DS(ON)
= 130m&
According to the above calculation, the minimum R
DS(ON)
is 130m& for a 2.5V to 1.8V LDO with 5A of output
current. For this design, the R
DS(ON)
for the FETs should
maintain   better   than   130m&   over   the   required
temperature, current, and voltage conditions.
Placing two or more P-Channel FETs in parallel can
reduce the total R
DS(ON)
of the regulator. This also aids
thermal dissipation by sharing the current and heat
between the multiple FETs.
Thermal Considerations
Linear   regulators   are   simple   to   use.   The   most
complicated design parameters to consider are thermal
characteristics. Since the MIC5159 offers no thermal
protection,   thermal   design   requires   the   following
application-specific parameters:
"    Maximum ambient temperature (T
A
)
"    Output current (I
OUT
)
"    Output voltage (V
OUT
)
"    Input voltage (V
IN
)
First, calculate the maximum power dissipation of the
regulator:
P
D
= (V
IN
V
OUT
) ?I
OUT
Ground current can generally be ignored. The amount of
power dissipated by ground current and input voltage is
minimal.   Minimum   ?/DIV>
