MIC5504/MT Thermal Information

The MIC5501/2/3/4 are designed to provide 300 mA of continuous current in a very small package. Maximum ambient operating temperature can be calculated based on the output current and the voltage drop across the part. For example if the input voltage is 3.6V, the output voltage is 2.8V, and the output current is 300 mA. The actual power dissipation of the regulator circuit can be determined using Equation 4-1:
