MIC2950*/2951
150mA Low-Dropout Voltage Regulator
General Description
Features
The MIC2950 and MIC2951 are “bulletproof” micropower
•
High accuracy 3.3, 4.85, or 5V, guaranteed 150mA
voltage regulators with very low dropout voltage (typically
output
40mV at light loads and 250mV at 100mA), and very low

Unregulated DC input can withstand –20V reverse
The key additional features and protection offered include
battery and +60V positive transients
higher output current (150mA), positive transient protection
for up to 60V (load dump), and the ability to survive an

unregulated input voltage transient of –20V below ground
•
Error flag warns of output dropout
(reverse battery).
•
Logic-controlled electronic shutdown
The plastic DIP and SOIC versions offer additional system
•
Output programmable from 1.24 to 29V
functions such as programmable output voltage and logic
controlled shutdown. The 3-pin TO-92 MIC2950 is pin-
compatible with the older 5V regulators.
Applications
These system functions also include an error

available which enables the regulator to be switched on and

Micrel, Inc.
MIC2950/2951
The MIC2950 is available as either an -05 or -06 version.
The -05 and -06 versions are guaranteed for junction
temperatures from –40°C to +125°C; the -05 version has
a tighter output and reference voltage specification
range over temperature. The MIC2951 is available as an
-02 or -03 version.
The MIC2950 and MIC2951 have a tight initial tolerance
(0.5% typical), a very low output voltage temperature
coefficient which allows use as a low-power voltage
reference, and extremely good load and line regulation
(0.04% typical). This greatly reduces the error in the
overall circuit, and is the result of careful design
techniques and process control.

Pin Function
Regulated Output.
Sense (Input): Output-voltage sensing end of internal voltage divider for
fixed
5V
operation. Not used in adjustable configuration.
Shutdown/Enable (Input): TTL compatible input. High = shutdown, low or open
= enable.
Ground.
Error Flag (Output): Active low, open-collector output (low = error,
floating
=
normal).
3.3V/4.85/5V Tap: Output of internal voltage divider when the regulator is
configured for
fixed
operation. Not used in adjustable configuration.
Feedback (Input): 1.235V feedback from internal voltage divider’s TAP (for
fixed
operation) or external resistor network (adjustable configuration).
Unregulated Supply Input.
