Product details
Overview
MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR from Microchip Technology is a high-performance 150 mA low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) with 1.5 V fixed output, 2.5–6 V input range, 155 mV dropout at full load, ±2% output accuracy, and stable operation with 1 μF ceramic output capacitors. It delivers precision voltage regulation for space-constrained USB dongles, battery-powered sensors, and portable computing peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR datasheet, MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR pinout, MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR application, or MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR equivalent, this device offers verified thermal shutdown, active-high enable control, 29 μA quiescent current, and 70 dB PSRR - critical for noise-sensitive analog and mixed-signal subsystems requiring stable 1.5 V bias rails.
Technical Context
The MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR implements a CMOS-based LDO architecture with internal reference, error amplifier, and pass transistor optimized for fast transient response and low ground current. Its enable logic is CMOS-compatible with 0.2 V logic-low and 1.2 V logic-high thresholds, and it enters near-zero-current shutdown (<1 μA) when disabled.
Designed for ultra-small footprints, it operates across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and supports stable regulation with no-load conditions - essential for CMOS RAM keep-alive and always-on subsystems. It is not suitable for RF transmitter systems per official specification.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.5 V ±2% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures consistent core/bias rail for low-voltage logic and analog ICs. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5 V to 6.0 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2 V), USB 5 V, and 6 V AC adapters. |
| Max Output Current | 150 mA continuous - sufficient for microcontrollers, sensors, and interface ICs in compact portable designs. |
| Dropout Voltage | 155 mV @ 150 mA - enables >1.65 V input to sustain 1.5 V output, maximizing battery runtime in brownout conditions. |
| Quiescent Current | 29 μA typical - minimizes standby power loss in battery-backed applications such as real-time clocks or wake-on-event circuits. |
| PSRR | 70 dB (typ.) - suppresses ripple from noisy switchers or shared power rails, preserving signal integrity in ADCs and RF receivers. |
| Enable Threshold | Logic-high ≥1.2 V, logic-low ≤0.2 V - interoperable with 1.8 V and 3.3 V GPIO without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5-Lead TSOT23-5 (YD5), 1.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.9 mm body, exposed thermal pad (EP) connected to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VIN) | Supply Input | Primary DC input connection; must be decoupled with ≥1 μF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability. |
| 2 (EN) | Enable Input | Active-high digital control; drives output ON/OFF; requires pull-up or direct MCU GPIO; floating state prohibited. |
| 3 (VOUT) | Regulated Output | 1.5 V fixed output; supplies downstream loads; requires ≥1 μF ceramic capacitor to GND for loop stability. |
| 4 (GND) | Ground Reference | Analog/digital return path; must be low-impedance; connects to EP for thermal dissipation. |
| 5 (NC) | No Connect | Not internally bonded; electrically isolated; must remain unconnected on PCB. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-small footprint | TSOT23-5 package occupies only 3.04 mm² PCB area - 75% smaller than SC-70, enabling dense portable layouts. |
| Low-noise regulation | 200 μVRMS output noise (10 Hz–100 kHz) - preserves SNR in audio codecs, precision ADCs, and RF front-end biasing. |
| Zero-off-mode current | <1 μA shutdown current - eliminates battery drain in powered-down states for multi-year coin-cell operation. |
| Robust protection | Integrated thermal shutdown and current limiting (200–550 mA) - prevents damage during short-circuit or overload events. |
| No-load stability | Maintains regulation with 0 mA load - supports always-on memory retention and wake-up circuitry without external dummy loads. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP1700T-1502E/TT | 150 mA, 1.5 V fixed, SOT23-3 package, 170 mV dropout @ 250 mA, 1.8–6.0 V input | No enable pin; 3-pin design simplifies layout but lacks controlled sequencing | Select when enable functionality is unnecessary and board space permits slightly higher dropout margin. |
| TPS7A0515PDBVR | 200 mA, 1.5 V fixed, SOT23-5, 130 mV dropout @ 200 mA, 1.4–5.5 V input, 25 μA IQ | Lower dropout and IQ, but rated only to +125°C (not extended temp); different pinout (EN on Pin 3) | Prefer for higher current or lower IQ needs in commercial-temp industrial designs where extended temp is not required. |
Compared with MCP1700T-1502E/TT and TPS7A0515PDBVR, the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR uniquely combines extended temperature support (–40°C to +125°C), active-high enable in TSOT23-5, and proven stability with 1 μF ceramics - making it optimal for ruggedized portable electronics requiring guaranteed performance across full automotive-grade thermal ranges.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR?
The MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR has an absolute maximum input voltage of +7 V, but its specified operating range is +2.5 V to +6.0 V. Exceeding 6.0 V may cause permanent damage or violate functional specifications. For reliable operation, maintain VIN within 2.5–6.0 V, especially under transient conditions where overshoot could approach the 7 V limit.
Does the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR require an external pull-up resistor on the EN pin?
Yes - the EN pin of the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR is CMOS-input and must never be left floating. A pull-up resistor (typically 100 kΩ to VIN or 3.3 V) ensures deterministic startup and prevents indeterminate output states. The MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR will not function reliably without proper EN biasing, as confirmed in Section 4.4 of the datasheet.
Can the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR operate without an output capacitor?
No - the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR requires a minimum 1 μF ceramic output capacitor connected from VOUT to GND for stability, as explicitly stated in Sections 4.2 and 5.0. Omitting it risks oscillation, poor transient response, or failure to regulate. X5R/X7R dielectrics are recommended; Y5V is not suitable due to capacitance loss over temperature.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR package?
The MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR uses the 5-Lead TSOT23 package, which has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 253°C/W, per Table 4-1 in the datasheet. This value assumes standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions; actual θJA improves with PCB copper area, thermal vias to inner ground planes, and connection of the exposed pad (EP) to GND.
Is the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR suitable for RF transmitter power supply applications?
No - the MIC5317-1.5YD5-TR is explicitly stated as "not suitable for RF transmitter systems" in Section 4.0 of the datasheet. While its 70 dB PSRR benefits RF receivers and analog front-ends, its architecture and characterization do not guarantee performance under the high-frequency, high-dV/dt, and pulsed-current demands of RF power amplifiers.
