Micrel Introduces New 18V, 3A, High Performance DC-DC Converter in 3mm x 3mm Footprint
(firmenpresse) - SAN JOSE, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 10/23/13 -- Micrel, Inc. (NASDAQ: MCRL), an industry leader in high performance linear and power solutions, LAN and timing and communications solutions, today introduced the family, a fixed frequency, current-mode DC-DC converter with integrated power MOSFETs. The is optimized for +12V rails and provides a flexible and cost-effective solution for distributed power systems and communication applications. The provides an adjustable output voltage from 0.9V to 5.5V; the MIC24085B/C/D/E/F provide fixed output voltages at 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V and 5V respectively. The are available in volume quantity with 1,000 quantity pricing starting at $0.53. Samples can be ordered on line at: .
"Power supply designers face the challenge in finding an efficient, flexible and cost-effective solution that addresses the need for higher power density in the smallest possible real estate," noted Brian Hedayati, vice president of marketing for high performance linear and power solutions at Micrel. "Micrel's family will meet this challenge by offering an integrated 3A solution with nearly a 26 percent reduction in footprint compared to solutions currently on the market. The also achieves over 90 percent peak efficiency and consumes less than 10µA of supply current in shutdown mode."
The family of devices operates with an input voltage range of 4.5V to 18V and delivers 3A of output current while operating at a fixed frequency of 1MHz. Peak current mode architecture is used to provide fast transient response. At light load, the pulse frequency modulation (PFM) mode is used to boost overall efficiency.
The family improves system reliability by offering multiple protection features. These features include under-voltage lockout, internal soft start, cycle-by-cycle current limit, output overvoltage protection and thermal shutdown. Other features include an enable input and a PG (Power Good) output. The family is available in a 16-pin 3mm x 3mm MLF package with a junction operating range from -40degC to +125degC.
