MCP1623T-IMC

MCP1623/24 Low-Voltage Input Boost Regulator for PIC Microcontrollers Features General Description Up to 96% Typical Efficiency The MCP1623/24 is a compact, high-efficiency, fixed-frequency, synchronous step-up DC-DC 425 mA Typical Peak Input Current Limit: converter. It provides an easy-to-use power supply -I >50mA 1.2V V , 3.3V V OUT IN OUT solution for PIC microcontroller applications powered -I > 175 mA 2.4V V , 3.3V V OUT IN OUT by either single-cell, two-cell, or three-cell alkaline, -I > 175 mA 3.3V V 5.0V V OUT IN, OUT NiCd, NiMH, and single-cell Li-Ion or Li-Polymer Low Start-Up Voltage: 0.65V, 3.3V V 1 mA batteries. OUT (typical) Low-voltage technology allows the regulator to start up Low Operating Input Voltage: 0.35V, typical without high inrush current or output voltage overshoot 3.3V 1 mA OUT from a low 0.65V input. High efficiency is accomplished Adjustable Output Voltage Range: 2.0V to 5.5V by integrating the low-resistance N-Channel Boost switch and synchronous P-Channel switch. All Maximum Input Voltage V < 5.5V OUT compensation and protection circuitry are integrated to Automatic PFM/PWM Operation (MCP1624) minimize external components. For standby PWM-Only Operation (MCP1623) applications, the MCP1624 operates and consumes PWM Operation: 500 kHz only 19 A while operating at no load. Low Device Quiescent Current: 19 A, typical A true Load Disconnect mode provides input to output PFM Mode isolation while disabled (EN = GND) by removing the Internal Synchronous Rectifier normal boost regulator diode path from input to output. Internal Compensation This mode consumes less than 1 A of input current. Inrush Current Limiting and Internal Soft Start Output voltage is set by a small external resistor True Load Disconnect divider.
