MIC5323
High PSRR Low Noise 300mA µCap
Ultra-Low Dropout LDO Regulator
General Description
The MIC5323 is a high-performance, 300mA LDO regula-
tor, offering extremely high PSRR and very low noise while
consuming low ground current.
Ideal for battery operated applications, the MIC5323
features 2% accuracy, extremely low dropout voltage
(120mV @ 300mA), and low ground current at light load
(typically 90µA). When disabled, the MIC5323 typically
consumes less than 1µA.
The MIC5323 is a µCap design operating with small
ceramic output capacitors for stability, thereby reducing
required board space and component cost.
The MIC5323 is available in
fixed
output voltages and
adjustable output voltages in the super compact
6-pin 2mm × 2mm Thin MLF
®
and thin SOT-23-5 package.
Additional voltage options are available. Contact Micrel
marketing.
Data sheets and support documentation can be found on
Micrel’s web site at
www.micrel.com.

Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
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.
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 low duty cycle pulse testing, changes in output voltage due to heating effects
are covered by the thermal regulation specification.
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.
