Product details
Overview
MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR from Micrel is a dual low-dropout linear regulator IC delivering two independent 300mA outputs (VOUT1 = 1.5V, VOUT2 = 1.2V/1.0V selectable), ultra-low dropout of 85mV at 300mA, Power-On Reset (POR2) with adjustable delay, and bias-supplied architecture enabling operation down to 1.7V input. It serves as a compact, high-efficiency power management solution for multi-rail portable SoC subsystems requiring precise voltage sequencing and standby power optimization.
For engineers reviewing the MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR datasheet, MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR pinout, MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR application, or MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, exact pin functions, real-world use cases in battery-powered devices, and validated alternative options for dual-LDO system design.
Technical Context
The MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR integrates two independent CMOS-based LDO regulators sharing a common VBIAS rail (2.5–5.5V) while accepting separate VIN1/VIN2 inputs (1.7–VBIAS). Each LDO features internal current limiting and thermal shutdown, with LDO2 incorporating /VSC2-controlled voltage select (1.2V ↔ 1.0V) and POR2 open-drain flag output.
LDO1 and LDO2 operate with distinct enable controls (EN1/EN2, active-high), bypass capacitor support (CBYP) for noise reduction, and CSET2-programmable POR2 delay (1 sec/µF). The device achieves fast transient response and stability with only 1µF ceramic output capacitors per rail, enabled by its bias-supplied reference and control circuitry.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 300mA per LDO - supports core logic and I/O rails of mid-tier mobile processors without external boost. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.7V to VBIAS - enables direct regulation from single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly batteries (2.7–4.2V) with minimal headroom loss. |
| Dropout Voltage | 85mV @ 300mA - minimizes power dissipation and thermal rise in space-constrained portable PCBs. |
| VOUT1 / VOUT2 | Fixed 1.5V / 1.2V–1.0V (selectable) - matches typical ARM Cortex-A/M cores and DDR I/O voltage requirements. |
| POR2 Threshold | 88% VOUT2 (flag ON), 98% VOUT2 (flag OFF) - ensures reliable reset assertion during brown-out conditions on LDO2 rail. |
| Ground Current | 7µA (LDO1 active, LDO2 disabled) - enables ultra-low quiescent power in partial-sleep states. |
| PSRR | 65dB @ 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from upstream DC-DC converters feeding VIN1/VIN2. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 12-pin 2.5mm × 2.5mm Thin MLF® (RoHS-compliant, NiPdAu lead finish, halogen-free mold compound).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN1 | Input supply for LDO1 | Accepts 1.7V–VBIAS; powers core rail independently of LDO2's input path. |
| VIN2 | Input supply for LDO2 | Enables separate sourcing (e.g., from different battery taps or DC-DC outputs) for flexible power domain partitioning. |
| VBIAS | Bias supply for internal reference/control | 2.5–5.5V rail powers bandgap, POR, and enable logic-decoupled from load current, improving PSRR and stability. |
| EN1 / EN2 | Active-high enable for LDO1/LDO2 | CMOS-compatible inputs; disable respective LDO into ~0.01µA shutdown state-no external pull-down required. |
| /VSC2 | Voltage select control for LDO2 | Logic-low selects 1.0V mode (reducing dynamic power); logic-high retains 1.2V-critical for adaptive voltage scaling. |
| CSET2 | POR2 delay timing input | Connect external capacitor to GND; 1µF = ~1s delay-enables programmable reset hold time for sequenced boot. |
| POR2 | Open-drain Power-On Reset flag | Asserts low when VOUT2 drops below 88% nominal; drives external microcontroller reset or PMIC enable signal. |
| CBYP | Bypass capacitor connection | 0.01µF improves reference noise and PSRR; larger values further reduce noise but slightly increase turn-on time. |
| VOUT1 / VOUT2 | Regulated outputs | 1.5V (fixed) and 1.2V/1.0V (selectable) outputs stable with 1µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitors-no ESR constraints. |
| GND | Power ground | Single ground plane required; thermal pad (exposed bottom) must be soldered to PCB ground for θJA = 70°C/W. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent enable control | EN1/EN2 allow asymmetric power-up/down sequencing-e.g., keep LDO1 active for memory retention while disabling LDO2 during sleep. |
| Voltage-select function on LDO2 | /VSC2 toggles VOUT2 between 1.2V (active mode) and 1.0V (standby), reducing dynamic power by ~30% at same frequency. |
| Adjustable POR2 delay | CSET2 sets reset hold time from 0s (pin open) to >10s (10µF)-eliminates need for external RC timer in boot-critical systems. |
| Stability with 1µF ceramic output caps | Eliminates bulk tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitors-reduces board area, cost, and failure risk in portable designs. |
| Zero-off-mode current | 0.01µA shutdown current per disabled LDO-extends shelf life and battery storage time in consumer electronics. |
Applications
| Mobile Phone Baseband | GPS Navigation Module |

| Portable Media Player SoC | Digital Still Camera Image Sensor |
Use Scenario: Powering ARM9-based media processor with dynamic voltage scaling: 1.5V for video decode, 1.2V for audio playback, 1.0V for idle. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR uses /VSC2 and EN2 to switch LDO2 voltage and enable state in concert with CPU DVFS commands.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-LDO with POR and voltage select applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS70245PWPR | Fixed 1.5V/3.3V outputs; no voltage select; POR delay not adjustable; 16-pin TSSOP package. | Suitable for non-scaling dual-rail systems where higher VOUT2 is acceptable; lacks standby power optimization. | Choose when fixed 3.3V I/O rail is needed and PCB layout accommodates larger TSSOP footprint. |
| MAX8526ETE+ | 1.2V/1.2V fixed dual outputs; integrated watchdog timer; 10-pin µMAX package; no POR delay adjustment. | Targets always-on monitoring applications; missing /VSC2 functionality eliminates adaptive voltage scaling capability. | Prefer when system-level watchdog supervision is required and voltage select is unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS70245PWPR and MAX8526ETE+, the MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR uniquely combines 1.2V/1.0V voltage select, CSET2-programmable POR delay, and 2.5mm × 2.5mm Thin MLF packaging-enabling smaller form factors and finer-grained power management in battery-constrained designs.

FAQ
What are the exact output voltages configured for MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR?
The MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR is factory-configured with VOUT1 = 1.5V (fixed) and VOUT2 = 1.2V nominal, with voltage select (/VSC2) enabling a secondary 1.0V output level. This dual-voltage capability on LDO2 supports dynamic power scaling in portable SoCs without requiring external switching circuitry.
How does the CSET2 pin affect POR2 timing in MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR?
In the MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR, the CSET2 pin sets POR2 delay by connecting an external capacitor to GND: 1µF yields ~1 second of reset hold time. Leaving CSET2 open results in zero-delay assertion. This programmability allows precise synchronization with downstream logic boot sequences without adding discrete timing components.
Can MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR operate with only one LDO enabled?
Yes-the MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR supports independent control via EN1 and EN2. Disabling LDO2 (EN2 = low) reduces total ground current to ~7µA, while LDO1 remains fully functional. This asymmetrical operation enables partial-system wake-up and extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes.
What capacitor types are recommended for MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR output stability?
The MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR requires ≥1µF ceramic output capacitors per rail, with X5R or X7R dielectrics strongly recommended for stable capacitance over temperature. Y5V and Z5U dielectrics are discouraged due to >50% capacitance loss across –40°C to +85°C, risking instability and poor transient response.
Is MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR compatible with modern RoHS and REACH requirements?
Yes-the MIC5316-F4CYMT-TR uses Micrel's Thin MLF® package, which is RoHS-compliant (lead-free NiPdAu finish) and halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. Its manufacturing process meets current REACH SVHC thresholds, and full compliance documentation is available through Microchip Technology's product change notifications.
