MIC2101/02
38V, Synchronous Buck Controllers
Featuring Adaptive On-Time Control
Hyper Speed Control Family
General Description
The
Micrel MIC2101/02
are constant-frequency,
synchronous buck controllers featuring a unique adaptive
ON-time control architecture. The MIC2101/02 operates
over an input supply range from 4.5V to 38V and can be
used to supply up to 15A of output current. The output
voltage is adjustable down to 0.8V with a guaranteed
accuracy of ±1%. The device operates with programmable
switching frequency from 200kHz to 600kHz.
Micrel’s Hyper Light Load™ architecture provides the same
high-efficiency and ultra-fast transient response as the Hyper
Speed Control architecture under the medium to heavy loads,
but also maintains high efficiency under light load conditions
by transitioning to variable frequency, discontinuous-mode
operation.
The MIC2101/02 offers a full suite of protection features to
ensure protection of the IC during fault conditions. These
include undervoltage lockout to ensure proper operation
under power-sag conditions, internal soft-start to reduce
inrush current, fold-back current limit, “hiccup” mode short-
circuit protection and thermal shutdown.
All support documentation can be found on Micrel’s web
site at:

Pin Function
Internal +5V Linear Regulator Output. VDD is the internal supply bus for the device. A 4.7μF ceramic
capacitor from VDD to AGND is required for decoupling. In the applications with VIN < +5.5V, VDD
should be tied to VIN to by-pass the linear regulator.
5V supply input for the low-side N-channel MOSFET driver, which can be tied to VDD externally. A
4.7μF ceramic capacitor from PVDD to PGND is recommended for decoupling.
Current Limit Setting. Connect a resistor from SW to ILIM to set the over-current threshold for the
converter.
Low-Side Drive output. High-current driver output for external low-side MOSFET of a buck converter.
The DL driving voltage swings from ground to VDD. Adding a small resistor between DL pin and the
gate of the low-side N-channel MOSFET can slow down the turn-on and turn-off speed of the
MOSFET.
Power Ground. PGND is the return path for the buck converter power stage. The PGND pin
connects to the sources of low-side N-Channel external MOSFET, the negative terminals of input
capacitors, and the negative terminals of output capacitors. The return path for the power ground
should be as small as possible and separate from the signal ground (AGND) return path.
Switching Frequency Adjust input. Tie this pin to VIN to operate at 600kHz and place a resistor
divider to reduce the frequency.

Pin Name
DH
Pin Function
High-Side Drive Output. High-current driver output for external high-side MOSFET of a buck
converter. The DH driving voltage is floating on the switch node voltage (V
SW
). Adding a small
resistor between DH pin and the gate of the high-side N-channel MOSFET can slow down the turn-
on and turn-off speed of the MOSFET.
Switch Node and Current-Sense input. High current output driver return. The SW pin connects
directly to the switch node. Due to the high-speed switching on this pin, the SW pin should be
routed away from sensitive nodes. The SW pin also senses the current by monitoring the voltage
across the low-side MOSFET during OFF time. In order to sense the current accurately, connect the
low-side MOSFET drain to the SW pin using a Kelvin connection.
No Connection.
Voltage supply input for the high-side N-channel MOSFET driver, which can be powered by a
bootstrapped circuit connected between VDD and SW, using a Schottky diode and a 0.1μF ceramic
capacitor. Adding a small resistor at BST pin can slow down the turn-on speed of the high-side
MOSFET.
Signal ground for VDD and the control circuitry, which is connected to thermal pad electronically.
The signal ground return path should be separate from the power ground (PGND) return path.
Feedback Input. Input to the transconductance amplifier of the control loop. The FB pin is regulated
to 0.8V. A resistor divider connecting the feedback to the output is used to set the desired output
voltage.
Power Good Output. Open drain output, an external pull-up resistor to VDD or external power rails
is required.
Enable Input. A logic signal to enable or disable the buck converter operation. The EN pin is CMOS
compatible. Logic high enables the device, logic low shutdowns the regulator. In the disable mode,
the VDD supply current for the device is minimized to 0.7mA typically.
Supply Voltage. The VIN operating voltage range is from 4.5V to 38V. A 1μF ceramic capacitor from
VIN to AGND is required for decoupling.
Exposed Pad. Connect the EPAD to PGND plain on the PCB to improve the thermal performance.
