Product details
Overview
MIC37110-1.8YM-TR from Micrel is a fixed-output 1.8V, 1A low-dropout linear regulator in SOIC-8 package, featuring 2% initial output voltage accuracy, 230mV typical dropout at 1A, high PSRR (>60dB up to 1kHz), and low ground current - designed for noise-sensitive power rails in portable multimedia devices and embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR datasheet, MIC37110-1.8YM-TR pinout, MIC37110-1.8YM-TR application, or MIC37110-1.8YM-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout performance under 1A load, thermal behavior in SOIC-8 layout, stability with 2.2µF ceramic output capacitor, and enable-controlled shutdown capability.
Technical Context
This LDO employs a CMOS-based pass element with internal reference and error amplifier, supporting input voltages from 2.375V to 5.5V and delivering regulated 1.8V output with ±2% accuracy over −40°C to +125°C junction temperature. It integrates thermal shutdown and current-limit protection without requiring external components.
The device features an active-high enable (EN) pin compatible with TTL/CMOS logic, enabling system-level power sequencing. Its low-noise architecture and high PSRR make it suitable for post-regulation filtering of switching converter outputs in battery-powered applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8V ±2% - ensures stable core voltage for 1.8V logic ICs without external feedback network. |
| Max Output Current | 1A minimum guaranteed - supports moderate-power SoCs, FPGAs, and memory subsystems. |
| Dropout Voltage | 230mV typical at 1A - enables operation from 2.03V input, critical for single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly battery systems. |
| PSRR | >60dB up to 1kHz - suppresses ripple from upstream DC/DC converters, improving signal integrity in audio/video paths. |
| Ground Current | 250–500µA at 10mA–1A load - minimizes quiescent power loss in always-on subsystems. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.375V to 5.5V - accommodates wide-input battery and adapter supplies while maintaining regulation. |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +125°C junction - qualified for automotive infotainment and industrial embedded environments. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOIC-8 (Power SOIC-8 variant with enhanced thermal performance; θJA = 63°C/W with PCB copper plane).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (EN) | Enable input | Active-high CMOS-compatible control; ties directly to microcontroller GPIO for precise power sequencing. |
| 2 (IN) | Input supply | Accepts 2.375–5.5V unregulated input; requires ≥1µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 3 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers 1.8V ±2% to load; stable with ≥2.2µF ceramic output capacitor (X7R/X5R dielectric recommended). |
| 4 (SNS) | Voltage sense | Connects at point-of-load to compensate for PCB trace IR drop; improves load regulation accuracy. |
| 5–8 (GND) | Ground return | Four parallel GND pins joined to internal die attach paddle - lowers thermal resistance and improves EMI immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MIC37120-1.8YM | Includes output auto-discharge circuit; otherwise identical electrical specs and pinout. | Required where rapid output discharge on shutdown is needed (e.g., hot-swap interfaces). | Select MIC37120-1.8YM only if automatic VOUT discharge is mandatory; otherwise MIC37110-1.8YM-TR offers same regulation performance with simpler biasing. |
| Torex XC6219B182MR-G | 1.8V fixed, 1A, but uses different enable polarity (active-low) and lacks SNS pin; dropout 250mV typ. | Suitable for cost-sensitive designs without remote sensing or strict PSRR requirements. | Choose XC6219B182MR-G only when enable polarity matches system logic and SNS functionality is unused; verify thermal derating in SOIC-8 layout. |
Compared with MIC37120-1.8YM, the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR omits auto-discharge to reduce complexity and leakage, while compared with XC6219B182MR-G, it provides superior PSRR, remote sensing, and tighter initial accuracy - making it preferable for noise-critical, high-reliability consumer electronics.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR?
The MIC37110-1.8YM-TR has an absolute maximum input voltage of +6V, but its specified operating input voltage range is +2.375V to +5.5V. Operation outside this range may cause malfunction or damage. For reliable 1.8V output, VIN must remain ≥2.03V (1.8V + 230mV dropout) under full 1A load.
Does the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR require an external resistor network for output voltage setting?
No, the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR is a fixed-output LDO with factory-trimmed 1.8V regulation - no external resistors are needed. Unlike the adjustable MIC37112/MIC37122 variants, it uses internal feedback and does not expose an ADJ pin; the SNS pin serves only for remote voltage sensing.
Can the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR be used without connecting the SNS pin?
Yes, the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR functions correctly with the SNS pin left unconnected or tied to OUT. However, connecting SNS directly at the load improves load regulation accuracy by compensating for PCB trace resistance - especially beneficial in high-current or long-trace applications.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR in SOIC-8 package?
The MIC37110-1.8YM-TR in SOIC-8 package has a typical junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 63°C/W when mounted on a standard PCB with adequate copper pour. This value assumes pins 5–8 are soldered to a solid ground plane; actual θJA varies with PCB layout and copper area.
Is the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the MIC37110-1.8YM-TR is RoHS compliant with the "high-melting solder" exemption per the ordering information note in the datasheet. It meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements for restricted hazardous substances.
