Product details
Overview
MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 from Microchip Technology is a dual low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) delivering two independent 300 mA outputs at fixed 2.8 V each, operating from 2.5 V to 5.5 V input. It features ±2% output accuracy, 160 mV dropout at full load, 37 µA typical quiescent current per LDO, and integrated output discharge circuitry. It is designed for space-constrained battery-powered portable electronics requiring stable dual-rail power with fast transient response.
For engineers reviewing the MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 datasheet, MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 pinout, MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 application, or MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-output independence, auto-discharge capability on disable, internal enable pull-down, stability with 1 µF ceramic capacitors, and operation across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range.
Technical Context
The MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 integrates two fully independent LDO regulators sharing only ground and package thermal mass - each with dedicated VIN, VOUT, and EN pins. Its architecture supports independent power inputs and enables simultaneous or staggered enable/disable control without cross-regulator interference.
It implements an internal 25 Ω NFET discharge path activated when either EN pin is low, ensuring rapid output capacitor discharge. The internal 4 MΩ enable pull-down resistor guarantees default-off behavior during tri-state control, eliminating external bias components required by earlier variants like MIC5396/MIC5397.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 2.8 V / 2.8 V - Fixed dual-rail output; eliminates need for external feedback resistors and ensures matched rail timing in dual-core or I/O + core supply schemes. |
| Max Output Current | 300 mA per channel - Sustains full load on both outputs simultaneously; supports high-efficiency power partitioning in portable SoC subsystems. |
| Dropout Voltage | 160 mV at 300 mA - Enables regulation down to VIN = 2.96 V, extending usable battery life in single-cell Li-ion (2.8–4.2 V) applications. |
| Quiescent Current | 37 µA per LDO (typ.) - Minimizes standby power loss; critical for always-on sensor or RTC rails in ultra-low-power wake-up architectures. |
| Accuracy | ±2% over –40°C to +125°C - Ensures reliable voltage margin compliance for 2.8 V I/O standards (e.g., SDIO, USB PHY, LPDDR2) across industrial temperature range. |
| PSRR | 60 dB at 1 kHz - Suppresses switching noise from upstream DC/DC converters, preserving signal integrity in analog and RF-adjacent circuits. |
| Enable Input Logic | Active-high with 4 MΩ internal pull-down - Eliminates need for external pull-down resistors; prevents unintended turn-on during MCU reset or GPIO initialization. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead Extra Thin DFN (X2DFN), 1.6 mm × 1.2 mm × 0.35 mm body, exposed thermal pad (ePad) connected to GND. RoHS-compliant, Pb-free matte tin finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4 | GND | Common analog/digital ground reference; must be low-impedance connection to PCB ground plane and ePad for thermal and noise performance. |
| 2 | VOUT1 | Regulated 2.8 V output for Channel 1; requires ≥1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and transient response. |
| 3 | VOUT2 | Regulated 2.8 V output for Channel 2; electrically isolated from VOUT1; supports independent load sequencing and fault containment. |
| 5 | EN2 | Active-high enable for Channel 2; internal 4 MΩ pull-down ensures OFF state when un-driven; compatible with 1.2–5.5 V logic. |
| 6 | VIN2 | Input supply for Channel 2; may differ from VIN1 to optimize source impedance or battery tap point; requires local 1 µF decoupling. |
| 7 | VIN1 | Input supply for Channel 1; supports independent input sourcing (e.g., separate battery cell, DC/DC output, or PMIC rail). |
| 8 | EN1 | Active-high enable for Channel 1; identical internal pull-down and voltage thresholds as EN2; enables independent power gating per rail. |
| EP | ePad | Exposed thermal pad; must be soldered to solid GND copper area with ≥4 thermal vias for effective heat dissipation and junction temperature control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Output Discharge Circuit | 25 Ω internal NFET per channel - Discharges output caps within microseconds upon disable, preventing back-powering or latch-up in multi-rail systems. |

FAQ
What is the output voltage configuration of the MIC5399-MMYMX-T5?
The MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 delivers two fixed 2.8 V outputs - VOUT1 and VOUT2 - as defined by its "MM" voltage option code. This matched dual-rail configuration eliminates external feedback networks and supports symmetric power domains for sensors, interfaces, or redundant subsystems without voltage mismatch concerns.
Does the MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 require external pull-down resistors on its enable pins?
No. The MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 integrates a 4 MΩ internal pull-down resistor on both EN1 and EN2 pins, ensuring automatic disable when control signals are floating or undriven. This feature removes the need for external components and guarantees safe power-down during MCU reset or initialization sequences.
How does the output discharge function operate in the MIC5399-MMYMX-T5?
When either EN1 or EN2 is driven low, the MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 activates an internal 25 Ω NFET between the corresponding VOUT pin and GND. This discharges the output capacitor rapidly - typically within tens of microseconds - preventing back-powering, latch-up, or unintended wake-up in multi-rail systems.
What capacitor values are required for stable operation of the MIC5399-MMYMX-T5?
The MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 is optimized for 1 µF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitors on both input (VIN1/VIN2) and output (VOUT1/VOUT2) nodes. Larger values do not improve stability or transient response; Y5V/Z5U dielectrics are discouraged due to excessive capacitance drift over temperature.
Is the MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 suitable for automotive applications?
The MIC5399-MMYMX-T5 is rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature and meets industrial reliability standards, but it is not AEC-Q200 qualified. For automotive applications requiring qualification, consult Microchip's AEC-Q200-certified LDO portfolio; this device is intended for industrial, medical, and consumer portable equipment.
