MIC5216
500mA-Peak Output LDO Regulator Preliminary Information
General Description
The MIC5216 is an efficient linear voltage regulator with high peak output current capability, very low dropout voltage, and better than 1% output voltage accuracy. Dropout is typically 10mV at light loads and less than 500mV at full load. The MIC5216 is designed to provide a peak output current for startup conditions where higher inrush current is demanded. It features a 500mA peak output rating. Continuous output current is limited only by package and layout. The MIC5216 has an internal undervoltage monitor with a flag output. It also can be enabled or shutdown by a CMOS or TTL compatible signal. When disabled, power consumption drops nearly to zero.
