MIC5321 Dual, High Performance 150mA Cap ULDOTM General Description Features The MIC5321 is a tiny Dual Ultra Low-Dropout (ULDOTM) linear regulator ideally suited for those applications that require high PSRR because it provides a bypass pin for those noise sensitive portable electronics. The MIC5321 integrates two high-performance; 150mA ULDOs into a very compact 1.6mm x 1.6mm leadless Thin MLF(R) package that provides exceptional thermal package characteristics. The MIC5321 is a Cap design which enables operation with very small ceramic output capacitors for stability, thereby reducing required board space and component cost. The combination of extremely low-drop-out voltage, very high power supply rejection, very low output noise and exceptional thermal package characteristics makes it ideal for powering RF application, cellular phone camera modules, imaging sensors for digital still cameras, PDAs, MP3 players and WebCam applications. The MIC5321 ULDOTM is available in fixed-output voltages in the tiny 6-pin 1.6mm x 1.6mm leadless Thin MLF(R) package which is only 2.56mm2 in area, less than 30% the area of the SOT-23, TSOP and MLF(R) 3x3 packages. It's also available in the thin SOT-23-6 lead package and the standard 6-pin 1.6mm x 1.6mm leadless package. Additional voltage options are available.

MIC5321 Applications Information PSRR. Turn-on time increases slightly with respect to bypass capacitance. A unique, quick-start circuit allows the MIC5321 to drive a large capacitor on the bypass pin without significantly slowing turn-on time. Refer to the Typical Characteristics section for performance with different bypass capacitors. Enable/Shutdown The MIC5321 comes with a single active-high enable pin that allows both regulators to be disabled simultaneously. Forcing the enable pin low disables the regulator and sends it into a "zero" off-modecurrent state. In this state, current consumed by the regulator goes nearly to zero. Forcing the enable pin high enables the output voltage. The active-high enable pin uses CMOS technology and the enable pin cannot be left floating; a floating enable pin may cause an indeterminate state on the output. No-Load Stability Unlike many other voltage regulators, the MIC5321 will remain stable and in regulation with no load. This is especially important in CMOS RAM keep-alive applications. Input Capacitor The MIC5321 is a high-performance, high bandwidth device. Therefore, it requires a well-bypassed input supply for optimal performance. A 1F capacitor is required from the input to ground to provide stability. Low-ESR ceramic capacitors provide optimal performance at a minimum of space. Additional highfrequency capacitors, such as small-valued NPO dielectric-type capacitors, help filter out highfrequency noise and are good practice in any RFbased circuit. Thermal Considerations The MIC5321 is designed to provide 150mA of continuous current for both outputs in a very small package. Maximum ambient operating temperature can be calculated based on the output current and the voltage drop across the part. Given that the input voltage is 3.3V, the output voltage is 2.8V for VOUT1, 2.5V for VOUT2 and the output current = 150mA. The actual power dissipation of the regulator circuit can be determined using the equation: PD = (VIN - VOUT1) IOUT1 + (VIN - VOUT2) IOUT2+ VIN IGND Because this device is CMOS and the ground current is typically <150A over the load range, the power dissipation contributed by the ground current is < 1% and can be ignored for this calculation. PD = (3.3V - 2.8V) x 150mA + (3.3V -1.5) x 150mA PD = 0.345W To determine the maximum ambient operating temperature of the package, use the junction-toambient thermal resistance of the device and the following basic equation: Output Capacitor The MIC5321 requires an output capacitor of 1F or greater to maintain stability. The design is optimized for use with low-ESR ceramic chip capacitors. High ESR capacitors may cause high frequency oscillation. The output capacitor can be increased, but performance has been optimized for a 1F ceramic output capacitor and does not improve significantly with larger capacitance. X7R/X5R dielectric-type ceramic capacitors are recommended because of their temperature performance. X7R-type capacitors change capacitance by 15% over their operating temperature range and are the most stable type of ceramic capacitors. Z5U and Y5V dielectric capacitors change value by as much as 50% and 60%, respectively, over their operating temperature ranges. To use a ceramic chip capacitor with Y5V dielectric, the value must be much higher than an X7R ceramic capacitor to ensure the same minimum capacitance over the equivalent operating temperature range. PD(MAX) = TJ(MAX) - TA JA TJ(max) = 125C, the maximum junction temperature of the die JA thermal resistance = 100C/W. The table below shows junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the MIC5321 in the Thin MLF(R) package. Package Bypass Capacitor A capacitor can be placed from the noise bypass pin to ground to reduce output voltage noise. The capacitor bypasses the internal reference. A 0.1F capacitor is recommended for applications that require low-noise outputs. The bypass capacitor can be increased, further reducing noise and improving May 2008 6-Pin 1.6x1.6 Thin MLF (R) JA Recommended Minimum Footprint JC 100C/W 2C/W Thermal Resistance 9 M9999-051508-E Micrel, Inc. Substituting PD for PD(max) and solving for the ambient operating temperature will give the maximum operating conditions for the regulator circuit. The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the minimum footprint is 100C/W. The maximum power dissipation must not be exceeded for proper operation. For example, when operating the MIC5321-MFYMT at an input voltage of 3.3V and 150mA loads at each output with a minimum footprint layout, the maximum ambient operating temperature TA can be determined as follows: May 2008 MIC5321 0.345W = (125C - TA)/(100C/W) TA=90.5C Therefore, a 2.8V/1.5V application with 150mA at each output current can accept an ambient operating temperature of 90.5C in a 1.6mm x 1.6mm Thin MLF(R) package.
