Exar PowerBlox buck regulators feature extremely high current densities.
Such load swings are commonly experienced by FPGA and low-voltage ASIC power supplies.
The output voltage can be adjusted down to 0.7V to address all low-voltage power needs.
The MIC22600 is a 6A integrated synchronous buck regulator and is optimised for efficiency, achieving more than 90% while switching at 1MHz over a broad load range.
A full range of sequencing and tracking options is available.
The enable/delay pin, combined with the power good/POR pin, allows multiple outputs to be sequenced in any way during turn-on and turn-off.
The RC (ramp control) pin allows the device to be connected to another product in the MIC22xxx and/or MIC68xxx family, to keep the output voltages within a certain range on start-up.
The device's input voltage range is 2.6 to 5.5V.
The MIC22600 is available in a 24-pin 4 by 4mm MLF package with a junction operating temperature range from -40 to 125C.
Suitable applications include high-power-density point of load conversion, servers and routers, DVD recorders, computing peripherals, basestations and FPGA/DSP/low-voltage ASIC power.
