Applications Information Transient Response The MIC5258 implements a unique output stage to dramatically improve transient response recovery time. The output is a totem-pole configuration with a P-channel MOSFET pass device and an N-channel MOSFET clamp. The N-channel clamp is a significantly smaller device that prevents the output voltage from overshooting when a heavy load is removed. This feature helps to speed up the transient response by significantly decreasing transient response recovery time during the transition from heavy load (100mA) to light load (100A). Enable/Shutdown The MIC5258 comes with an active-high enable pin that allows the regulator to be disabled. Forcing the enable pin low disables the regulator and sends it into a "zero" off-mode-current state. In this state, current consumed by the regulator goes nearly to zero. Forcing the enable pin high enables the output voltage. This part is CMOS and the enable pin cannot be left floating; a floating enable pin may cause an indeterminate state on the output. Input Capacitor Active Shutdown An input capacitor is not required for stability. A 1F input capacitor is recommended when the bulk ac supply capacitance is more than 10 inches away from the device, or when the supply is a battery. The MIC5258 also features an active shutdown clamp, which is an N-channel MOSFET that turns on when the device is disabled. This allows the output capacitor and load to discharge, de-energizing the load. Output Capacitor Thermal Considerations The MIC5258 requires an output capacitor for stability. The design requires 1F or greater on the output to maintain stability. The capacitor can be a low-ESR ceramic chip capacitor. The MIC5258 has been designed to work specifically with the low-cost, small chip capacitors. Tantalum capacitors can also be used for improved capacitance over temperature. The value of the capacitor can be increased without bound. The MIC5258 is designed to provide 150mA of continuous current in a very small package. Maximum power dissipation can be calculated based on the output current and the voltage drop across the part. To determine the maximum power dissipation of the package, use the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the device and the following basic equation: X7R dielectric 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 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 or a tantalum capacitor to ensure the same minimum capacitance value over the operating temperature range. Tantalum capacitors have a very stable dielectric (10% over their operating temperature range) and can also be used with this device. PD(max) = TJ(max) is the maximum junction temperature of the die, 125C, and TA is the ambient operating temperature. JA is layout dependent; Table 1 shows examples of junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the MIC5258. Package JA Recommended Minimum Footprint JA 1" Square Copper Clad JC 235C/W 185C/W 145C/W SOT-23-5 (M5) Table 1. SOT-23-5 Thermal Resistance The actual power dissipation of the regulator circuit can be determined using the equation: Power Good The power good output is an open-drain output. It is designed essentially to work as a power-on reset generator once the regulated voltage was up and/or a fault condition. The output of the power good drives low when a fault condition AND an undervoltage detection occurs. The power good output comes back up once the output has reached 97% of its nominal value and a 1ms to 5ms delay has passed. See Timing Diagram. PD = (VIN - VOUT) IOUT + VIN IGND Substituting PD(max) for PD and solving for the operating conditions that are critical to the application will give the maximum operating conditions for the regulator circuit. For example, when operating the MIC5258-1.2BM5 at 50C with a minimum footprint layout, the maximum input voltage for a set output current can be determined as follows: The MIC5258's internal circuit intelligently monitors overcurrent, overtemperature and dropout conditions and ORs thes outputs together ti indicate some fault condition. this output is fed into an on-board delay circuitry that drives the open drain transistor to indicate a fault. April 2006 TJ(max) - TA JA PD (max) = 125C - 50C 235C/W PD(max) = 315mW The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the minimum footprint is 235C/W, from Table 1. The maximum power dissipation must not be exceeded for proper operation. Using the output voltage of 1.2V and an output current of 150mA, the maximum input voltage can be determined. Because this device is CMOS and the ground current is typically 100A over the load range, the power dissipation contributed by the ground current is < 1% and can be ignored for this calculation. 7 MIC5258 MIC5258 Micrel, Inc. 315mW = (VIN - 1.2V) 150mA 315mW = VIN *150mA - 195mW 510mW = VIN*150mA VIN(max) = 3.4V Therefore, a 1.2V application at 150mA of output current can accept a maximum input voltage of 3.4V in a SOT-23-5 package. For a full discussion of heat sinking and thermal effects on voltage regulators, refer to the Regulator Thermals section of Micrel's Designing with Low-Dropout Voltage Regulators handbook. Dual-Supply Operation When used in dual supply systems where the regulator load is returned to a negative supply, the output voltage must be diode clamped to ground.
