¡El MIC23051 is a high efficiency 600 mA PWM synchronous buck (step-down) regulator featuring HyperLight Load®, a patented switching scheme that offers best in class light load efficiency and transient performance while providing very small external components and low output ripple at all loads. ¡El MIC23051 has an output voltage scaling feature that toggles between two different voltage levels. ¡El MIC23051 also has a very low typical quiescent current draw of 20 µA and can achieve over 85% efficiency even at 1 mA. ¡El device allows operation with a tiny inductor ranging from 0.47 µH to 2.2 µH and uses a small output capacitor that enables a sub 1 mm height solution. In contrast to traditional light load schemes, HyperLight Load® architecture does not need to trade off control speed to obtain low standby currents and in doing so the device only needs a small output capacitor to absorb the load transient as the powered device goes from light load to full load. At higher loads the MIC23051 provides a constant switching frequency of greater than 4 MHz while providing peak efficiencies greater than 93%. ¡El MIC23051 is available in fixed output voltage options eliminating external feedback components. ¡El MIC23051 is available in an 8-pin 2 mm x 2 mm DFN with a junction operating range from –40°C to +125°C.
