Product details
Overview
MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR from Microchip Technology is a high-performance 150 mA low-dropout linear regulator delivering a fixed 1.2 V output, operating from 2.5 V to 6.0 V input, with 2% initial output accuracy, 155 mV dropout at full load, and stable operation using only 1 μF ceramic output capacitance. It serves as a compact, low-noise power supply for space-constrained digital subsystems in portable and USB-powered devices.
For engineers reviewing the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR datasheet, MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR pinout, MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR application, or MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its TSOT23-5 package footprint, active-high enable functionality, thermal shutdown protection, PSRR of 70 dB at 1 kHz, and guaranteed operation across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
Technical Context
The MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with internal reference, error amplifier, and pass transistor-optimized for fast transient response and minimal quiescent current. Its design supports zero-current shutdown mode (≤1 μA) via active-high EN pin and maintains regulation under no-load conditions.
It achieves 70 dB PSRR up to 10 kHz and delivers 150 mA output while sustaining <29 μA ground current at light loads. The device is thermally protected and includes foldback current limiting, but is explicitly not suitable for RF transmitter systems per manufacturer specification.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.2 V ±2% (initial accuracy), stable over –40°C to +125°C junction range |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5 V to 6.0 V - enables direct use with USB 5 V, 3.3 V rails, or 6 V AC adapters |
| Max Output Current | 150 mA - sufficient for powering core logic, sensors, or interface ICs in compact systems |
| Dropout Voltage | 155 mV @ 150 mA - ensures regulation down to VIN = 1.355 V, critical for battery-end-of-life operation |
| Quiescent Current | 29 μA typical - minimizes standby power loss in always-on or low-power wake-up circuits |
| PSRR | 70 dB @ 1 kHz - suppresses ripple from noisy switching supplies feeding the LDO input |
| Enable Threshold | Logic-high EN ≥1.2 V, logic-low EN ≤0.2 V - compatible with standard 1.8 V/3.3 V GPIO without level shifting |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5-Lead TSOT23-5 (D5), RoHS-compliant, 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.9 mm body height, exposed thermal pad (EP) connected to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | Supply Input | Primary DC input (2.5–6.0 V); requires 1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND |
| 2 - EN | Enable Control | Active-high digital control; must be pulled high (>1.2 V) to enable output; floating prohibited |
| 3 - VOUT | Regulated Output | Fixed 1.2 V supply rail; stable with ≥1 μF ceramic output capacitor (X5R/X7R) |
| 4 - GND | Ground Reference | Analog/digital return path; connects internally to EP for thermal conduction |
| 5 - NC | No Connect | Not internally bonded; must remain unconnected on PCB; no routing or stitching |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-small TSOT23-5 footprint | 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm area - reduces board space vs. SOT23-5 by ~30%, ideal for USB dongles and wearables |
| Low-noise regulation | 200 μVRMS output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz) - preserves signal integrity in ADC references and RF receivers |
| Zero-off-mode shutdown | ≤1 μA shutdown current - enables true power gating in battery-backed memory or sleep-state subsystems |
| Robust fault protection | Thermal shutdown + current limit (200–550 mA) - prevents damage during short-circuit or overload events |
| Wide temperature operation | –40°C to +125°C junction range - qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood auxiliary rails |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-1202E/TT | 150 mA, 1.2 V fixed, SOT23-3 package, 170 mV dropout @ 250 mA, 2.3 μA IQ | No enable pin; 3-pin configuration limits control flexibility in power-sequenced systems | Select when board space is extremely constrained and enable control is unnecessary |
| Torex XC6210B122MR-G | 150 mA, 1.2 V fixed, SOT25 package, 200 mV dropout @ 150 mA, 1.0 μA IQ in shutdown | Active-low CE pin; different pinout (VIN–GND–VOUT–CE–NC) requires layout change | Prefer when ultra-low shutdown current is prioritized over pin compatibility |
Compared with MCP1700T-1202E/TT and XC6210B122MR-G, the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR uniquely combines active-high enable, TSOT23-5 pinout, and 70 dB PSRR - making it optimal for USB-powered designs needing both controllability and noise immunity.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR over temperature?
The MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR guarantees ±3.0% output voltage variation over the full –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range, with ±2.0% initial accuracy at +25°C. This ensures reliable 1.2 V regulation for core logic even under extreme thermal stress in enclosed or high-power-density environments where the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR operates.
Can the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR operate with only 1 µF output capacitance?
Yes - the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR is specifically designed and characterized for stability with a minimum 1 µF X5R or X7R ceramic output capacitor. Larger values do not improve performance significantly, and Y5V dielectrics are discouraged due to excessive capacitance loss over temperature. This simplifies BOM and layout for the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR.
Does the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR support reverse-voltage protection?
No - the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR does not include reverse-voltage protection. Applying reverse polarity to VIN or VOUT may cause permanent damage. External protection diodes or MOSFET-based reverse-polarity circuits must be added if system-level reverse-input risk exists. This limitation applies strictly to the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR and is documented in Absolute Maximum Ratings.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR package?
The MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR uses the TSOT23-5 (D5) package, which has a specified junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 253°C/W under standard JEDEC test conditions. With proper PCB copper pour and thermal vias to the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR's exposed pad, actual θJA can be reduced by 20–40% in optimized layouts.
Is the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR suitable for RF transmitter power rails?
No - the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR is explicitly stated in the datasheet as "not suitable for RF transmitter systems." While it provides excellent PSRR for receiver-side noise rejection, its architecture and characterization do not cover RF PA biasing requirements such as transient current slew rate, phase noise contribution, or high-frequency impedance stability - critical for RF transmitter operation with the MIC5317-1.2YD5-TR.
