MIC5387 Evaluation Board
Ultra-Small Triple 150mA Output LDO
General Description
Getting Started
The MIC5387 is an advanced, general purpose tripleoutput, linear regulator offering high power supply rejection
(PSRR) in an ultra-small 6 pin 1.6mm x 1.6mm Thin MLF®
package. The MIC5387 is capable of 150mA from each
output and offers high PSRR, making it an ideal solution
for any portable electronic application.
Ideal for battery powered applications, the MIC5387 offers
2% initial accuracy, low dropout voltage (180mV @
150mA), and low ground current (typically 32µA per
output).
The MIC5387 is available in a lead-free (RoHS compliant)
1.6mm x 1.6mm 6 pin Thin MLF® occupying only 2.56mm2
of PCB area, a 36% reduction in board area compared to a
2mm x 2mm Thin MLF® package.
An input capacitor is required when the power supply is
more than four inches from the device. The evaluation
board includes an input capacitor of 10µF to compensate
for long inductive test leads.

• Connect an External Supply to VIN. Apply the desired
input voltage to the VIN (J1) and ground (J2) terminal of
the evaluation board, paying careful attention to polarity
and supply voltage (2.5V ≤ VIN ≤ 5.5V). An ammeter can
be placed between the input supply and the VIN terminal
of the evaluation board. Ensure that the supply voltage
is monitored at the VIN terminal. The ammeter and/or
power-lead resistance can reduce the voltage supplied
to the input.
• Enable/Disable the MIC5387. To enable the MIC5387
jumper the enable terminal (J3 for LDO2 and LDO3) to
VIN. LDO1 does not have an enable pin and is always
enabled when VIN is above the UVLO threshold. To
disable outputs 2 and 3, simply remove the jumper from
the EN2/3 terminal. The enable pin must be either pulled
high or low. Leaving the pin floating will cause the
regulator to operate in an indeterminate state. The
evaluation board is supplied with 100KΩ pull-down
resistor on the EN2/3 pin for default off state of LDO2
and LDO3.
• Connect the Load. Connect the loads to the VOUT
Terminals (J4 for LDO1, J6 for LDO2 and J8 for LDO3)
and Ground Terminals (J5, J7, or J9). The loads can be
either passive (resistor) or active (electronic load). Be
sure to monitor the output voltage at the VOUT (J5, J7
and J9) terminals.
Requirements
The MIC5387 evaluation board requires an input power
supply that is capable of delivering a minimum 600mA at a
voltage range of 2.5V to 5.5V. The output load can be
either active or passive.
Precautions
The MIC5387 evaluation board does not have reverse
polarity protection. Applying a negative voltage to the VIN
terminal may damage the device.
