MIC261203
28V, 12A HyperLight Load® Synchronous
DC/DC Buck Regulator
Features
General Description
• HyperLight Load® Efficiency: Up to 80% at 10 mA
• HyperLight Load® Architecture Enables
- High Delta V Operation (VIN = 28V and
The MIC261203 is a constant-frequency, synchronous
DC/DC buck regulator featuring adaptive on-time
control architecture. The MIC261203 operates over a
supply range of 4.5V to 28V. It has an internal linear
regulator that provides a regulated 5V to power the
internal control circuitry. MIC261203 operates at a
constant 600 kHz switching frequency in continuous
conduction mode and can be used to provide up to 12A
of output current. The output voltage is adjustable
down to 0.8V.
Microchip’s Hyper Light 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.

Short-Circuit Protection
The MIC261203 offers a full suite of features to protect
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
MIC261203 includes a Power Good (PG) output to
allow simple sequencing.
