MIC2142
Micropower Boost Converter
General Description
Features
The MIC2142 is a micropower boost switching regulator
housed in a SOT23-5 package. The input voltage range is
between 2.2V to 16V, making the device suitable for one-
cell Li Ion and 3 to 4-cell alkaline/NiCad/NiMH applica-
tions. The output voltage of the MIC2142 can be adjusted
up to 22V.
• 2.2V to 16V input voltage
• Up to 22V output voltage
• 330kHz switching frequency
• 0.1µA shutdown current
• 85µA quiescent current
The MIC2142 is well suited for portable, space-sensitive
applications. It features a low quiescent current of 85µA,
and a typical shutdown current of 0.1µA. It’s 330kHz
operation allows small surface mount external components
to be used. The MIC2142 is capable of efficiencies over
85% in a small board area.
The MIC2142 can be configured to efficiently power a
variety of loads. It is capable of providing a few mA output
for supplying low power bias voltages; it is also capable of
providing the 80mA needed to drive 4 white LEDs.
• Implements low-power boost, SEPIC, or flyback
• SOT23-5 package
Applications
• LCD bias supply
• White LED driver
• 12V Flash memory supply
• Local 3V to 5V conversion
The MIC2142 is available in a SOT23-5 package with an
ambient operating temperature range from –40°C to
+85°C.
