MIC2810
Digital Power Management IC
2MHz, 600mA DC/DC w/Dual
300mA/300mA Low VIN LDOs
General Description
DC/DC Converter
• 2.7V to 5.5V input voltage range
The MIC2810 is a high performance power management
IC, integrating a 2MHz DC/DC switcher with two 300mA
LDOs. The MIC2810 features a LOWQ® mode, reducing
the total current draw while in this mode to less than 30µA.
In LOWQ® mode, the output noise of the DC/DC converter
is 53µVRMS, significantly lower than other converters that
use a PFM light load mode that can interfere with sensitive
RF circuitry.
• Output current to 600mA in PWM mode
•
LOWQ® Mode: NO NOISE light load mode
– 53µVRMS Output noise in LOWQ® mode
• 2MHz PWM operation in normal mode
LDOs
• LDO1
– 1.65V to 5.5V input voltage range
– 300mA Output current
– Output voltage down to 0.8V
• LDO2
The MIC2810 is a µCap design, operating with very small
ceramic output capacitors and inductors for stability,
therefore, reducing required board space and component
cost. It is available with fixed output voltages in a 16-pin
3mm x 3mm MLF® leadless package.
– 2.7V to 5.5V input voltage range
– 300mA Output current
– Output voltage down to 0.8V
