MIC59300 Ultra High Speed 3A LDO General Description Features The MIC59300 is a high-bandwidth, low-dropout, 3A linear Input voltage range: voltage regulator ideal for powering core voltages of low- V = 1.0V to 3.8V IN power microprocessors. The MIC59300 implements a dual V = 3.0V to 5.5V BIAS supply conguration allowing for a very low output Stable with 1F ceramic capacitor impedance and a very fast transient response. 1% initial tolerance The MIC59300 requires a bias input supply and a main Maximum dropout voltage of 500mV over temperature input supply, allowing for ultra-low input voltages on the main supply rail. The device operates from an input supply Adjustable output voltage down to 0.5V of 1.0V to 3.8V and bias supply between 3V and 5.5V. The Ultra fast transient response MIC59300 offers xed output voltages and adjustable Excellent line and load regulation specifications output voltages down to 0.5V. Logic controlled shutdown option The MIC59300 requires a minimum output capacitance for Thermal shutdown and current limit protection stability, working optimally with small ceramic capacitors. Junction temperature range: 40 C to +125C The MIC59300 is available in a 5-pin TO-263 and an 8-pin TO-263 & 8-pin EPAD SOIC EPAD SOIC package and its junction temperature range is 40C to +125C.
