Product details
Overview
MIC22400YTSE from Microchip Technology is a 4A integrated synchronous buck regulator with adjustable output down to 0.7V, 300 kHz–4 MHz programmable switching frequency, and full sequencing/tracking capability for multi-rail systems. It delivers >90% efficiency at 1 MHz across wide load range and supports FPGA, ASIC, and server point-of-load applications requiring fast transient response and tight voltage tracking.
For engineers reviewing the MIC22400YTSE datasheet, MIC22400YTSE pinout, MIC22400YTSE application, or MIC22400YTSE equivalent, key selection factors include its 20-pin QFN (3 mm × 4 mm) package, 100% duty cycle operation, integrated 60 mΩ P-FET / 35 mΩ N-FET switches, thermal shutdown, and precise 0.7 V ±1% feedback reference-critical for low-voltage, high-density power delivery designs.
Technical Context
The MIC22400YTSE implements voltage-mode PWM control with an internal 1 MHz ramp generator and adaptive drive circuitry enabling ultra-fast transient response under FPGA/ASIC load steps. Its dual-input power architecture separates PVIN (for high-side switch) and SVIN (for signal circuitry), each with dedicated ground paths (PGND and SGND) to minimize noise coupling.
Sequencing is achieved via EN/DLY (1 μA current source, 1.24 V threshold) and DELAY (1 μA source/sink) pins, while RC pin enables programmable output slew rate for voltage tracking between multiple MIC22400YTSE units. The device supports soft-start, POR generation, and operates over –40°C to +125°C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.6 V to 5.5 V - supports single-supply operation from common intermediate bus rails (3.3 V, 5 V) |
| Output Current | Up to 4 A continuous - sufficient for core I/O power of FPGAs and low-voltage ASICs |
| Feedback Reference | 0.7 V ±1% - enables precise 0.7 V–5.5 V adjustable output with minimal resistor divider error |
| Switching Frequency | 300 kHz to 4 MHz - programmable via CF capacitor and optional RCF resistor for EMI optimization |
| Efficiency | >90% at 1 MHz, 1.2 V/4 A - reduces thermal load in high-power-density PCB layouts |
| Thermal Protection | 150°C overtemperature shutdown with 10°C hysteresis - prevents permanent damage during sustained overload |
| Duty Cycle Range | 0–100% - maintains regulation even during input voltage dropout conditions |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-pin 3 mm × 4 mm QFN with exposed thermal pad (EP). Pin mapping validated per Microchip DS20006243A, page 10.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| POR | Open-drain Power-On-Reset output | Signals output regulation status after DELAY timeout; requires external pull-up for system reset coordination |
| CF | Frequency programming input | Capacitor-to-GND sets switching frequency (300 kHz–4 MHz); adds resistor for sub-800 kHz operation |
| COMP | Compensation network node | RC network (resistor + capacitor to SGND) stabilizes voltage-mode loop with ceramic output capacitors |
| FB | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider; compares output to 0.7 V reference for closed-loop regulation |
| EN/DLY | Enable/delay control input | 1 μA current source charges external capacitor; 1.24 V threshold initiates startup with programmable delay |
| RC | Ramp control input | 1 μA current source sets output voltage slew rate during startup for precise tracking with other MIC22400YTSE units |
| SW | Switch node output | Drain connection of internal P-FET and N-FET; high di/dt path requiring short, wide PCB traces |
| PGND | Power ground | Return path for high-current N-FET source and SW node; must be low-inductance plane connection |
| SGND | Signal ground | Reference for FB, COMP, EN/DLY, RC, POR, CF - isolated from PGND to prevent noise coupling |
| PVIN / SVIN | Power and signal input supplies | PVIN powers high-side switch; SVIN powers control circuitry - both require local 22 μF X5R/X7R bypass |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum output current capability of the MIC22400YTSE?
The MIC22400YTSE supports up to 4 A continuous output current under typical thermal conditions. Its current limit is specified at 4 A minimum (7 A typical, 10 A max), and thermal shutdown activates at 150°C junction temperature. Actual achievable current depends on PCB layout, ambient temperature, and heatsinking-validated designs with 2-layer 2 oz copper achieve 4 A at +85°C ambient using the 3 mm × 4 mm QFN package.
Does the MIC22400YTSE support 100% duty cycle operation?
Yes, the MIC22400YTSE supports 100% duty cycle operation when the output voltage drops below regulation due to input voltage sag or heavy load. This feature maintains output regulation during input brownout conditions without requiring external components, preserving system uptime in industrial and telecom applications where input rails may fluctuate.
How is output voltage adjusted on the MIC22400YTSE?
The MIC22400YTSE uses a resistor divider connected to the FB pin to set output voltage, referenced to an internal 0.7 V ±1% precision bandgap. For example, a 10 kΩ lower resistor and 17.1 kΩ upper resistor yields 1.2 V output. Feedback impedance should remain ≤10 kΩ to minimize noise susceptibility, and a 50–100 pF capacitor across the lower resistor improves noise immunity.
What is the function of the RC pin on the MIC22400YTSE?
The RC pin on the MIC22400YTSE controls output voltage slew rate during startup by sourcing a precise 1 μA current into an external capacitor to ground. This enables voltage tracking between multiple MIC22400YTSE units-e.g., coordinating 1.2 V and 1.8 V rails to ramp within ±10 mV-without external timing circuitry or microcontroller intervention.
Can the MIC22400YTSE operate over the full industrial temperature range?
Yes, the MIC22400YTSE is rated for –40°C to +125°C junction temperature, meeting industrial and extended commercial requirements. Its electrical characteristics-including 0.7 V feedback reference, 1.24 V EN threshold, and 150°C thermal shutdown-are guaranteed across this range, making it suitable for base stations, factory automation, and outdoor networking equipment.
