MIC2171_07 Datasheet, PDF (1/12 Pages) Micrel Semiconductor – 100kHz 2.5A Switching Regulator
MIC2171
100kHz 2.5A Switching Regulator
General Description
The MIC2171 is a complete 100kHz SMPS current-mode
controller with an internal 65V 2.5A power switch.
Although primarily intended for voltage step-up applica-
tions, the floating switch architecture of the MIC2171
makes it practical for step-down, inverting, and Cuk config-
urations as well as isolated topologies.
Operating from 3V to 40V, the MIC2171 draws only 7mA
of quiescent current, making it attractive for battery
operated supplies.
The MIC2171 is available in a 5-pin TO-220 or TO-263 for
–40°C to +85°C operation.
Data sheets and support documentation can be found on
Micrel’s web site at: www.micrel.com.
