MIC2169B
500kHz PWM Synchronous Buck
Control IC General Description Features The MIC2169B is a high-efficiency, simple to use 500kHz
PWM synchronous buck control IC housed in small
MSOP-10 and MSOP-10 ePad packages. The MIC2169B
allows compact DC/DC solutions with a minimal external
component count and cost. The device features highoutput driver capability to drive loads up to 30A.
The MIC2169B operates from a 3V to 14.5V input, without
the need of any additional bias voltage. The output voltage
can be precisely regulated down to 0.8V. The adaptive all
N-Channel MOSFET drive scheme allows efficiencies over
95% across a wide load range within the smallest possible
printed circuit board space area.
The MIC2169B senses current across the high-side NChannel MOSFET, eliminating the need for an expensive
and lossy current-sense resistor. Current-limit accuracy is
maintained by a positive temperature coefficient that tracks
the increasing RDS(ON) of the external MOSFET. Further
cost and space are saved by the internal in-rush currentlimiting digital soft-start. The MIC2169B is identical to the
MIC2169A with the exception that the MIC2169B supports
pre-bias loads and has a lower impedance gate-drive
circuit. Internal pre-bias circuit prevents output voltage
drooping and excessive reverse inductor current when
powering up with a pre-bias voltage at the output. …
