Figure 1. MIC2185 PWM Mode Block Diagram
Functional Description
The MIC2185 is a BiCMOS, switched mode, synchronous
boost (step up) control IC. The synchronous switched, high
side P-channel MOSFET, Q2, placed in parallel with the out-
put diode, D1, improves the efï¬ciency of the boost converter.
The lower voltage drop across the MOSFET reduces power
dissipation and increases efï¬ciency. Current mode control is
used to achieve superior transient line and load regulation.
An internal corrective ramp provides slope compensation
for stable operation above a 50% duty cycle. The controller
is optimized for high efï¬ciency, high performance DC-DC
converter applications.
Figure 1 is a block diagram of the MIC2185 conï¬gured as
a PWM synchronous boost converter. The switching cycle
starts when OutN goes high and turns on the low side, N-
channel MOSFET, Q1. The Vgs of the MOSFET is equal to
VinP. This forces current to ramp up in the inductor. The
inductor current ï¬ows through the current sense resistor,
Rsense. The voltage across the resistor is ampliï¬ed and
combined with an internal ramp for stability. This signal is
compared with the comp output signal of the error ampliï¬er.
When the current signal equals the error voltage signal, the
low side MOSFET is turned off. The inductor current then
ï¬ows through the diode, D1, to the output. A delay between
the turn-off of the low side MOSFET and the turn-on of the
high side MOSFET prevents both MOSFETs from being on
at the same time, which would short the output to ground.
At the end of the non-overlap time, OutP pulls the gate of
the MOSFET to ground, turning on the high side, P-channel
