Synchronous Buck Converter
Refer to figure 2. This MIC38C43 synchronous buck converter
uses an MIC5022 half-bridge driver to alternately drive the
PWM switch MOSFET (driven by GATEH, or high-side output)
and a MOSFET which functions as a synchronous rectifier
(driven by the GATEL, or low-side output).
The low-side MOSFET turns on when the high-side MOS-
FET is off, allowing current to return from ground. Current
flows through the low-side MOSFET in the source to drain
direction.
The on-state voltage drop of the low-side MOSFET is lower
than the forward voltage drop of an equivalent Schottky recti-
fier. This lower voltage drop results in higher efficiency.
A sense resistor (5mΩ) is connected to the driver’s high-
side current sense inputs to provide overcurrent protection.
Refer to the MIC5020, MIC5021, and MIC5022 data sheets
for more information.
