MIC2215
Triple High PSRR, Low Noise µCap LDO
General Description
The MIC2215 is a high performance, triple LDO voltage
regulator, with each regulator capable of providing 250mA
continuous output current.
Ideal for battery operated applications, the MIC2215 offers
1% initial accuracy, extremely low dropout voltage (100mV
@ 150mA), and low ground current at light load (typically
110µA per regulator). Equipped with a noise bypass pin
and featuring very high power supply ripple rejection
(PSRR) of up to 80dB, the MIC2215 provides the lowest
noise and highest efficiency solution for RF applications in
portable electronics such as cellular phones and wireless
LAN applications.
Equipped with TTL logic-compatible enable pins, each of
the regulators in the MIC2215 can be put into a zero
current off mode where the supply current is much less
than 1µA when all the regulators are disabled. The
MIC2215 is a µCap design, which enables a stable output
with small ceramic output capacitors, reducing both cost
and required board space for output bypassing.
The MIC2215 is available in the miniature 16-pin,
(4mm×4mm) MLF
®
package.
Data sheets and support documentation can be found on
Micrel’s web site at www.micrel.com.

Notes:
1. Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device.
2. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
3. 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.
4. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended.
5. Specification for packaged product only.
