MIC23153
4MHz PWM 2A Buck Regulator with
HyperLight Load™ and Power Good
General Description
Features
• Input voltage: 2.7V to 5.5V
The MIC23153 is
a
high-efficiency, 4MHz, 2A,
• Output voltage: fixed or adjustable (0.62V to 3.6V)
• Up to 2A output current
• Up to 93% peak efficiency
• 85% typical efficiency at 1mA
• Power Good output
• Programmable soft-start
synchronous buck regulator with HyperLight Load™ mode,
Power Good output indicator, and programmable soft-start.
HyperLight Load™ provides very-high efficiency at light
loads and ultra-fast transient response which makes the
MIC23153 perfectly suited for supplying processor core
voltages. An additional benefit of this proprietary
architecture is very-low output ripple voltage throughout
the entire load range with the use of small output
capacitors. The tiny 2.5mm x 2.5mm Thin MLF® package
saves precious board space and requires only four
external components.
• 22µA typical quiescent current
• 4MHz PWM operation in continuous mode
• Ultra-fast transient response
• Low ripple output voltage
− 35mVpp ripple in HyperLight Load™ mode
− 5mV output voltage ripple in full PWM mode
• Fully integrated MOSFET switches
The MIC23153 is designed for use with a very-small
inductor, down to 0.47µH, and an output capacitor as small
as 2.2 µF that enables a total solution size, less than 1mm
in height.
• 0.01µA shutdown current
• Thermal shutdown and current-limit protection
• 10-pin 2.5mm x 2.5mm Thin MLF®
The MIC23153 has a very-low quiescent current of 22µA
and achieves a peak efficiency of 93% in continuous
conduction mode. In discontinuous conduction mode, the
MIC23153 can achieve 85% efficiency at 1mA.
• –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range
Applications
• Solid State Drives (SSD)
• Mobile handsets
The MIC23153 is available in 10-pin 2.5mm x 2.5mm Thin
MLF® package with an operating junction temperature
range from –40°C to +125°C.
