MCP1661
High-Voltage Integrated Switch PWM Boost Regulator with UVLO
Features
General Description
• 36V, 800 m Integrated Switch
• Up to 92% Efficiency
The MCP1661 device is a compact, high-efficiency,
fixed-frequency, non-synchronous step-up DC-DC
converter which integrates a 36V, 800 m NMOS
• High Output Voltage Range: up to 32V
• 1.3A Peak Input Current Limit:
switch. It provides
a space-efficient high-voltage
step-up power supply solution for applications powered
by either two-cell or three-cell alkaline, Ultimate Lithium,
NiCd, NiMH, one-cell Li-Ion or Li-Polymer batteries.
- IOUT > 200 mA @ 5.0V VIN, 12V VOUT
- IOUT > 125 mA @ 3.3V VIN, 12V VOUT
- IOUT > 100 mA @ 4.2V VIN, 24V VOUT
• Input Voltage Range: 2.4V to 5.5V
• Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO):
- UVLO @ VIN Rising: 2.3V, typical
- UVLO @ VIN Falling: 1.85V, typical
• No Load Input Current: 250 µA, typical
The integrated switch is protected by the 1.3A
cycle-by-cycle inductor peak current limit operation.
There is an output overvoltage protection which turns
off switching in case the feedback resistors are
accidentally disconnected or the feedback pin is
short-circuited to GND.
Low-voltage technology allows the regulator to start-up
without high inrush current or output voltage overshoot
from a low-voltage input. The device features a UVLO
which avoids start-up and operation with low inputs or
discharged batteries for two cell-powered applications.
• Sleep mode with 200 nA Typical Quiescent
Current
• PWM Operation with Skip mode: 500 kHz
• Feedback Voltage Reference: VFB = 1.227V
• Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limiting
For standby applications (EN = GND), the device stops
switching, enters Sleep mode and consumes 200 nA
(typical) of input current.
• Internal Compensation
• Inrush Current Limiting and Internal Soft Start
• Output Overvoltage Protection (OVP) in the event
of:
MCP1661 is easy to use and allows creating classic
boost, SEPIC or flyback DC-DC converters within a
small Printed Circuit Board (PCB) area. All
compensation and protection circuitry is integrated to
minimize the number of external components. Ceramic
input and output capacitors are used.
- Feedback pin shorted to GND
- Disconnected feedback divider
• Overtemperature Protection
• Easily Configurable for SEPIC or Flyback
