MIC2186
Low Voltage PWM Control IC
General Description
Features
Micrel’s MIC2186 is a high efficiency boost PWM control IC.
With its wide input voltage range of 2.9V to 14V, the MIC2186
can be used to efficiently boost voltages in 1- or 2-cell Li Ion
battery powered applications, as well as to boost voltages in
fixed 3.3V, 5V, or 12V systems. Its powerful 1.6Ω output
driverallowstheMIC2186tosupplylargeoutputcurrentswith
the selection of proper external MOSFETs.
• Input voltage range: 2.9V to 14V
• 1.6Ω output driver
• Oscillator frequency of 100kHz/200kHz/400kHz
• Frequency sync to 600kHz
• Front edge blanking
• PWM Current Mode Control
• Selectable light load SKIP mode
• 600µA quiescent current (SKIP-Mode)
• 0.5µA shutdown current
The MIC2186 can be configured to operate at 100kHz,
200kHz, or 400kHz. With it’s fixed frequency PWM architec-
ture, and easily synchronized drive, the MIC2186 is ideal for
noise-sensitive telecommunications applications.
• Cycle-by-Cycle current limiting
• Frequency foldback protection
• Adjustable under-voltage lockout
• Precision 1.245V reference output
• 16 pin SOIC and QSOP package options
• Selectable 50% maximum duty cycle for flyback applica-
tions
MIC2186 also features a low current shutdown mode of
0.5µA and programmable undervoltage lockout. A manually
selectable SKIP Mode allows high efficiencies in light load
situations.
