MIC38HC42/3/4/5
BiCMOS 1A Current-Mode PWM Controllers
General Description
The MIC38HC4x family are fixed frequency current-mode
PWM controllers with 1A drive current capability. Micrel’s
BiCMOS devices are pin-compatible with 384x bipolar de-
vices. Their high output drive, with fast rise and fall times,
combined with low startup current make it an ideal PWM
controller where high efficiency is required.
Undervoltage lockout circuitry allows the ’42 and ’44 versions
to start up at 14.5V and operate down to 9V, and the ’43 and
’45 versions start at 8.4V with operation down to 7.6V. All
versions operate up to 20V.
When compared to bipolar UC384x devices operating from a
15V supply, start-up current has been reduced to 50µA
typical and operating current has been reduced to 4.0 mA
typical. Decreased output rise and fall times drive larger
MOSFETs, and rail-to-rail output capability increases effi-
ciency, especially at lower supply voltages. The MIC38HC4x
also features a trimmed oscillator discharge current and
bandgap reference.
MIC38HC4x-1 is available in 14-pin plastic DIP and SOIC
packages. 8-pin devices feature small size, while 14-pin
devices separate the analog and power connections for
improved performance and power dissipation.
Features

Output frequency equals oscillator frequency for the MIC38HC42 and MIC38HC43. Output frequency for the MIC38HC44, and
MIC38HC45 equals one half the oscillator frequency.
Note 6:
On 8-pin version, 20V is maximum input on pin 7, as this is also the supply pin for the output stage. On 14-pin version, 40V is
maximum for pin 12 and 20V maximum for pin 11.
