Product details
Overview
MIC2289-24YML-TR from Microchip Technology is a constant-frequency PWM boost switching regulator optimized for constant-current white LED driver applications. It operates from 2.5V to 10V input, delivers up to 34V output with 24V overvoltage protection (OVP), integrates a Schottky diode, and supports >500 mA switch current in a 2 mm × 2 mm DFN-8 package. It is used in compact backlighting systems for portable devices requiring high efficiency and low quiescent current.
For engineers reviewing the MIC2289-24YML-TR datasheet, MIC2289-24YML-TR pinout, MIC2289-24YML-TR application, or MIC2289-24YML-TR equivalent, key selection criteria include OVP threshold (24V), 95 mV feedback reference, 1.2 MHz fixed-frequency operation, internal Schottky diode integration, and thermal performance in the DFN-8 package across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range.
Technical Context
The MIC2289-24YML-TR implements current-mode PWM control with a 1.2 MHz oscillator, slope-compensated ramp generator, and gm error amplifier referenced to 95 mV. Its bipolar output transistor delivers up to 750 mA typical switch current limit and features integrated Schottky diode with 0.8 V forward drop at 150 mA.
OVP is implemented via the OUT pin with a factory-set 24V clamp (21–24V range), protecting against open-LED faults. The device uses separate analog ground (AGND) and power ground (PGND) pins, and shutdown current is <1 μA with EN logic-low assertion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5 V to 10 V - supports single-cell Li-ion and multi-cell alkaline/battery inputs without external regulation. |
| OVP Threshold | 24 V (21–24 V range) - clamps output during open-LED fault, enabling use of 25 V-rated output capacitors. |
| Feedback Voltage | 95 mV ±5% - minimizes power loss in current-sense resistor and enables precise LED current setting (e.g., 20 mA with 4.75 Ω). |
| Switching Frequency | 1.2 MHz (1.05–1.35 MHz) - allows small external inductors (e.g., 4.7–10 μH) and reduces input ripple noise vs. variable-frequency alternatives. |
| Switch Current Limit | 750 mA typical - supports driving up to 6-series white LEDs at 20 mA with margin for transient loads. |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and automotive cabin-temperature environments without derating. |
| Shutdown Current | <1 μA - enables ultra-low-power standby in battery-powered LED flashlights and portable displays. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin 2 mm × 2 mm DFN (ML), 0.9 mm height, exposed thermal pad (EP), RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Output & OVP Sense | Connects to output capacitor anode and LED anodes; monitors output voltage for 24V OVP clamp activation. |
| 2 (VIN) | Power Input | Supplies internal circuitry; accepts 2.5–10 V; requires local 1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor. |
| 3 (EN) | Enable Control | Logic-high (>1.5 V) enables regulation; logic-low (<0.4 V) disables switching and reduces VIN current to <1 μA. |
| 4 (AGND) | Analog Ground | Reference for FB and internal error amplifier; must be routed separately from PGND to minimize noise coupling. |
| 5 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; leave floating or tie to AGND per layout best practice (no electrical function). |
| 6 (SW) | Switch Node | Collector of internal bipolar transistor; connects to inductor and Schottky cathode; carries high di/dt switching current. |
| 7 (FB) | Current Sense Input | Connects to LED cathode and sense resistor to ground; regulates LED current via 95 mV reference. |
| 8 (PGND) | Power Ground | Return path for switch current and Schottky; must be low-inductance connection to EP and input/output capacitors. |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Thermal and electrical ground; must be soldered to PCB thermal plane for θJA = 93°C/W and reliable 125°C operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Schottky Diode | Eliminates external diode, saves board space, and reduces BOM count-forward drop 0.8 V at 150 mA ensures minimal conduction loss. |
| 24V Output OVP | Factory-trimmed clamp prevents damage during LED string open-circuit failure; enables smaller, lower-voltage output capacitors (e.g., 25 V rating). |
| 95 mV Feedback Reference | Reduces I²R loss in current-sense resistor by >50% vs. 1.25 V references, improving efficiency and thermal performance in space-constrained designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar white LED driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM3409MY/NOPB | External MOSFET driver; no integrated Schottky; adjustable OVP; 1.6 MHz switching. | Requires external high-side N-MOSFET and Schottky; supports higher output voltages (>60 V) but larger solution size. | Select when >34 V output or programmable OVP is required; not drop-in due to different topology and pinout. |
| TPS61165DRVR | Integrated MOSFET; no internal Schottky; 40 V OVP option; 1.2 MHz; 1.6 A switch current. | Higher current capability but lacks internal Schottky-requires external diode; OVP fixed at 40 V, less optimal for 24 V–rated capacitors. | Choose for higher LED current (up to 40 mA) or tighter EMI control; verify external diode thermal design and capacitor voltage derating. |
Compared with LM3409MY/NOPB and TPS61165DRVR, the MIC2289-24YML-TR offers smallest footprint and lowest component count due to integrated Schottky and factory-set 24V OVP, making it optimal for space-constrained portable backlighting where 24V fault protection suffices.

FAQ
What is the OVP threshold for MIC2289-24YML-TR, and how is it enforced?
The MIC2289-24YML-TR has a factory-set output overvoltage protection (OVP) threshold of 24 V, with a guaranteed range of 21–24 V. This OVP is enforced via the OUT pin, which actively clamps the output voltage during open-LED conditions to prevent damage to the IC and output capacitor. The clamp action is internal and does not require external components, enabling direct use with 25 V-rated output capacitors in MIC2289-24YML-TR designs.
Can MIC2289-24YML-TR drive more than six white LEDs in series?
The MIC2289-24YML-TR supports output voltages up to 34 V, sufficient for driving up to eight standard white LEDs (3.2 V VF each) in series at room temperature. However, its 24 V OVP threshold limits safe sustained operation to ≤7 LEDs (22.4 V max at 3.2 V), and thermal derating at high ambient temperatures further constrains practical use to six LEDs in most portable applications. Always verify worst-case VF and temperature coefficients in MIC2289-24YML-TR designs.
Does MIC2289-24YML-TR require an external Schottky diode?
No, the MIC2289-24YML-TR integrates a Schottky diode internally, eliminating the need for an external diode. This reduces bill-of-materials count, PCB area, and assembly cost. The integrated diode has a typical forward voltage drop of 0.8 V at 150 mA and reverse leakage <4 μA at 30 V, as specified in the MIC2289-24YML-TR datasheet.
How is LED current set in MIC2289-24YML-TR, and what is the role of the 95 mV reference?
LED current in the MIC2289-24YML-TR is set by a single external resistor connected between the FB pin and ground, calculated as RFB = 95 mV / ILED. The 95 mV internal reference minimizes power dissipation in the sense resistor-e.g., only 190 μW for 2 mA LED current-improving efficiency and reducing self-heating versus higher-reference alternatives. This precision reference is trimmed and stable across temperature in MIC2289-24YML-TR.
What package type and thermal characteristics apply to MIC2289-24YML-TR?
The MIC2289-24YML-TR uses the 8-pin 2 mm × 2 mm DFN (ML) package with exposed thermal pad (EP). Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) is 93°C/W with proper PCB copper pour, supporting continuous operation at full load up to +125°C junction temperature. The EP must be soldered to a dedicated thermal plane for compliance with MIC2289-24YML-TR thermal specifications.
