MIC5234
Low-Quiescent Current
150mA LDO Regulator
General Description
Features
The MIC5234 is a low-quiescent current, μCap low-
dropout regulator. With a maximum operating input voltage
of 30V and quiescent current of 20μA, it is ideal for
supplying keep-alive power in systems with high-voltage
batteries.
Capable of 150mA output, the MIC5234 has a dropout
voltage of only 320mV. It can also survive an input
transient of –20V to +32V. The MIC5234 requires only a
2.2μF output capacitor for stable operation.
The MIC5234 includes a logic compatible enable input.
Other features of the MIC5234 include thermal shutdown,
current limit, overvoltage shutdown, load dump protection,
reverse-leakage and reverse battery protection.
The MIC5234 is available in an 8-pin ePad SOIC package
with a junction operating range from –40°C to +125°C.
