MIC5239
Low Quiescent Current 500mA µCap
LDO Regulator
General Description
The MIC5239 is a low quiescent current, µCap low-dropout
regulator. With a maximum operating input voltage of 30V
and a quiescent current of 23µA, it is ideal for supplying
keep-alive power in systems with high voltage batteries.
Capable of 500mA output, the MIC5239 has a dropout
voltage of only 350mV. It can provide high output current
for applications such as USB.
As a µCap LDO, the MIC5239 is stable with either a
ceramic or a tantalum output capacitor. It only requires a
3.3µF output capacitor for stability.
The MIC5239 includes a logic compatible enable input and
an undervoltage error flag indicator. Other features of the
MIC5239 include thermal shutdown, current limit, overvolt-
age shutdown, reverse-leakage protection, and reverse-
battery protection.
Available in the thermally enhanced SOIC-8, MSOP-8 and
SOT-223, the MIC5239 comes in fixed 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V,
3.0V, 3.3V and 5.0V, and adjustable voltages. For other
output voltages, contact Micrel.

Pin Function
Error FLAG (Output): Open-collector output is active low when the output
is out of regulation due to insufficient input voltage or excessive load. An
external pull-up resistor is required.
Adjustable Feedback Input: Connect to voltage divider network.
Power Supply Input.
Regulated Output.
Enable (input): Logic low = shutdown; logic high = enabled.

Notes:

Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
MIC5239
The maximum allowable power dissipation of any T
A
(ambient temperature) is P
D
(max) = (T
J
(max) – T
A
) ÷
θ
JA
. Exceeding the maximum
allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown. The
θ
JA
of the MIC5239-
x.xBMM (all versions) is 80°C/W, the MIC5239-x.xBM (all versions) is 63°C/W, and the MIC5239-x.xBS (all versions) is 50°C/W mounted on a
PC board, see “Thermal Characteristics” for further details.
Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended. Human body model, 1.5kΩ in series with 100pF.
Specification for packaged product only.
Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature using pulse testing with a low duty-cycle. Changes in output voltage due to heating
effects are covered by the specification for thermal regulation.
Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 2% below its nominal value measured at 1.0V
differential.
