MIC22205
2A, Integrated, Switch, High-Efficiency,
Synchronous Buck Regulator with
Frequency Programmable up to 4MHz
General Description
Features
The Micrel MIC22205 is a high-efficiency, 2A, integrated
switch, synchronous buck (step-down) regulator. The
MIC22205 is optimized for highest efficiency, achieving
more than 95% efficiency while still switching at 1MHz.
The ultra-high speed control loop keeps the output voltage
within regulation even under the extreme transient load
swings commonly found in FPGAs and low-voltage ASICs.
The output voltage is pre-bias safe and can be adjusted
down to 0.7V to address all low-voltage power needs.
The MIC22205 offers a full range of sequencing and
tracking options. The Enable/Delay (EN/DLY) pin,
combined with the Power Good (PG) pin, allows multiple
outputs to be sequenced in any way during turn-on and
turn-off. The Ramp Control™ (RC) pin allows the device to
be connected to another product in the MIC22xxx and/or
MIC68xxx family, to keep the output voltages within a
certain ∆V on start-up.
The MIC22205 is available in a 12-pin 3mm x 3mm MLF^®
with a junction operating range from –40°C to +125°C.
