General Description
The MIC5205 is an efficient linear voltage regulator
with ultra low-noise output, very low dropout voltage
(typically 17 mV at light loads and 165 mV at 150 mA),
and very low ground current (600 µA at 100 mA
output). The MIC5205 offers better than 1% initial
accuracy.
Designed especially for hand-held, battery-powered
devices, the MIC5205 includes a CMOS or TTL
compatible enable/shutdown control input. When shut
down, power consumption drops nearly to zero.
Regulator ground current increases only slightly in
dropout, further prolonging battery life.
Key MIC5205 features include a reference bypass pin
to improve its already excellent low-noise performance,
reversed-battery protection, current limiting, and
overtemperature shutdown.
The MIC5205 is available in fixed and adjustable output
voltage versions in a small SOT-23-5 package.
For low-dropout regulators that are stable with ceramic
output capacitors, see the µCap MIC5245/6/7 family.

† 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.

Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total
temperature range.
Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Parts are
tested for load regulation in the load range from 0.1 mA to 150 mA. Changes in output voltage due to heat-
ing 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.
Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current plus pass transistor base current. The total current
drawn from the supply is the sum of the load current plus the ground pin current.
Thermal regulation is defined as the change in output voltage at a time “t” after a change in power dissipa-
tion is applied, excluding load or line regulation effects. Specifications are for a 150 mA load pulse at V
IN
=
16V for t = 10 ms.

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.
The maximum allowable power dissipation at any T
A
(ambient temperature) is P
D(max)
= (T
J(max)
– T
A
)/
JA
.
Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the reg-
ulator will go into thermal shutdown. The
JA
of the MIC5205-xxYM5 (all versions) is 220°C/W mounted on
a PC board.
