The MIC5209-5.0YM-TR is a fixed-output low dropout linear regulator from Microchip Technology, delivering a stable 5.0V at up to 500mA. Its low 170µA quiescent current and 0.6V dropout voltage make it an efficient choice for battery-operated and power-sensitive applications. With 75dB PSRR at 120Hz, it effectively suppresses input ripple, ensuring clean power for sensitive electronics. Housed in an 8-SOIC package, this regulator offers a compact solution for space-constrained designs.
- Standard 5V Rail: Fixed 5.0V output is compatible with a wide range of logic and analog ICs.
- Extended Battery Life: Ultra-low 170µA quiescent current minimizes standby power consumption, ideal for portable devices.
- High Noise Rejection: 75dB PSRR at 120Hz filters out ripple, providing clean power for sensitive analog and digital circuits.
- Low Dropout Operation: 0.6V dropout at 500mA allows operation from nearly depleted batteries, maximizing usable energy.
5V Logic Systems
Many legacy and industrial logic circuits operate at 5V. This regulator provides a stable, clean 5V rail from higher input voltages.
Sensor Interface Boards
For 5V sensors and transducers, the low dropout and high PSRR ensure accurate signal conditioning without noise interference.
Microcontroller Development Boards
Arduino-compatible and other MCU boards often require 5V. The 500mA output can power the MCU and multiple peripherals.
Relay and Solenoid Drivers
In industrial control, 5V logic driving relays benefits from the clean output and robust current capability.
Analog-to-Digital Converter Supplies
High-resolution ADCs require low-noise 5V references. The 75dB PSRR helps maintain conversion accuracy.
Automotive ECUs
In engine control units, the 5V rail powers sensors and microcontrollers, with the low dropout ensuring stable operation during cranking.
