Microchip | MIC29202WU-TR

The MIC29202WU TR family are “bulletproof,” efficient voltage regulators with very low dropout voltage (typically 40 mV at light loads and 370 mV at 250 mA), and very low quiescent current (140 µA typical). The quiescent current of the MIC2920A increases only slightly in dropout, prolonging battery life. Key MIC2920A features include protection against reversed battery, fold-back current limiting, and automotive “load dump” protection (60 V positive transient).

The MIC29202WU TR is available in several configurations. The MIC2920A-x.x devices are three pin fixed voltage regulators available in 3.3 V, 4.85 V, 5 V, and 12 V outputs. The MIC29201 is a fixed regulator offering a logic compatible ON/OFF (shutdown) input and an error flag output. This flag may also be used as a power-on reset signal. A logic-compatible shutdown input is provided on the adjustable MIC29202 which allows the regulator to be switched on and off. The MIC29204 8-pin SOIC adjustable regulator includes both shutdown and error flag pins and may be pin-strapped for 5 V output or programmed from 1.24 V to 26 V using two external resistors.
