Single-Cell Switching Regulator Preliminary Information
General Description
Micrel’s MIC2571 is a micropower boost switching regulator that operates from one alkaline, nickel-metal-hydride cell, or lithium cell. The MIC2571 accepts a positive input
voltage between 0.9V and 15V. Its typical no-load supply current is 120µA. The MIC2571 is available in selectable fixed output or adjustable output versions. The MIC2571-1 can be configured for 2.85V, 3.3V, or 5V by connecting one of three separate feedback pins to the output. The MIC2571-2 can be configured for an output
voltage ranging between its input
voltage and 36V, using an external resistor network. The MIC2571 has a fixed switching frequency of 20kHz. An external SYNC connection allows the switching frequency to be synchronized to an external signal. The MIC2571 requires only four components (diode, inductor, input capacitor and output capacitor) to implement a boost regulator. A complete regulator can be constructed in a 0.3 in2 area. All versions are available in an 8-lead MSOP with an operating range from –40°C to +85°.
