MIC24052
12V, 6A High-Efficiency Buck Regulator
®
with HyperLight Load
Features
General Description
• HyperLight Load® Efficiency: up to 80% at 10 mA
• Hyper Speed Control® Architecture Enables:
The MIC24052 is a constant-frequency, synchronous
DC/DC buck regulator featuring a unique adaptive
on-time control architecture. The MIC24052 operates
over an input supply range of 4.5V to 19V. It has an
internal linear regulator which provides a regulated 5V
to power the internal control circuitry. The MIC24052
operates at a constant 600 kHz switching frequency in
continuous-conduction mode and can be used to
provide up to 6A of output current. The output voltage
is adjustable down to 0.8V.
Microchip’s HyperLight Load® architecture provides
the same high-efficiency and ultra-fast transient
response as the Hyper Speed Control® architecture
under medium to heavy loads, but also maintains high
efficiency under light load conditions by transitioning to
variable-frequency, discontinuous-mode operation.
- High Delta V Operation (VIN = 19V and VOUT
= 0.8V)
- Small Output Capacitance
• 4.5V to 19V Input Voltage Range
• 6A Output Current Capability
• Up to 95% Efficiency
• Adjustable Output from 0.8V to 5.5V
• ±1% Feedback Accuracy
• Any Capacitor Stable - Zero-to-High ESR
• 600 kHz Switching Frequency
• Power Good (PG) Output
• Foldback Current-Limit and “Hiccup Mode”
Short-Circuit Protection
The MIC24052 offers a full suite of protection features
to ensure protection of the IC during fault conditions.
These include undervoltage lockout to ensure proper
operation under power-sag conditions, thermal
shutdown, internal soft-start to reduce the inrush
current, foldback current limit and “hiccup mode”
short-circuit protection. The MIC24052 includes a
power good (PG) output to allow simple sequencing.
• Supports Safe Start-Up into a Pre-Biased Load
• –40°C to +125°C Junction Temperature Range
• Available in a 28-pin 5 mm x 6 mm QFN Package
Applications
• Servers and Workstations
• Routers, Switches, and Telecom Equipment
• Base Stations
The 6A Hyper Speed Control part, MIC24051, is also
available on Microchip’s web site.
