIC5256 provides a TTL-logic-compatible
enable pin. When disabled, power consumption drops
nearly to zero.
The MIC5256 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, faster
transient response, and an active clamp to speed up
®
device turnoff. Available in the IttyBitty SOT-23-5
package and the new Thin SOT-23-5, which offers the
same footprint as the standard IttyBitty
®
SOT-23-5, but
only 1mm tall. The MIC5256 offers a range of output
voltages.

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 T
A
(ambient temperature) is P
D(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
JA
of the MIC5255-x.xBM5 (all versions) is
235°C/W on a PC board (see “Thermal Considerations” section for further details).
4. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended.
5. Specification for packaged product only.
6. 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.
7. Dropout Voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its nominal value measured at 1Vdifferential.
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.
8. 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.
