The MIC5232-1.8YD5 is a fixed 1.8V low dropout linear regulator designed for ultra-low power applications. With a maximum output of 10mA and a quiescent current of only 3µA, it excels in battery-powered and always-on circuits. The TSOT-23-5 package ensures a small footprint.
- Ultra-Low Quiescent Current: 3µA quiescent current dramatically extends battery life in standby and always-on applications.
- Low Dropout: 0.3V dropout at 10mA allows operation from nearly depleted batteries.
- Precise 1.8V Output: Fixed output ideal for modern low-voltage digital ICs.
- Small Package: TSOT-23-5 is suitable for space-constrained portable designs.
Always-On Memory Backup
The ultra-low 3µA quiescent current makes it perfect for keeping SRAM or RTC circuits powered in standby mode without draining the battery.
Energy Harvesting Systems
For micro-power energy harvesters, the 10mA output and low dropout enable efficient regulation of tiny harvested voltages.
Portable Medical Monitors
Low power consumption extends battery life in glucose monitors or pulse oximeters that require continuous operation.
IoT Sleep-Mode Circuits
In wireless sensor nodes, the 3µA quiescent current preserves battery during sleep intervals while maintaining a stable 1.8V rail.
Coin-Cell Powered Devices
The low dropout and minimal current draw are ideal for devices powered by small coin cells, maximizing usable capacity.
Automotive Standby Electronics
TSOT-23-5 package and low leakage suit automotive modules that need to stay powered while the vehicle is off.
