MIC22600
1MHz 6A Integrated Switch
Synchronous Buck Regulator
General Description
The Micrel MIC22600 is a high efficiency 6A Integrated
synchronous buck (step-down) regulator. The MIC22600 is
optimized for highest efficiency and achieves more than
90% efficiency, while still switching at 1MHz over a broad
load range with only 1µH inductor and down to 47µF
output capacitor. The ultra-high speed control loop keeps
the output voltage within regulation even under extreme
transient load swings commonly found in FPGAs and low
voltage ASICs. The output voltage can be adjusted down
to 0.7V to address all low voltage power needs. A full
range of sequencing and tracking options is available with
the MIC22600. The Enable/Delay pin combined with the
Power Good/POR pin allows multiple outputs to be
sequenced in any way during turn-on and turn-off. The RC
(Ramp Control™) pin allows the device to be connected to
another product in the MIC22xxx and/or MIC68xxx family,
to keep the output voltages within a certain
∆V
on start up.
The MIC22600 is available in a 24-pin 4mm x 4mm MLF
®
with a junction operating range from –40°C to +125°C.

Description
Power Supply Voltage (Input): Requires bypass capacitor to GND.
Signal Power Supply Voltage (Input): Requires bypass capacitor to GND.
Enable/Delay (Input): This pin has a 1.2x band gap reference. When the pin is
pulled higher that this the part will start up. Below this voltage the device is in its
low quiescent current mode. The pin has a 1µA current source charging it to VIN.
By adding a capacitor to this pin a delay may easily be generated. The enable
function will not operate with an input voltage lower than the min specified.
Ramp Control: Capacitor to ground from this pin determines slew rate of output
voltage during start-up. This can be used for tracking capability as well as soft
start.
Feedback: Input to the error amplifier, connect to the external resistor divider
network to set the output voltage.
Compensation pin (Input): Place a RC to GND to compensate the device, see
applications section.
Power On Reset (Output): Open-drain output device indicates when the output is
out of regulation and is active after the delay set by the delay pin.
Power Ground (Signal): Ground
Signal Ground (Signal): Ground
Delay (Input): Capacitor to ground sets internal delay timer. Timer delays power-
on reset (POR) output at turn-on and ramp down at turn-off.
Switch (Output): Internal power MOSFET output switches.
Exposed Pad (Power): Must make a full connection to a GND plane for full output
power to be realized.
