The MIC5205 is an efficient linear voltage regulator with ultra low-noise output, very low dropout voltage (typically 17 mV at light loads and 165 mV at 150 mA), and very low ground current (600 µA at 100 mA output). The MIC5205 offers better than 1% initial accuracy.
Designed especially for hand-held, battery-powered devices, the MIC5205 includes a CMOS or TTL compatible enable/shutdown control input. When shut down, power consumption drops nearly to zero. Regulator ground current increases only slightly in dropout, further prolonging battery life.
Key MIC5205 features include a reference bypass pin to improve its already excellent low-noise performance, reversed-battery protection, current limiting, and
over temperature shutdown.
