General Description
The MIC5233 is a 100 mA, highly accurate, low dropout
regulator with high input voltage and ultra-low ground
current. This combination of high voltage and low
ground current makes the MIC5233 ideal for multicell
Li-Ion battery systems.
A µCap LDO design, the MIC5233 is stable with either
ceramic or tantalum output capacitors. It only requires
a 2.2 µF output capacitor for stability.
Features of the MIC5233 include enable input, thermal
shutdown, current limit and reverse battery protection,
and reverse leakage protection.
Available in fixed and adjustable output voltage ver-
sions, the MIC5233 is offered in the 5-lead SOT23 and
3-lead SOT223 packages with a junction temperature
range of –40°C to +125°C.
Applications
• Keep-Alive Supply in Notebook and Portable
Computers
• USB Power Supply
• Logic Supply for High-Voltage Batteries
• Automotive Electronics
• Battery-Powered Systems
• 3-4 Cell Li-Ion Battery Input Range

† 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. Specifications are for packaged product only.

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.
