750 kHz Boost Controller
Description
The MCP1650/51/52/53 is a 750 kHz gated oscillator boost controller packaged in an 8 or 10-pin MSOP package. Developed for high-power, portable applications, the gated oscillator controller can deliver 5 watts of power to the load while consuming only 120 µA of quiescent current at no load. The MCP1650/51/52/53 can operate over a wide input
voltage range (2.0V to 5.5V) to accommodate multiple primary-cell and singlecell Li-Ion battery-powered applications, in addition to 2.8V, 3.3V and 5.0V regulated input
voltages. An internal 750 kHz gated oscillator makes the MCP1650/51/52/53 ideal for space-limited designs. The high switching frequency minimizes the size of the external inductor and capacitor, saving board space and cost. The internal oscillator operates at two different duty cycles depending on the level of the input
voltage. By changing duty cycle in this fashion, the peak input current is reduced at high input
voltages, reducing output ripple
voltage and electrical stress on power train components. When the input
voltage is low, the duty cycle changes to a larger value in order to provide full-power capability at a wide input
voltage range typical of battery-powered, portable applications. The MCP1650/51/52/53 was designed to drive external switches directly using internal low-resistance
MOSFETs. Additional features integrated on the MCP1650/51/52/ 53 family include peak input current limit, adjustable o...
