MCP16301
High Voltage Input Integrated Switch Step-Down Regulator
Features
General Description
• Up to 96% Typical Efficiency
• Input Voltage Range: 4.0V to 30V
• Output Voltage Range: 2.0V to 15V
• 2% Output Voltage Accuracy
• Integrated N-Channel Buck Switch: 460 mΩ
• 600 mA Output Current
The MCP16301 is a highly integrated, high-efficiency,
fixed frequency, step-down DC-DC converter in a
popular 6-pin SOT-23 package that operates from input
voltage sources up to 30V. Integrated features include
a high side switch, fixed frequency Peak Current Mode
Control, internal compensation, peak current limit and
overtemperature
protection.
Minimal
external
components are necessary to develop a complete
step-down DC-DC converter power supply.
• 500 kHz Fixed Frequency
• Adjustable Output Voltage
• Low Device Shutdown Current
• Peak Current Mode Control
• Internal Compensation
High converter efficiency is achieved by integrating the
current limited, low resistance, high-speed N-Channel
MOSFET and associated drive circuitry. High
switching frequency minimizes the size of external
filtering components resulting in a small solution size.
• Stable with Ceramic Capacitors
• Internal Soft-Start
The MCP16301 can supply 600 mA of continuous
current while regulating the output voltage from 2.0V to
15V. An integrated, high-performance peak current
mode architecture keeps the output voltage tightly
regulated, even during input voltage steps and output
current transient conditions that are common in power
systems.
• Cycle by Cycle Peak Current Limit
• Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO): 3.5V
• Overtemperature Protection
• Available Package: SOT-23-6
Applications
• PIC®/dsPIC Microcontroller Bias Supply
• 24V Industrial Input DC-DC Conversion
• Set-Top Boxes
The EN input is used to turn the device on and off.
While turned off, only a few micro amps of current are
consumed from the input for power shedding and load
distribution applications.
• DSL Cable Modems
Output voltage is set with an external resistor divider.
The MCP16301 is offered in a space saving SOT-23-6
surface mount package.
