8 / 10 page MIC5238 Micrel MIC5238 8 August 2003 Applications Information Enable/Shutdown The MIC5238 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. Input Bias Capacitor The input capacitor must be rated to sustain voltages that may be used on the input. An input capacitor may be required when the device is not near the source power supply or when supplied by a battery. Small, surface mount, ceramic capaci- tors can be used for bypassing. Larger values may be required if the source supply has high ripple. Output Capacitor The MIC5238 requires an output capacitor for stability. The design requires 2.2 µF or greater on the output to maintain stability. The design is optimized for use with low-ESR ceramic chip capacitors. High ESR capacitors may cause high frequency oscillation. The maximum recommended ESR is 3 Ω. The output capacitor can be increased without limit. Larger valued capacitors help to improve transient response. X7R/X5R dielectric-type ceramic capacitors are recom- mended because of their temperature performance. X7R- type capacitors change capacitance by 15% over their oper- ating temperature range and are the most stable type of ceramic capacitors. Z5U and Y5V dielectric capacitors change value by as much as 50% and 60% respectively over their operating temperature ranges. To use a ceramic chip capaci- tor with Y5V dielectric, the value must be much higher than a X7R ceramic capacitor to ensure the same minimum capaci- tance over the equivalent operating temperature range. No-Load Stability The MIC5238 will remain stable and in regulation with no load unlike many other voltage regulators. This is especially important in CMOS RAM keep-alive applications. Thermal Considerations The MIC5238 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 ther- mal resistance of the device and the following basic equation: P TT D(MAX) J(MAX) A JA = − θ T J(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature of the die, 125 °C, and T A is the ambient operating temperature. θJA is layout dependent; Table 1 shows the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the MIC5238. Package θθθθθ JA Recommended Minimum Footprint SOT-23-5 235 °C/W Table 1. SOT-23-5 Thermal Resistance The actual power dissipation of the regulator circuit can be determined using the equation: P D = (VIN – VOUT)IOUT + VINIGND Substituting P D(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 MIC5238-1.0BM5 at 50 °C with a minimum footprint layout, the maximum input voltage for a set output current can be determined as follows: P 125 C 50 C 235 C/W D(MAX) = °− ° ° P D(MAX) = 319mW The junction-to-ambient ( θ JA) thermal resistance for the minimum footprint is 235 °C/W, from Table 1. It is important that the maximum power dissipation not be exceeded to ensure proper operation. With very high input-to-output volt- age differentials, the output current is limited by the total power dissipation. Total power dissipation is calculated using the following equation: P D = (VIN – VOUT)IOUT + VIN x IGND + VBIAS x IBIAS Since the bias supply draws only 18 µA, that contribution can be ignored for this calculation. If we know the maximum load current, we can solve for the maximum input voltage using the maximum power dissipa- tion calculated for a 50 °C ambient, 319mV. P DMAX = (VIN – VOUT)IOUT + VIN x IGND 319mW = (V IN – 1V)150mA + VIN x 2.8mA Ground pin current is estimated using the typical character- istics of the device. 469mW = V IN (152.8mA) V IN = 3.07V For higher current outputs only a lower input voltage will work for higher ambient temperatures. Assuming a lower output current of 20mA, the maximum input voltage can be recalculated: 319mW = (V IN – 1V)20mA + VIN x 0.2mA 339mW = V IN x 20.2mA V IN = 16.8V Maximum input voltage for a 20mA load current at 50 °C ambient temperature is 16.8V. Since the device has a 6V rating, it will operate over the whole input range. Dual Suppy Mode Efficiency By utilizing a bias supply the conversion efficiency can be greatly enhanced. This can be realized as the higher bias supply will only consume a few µA’s while the input supply will require a few mA’s! This equates to higher efficiency saving valuable power in the system. As an example, consider an output voltage of 1V with an input supply of 2.5V at a load |
