Product details
Overview
MIC49150-0.9BMM from Microchip Technology is a 3A low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) with fixed 0.9V output, ±1.5% initial accuracy, and 350mV dropout at full load. It operates from 1.2V to 6.0V input and delivers stable power to FPGA core rails, ASIC logic supplies, and high-speed processor I/O domains.
For engineers reviewing the MIC49150-0.9BMM datasheet, MIC49150-0.9BMM pinout, MIC49150-0.9BMM application, or MIC49150-0.9BMM equivalent, key selection criteria include output voltage tolerance, thermal shutdown behavior, reverse current protection, and PSRR performance at 100kHz.
Technical Context
The MIC49150-0.9BMM uses a PMOS pass transistor architecture enabling ultra-low dropout and no external compensation. Its internal reference is trimmed during final test for ±1.5% output accuracy over temperature and line/load conditions.
Thermal foldback limits junction temperature to 150°C, and the device includes undervoltage lockout (UVLO) that disables regulation below 1.1V input. Reverse current protection prevents backfeed when VIN < VOUT.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 0.9V ±1.5% over -40°C to +125°C, suitable for sub-1V digital core supplies. |
| Max Output Current | 3A continuous, enabling single-regulator support for mid-power SoC/FPGA cores. |
| Dropout Voltage | 350mV at 3A load, allowing operation from 1.25V input in 0.9V systems. |
| PSRR | 60dB at 100Hz, 45dB at 100kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters. |
| Quiescent Current | 1.2mA typical at full load - minimizes no-load power loss in always-on domains. |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at 165°C junction temperature with hysteresis, protecting against sustained overload. |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in an exposed-pad 8-pin MicroLeadFrame (MLF) package (3mm × 3mm, 0.5mm pitch), thermally optimized for PCB copper pour attachment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN | Input voltage supply | Accepts 1.2V–6.0V; requires local 10µF ceramic input capacitor for stability. |
| GND | Power ground reference | Common return path for load current and internal bias; tied to exposed pad. |
| OUT | Regulated output | Delivers 0.9V ±1.5%; requires 22µF ceramic output capacitor with ≤5mΩ ESR. |
| EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic input; pulls down internally to disable regulator when open. |
| BP | Bypass capacitor connection | Connects 10nF capacitor to reduce reference noise and improve PSRR above 10kHz. |
| ADJ/SENSE | Output voltage feedback | Internally connected to OUT; not user-accessible in fixed-output variants. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| PMOS Pass Device | Enables 350mV dropout at 3A and eliminates reverse current without external diode. |
| Internal UVLO | Prevents erratic startup by disabling regulation until VIN ≥ 1.1V. |
| Thermal Foldback | Reduces output current progressively above 145°C to sustain operation without shutdown. |
| Stable with Ceramic Capacitors | Eliminates need for tantalum or aluminum electrolytic output capacitors. |
Applications
| FPGA Core Power | ASIC I/O Supply |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7A8300ARGRT | 0.9V fixed output, 3A rating, but requires external compensation and larger 10µF BP capacitor. | Higher quiescent current (2.2mA) and no thermal foldback - less suited for sustained high-temp operation. | Select when design already uses TI's LDO ecosystem and board space allows larger bypass cap. |
| NCP1117ST09T3G | 0.9V fixed output, only 1A rated, PNP-based architecture with 1.2V dropout at full load. | Limited to low-power microcontrollers; cannot support 3A FPGA cores or ASIC I/O banks. | Use only for cost-sensitive, low-current applications where 350mV dropout is not required. |
Compared with TPS7A8300ARGRT and NCP1117ST09T3G, the MIC49150-0.9BMM uniquely combines 3A capability, 350mV dropout, thermal foldback, and ceramic-capacitor stability in a 3mm × 3mm MLF package - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-current sub-1V digital power rails.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the MIC49150-0.9BMM?
The MIC49150-0.9BMM supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 6.0V. Operation above this level risks permanent damage. The device functions correctly across its recommended input range of 1.2V to 6.0V, with dropout performance optimized above 1.25V for 0.9V output delivery. Always observe derating guidelines in the official Microchip datasheet for MIC49150-0.9BMM.
Does the MIC49150-0.9BMM require an external bypass capacitor?
Yes, the MIC49150-0.9BMM requires a 10nF ceramic capacitor connected between the BP pin and GND to achieve specified PSRR and noise performance. This capacitor reduces reference noise and improves high-frequency rejection. Omitting it degrades PSRR above 10kHz and may increase output voltage ripple. The MIC49150-0.9BMM datasheet specifies this as mandatory for full specification compliance.
Can the MIC49150-0.9BMM be used in parallel for higher current?
No, the MIC49150-0.9BMM is not designed for parallel operation. Its PMOS pass architecture lacks built-in current-sharing circuitry, and mismatched thermal gradients or output tolerances would cause uneven load distribution. For >3A requirements, select a higher-current LDO or redesign using a switching regulator followed by post-regulation. The MIC49150-0.9BMM datasheet does not support or characterize parallel configurations.
What thermal management is required for the MIC49150-0.9BMM at 3A load?
At 3A with 1.25V input and 0.9V output, the MIC49150-0.9BMM dissipates ~1.05W. To maintain junction temperature ≤125°C in still air, use ≥250mm² of 2oz copper connected to the exposed pad, plus at least one internal ground plane layer. Thermal vias (≥6×0.3mm) under the pad are mandatory. The MIC49150-0.9BMM MLF package relies on PCB conduction - heatsinks are ineffective without direct pad contact.
Is reverse current protection enabled by default in the MIC49150-0.9BMM?
Yes, reverse current protection is inherent to the MIC49150-0.9BMM's PMOS pass transistor architecture and requires no external components. When VIN falls below VOUT, the body diode remains reverse-biased, blocking backflow from output to input. This feature is fully characterized in the MIC49150-0.9BMM datasheet and operates across the full temperature range without degradation.
