Key Features

  • Ultra-low 500 mV dropout voltage at 100 mA output current, extending battery life in portable designs
  • 35 µA quiescent ground current at 100 µA load for minimal power consumption in always-on applications
  • Wide input voltage range of 3.3 V to 16 V in a compact SOT-23-5 package for space-constrained layouts

Applications

The MIC5270-5.0BM5TR is well-suited for battery-powered portable devices, wearables, and IoT sensor nodes where the 35 µA ground current and 500 mV dropout voltage maximize runtime. It also serves as a clean post-regulator in automotive and industrial designs requiring a stable 5.0 V rail from unregulated inputs up to 16 V.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the dropout voltage of the MIC5270-5.0BM5TR at full load, and why does it matter for battery-powered designs?

The MIC5270-5.0BM5TR has a maximum dropout voltage of 0.9 V and a nominal 500 mV at 100 mA output. This low dropout allows the regulator to maintain a stable 5.0 V output from input voltages as low as 3.3 V, extending battery life in portable applications by operating closer to the battery's discharge floor.

How does the MIC5270-5.0BM5TR perform in IoT or always-on sensor applications regarding quiescent current?

With only 35 µA ground current at a 100 µA load, the MIC5270-5.0BM5TR is optimized for IoT and always-on sensors where standby power dominates. This low quiescent figure means a 100 mAh coin cell can sustain the regulator's idle draw for over 2,800 hours.

When would you select MIC5270-5.0BM5TR over a similar fixed-output LDO in a larger package?

The MIC5270-5.0BM5TR in SOT-23-5 occupies minimal PCB area, making it preferable over TO-252 or TO-263 LDOs in compact designs. Its 16 V maximum input voltage also covers a broader range of unregulated adapter and automotive auxiliary voltages than many competing 5 V SOT-23 LDOs rated to only 6 V or 8 V.
