¡El MIC4575 is a series of easy to use fixed and adjustable BiCMOS step-down (buck) switch-mode voltage regulators. ¡El 200 kHz MIC4575 duplicates the pinout and function of the 52 kHz LM2575. The higher switching frequency may allow up to a 2:1 reduction in output filter inductor size. ¡El MIC4575 is available in 3.3V and 5V fixed output versions or a 1.23V to 20V adjustable output version. Both versions are capable of driving a 1A load with excellent line and load regulation. ¡El feedback voltage is guaranteed to ±2% tolerance for adjustable versions, and the output voltage is guaranteed to ±3% for fixed versions, within specified voltages and load conditions. ¡El oscillator frequency is guaranteed to ±10%. In shutdown mode, the regulator draws less than 200 μA standby current. ¡El regulator performs cycle-by-cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown for protection under fault conditions. This series of simple switch-mode regulators requires a minimum number of external components and can operate using a standard series of inductors. Frequency compensation is provided internally. ¡El MIC4575 is available in TO-220 (T) and DDPAK (U) packages for the industrial temperature range.
