MIC22600
1MHz 6A Integrated Switch
Synchronous Buck Regulator
General Description
Features
The Micrel MIC22600 is a high efficiency 6A Integrated
synchronous buck (step-down) regulator. The MIC22600 is
optimized for highest efficiency and achieves more than
90% efficiency, while still switching at 1MHz over a broad
load range with only 1µH inductor and down to 47µF
output capacitor. The ultra-high speed control loop keeps
the output voltage within regulation even under extreme
transient load swings commonly found in FPGAs and low
voltage ASICs. The output voltage can be adjusted down
to 0.7V to address all low voltage power needs. A full
range of sequencing and tracking options is available with
the MIC22600. The Enable/Delay pin combined with the
Power Good/POR pin allows multiple outputs to be
sequenced in any way during turn-on and turn-off. The RC
(Ramp Control™) pin allows the device to be connected to
another product in the MIC22xxx and/or MIC68xxx family,
to keep the output voltages within a certain ∆V on start up.
