Product details
Overview
MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR from Micrel is a fixed-output 2.7V, 150mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator in a thin SOT-23-5 package, featuring 60mV dropout at full load, ±1.0% initial output accuracy, and 20µVrms output noise - optimized for low-power portable audio codec and cellular phone power rails.
For engineers reviewing the MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR datasheet, MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR pinout, MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR application, or MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage under 150mA load, PSRR performance above 65dB at 10kHz, enable pin logic thresholds (VIL ≤ 0.2V, VIH ≥ 1.0V), thermal shutdown behavior, and compatibility with 1µF ceramic output capacitance.
Technical Context
The MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with integrated quick-start circuitry for bypass capacitor drive, thermal shutdown, and current limit protection. Its error amplifier references a 1.25V internal bandgap and supports stable regulation down to zero load.
It operates across 2.25V–5.5V input range with active-high enable control, uses a dedicated BYP pin for 0.1µF reference bypass to achieve 20µVrms noise, and maintains ±2.0% output accuracy over –40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.7V ±1.0% initial accuracy; ensures precise biasing for 2.7V-tolerant analog circuits like audio DACs. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA guaranteed; sufficient for powering single-channel audio codecs or baseband ICs in handheld devices. |
| Dropout Voltage | 60mV @ 150mA; enables operation from 2.76V input, critical for battery-powered systems near end-of-discharge. |
| PSRR | 85dB @ 1kHz, 65dB @ 10kHz (with 0.1µF BYP); suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters. |
| Ground Current | 90µA typical @ light load; minimizes quiescent power loss in always-on subsystems such as RTC or memory keep-alive rails. |
| Enable Threshold | VIL ≤ 0.2V, VIH ≥ 1.0V; compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO without level-shifting in modern SoC designs. |
| Output Noise | 20µVrms (10Hz–100kHz); meets low-noise requirements for high-fidelity audio signal chain power supplies. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Thin SOT-23-5 (TSOT-23-5), 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm body height, exposed pad thermally connected to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | Supply Input | Accepts 2.25V–5.5V input; requires 1µF ceramic bypass to GND for stability and transient response. |
| 2 - GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for load, enable, and bypass; connects internally to exposed heatsink pad. |
| 3 - EN | Enable Input | Active-high CMOS input; must be pulled high (>1.0V) to enable regulation; floating state prohibited. |
| 4 - BYP | Reference Bypass | Connects 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GND to reduce output noise and improve PSRR above 1kHz. |
| 5 - VOUT | Regulated Output | Delivers stable 2.7V ±1.0%; supports 1µF minimum ceramic output capacitor for unconditional stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low dropout | 60mV @ 150mA enables >97% efficiency at 2.7V output from 2.76V Li-ion cell residual voltage. |
| Ceramic capacitor stability | Stable with 1µF X7R/X5R ceramic output cap - eliminates need for costly tantalum or electrolytic alternatives. |
| Zero-off-mode current | 0.5µA max shutdown current allows true power gating in battery-backed subsystems. |
| Fast turn-on time | 30µs typical with 1µF COUT and 0.1µF CBYP - supports rapid wake-up in sleep-mode applications. |
| Thermal & current protection | Integrated thermal shutdown and 300–900mA current limit prevent damage during overload or PCB layout faults. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-2702E/TT | 250mA rated, 1.6µA quiescent current, no BYP pin; 1.8V–6.0V input range. | Lacks bypass-capacitor noise reduction; lower IQ suits ultra-low-power sensor nodes but not audio-sensitive rails. | Select when lowest possible quiescent current is prioritized over noise performance and PSRR. |
| Torex XC6206P272MR-G | 150mA rated, 3µA IQ, no enable pin; 1.8V–6.0V input; 200mV dropout @ 100mA. | No enable/shutdown control; higher dropout limits use in low-VIN battery scenarios. | Select only for cost-sensitive, always-on applications where enable functionality and ultra-low dropout are unnecessary. |
Compared with MCP1700T-2702E/TT and XC6206P272MR-G, the MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR uniquely combines 60mV dropout, 20µVrms noise, and active-high enable in a 5-pin thin SOT-23 - making it the only option among the three suitable for noise-critical, battery-voltage-constrained audio and RF subsystems.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR?
The MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR has an absolute maximum input voltage of 6V, but its specified operating input range is 2.25V to 5.5V. Operation above 5.5V risks permanent damage, while operation below 2.25V may fail to maintain regulation at 2.7V output due to insufficient headroom - especially under 150mA load where dropout is 60mV.
Does the MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR require an external bypass capacitor on the BYP pin?
The MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR does not require an external bypass capacitor on the BYP pin to function, but adding a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor from BYP to GND reduces output noise to 20µVrms and improves PSRR to 85dB at 1kHz. Omitting it degrades noise and ripple rejection performance but maintains basic regulation.
Can the MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR operate with no load connected to VOUT?
Yes, the MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR remains stable and in regulation with zero load - a feature explicitly confirmed in the datasheet's Application Information section. This makes it suitable for CMOS RAM keep-alive rails and other always-on, low-current subsystems without requiring dummy loads or external discharge paths.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR in its TSOT-23-5 package?
The MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR in the thin SOT-23-5 (D5) package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 235°C/W, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions; actual thermal performance improves significantly with PCB copper pour connected to the exposed pad.
Is the MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR pin-compatible with other variants in the MIC5305 family?
Yes, all MIC5305 variants in the TSOT-23-5 package - including MIC5305-2.7YD5-TR - share identical pinout (VIN, GND, EN, BYP, VOUT), allowing direct substitution between fixed-output versions without PCB changes. However, output voltage, marking, and tape-and-reel packaging differ per variant.
