Product details
Overview
MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ from Micrel is a fixed-output 2.85V, 150mA low-dropout linear regulator in a 4-pin 1mm × 1mm Thin MLF package, featuring auto-discharge on disable, ±2% initial output accuracy, 155mV dropout at 150mA, and 29µA quiescent current - deployed in portable electronics requiring ultra-low power and rapid output discharge during sleep mode.
For engineers reviewing the MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ datasheet, MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ pinout, MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ application, or MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ equivalent, key selection criteria include enable-active-high logic compatibility, 2.5V–5.5V input range, thermal shutdown protection, and stable operation with 1µF ceramic output capacitors in space-constrained battery-powered designs.
Technical Context
The MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ integrates a CMOS-based pass element with internal feedback control to maintain regulation across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature. Its auto-discharge function uses an internal NFET (30Ω typical) between VOUT and GND, activated only when EN is low - enabling fast output voltage decay without external circuitry.
It delivers high PSRR (70dB up to 1kHz, 65dB up to 10kHz) and excellent load transient response due to high-bandwidth error amplifier design. Ground current remains stable at 29µA (typ) from no-load to full 150mA, and drops to ≤1µA in shutdown - critical for maintaining system-level standby power budgets.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 2.85V ±2% initial accuracy ensures reliable biasing of 2.8V–3.0V I/O domains in mobile SoCs and PMICs. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA guaranteed - sufficient to power RF transceivers, sensor interfaces, or low-power microcontrollers without derating. |
| Dropout Voltage | 155mV @ 150mA - enables operation from 3.0V supply while sustaining 2.85V output, maximizing battery runtime in single-cell Li-ion systems. |
| Quiescent Current | 29µA typical - minimizes no-load power loss in always-on subsystems such as real-time clocks or wake-up controllers. |
| PSRR | 70dB @ 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters, preserving signal integrity in mixed-signal audio or RF sections. |
| Auto-Discharge Resistance | 30Ω typical (MIC5366 only) - discharges 1µF output capacitor from 2.85V to <100mV in <32µs, meeting fast-wake timing requirements. |
| Enable Threshold | Logic-high ≥1.2V, logic-low ≤0.2V - compatible with 1.8V/3.3V GPIOs without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 4-pin 1mm × 1mm Thin MLF (RoHS-compliant, NiPdAu lead finish, exposed heatsink pad). Pin 1 identified by ▲ mark.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT | Regulated output node | Delivers stable 2.85V; requires ≥1µF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor to ground for stability. |
| GND | Power and signal reference | Must be connected directly to low-impedance PCB ground plane; ties to exposed heatsink pad for thermal performance. |
| EN | Active-high digital control input | Pulled high to enable regulation; pulled low to disable and activate auto-discharge; must not float. |
| VIN | Unregulated input supply | Accepts 2.5V–5.5V; requires 1µF ceramic input capacitor to ground for EMI filtering and loop stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-small footprint | 1mm² board area - 75% smaller than SC-70-5, enabling placement in tight spaces behind displays or near RF modules. |
| Auto-discharge circuit | Integrated 30Ω NFET activated only during EN = low - eliminates need for external bleed resistor and saves BOM cost. |
| Low-noise operation | 200µVRMS (10Hz–100kHz) - avoids interference in precision analog front-ends or ADC reference supplies. |
| Robust protection | Thermal shutdown + foldback current limiting - prevents damage during output short or overload without latch-up. |
| Capacitor flexibility | Stable with 1µF ceramic output caps (X5R/X7R); no ESR requirements - simplifies layout and reduces component count. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MIC5365-2.85YMT-TZ | No auto-discharge; identical pinout, specs except EN-controlled discharge path | Suitable where fast VOUT decay is unnecessary and lowest possible BOM cost is prioritized | Select when system does not require controlled output discharge during sleep transitions. |

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ?
The MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ has an absolute maximum input voltage of 6V, but its recommended operating input range is 2.5V to 5.5V. Exceeding 5.5V may trigger internal protection or degrade long-term reliability. The device is commonly used with 3.3V or 3.6V Li-ion battery sources, where the 155mV dropout ensures regulation down to ~2.95V battery voltage.
Does MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ require an external discharge resistor?
No, MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ does not require an external discharge resistor. It integrates an auto-discharge NFET (30Ω typical) that activates automatically when the EN pin is driven low, discharging the output capacitor rapidly. This eliminates BOM cost and PCB area otherwise needed for discrete discharge solutions - a key differentiator from MIC5365 variants.
Can MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ operate stably with a 0.47µF output capacitor?
No - MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ requires a minimum 1µF ceramic output capacitor (X5R or X7R dielectric) for guaranteed stability across temperature and load. Using 0.47µF risks high-frequency oscillation due to phase margin degradation. The datasheet explicitly specifies "stable with 1µF ceramic output capacitors" and warns against high-ESR or low-capacitance alternatives.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of the MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ package?
The MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ uses the 4-pin 1mm × 1mm Thin MLF package with a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 240°C/W under standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions. This value assumes proper connection of the exposed heatsink pad to a thermal copper plane - failure to do so increases θJA significantly and limits safe continuous output current.
Is MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ pin-compatible with MIC5365-2.85YMT-TZ?
Yes, MIC5366-2.85YMT-TZ is pin-compatible with MIC5365-2.85YMT-TZ in the same 4-pin Thin MLF package: both share identical VIN, GND, EN, and VOUT pin assignments and mechanical footprint. The only functional difference is the presence of the auto-discharge circuit in the MIC5366 variant - no PCB layout change is required when upgrading from MIC5365 to MIC5366 for enhanced system wake-up behavior.
