MIC5524
High-Performance 500mA LDO
in Thin DFN Package
General Description
The MIC5524 is a low-power, µCap, low dropout regulator
designed for optimal performance in a very-small footprint.
It is capable of sourcing 500mA of output current and only
draws 38µA of operating current to do so. The MIC5524
includes an auto-discharge feature on the output that is
activated when the enable pin is low and it has an internal
pull down resistor on the enable pin that will disable the
output when the enable pin is left floating, this is ideal for
applications where the control signal is floating during
processor boot up.
This high-performance LDO offers fast transient response
and good PSRR in a 1mm × 1mm Thin (0.4mm ht.) DFN
package.
Ideal for battery-operated applications, the MIC5524 offers
2% accuracy, extremely low dropout voltage (260mV @
500mA), and can regulate output voltages down to 1.0V.
Equipped with a TTL logic-compatible enable pin, the
MIC5524 can be put into a zero-off-mode current state,
drawing no current when disabled.
The MIC5524 is a µCap design, operating with very small
ceramic output capacitors for stability, reducing required
board space and component cost for space-critical
applications. The MIC5524 has an operating junction
temperature range of –40°C to 125°C.

. Exceeding the maximum allowable power
dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown.
Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions are recommended. Human body model, 1.5kΩ in series with 100pF.
Specification for packaged product only.
Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using low duty cycle pulse testing. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are
covered by the thermal regulation specification.
10. 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. For outputs below 2.5V, dropout voltage is the input-to-output differential with the minimum input voltage 2.5V.
11. 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.
