MIC2177
2.5A Synchronous Buck Regulator
General Description
The Micrel MIC2177 is a 200kHz synchronous buck (step-
down) switching regulator designed for high-efficiency, bat-
tery-powered applications.
The MIC2177 operates from a 4.5V to 16.5V input and
features internal power MOSFETs that can supply up to 2.5A
output current. It can operate with a maximum duty cycle of
100% for use in low-dropout conditions. It also features a
shutdown mode that reduces quiescent current to less than
5µA.
The MIC2177 achieves high efficiency over a wide output
current range by switching between PWM and skip mode.
Operating mode is automatically selected according to output
conditions. Switching frequency is preset to 200kHz and can
be synchronized to an external clock signal of up to 300kHz.
The MIC2177 uses current-mode control with internal current
sensing. Current-mode control provides superior line regula-
tion and makes the regulator control loop easy to compen-
sate. The output is protected with pulse-by-pulse current
limiting and thermal shutdown. Undervoltage lockout turns
the output off when the input voltage is less than 4.5V.
The MIC2177 is packaged in a 20-lead wide power SO
package with an operating temperature range of –40°C to
+85°C.
See the MIC2178 for externally selected PWM or skip-mode
operation.

Pin Function
Supply Input: Controller and switch supply. Unregulated supply input to
internal regulator, output switches, and control circuitry. Requires bypass
capacitor to PGND. All three pins must be connected to V
IN
.
Switch (Output): Internal power MOSFET switch output. Both pins must be
externally connected together.
Power Ground: Output stage ground connections. Connect all pins to a
common ground plane.
Output Voltage Sense (Input): Senses output voltage to determine minimum
switch current for PWM operation. Connect directly to V
OUT
.
Automatic Mode: Connect 2.2nF timing capacitor for automatic PWM-/skip-
mode switching. Regulator operates exclusively in PWM mode when pin is
pulled low.
Feedback (Input): Error amplifier inverting input. For adjustable output
version, connect FB to external resistive divider to set output voltage. For
3.3V and 5V fixed output versions, connect FB directly to output.
Compensation: Internal error amplifier output. Connect to capacitor or series
RC network to compensate the regulator control loop.
Signal Ground: Ground connection of control section. Connect all pins to
common ground plane.
Frequency Synchronization (Input): Optional clock input. Connect to
external clock signal to synchronize oscillator. Leading edge of signal above
1.7V terminates switching cycle. Connect to SGND if not used.
Bias Supply: Internal 3.3V bias supply output. Decouple with 0.01µF
bypass capacitor and 10kΩ to SGND. Do not apply any external load.
Enable (Input): Logic high enables operation. Logic low shuts down
regulator. Do not allow pin to float.
