Product details
Overview
MIC5371-MFYMT-TR from Micrel is a dual-output, high-performance LDO regulator delivering 150mA per channel with fixed 2.8V and 1.5V outputs in a 6-pin 1.6mm × 1.6mm Thin MLF® package. It features ±2% initial output accuracy, 155mV dropout at 150mA, 32µA typical ground current per LDO, and integrated auto-discharge circuitry for rapid output capacitor discharge during shutdown - optimized for camera DSP power supply and portable electronics.
For engineers reviewing the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR datasheet, MIC5371-MFYMT-TR pinout, MIC5371-MFYMT-TR application, or MIC5371-MFYMT-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include dual independent enable control, low-noise operation (200µVRMS), 60dB PSRR at 1kHz, RoHS-compliant Pb-free packaging, and thermal-shutdown protection across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range.
Technical Context
The MIC5371-MFYMT-TR integrates two independent CMOS-based LDO regulators sharing a common input (VIN) and ground (GND), each with dedicated active-high enable pins (EN1, EN2) and output terminals (VOUT1 = 2.8V, VOUT2 = 1.5V). Its architecture includes internal reference, error amplifiers, pass transistors, and an auto-discharge NFET (30Ω typical) activated only when both enables are low.
It operates across 2.5V–5.5V input voltage, maintains stability with 1µF ceramic output capacitors, and delivers fast transient response due to high bandwidth design. Ground current scales linearly with load (≤85µA total under full dual-load conditions), and ripple rejection remains ≥60dB up to 1kHz without external compensation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltages | 2.8V (VOUT1) and 1.5V (VOUT2), fixed, non-adjustable |
| Max Output Current | 150mA per LDO - supports simultaneous dual-rail loads without derating |
| Dropout Voltage | 155mV at 150mA - enables operation with ≤300mV headroom above 2.8V rail |
| Output Accuracy | ±2% initial, ±3% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable core/DSP voltage margining |
| Ground Current | 32µA per LDO (typical) - minimizes battery drain in standby mode |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent enable control | EN1 and EN2 allow staggered power-up/down sequencing for SoC core/peripheral rails |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS70245PWPR | 2.5V/1.5V outputs; higher 250mA per channel; 220mV dropout; no auto-discharge | Requires external discharge resistors; better suited for higher-current microcontroller domains | Select when >150mA per rail or tighter load regulation (<0.5%) is required |
| RT9013-2815GB | 2.8V/1.5V outputs; 300mA per channel; 200mV dropout; 50µA quiescent current; no auto-discharge | Larger 2mm × 2mm DFN package; lacks integrated discharge path for fast rail collapse | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where board space permits larger footprint and external discharge is acceptable |
Compared with TPS70245PWPR and RT9013-2815GB, the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR uniquely combines ultra-small 1.6mm × 1.6mm footprint, guaranteed 1µF stability, and built-in auto-discharge - making it optimal for space-constrained portable devices requiring deterministic power-rail collapse without added components.

FAQ
What output voltages does the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR provide?
The MIC5371-MFYMT-TR provides fixed 2.8V on VOUT1 and 1.5V on VOUT2. These values are factory-trimmed and non-adjustable. The part marking "MFY" corresponds to the 2.8V/1.5V variant per Micrel's ordering guide, and output accuracy is ±2% initial with ±3% over –40°C to +125°C operating range. No external feedback resistors are used or supported.
Does the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR include auto-discharge functionality?
Yes, the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR includes auto-discharge circuitry - a key differentiator from the MIC5370 series. When either EN1 or EN2 is driven low, the corresponding output (VOUT1 or VOUT2) connects to an internal 30Ω NFET that discharges the external output capacitor. This feature is confirmed in the block diagram, pin description, and Electrical Characteristics table of the official datasheet.
What is the minimum input voltage required for the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR to regulate at full 150mA load?
At 150mA load, the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR requires VIN ≥ VOUT + dropout voltage. For VOUT1 = 2.8V and dropout = 155mV (typical), minimum VIN = 2.955V. For VOUT2 = 1.5V, same dropout applies, so VIN ≥ 1.655V - but system-level input must meet the device's absolute minimum of 2.5V. Thus, full 150mA operation on both rails requires VIN ≥ 2.955V.
Can the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR operate stably with less than 1µF output capacitance?
No - the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR is specified and characterized for stability only with ≥1µF ceramic output capacitors (X5R/X7R dielectric). The datasheet explicitly states "The MIC5370/1 requires an output capacitor of 1µF or greater to maintain stability" and warns that high-ESR or undersized caps may cause oscillation. Operation below 1µF is not guaranteed and violates design validation requirements.
What package type and dimensions does the MIC5371-MFYMT-TR use?
The MIC5371-MFYMT-TR uses a 6-pin 1.6mm × 1.6mm Thin MLF® (MicroLeadFrame) package with exposed thermal pad (EPAD), per Micrel's ordering information and Pin Configuration diagram. It is RoHS-compliant, Pb-free, with NiPdAu lead finish and halogen-free mold compound - designated "YMT" in the part number suffix and confirmed in the Package Information section.
