Microchip | MIC5211-LXYM6-TR

The MIC5211-LXYM6 TR is a dual µCap 80 mA linear voltage regulator with very low dropout voltage (typically 20 mV at light loads), very low ground current (225 µA at 20 mA output current), and better than 3% initial accuracy.

This dual device comes in the miniature SOT-23-6 package, featuring independent logic control inputs. The µCap regulator design is optimized to work with low-value, low-cost ceramic capacitors. The outputs typically require only 0.1 µF of output capacitance for stability. Designed especially for hand-held, battery-powered devices, ground current is minimized using Micrel’s proprietary Super ßeta PNP™ technology to prolong battery life. When disabled, power consumption drops nearly to zero. Key features include SOT-23-6 packaging, current limiting, over temperature shutdown, and protection against reversed battery conditions.
