Product details
Overview
MIC5371-SSYMT-TR from Micrel is a dual-channel, high-accuracy, low-dropout linear regulator IC delivering two independent 150mA outputs at fixed 3.3V/3.3V, housed in a 1.6mm × 1.6mm Thin MLF® package. It features ±2% initial output accuracy, 155mV dropout at full load, and ultra-low 32µA quiescent current per LDO - optimized for battery-powered camera phones and portable handhelds requiring tight voltage regulation and fast transient response.
For engineers reviewing the MIC5371-SSYMT-TR datasheet, MIC5371-SSYMT-TR pinout, MIC5371-SSYMT-TR application, or MIC5371-SSYMT-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include dual independent enable control, auto-discharge functionality (30Ω typical discharge FET), stable operation with 1µF ceramic output capacitors, and thermal shutdown/current-limit protection across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range.
Technical Context
The MIC5371-SSYMT-TR integrates two CMOS-based LDO regulators sharing a common input (VIN) and ground (GND), each with dedicated active-high enable inputs (EN1, EN2) and independent output pins (VOUT1, VOUT2). Its architecture includes an internal reference, error amplifiers, and pass transistors optimized for low-noise (200µVRMS) and high PSRR (60dB @ 1kHz).
Unlike the MIC5370 variant, the MIC5371-SSYMT-TR adds an integrated auto-discharge circuit activated when either EN pin is driven low - applying a 30Ω resistive load to the corresponding output to rapidly deplete external capacitance. This eliminates residual voltage hold-up during power sequencing in multi-rail portable systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V / 3.3V - eliminates external feedback network; supports dual-core SoC I/O and core rail separation. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA per channel - sufficient for baseband processors, camera ISPs, and RF front-end biasing without thermal derating in 1.6mm × 1.6mm footprint. |
| Dropout Voltage | 155mV @ 150mA - enables operation down to 3.455V input for 3.3V outputs, critical for Li-ion battery discharge tail-end support. |
| Quiescent Current | 32µA per LDO - reduces standby power loss in always-on subsystems such as GPS receivers or sensor hubs. |
| Output Accuracy | ±2% initial, ±3% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable logic-level compliance for 3.3V-tolerant interfaces (e.g., SDIO, UART, I²C). |
| PSRR | 60dB @ 1kHz - suppresses switching noise from adjacent DC/DC converters in compact PCB layouts. |
| Auto-Discharge | 30Ω typical NFET per output - discharges 10µF output cap in <1ms, preventing unintended wake-up or latch-up in power-gated domains. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin 1.6mm × 1.6mm Thin MLF® (Pb-free, halogen-free, NiPdAu finish), exposed thermal pad internally connected to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | Supply Input | Common input for both LDOs; accepts 2.5V–5.5V; requires 1µF ceramic decoupling to GND. |
| 2 - GND | Ground Reference | Power and signal return; connects to exposed EPAD for thermal conduction and noise reduction. |
| 3 - EN2 | Enable Input (LDO2) | Active-high logic control; drives LDO2 output on/off; must not float - tie to GND or host GPIO. |
| 4 - EN1 | Enable Input (LDO1) | Independent active-high control for LDO1; enables staggered power-up/down sequencing. |
| 5 - VOUT2 | LDO2 Output | Regulated 3.3V supply; auto-discharged via internal 30Ω FET when EN2 = low. |
| 6 - VOUT1 | LDO1 Output | Regulated 3.3V supply; auto-discharged via internal 30Ω FET when EN1 = low. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent enable control | EN1/EN2 allow per-rail power gating - essential for dynamic voltage scaling in mobile APs and camera modules. |
| Auto-discharge circuit | 30Ω internal discharge FET per output - eliminates need for external bleed resistors and saves board space in space-constrained designs. |
| Stable with 1µF ceramic caps | Eliminates requirement for large bulk capacitors - reduces BOM cost and PCB area while maintaining stability across temperature. |
| Thermal shutdown & current limit | Protects against short-circuit or overload events up to 550mA peak - prevents damage during hot-plug or ESD-induced faults. |
| Low-noise output | 200µVRMS integrated noise (10Hz–100kHz) - suitable for noise-sensitive analog blocks like ADC references or RF synthesizers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MIC5370-SSYMT-TR | No auto-discharge; identical pinout, specs, and package - only differs in EN-driven output discharge capability. | Suitable where output hold-up is acceptable or external discharge is implemented. | Select MIC5370-SSYMT-TR if auto-discharge is unnecessary and cost minimization is prioritized. |
| Torex XC6223D331MR-G | Single-output 3.3V LDO (150mA); no dual-channel or auto-discharge; 1.2V–6.0V input range. | Requires two devices for dual-rail use; lacks independent enable and discharge control. | Choose only when single-rail operation suffices and board area allows duplication. |
Compared with MIC5371-SSYMT-TR, the MIC5370-SSYMT-TR omits auto-discharge but matches all electrical and mechanical specs - making it a lower-cost alternative where controlled power-down isn't required. The XC6223D331MR-G provides comparable single-rail performance but increases component count and design complexity for dual-rail needs.

FAQ
What is the primary functional difference between MIC5371-SSYMT-TR and MIC5370-SSYMT-TR?
The MIC5371-SSYMT-TR includes an integrated auto-discharge circuit that applies a 30Ω load to each output when its respective enable pin is driven low - rapidly discharging external capacitors. The MIC5370-SSYMT-TR lacks this feature and holds output voltage after disable unless external discharge components are added. All other electrical and mechanical specifications match identically.
Does MIC5371-SSYMT-TR require external components for stability?
No. The MIC5371-SSYMT-TR is stable with only 1µF ceramic output capacitors per rail and a 1µF ceramic input capacitor - no additional compensation networks, ESR requirements, or bypass capacitors are needed. X5R/X7R dielectrics are recommended; Y5V types are discouraged due to temperature-dependent capacitance loss.
Can MIC5371-SSYMT-TR operate with a 2.5V input while delivering 3.3V outputs?
No. The MIC5371-SSYMT-TR cannot regulate 3.3V outputs from a 2.5V input because its minimum input voltage must exceed the output voltage by at least the dropout voltage (155mV @ 150mA). A 2.5V input is below the required 3.455V minimum for 3.3V regulation. Valid input range is 2.5V–5.5V, but usable minimum depends on output voltage and load.
What thermal considerations apply to MIC5371-SSYMT-TR in continuous 150mA dual-rail operation?
At 150mA per rail with 3.6V input and 3.3V outputs, MIC5371-SSYMT-TR dissipates ~0.135W. With θJA = 90°C/W, junction temperature rise is ~12°C above ambient. For safe operation up to +125°C junction, maximum ambient temperature is ~113°C - though PCB copper area and airflow significantly influence real-world thermal performance.
Is MIC5371-SSYMT-TR compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes. The MIC5371-SSYMT-TR uses a Pb-free (RoHS-compliant) 1.6mm × 1.6mm Thin MLF® package with NiPdAu lead finish and halogen-free mold compound, rated for standard lead-free reflow profiles with peak temperatures up to 260°C for 10 seconds.
