Product details
Overview
MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR from Micrel is a digital power management IC integrating one 2MHz, 600mA synchronous step-down DC/DC converter and three independent 300mA low-dropout regulators (LDO1/LDO2/LDO3), delivering four fixed output rails (1.2V/1.8V/2.5V/2.7V) for multi-rail portable systems. It operates from 2.7V–5.5V input, achieves up to 86% efficiency at 600mA, and features ±2% output voltage accuracy across all rails.
For engineers reviewing the MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR datasheet, MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR pinout, MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR application, or MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR equivalent, this device supports compact, high-efficiency power sequencing in space-constrained battery-powered applications where low-noise LDOs with bypass capability and thermal shutdown protection are required.
Technical Context
The MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR implements a 2MHz PWM-controlled synchronous buck converter with internal high-side and low-side MOSFETs, enabling use of small 2.2µH inductors and 2.2µF ceramic output capacitors. Its µCap architecture ensures stability with minimal external components while maintaining 86% peak efficiency at 1.2V/600mA output.
LDO1 and LDO2 accept input as low as 1.65V-ideal for post-regulating the DC/DC output-and feature 142mV dropout at 300mA and 70dB PSRR at 1kHz. LDO3 uses VIN (tied to DVIN) as its input source and shares the same ±2% accuracy and 300mA current capability but lacks the BYP pin present on MIC2811 variants.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| DC/DC Output Current | 600mA maximum - supports core logic or memory rail in mobile SoC applications without external boost. |
| Switching Frequency | 2MHz nominal - enables compact 2.2µH inductor and reduces EMI fundamental frequency above sensitive bands. |
| LDO Dropout Voltage | 142mV at 300mA (LDO1/LDO2) - allows operation with minimal headroom from DC/DC output (e.g., 1.8V LDO from 1.95V input). |
| Output Voltage Accuracy | ±2% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable voltage margining for processors and RF ICs without external trimming. |
| PSRR @ 1kHz | 70dB for LDO1/LDO2 - suppresses switching noise from DC/DC stage, critical for analog/RF supply domains. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 160°C activation with 23°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
| Package | 16-pin 3mm × 3mm MLF® - RoHS-compliant leadless package with NiPdAu finish; requires controlled reflow profile per JEDEC J-STD-020. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-pin 3mm × 3mm MLF® (MicroLeadFrame), exposed thermal pad, RoHS-compliant, halogen-free mold compound.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 EN1 | Enable input for LDO1 | Active-high logic control; must be pulled high or low-floating prohibited to avoid undefined LDO state. |
| 2 BIAS | Internal bias supply | Requires 0.1µF decoupling to SGND; not loadable-serves internal reference and error amplifier circuitry. |
| 3 SGND | Signal ground | Reference for FB, BYP, EN pins; must be routed separately from PGND to prevent noise coupling into control loop. |
| 4 PGND | Power ground | High-current return path for SW and LDO outputs; connects to thermal pad; requires low-inductance layout. |
| 5 SW | Switch node | Drives external inductor; carries high di/dt PWM current-must be short, wide, and isolated from sensitive traces. |
| 6 DVIN | DC/DC input supply | Primary input for buck stage; must be tied directly to VIN; requires local 4.7µF ceramic decoupling to PGND. |
| 7 VIN2 | LDO2 input supply | Accepts 1.65V–5.5V; enables LDO2 to regulate from intermediate rail (e.g., DC/DC output); independent of DVIN. |
| 8 LDO2 | LDO2 regulated output | Fixed 2.5V output (per ordering code); delivers up to 300mA with 142mV dropout and 70dB PSRR at 1kHz. |
| 9 LDO3 | LDO3 regulated output | Fixed 2.7V output; powered from VIN (tied to DVIN); enabled via EN pin; no BYP support. |
| 10 VIN | LDO3 & bias supply | Must be connected to DVIN; powers LDO3 and internal bias circuits-failure here disables all outputs. |
| 11 LDO1 | LDO1 regulated output | Fixed 1.8V output; identical specs to LDO2-142mV dropout, 70dB PSRR, 300mA max-optimized for low-noise analog rails. |
| 12 VIN1 | LDO1 input supply | Accepts 1.65V–5.5V; allows LDO1 to be powered from DC/DC output (e.g., 1.95V → 1.8V) for minimal dropout loss. |
| 13 FB | DC/DC feedback input | Connects directly to DC/DC output for fixed-voltage operation; sets regulation point via internal resistor divider. |
| 14 BYP | Reference bypass | Accepts 0.1µF capacitor to SGND to reduce LDO1/LDO2 output noise; absent on MIC2821; improves PSRR by >10dB. |
| 15 EN | DC/DC enable | Active-high input controlling buck converter and LDO3; logic threshold 1.1V min; 0.2V max for disable-compatible with 1.8V GPIO. |
| 16 EN2 | Enable input for LDO2 | Independent active-high control for LDO2; enables flexible power sequencing (e.g., delay LDO2 turn-on after DC/DC stabilization). |

FAQ
What output voltages does the MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR provide?
The MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR provides four fixed output voltages: 1.2V (DC/DC), 1.8V (LDO1), 2.5V (LDO2), and 2.7V (LDO3). These values are factory-programmed and non-adjustable; the "4GJLYML" suffix explicitly denotes this voltage combination per Micrel's ordering information table.
Does the MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR support independent enable control for all regulators?
Yes-the MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR provides individual enable inputs: EN for DC/DC and LDO3, EN1 for LDO1, EN2 for LDO2, and no EN3 (as that pin is BYP on MIC2811). This allows precise power sequencing-for example, enabling DC/DC first, then LDO1/LDO2 after soft-start completion.
What is the purpose of the BYP pin on the MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR?
The BYP pin on the MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR accepts a 0.1µF capacitor to SGND to bypass the internal reference, reducing output noise on LDO1 and LDO2 to 30µVRMS (10Hz–100kHz) and improving PSRR by >15dB below 10kHz-critical for noise-sensitive analog/RF supplies.
Can the MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR operate with input voltage below 2.7V?
No-the MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR requires DVIN and VIN ≥2.7V for DC/DC and LDO3 operation. However, LDO1 and LDO2 accept inputs as low as 1.65V on VIN1/VIN2, enabling them to be powered from the DC/DC output (e.g., 1.2V rail boosted to 1.35V minimum for LDO1 input).
What package type and thermal characteristics does the MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR use?
The MIC2811-4GJLYML-TR uses a 16-pin 3mm × 3mm MLF® package with exposed thermal pad. Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) is 56°C/W, and thermal shutdown activates at 160°C with 23°C hysteresis-requiring adequate copper pour and vias under the pad for >300mA continuous operation.
