Product details
Overview
MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR from Micrel is a fixed-output 2.8V, 150mA ultra-low-dropout linear regulator in a thin SOT-23-5 package, featuring 60mV dropout at full load, 20µVrms output noise, and 90µA quiescent current - ideal for powering audio codecs and portable RF modules where low noise and battery efficiency are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR datasheet, MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR pinout, MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR application, or MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include dropout voltage at 150mA, PSRR performance up to 85dB at 1kHz, thermal shutdown behavior, enable pin logic thresholds, and compatibility with 1µF ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with an internal 1.25V reference, error amplifier, and quick-start bypass circuitry. It delivers regulated 2.8V output across 2.25V–5.5V input range while maintaining stability with only 1µF ceramic output capacitance.
Its active-high enable pin (VIH ≥ 1.0V, VIL ≤ 0.2V) controls zero-current shutdown mode, and the BYP pin accepts a 0.1µF capacitor to reduce reference noise and improve PSRR - enabling <30µs turn-on time even with bypass capacitance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.8V ±1.0% initial accuracy; ensures stable biasing for 2.8V-tolerant analog circuits without external feedback. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA guaranteed; supports moderate-power peripherals like RF transceivers or sensor signal chains. |
| Dropout Voltage | 60mV @ 150mA; enables operation down to VIN = 2.86V, extending battery runtime in single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly systems. |
| Ground Current | 90µA typical @ light load; minimizes standby power loss in always-on subsystems such as real-time clocks or keep-alive RAM. |
| Output Noise | 20µVrms (10Hz–100kHz); preserves SNR in sensitive audio codec and ADC reference supplies. |
| PSRR | 85dB @ 1kHz (with 0.1µF BYP cap); suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters feeding mixed-signal ICs. |
| Enable Threshold | Logic-compatible: VIH ≥ 1.0V, VIL ≤ 0.2V; interfaces directly with 1.8V/3.3V GPIO without level-shifting. |
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; requires 1µF ceramic bypass to GND for stability and transient response. |
| 2 - GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for load, enable, and bypass circuits; connects internally to exposed heatsink pad. |
| 3 - EN | Enable Input | Active-high digital control; pulls to GND to disable regulator and reduce supply current to ≤0.5µA. |
| 4 - BYP | Reference Bypass | Connects 0.1µF capacitor to GND to lower output noise and improve PSRR; optional but recommended for audio/RF. |
| 5 - VOUT | Regulated Output | Delivers stable 2.8V ±1% to load; stable with ≥1µF X7R/X5R ceramic capacitor; no minimum load required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| µCap ceramic-stable design | Operates with only 1µF output capacitor - eliminates need for tantalum or large electrolytics, reducing board area and cost. |
| Zero-off-mode shutdown | Draws ≤0.5µA when EN = low - enables true power gating in battery-backed subsystems. |
| Ultra-low-noise regulation | 20µVrms output noise + 85dB PSRR at 1kHz - suitable for powering high-resolution ADCs and audio DACs. |
| Fast turn-on response | <30µs startup with 0.1µF BYP cap - meets timing requirements for wake-from-sleep sequences in portable devices. |
| Thermal & current protection | Integrated thermal shutdown and 300–900mA current limit - prevents damage during overload or ambient temperature excursions. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-2802E/TT | 250mA rated, 1.6µA quiescent current, 170mV dropout @ 250mA; SOT-23-5 package. | Higher IQ enables longer shelf life in energy-harvesting sensors; higher dropout limits use in low-VIN battery systems. | Select when ultra-low IQ dominates over noise and PSRR requirements. |
| Torex XC6206P282MR-G | 150mA rated, 1µA IQ, 350mV dropout @ 150mA; SOT-25 package; no BYP pin. | Lacks bypass pin and PSRR optimization; unsuitable for noise-sensitive audio/RF; smaller footprint. | Select for space-constrained, low-power-only applications where noise immunity is secondary. |
Compared with MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR, MCP1700T-2802E/TT offers lower quiescent current but sacrifices PSRR and noise performance, while XC6206P282MR-G reduces size and IQ but lacks the BYP-controlled noise suppression essential for precision analog rails.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR?
The MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR has an absolute maximum input voltage of 6V. Its operational input range is specified from 2.25V to 5.5V. Exceeding 6V may cause permanent damage. For reliable operation at 5.5V input, ensure thermal design accommodates power dissipation - e.g., at 150mA load and 2.8V output, PD ≈ 405mW - and verify PCB copper area meets θJA = 235°C/W for TSOT-23-5.
Does MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR require an external bypass capacitor on the BYP pin?
The MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR does not require the BYP pin to be used - it functions correctly with BYP left open. However, connecting a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor from BYP to GND reduces output noise to 20µVrms and improves PSRR to 85dB at 1kHz. This is strongly recommended for audio, RF, and high-resolution ADC applications where supply noise directly impacts signal integrity.
Can MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR operate with no load connected to VOUT?
Yes, MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR remains stable and in regulation with zero load - a key differentiator from many legacy LDOs. This capability supports applications such as CMOS RAM keep-alive circuits, real-time clock backup supplies, and always-on sensor monitoring nodes where intermittent or zero-load conditions occur regularly without risking oscillation or dropout.
What is the thermal shutdown threshold and hysteresis behavior of MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR?
MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR activates thermal shutdown when junction temperature exceeds +125°C. The device remains latched off until TJ falls below approximately +110°C due to built-in hysteresis. During shutdown, output is disabled and ground current drops to ≤0.5µA. Recovery is automatic upon cooling - no external reset or enable toggling is needed. This protects against sustained overloads in compact enclosures.
Is MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR pin-compatible with other variants in the MIC5305 family?
Yes, all MIC5305 variants in the TSOT-23-5 (D5) package - including MIC5305-2.8YD5-TR, MIC5305-3.3YD5-TR, and MIC5305-1.8YD5-TR - share identical pinout, footprint, and electrical interface. Only the fixed output voltage differs. This enables single-board designs with voltage-selectable options via BOM change, simplifying inventory and qualification across multiple product SKUs.
