MIC5258
150mA µCap CMOS LDO Regulator w/Power Good
General Description
The MIC5258 is an efficient, precise CMOS voltage regula-
tor with power good output. The MIC5258 offers better than
3% initial accuracy, and constant ground current (typically
100µA)over load .
The MIC5258 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
package, the MIC5258 is a fixed 1.2V regulator.

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.
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.
The power good is a function of the output voltage being 5% low and the detection of one of the following: overcurrent, overtemperature or
dropout. See “Applications Information” section for additional information.
