MIC94300 Evaluation Board
200mA Switch
with Ripple Blocker™ Technology
General Description
The MIC94300 is an integrated load switch that
incorporates Micrel’s Ripple Blocker™ active filter
technology. The MIC94300 provides high-frequency
ripple attenuation for applications where switching noise
cannot be tolerated by sensitive downstream circuits
such as in RF applications. The MIC94300 replaces a
high-side switch, large filtering inductor, and capacitors
to save board area.
The MIC94300 operates from an input voltage of 1.8V to
3.6V, allowing true load switching of low-voltage power
rails in any electronic device. The output voltage (V
OUT
)
is set at a fixed drop from the input voltage.
Datasheets and support documentation can be found on
Micrel’s web site at
www.micrel.com.
Requirements
The MIC94300 evaluation board requires an input power
supply that is capable of delivering a minimum of 300mA
at a voltage range of 1.8V to 3.6V. The output load can
be either active or passive.
Precautions
The MIC94300 evaluation board does not have reverse
polarity protection. Applying a negative voltage to the
V
IN
terminal may damage the device.
Getting Started
•
Connect an External Supply to V
IN
. Apply the
desired input voltage to the V
IN
and ground terminal
of the evaluation board, paying careful attention to
polarity and supply voltage (1.8V
≤
V
IN
≤
3.6V).
•
Enable/Disable the MIC94300.
The evaluation
board is supplied with 100kΩ pull-up resistor to V
IN
for default on state. To disable the output, simply
jumper the EN terminal to ground.
•
Connect the Load.
Connect the load to the V
OUT
terminal and the ground terminal. The load can be
either a passive (resistor) or active (electronic load).
Be sure to monitor the output voltage at the V
OUT
terminal.

MIC94300 Evaluation Board
PSRR measurements may be made using either
dedicated PSRR test equipment or with a PSRR
interface board and a network analyzer. The network
analyzer can sweep the AC frequency and perform a
comparison measurement of the amplitude on the
input and output. With this method, the network
analyzer is configured for an A/R measurement. The
difficulty arises when trying to impose the network
analyzer’s AC signal with the DC input voltage to the
MIC94300. The circuit shown in Figure 3
accomplishes this by using the MIC911 as a summing
amplifier. The summing amplifier adds the V
SUPPLY
(DC voltage) and the network analyzers AC signal. As
the network analyzers source is 50Ω impedance it
may be neglected, the DC voltage seen at the non-
inverting side is half of the V
SUPPLY
voltage. The output
is gained up by 2 with the 1kΩ resistor divider to the
non-inverting side. This sums the AC and DC voltages
with an overall gain of 1.

Frequency Response
For high-frequency measurements (above 1MHz),
careful attention must be made to the test set-up
configuration as it is easy to introduce noise into the
grounds which will give inaccurate measurements as
shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. High-Frequency Noise on
Measurement System
The inductance of test probes connected to the
evaluation board at higher frequencies becomes a
factor which can create a differential between the
device under test and test measurement system
grounds. Adding a low-value resistor (2Ω) in series
with the input capacitor to ground and utilizing a test
measurement system capable of making differential
measurements will help to reduce these affects.
