MIC94310 200mA LDO with Ripple BlockerTM Technology General Description Features The MIC94310 Ripple BlockerTM is a monolithic integrated circuit that provides low-frequency ripple attenuation (switching noise rejection) to a regulated output voltage. This is important for applications where a DC/DC switching converter is required to lower or raise a battery voltage but where switching noise cannot be tolerated by sensitive downstream circuits such as in RF applications. The MIC94310 maintains high power supply ripple rejection (PSRR) with input voltages operating near the output voltage level to improve overall system efficiency. A lowvoltage logic enable pin facilitates ON/OFF control at typical GPIO voltage levels. * 1.8V to 3.6V input voltage range * Active noise rejection over a wide frequency band - >50dB from 10Hz to 10MHz at 200mA load * Rated to 200mA output current * Fixed output voltages * Current-limit and thermal-limit protected * Ultra-small 0.88mm x 0.88mm 4-ball CSP * 1.2mm x 1.6mm 4-pin Thin DFN * 5-pin SOT-23 * Logic-controlled enable pin * -40C to +125C junction temperature range The MIC94310 operates from an input voltage of 1.8V to 3.6V.

MIC94310 Functional Characteristics October 30, 2013 8 Revision 2.0 Micrel, Inc. MIC94310 Application Information Enable/Shutdown Forcing the enable (EN) pin low disables the MIC94310 and sends it into a "zero" off mode current state. In this state, current consumed by the MIC94310 goes nearly to zero. Forcing EN high enables the output voltage. The EN pin uses CMOS technology and cannot be left floating as it could cause an indeterminate state on the output. The MIC94310 is a very-high PSRR, fixed-output, 200mA LDO utilizing Ripple BlockerTM technology. The MIC94310 is fully protected from damage due to fault conditions, offering linear current limiting and thermal shutdown. Input Capacitor The MIC94310 is a high-performance, high-bandwidth device. An input capacitor of 0.47F is required from the input to ground to provide stability. Low-ESR ceramic capacitors provide optimal performance at a minimum of space. Additional high-frequency capacitors, such as small-valued NPO dielectric-type capacitors, help filter out high-frequency noise and are good practice in any RF-based circuit. X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended for the input capacitor. Y5V dielectrics lose most of their capacitance over temperature and are therefore, not recommended. Thermal Considerations The MIC94310 is designed to provide 200mA of continuous current in a very-small package. Maximum ambient operating temperature can be calculated based on the output current and the voltage drop across the part. For example if the input voltage is 2.5V, the output voltage is 1.8V, and the output current = 200mA. The actual power dissipation of the Ripple BlockerTM can be determined using the equation: PD = (VIN - VOUT1) IOUT + VIN IGND Output Capacitance In order to maintain stability, the MIC94310 requires an output capacitor of 0.47F or greater for the Thin DFN and CSP packages and 10F or greater for the SOT-23 package. For optimal ripple rejection performance a 1F capacitor is recommended for the CSP and Thin DFN packages, while a 10F capacitor is recommended for the SOT-23 package. The design is optimized for use with low-ESR ceramic chip capacitors. High-ESR capacitors are not recommended because they 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. Because this device is CMOS and the ground current is typically <170A over the load range, the power dissipation contributed by the ground current is <1% and can be ignored for this calculation. PD = (2.5V - 1.8V) x 200mA PD = 0.14W To determine the maximum ambient operating temperature of the package, use the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the device and the following basic equation: 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 their value by as much as 50% and 60%, respectively, over their operating temperature ranges. To use a ceramic chip capacitor with the 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. TJ(max) - TA PD(MAX) = JA TJ(MAX) = 125C, the maximum junction temperature of the die, JA thermal resistance = 173C/W for the Thin DFN package. Substituting PD for PD(MAX) and solving for the ambient operating temperature will give the maximum operating conditions for the regulator circuit. No Load Stability The MIC94310 will remain stable and in regulation with no load. This is especially important in CMOS RAM keepalive applications. For proper operation, the maximum power dissipation must not be exceeded. For example, when operating the MIC94310-GYMT at an input voltage of 2.5V and 200mA load with a minimum October 30, 2013 9 Revision 2.0 Micrel, Inc. MIC94310 footprint layout, the maximum ambient operating temperature (TA) can be determined as follows: For more information about Micrel's Ripple BlockerTM products, please visit: http://www.micrel.com/index.php/en/products/powermanagement-ics/ldos/linear-power-filters.html 0.14W = (125C - TA)/(173C/W) http://www.micrel.com/index.php/en/products/powermanagement-ics/ldos/linear-power-filters/article/1mic94300.html TA = 101C http://www.micrel.com/index.php/en/products/powermanagement-ics/ldos/linear-power-filters/article/3mic94310.html Therefore, the maximum ambient operating temperature allowed in a 1.2mm x 1.6mm Thin DFN package is 101C.
