Note 1:
—
The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of ambient temperature, the maximum allowable
junction temperature and the thermal resistance from junction to air (i.e., TA, TJ, JA). Exceeding the
maximum allowable power dissipation will cause the device operating junction temperature to exceed the
maximum +125°C rating. Sustained junction temperatures above +125°C can impact the device reliability.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The MIC3775 is a high-performance low-dropout
voltage regulator suitable for moderate to high-current
voltage regulator applications. Its 500 mV dropout
voltage at full load and over temperature makes it
especially valuable in battery-powered systems and as
high-efficiency noise filters in post-regulator
applications. Unlike older NPN-pass transistor designs,
where the minimum dropout voltage is limited by the
base-to-emitter voltage drop and collector-to-emitter
saturation voltage, dropout performance of the PNP
output of these devices is limited only by the low VCE
saturation voltage.
A trade-off for the low-dropout voltage is a varying base
drive requirement. Microchip’s Superβeta PNP process
reduces this drive requirement to only 2% of the load
current.
The MIC3775 regulator is fully protected from damage
due to fault conditions. Linear current limiting is
provided. Output current during overload conditions is
constant. Thermal shutdown disables the device when
the die temperature exceeds the maximum safe
operating temperature. The output structure of these
regulators allows voltages in excess of the desired
output voltage to be applied without reverse current
flow.

Capacitor Requirements.
Output Capacitor
The MIC3775 requires an output capacitor for stable
operation. As a µCap LDO, the MIC3775 can operate
with ceramic output capacitors as long as the amount
of capacitance is 10 µF or greater. For values of output
capacitance lower than 10 µF, the recommended ESR
range is 200 mΩ to 2Ω. The minimum value of output
capacitance recommended for the MIC3775 is 4.7 µF.
For 10 µF or greater, the ESR range recommended is
less than 1Ω. Ultra-low ESR ceramic capacitors are
recommended for output capacitance of 10 µF or
greater to help improve transient response and noise
reduction at high frequency. X7R/X5R dielectric-type
ceramic capacitors are recommended because of their
temperature performance. X7R-type capacitors
change capacitance by 15% over their operating
temperature range and are the most stable type of
ceramic capacitors. Z5U and Y5V dielectric capacitors
change value by as much as 50% and 60%
2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
respectively over their operating temperature ranges.
To use a ceramic chip capacitor with Y5V dielectric, the
value must be much higher than an X7R ceramic
capacitor to ensure the same minimum capacitance
over the equivalent operating temperature range.
4.2
Input Capacitor
An input capacitor of 1 µF or greater is recommended
when the device is more than 4 inches away from the
bulk AC supply capacitance or when the supply is a
battery. Small, surface mount, ceramic chip capacitors
can be used for bypassing. Larger values will help to
improve ripple rejection by bypassing the input to the
regulator, further improving the integrity of the output
voltage.
4.3
Error Flag
The MIC3775 features an error flag (FLG) that monitors
the output voltage and signals an error condition when
this voltage drops 5% below its expected value. The
error flag is an open-collector output that pulls low
under fault conditions and may sink up to 10 mA. Low
output voltage signifies a number of possible problems,
including an overcurrent fault (the device is in current
limit) or low input voltage. The flag output is inoperative
during overtemperature conditions. A pull-up resistor
from FLG to either VIN or VOUT is required for proper
operation. For information regarding the minimum and
maximum values of pull-up resistance, refer to the
graph in the Typical Performance Curves section of the
data sheet.
4.4
Enable Input
The MIC3775 features an active-high enable input (EN)
that allows on-off control of the regulator. Current drain
reduces to “zero” when the device is shutdown, with
only microamperes of leakage current. The EN input
has TTL/CMOS compatible thresholds for simple logic
interfacing. EN may be directly tied to VIN and pulled up
to the maximum supply voltage. Do not leave the
Enable input pin floating.
4.5
Transient Response and 3.3V to
2.5V or 2.5V to 1.8V or 1.65V
Conversion
The MIC3775 has excellent transient response to
variations in input voltage and load current. The device
has been designed to respond quickly to load current
variations and input voltage variations. Large output
capacitors are not required to obtain this performance.
A standard 10 µF output capacitor is all that is required.
Larger values help to improve performance even
further.
DS20006045A-page 13
MIC3775
By virtue of its low dropout voltage, this device does not
saturate into dropout as readily as similar NPN-based
designs. When converting from 3.3V to 2.5V or 2.5V to
1.8V or 1.65V, the NPN-based regulators are already
operating in dropout, with typical dropout requirements
of 1.2V or greater. To convert down to 2.5V or 1.8V
without operating in dropout, NPN-based regulators
require an input voltage of 3.7V at the very least. The
MIC3775 regulator will provide excellent performance
with an input as low as 3.0V or 2.5V respectively. This
gives the PNP-based regulators a distinct advantage
over older, NPN-based linear regulators.
4.6
Minimum Load Current
The MIC3775 regulator is specified between finite
loads. If the output current is too small, leakage
currents dominate and the output voltage rises. A
10 mA minimum load current is necessary for proper
regulation.
4.7
Adjustable Regulator Design
The MIC3775 allows programming the output voltage
anywhere between 1.24V and the 6V maximum
operating rating of the family. Two resistors are used.
Resistors can be quite large, up to 1 MΩ, because of
the very high input impedance and low bias current of
the sense comparator.

Power MSOP-8 Thermal
Characteristics
One of the secrets of the MIC3775’s performance is its
power MSOP-8 package that features half the thermal
resistance of a standard MSOP-8 package. Lower
thermal resistance means more output current or
higher input voltage for a given package size.
Lower thermal resistance is achieved by joining the
four ground leads with the die attach paddle to create a
single-piece electrical and thermal conductor. This
concept has been used by MOSFET manufacturers for
years, proving very reliable and cost effective for the
user.
Thermal resistance consists of two main elements, θJC
(junction-to-case thermal resistance) and θCA
(case-to-ambient thermal resistance). See Figure 4-3.
θJC is the resistance from the die to the leads of the
package. θCA is the resistance from the leads to the
ambient air and it includes θCS (case-to-sink thermal
resistance) and θSA (sink-to-ambient thermal
resistance).
Using the power MSOP-8 reduces the θJC dramatically
and allows the user to reduce θCA. The total thermal
resistance,
θJA
(junction-to-ambient
thermal
resistance) is the limiting factor in calculating the
maximum power dissipation capability of the device.
Typically, the power MSOP-8 has a θJA of 80°C/W, this
is significantly lower than the standard MSOP-8, which
is typically 160°C/W. θCA is reduced because pins 5
through 8 can now be soldered directly to a ground
plane, which significantly reduces the case-to-sink
thermal resistance and sink-to-ambient thermal
resistance.
Low-dropout linear regulators from Microchip are rated
to a maximum junction temperature of 125°C. It is
important not to exceed this maximum junction
temperature during operation of the device. To prevent
this maximum junction temperature from being
exceeded, the appropriate ground plane heat sink must
be used.

Figure 4-4 shows copper area versus power
dissipation with each trace corresponding to a different
temperature rise above ambient.
From these curves, the minimum area of copper
necessary for the part to operate safely can be
determined. The maximum allowable temperature rise
must be calculated to determine operation along which
curve.
Using Figure 4-4, the minimum amount of required
copper can be determined based on the required
power dissipation. Power dissipation in a linear
regulator is calculated as follows:

Where:

TA(MAX) = The max. ambient operating temp.
Quick Method
Determine the power dissipation requirements for the
design along with the maximum ambient temperature
at which the device will be operated. Refer to
Figure 4-5, which shows safe operating curves for
three different ambient temperatures: 25°C, 50°C, and
85°C. From these curves, the minimum amount of
copper can be determined by knowing the maximum
power dissipation required. If the maximum ambient
temperature is 50°C and the power dissipation is
625 mW, the curve in Figure 4-5 shows that the
required area of copper is 160 mm2.The θJA of this
package is ideally 80°C/W, but it will vary depending
upon the availability of copper ground plane to which it
is attached.
For example, the maximum ambient temperature is
50°C, the ∆T is determined as follows:

T = 125C – 50C = 75C
