MIC4685WR Microchip

MIC4685 3A SPAK SuperSwitcher Buck Regulator General Description Features The MIC4685 is a high-efficiency 200kHz stepdown (buck) Low 2mm prole SPAK package switching regulator. Power conversion efficiency of above 3A continuous output current 85% is easily obtainable for a wide variety of applications. Wide 4V to 30V input voltage range (34V transient) The MIC4685 achieves 3A of continuous current in the Fixed 200kHz PWM operation 7-pin SPAK package. Over 85% efciency The thermal performance of the SPAK allows it to replace 2 TO-220s and TO-263s (D PAKs) in many applications. Output voltage adjustable to 1.235V The SPAK saves board space with a 36% smaller footprint All surface mount solution than TO-263. Internally compensated with fast transient response High-efciency is maintained over a wide output current Over-current protection range by utilizing a boost capacitor to increase the voltage Frequency foldback short-circuit protection available to saturate the internal power switch. As a result Thermal shutdown of this high-efciency, only the ground plane of the PCB is needed for a heat sink. The MIC4685 allows for a high degree of safety. It has a Applications wide input voltage range of 4V to 30V (34V transient), Point-of-load power supplies allowing it to be used in applications where input voltage transients may be present. Built-in safety features include Simple high-efciency step-down regulators over-current protection, frequency-foldback short-circuit 5V to 3.3V/2A conversion protection, and thermal shutdown. 12V to 5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V 3A conversion The MIC4685 is available in a 7-pin SPAK package with a Dual-output 5V conversion junction temperature range of 40C to +125C.
