General Description
The MIC5202 is a family of dual linear voltage regulators with
very low dropout voltage (typically 17mV at light loads and
210mV at 100mA), and very low ground current (1mA at
100mA outputeach section), offering better than 1% initial
accuracy with a logic compatible ON/OFF switching input.
Designed especially for hand-held battery powered devices,
the MIC5202 is switched by a CMOS or TTL compatible logic
signal. This ENABLE control my be tied directly to V
IN
if
unneeded. When disabled, power consumption drops nearly
to zero. The ground current of the MIC5202 increases only
slightly in dropout, further prolonging battery life. Key MIC5202
features include protection against reversed battery, current
limiting, and over-temperature shutdown.
The MIC5202 is available in several fixed voltages. Other
options are available; contact Micrel for details.

Note 1:
Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. Electrical specifications do not
apply when operating the device outside of its rated operating conditions. The maximum allowable power dissipation is a
function of the maximum junction temperature, T
J(MAX)
the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance,
JA
, and the ambient
temperature, T
A
. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is calculated using: P
(MAX)
=
(T
J(MAX)
T
A
) /
JA.
Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the
regulator will go into thermal shutdown. The junction to ambient thermal resistance of the MIC5202BM is 160
C/W mounted
on a PC board.
Note 2:
Output voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range.
Note 3:
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 100mA. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are covered by the thermal regulation
specification.
Note 4:
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.
Note 5:
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.
Note 6:
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 100mA load pulse at V
IN
= 26V for t = 10ms, and is measured separately
for each section.
