MIC2159

MIC2159 SYNCHRONOUS-itty™ Step-Down Converter IC General Description The MIC2159 is a high efficiency, simple to use synchronous buck controller ICs housed in a 10-pin MSOP ePAD package. The MIC2159 switches at 400kHz, allowing the smallest possible external components and is designed to drive loads up to 30A. The devices feature high output driver capability, combined with an all nchannel synchronous architecture. The MIC2159 operates from a 3V to 14.5V input and can be configured to generate output voltages as low as 0.8V. Efficiencies of over 95% can be achieved within the smallest possible printed circuit board space area. The MIC2159 is available in a thermally capable 10-pin ePAD MSOP package, with a junction operating range from –40°C to +125°C. Features Small footprint 10-lead ePAD MSOP 3V to 14.5V input voltage range Adjustable output voltage down to 0.8V 400KHz operation Drives two n-channel MOSFETs - Built-in 3Ω drivers Simple control: voltag...
