MIC2920A/29201/29202/29204
400mA Low-Dropout Voltage Regulator
General Description
Features
The MIC2920A family are “bulletproof,” efficient voltage • High output voltage accuracy
regulators with very low dropout voltage (typically 40mV at • Guaranteed 400mA output
light loads and 370mV at 250mA), and very low quiescent • Low quiescent current
current (140µA typical). The quiescent current of the MIC2920A • Low dropout voltage
increases only slightly in dropout, prolonging battery life. Key • Extremely tight load and line regulation
MIC2920A features include protection against reversed battery, • Very low temperature coefficient
fold-back current limiting, and automotive “load dump” • Current and thermal limiting
protection (60V positive transient).
• Input withstands –20V reverse battery and
60V positive transients
The MIC2920 is available in several configurations. The • Error flag warns of output dropout
MIC2920A-x.x devices are three pin fixed voltage regulators • Logic-controlled electronic shutdown
available in 3.3V, 4.85V, 5V, and 12V outputs. The MIC29201 • Output programmable from 1.24V to 26V
is a fixed regulator offering a logic compatible ON/OFF
(MIC29202/MIC29204)
(shutdown) input and an error flag output. This flag may also • Available in TO-220, TO-220-5, and surface-mount
be used as a power-on reset signal. A logic-compatible
TO-263-5, SOT-223, and SO-8 packages.

shutdown input is provided on the adjustable MIC29202
which allows the regulator to be switched on and off. The
Applications
