MIC24045 Synchronous Step Down Regulator

MIC24045 Synchronous Step-Down Regulator With I²C

MIC24045-VQFN-20.png

The MIC24045 is an I²C-programmable, high-efficiency, wide input range, 5 A synchronous step-down regulator. The MIC24045 is perfectly suited for multiple voltage rail application environments, typically found in computing and telecommunication systems. In the MIC24045 various parameters can be programmed via I²C, such as output voltage, switching frequency, soft-start slope, margining, current limit values and start-up delays. The wide switching frequency adjustment range, valley-current mode control technique, high-performance error amplifier, and external compensation allow for the best trade-offs between high efficiency and the smallest possible solution size.

The MIC24045 supports extensive diagnostics and status information through I²C. The MIC24045 pin-out is compatible with the MIC24046 pin-strapping programmable regulator pin-out, such that I²C-based implementations can be easily converted into pin-programmable ones. The MIC24045 is available in thermally-efficient, space-saving 20-pin 3 mm x 3 mm FQFN package with an operating junction temperature range from -40 °C to +125 °C.

MIC24045 Evaluation Kit (Part Number: ADM00764)

MIC24045-Evaluation-Board.jpg

The MIC24045 Evaluation Board is designed to serve all of the devices that make up Microchip’s MIC2404x family of parts. As a result, only a subset of its features is needed for the MIC24045 evaluation. Specific for the evaluation of the MIC24045 device, the VIN supply ranges from 4.5 V to 19 V and output voltage from 0.64 V to 5.25 V in 5 mV, 10 mV, 30 mV and 50 mV steps at 5 A. Additionally, an on-board load transient generator circuit and connections for loop gain measurements are provided. A connector (J10) matching the MCP2221 Breakout Module I²C interface is provided for board compatibility with I²C.
