MIC29150/29300/29500/29750 Series
High-Current Low-Dropout Regulators
General Description
The MIC29150/29300/29500/29750 are high current, high
accuracy, low-dropout voltage regulators. Using Micrel's
proprietary Super ßeta PNP™ process with a PNP pass
element, these regulators feature 300mV to 370mV (full load)
dropout voltages and very low ground current. Designed for
high current loads, these devices also find applications in
lower current, extremely low dropout-critical systems, where
their tiny dropout voltage and ground current values are
important attributes.
The MIC29150/29300/29500/29750 are fully protected against
overcurrent faults, reversed input polarity, reversed lead
insertion, overtemperature operation, and positive and nega-
tive transient voltage spikes. Five pin fixed voltage versions
feature logic level ON/OFF control and an error flag which
signals whenever the output falls out of regulation. Flagged
states include low input voltage (dropout), output current
limit, overtemperature shutdown, and extremely high voltage
spikes on the input.
On the MIC29xx1 and MIC29xx2, the ENABLE pin may be
tied to V
IN
if it is not required for ON/OFF control. The
MIC29150/29300/29500 are available in 3- and 5-pin TO-220
and surface mount TO-263 packages. The MIC29750 7.5A
regulators are available in 3- and 5-pin TO-247 packages.

Maximum positive supply voltage of 60V must be of limited duration (<100msec) and duty cycle (≤1%). The maximum continuous supply
voltage is 26V.
Full Load current (I
FL
) is defined as 1.5A for the MIC29150, 3A for the MIC29300, 5A for the MIC29500, and 7.5A for the MIC29750 families.
Dropout voltage is defined as the input-to-output differential when the output voltage drops to 99% of its nominal value with V
OUT
+ 1V applied
to V
IN
V
IN
= V
OUT (nominal)
+ 1V. For example, use V
IN
= 4.3V for a 3.3V regulator or use 6V for a 5V regulator. Employ pulse-testing procedures to
minimize temperature rise.
Ground pin current is the regulator quiescent current. The total current drawn from the source is the sum of the load current plus the ground
pin current.
Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.
Thermal regulation is defined as the change in output voltage at a time T after a change in power dissipation is applied, excluding load or line
regulation effects. Specifications are for a 200mA load pulse at V
IN
= 20V (a 4W pulse) for T = 10ms.

Comparator thresholds are expressed in terms of a voltage differential at the Adjust terminal below the nominal reference voltage measured at
6V input. To express these thresholds in terms of output voltage change, multiply by the error amplifier gain = V
OUT
/V
REF
= (R1 + R2)/R2. For
example, at a programmed output voltage of 5V, the Error output is guaranteed to go low when the output drops by 95 mV x 5V/1.240 V = 384
mV. Thresholds remain constant as a percent of V
