Product details
Overview
MIC23099YFT-T5 from Microchip Technology is a dual-output synchronous boost-buck PMIC designed for single-cell alkaline/NiMH battery systems. It delivers 400 mW at VOUT1 (adjustable 1.8–3.3 V) and 30 mA at VOUT2 (adjustable 1.0–VOUT1), with >90% efficiency across 5–200 mA load range, low-noise operation (>80 kHz buck / >100 kHz boost), and integrated battery monitoring for audio headsets and portable medical sensors.
For engineers reviewing the MIC23099YFT-T5 datasheet, MIC23099YFT-T5 pinout, MIC23099YFT-T5 application, or MIC23099YFT-T5 equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed dual-regulator sequencing behavior, real-world efficiency curves, and two field-validated alternative parts for battery-powered PMIC selection.
Technical Context
The MIC23099YFT-T5 implements a cascaded power architecture: the synchronous boost regulator (VOUT1) powers up first from VIN (0.85–1.6 V), then supplies the synchronous buck regulator (VOUT2). This enables VOUT2 to operate independently of battery voltage-e.g., generating 1.0 V even as VIN drops to 0.85 V-while maintaining tight regulation via 0.6 V feedback references (FB1/FB2) with ±2.5% tolerance over temperature.
It integrates adaptive PWM/PFM mode switching, anti-ringing control on both SW1 and SW2 nodes (80–140 Ω internal resistance), soft-start timing (5 ms for boost, 0.1 ms for buck), and fault management including thermal shutdown (150°C), hiccup-mode short-circuit protection, and programmable cool-off delay (750–2250 ms) before restart after VIN or output faults.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIN Range | 0.85 V to 1.6 V - supports full operation from fresh to depleted single AA/AAA cells without external LDO pre-regulation. |
| VOUT1 Range | 1.8 V to 3.3 V adjustable - sets bias rail for downstream logic or RF circuitry; regulated by 0.6 V FB1 reference with ±2.5% accuracy. |
| VOUT2 Range | 1.0 V to VOUT1 adjustable - enables sub-1.2 V core supply (e.g., 1.0 V for microcontrollers) independent of battery sag. |
| Peak Efficiency | 92% at 100 mA - achieved in PWM mode with 1 MHz boost switching frequency and optimized internal MOSFETs (RHS = 200 mΩ, RLS = 140 mΩ). |
| Quiescent Current | 200 µA typical in PFM mode - extends runtime in always-on sensor nodes; drops to 0.02 µA in shutdown (VEN = 0 V). |
| Output Ripple | <10 mV peak-to-peak - minimized by anti-ringing circuitry and high PSRR (>50 dB at 217 Hz) for noise-sensitive analog/audio stages. |
| Thermal Protection | 150°C shutdown with 20°C hysteresis - prevents damage during sustained overload; junction-to-ambient θJA = 70°C/W in 2.5 mm × 2.5 mm QFN. |
Pinout & Package
14-pin 2.5 mm × 2.5 mm × 0.55 mm Thin QFN (TQFN-14, FT package code), exposed pad (EP) required for thermal and ground connection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (PGND1) | Boost Power Ground | Return path for boost converter high-side/low-side switches; must be isolated from AGND and PGND2 to prevent noise coupling. |
| 2 (VIN) | Battery Input | Primary supply input; start-up triggered at 0.75 V, regulated down to 0.85 V minimum operating threshold. |
| 3 (FB1) | Boost Feedback Input | Connects to resistor divider setting VOUT1; senses 0.6 V reference with ±2.5% tolerance across –40°C to +125°C. |
| 4 (NC) | No Connect | Unbonded pin; must remain floating-no PCB trace or solder mask opening required. |
| 5 (PG) | Power Good Output | Open-drain active-high signal asserting when both outputs are within 90% of target; deglitched (60–120 ms) for fault immunity. |
| 6 (EN) | Enable Input | CMOS-compatible control; 4 MΩ internal pull-down ensures default OFF; rising-edge threshold 0.58 V (typical) at 25°C. |
| 7 (LED) | Low-Battery Indicator | Open-drain output driving external LED; blinks at 0.25 Hz / 25% duty cycle when VIN = 1.15–1.25 V; off below 0.85 V. |
| 8 (AGND) | Analog Ground | Reference for FB1/FB2 comparators and error amplifiers; requires star-point connection to minimize offset drift. |
| 9 (FB2) | Buck Feedback Input | Sets VOUT2 via resistor divider; shares same 0.6 V reference as FB1 but with independent regulation loop. |
| 10 (OUT2) | Buck Output Node | Supplies load directly; actively discharged to GND via 500–700 Ω internal resistor when EN = low or PG = low. |
| 11 (PGND2) | Buck Power Ground | Return path for buck converter; separate from PGND1 to avoid cross-regulator ground bounce. |
| 12 (SW2) | Buck Switch Node | Connects to inductor; high-speed switching node requiring short/wide routing; anti-ringing switch engages at zero-current crossing. |
| 13 (OUT1) | Boost Output Node | Primary regulated output powering VOUT2 and system logic; actively discharged (500–700 Ω) during shutdown. |
| 14 (SW1) | Boost Switch Node | Connects to input inductor; operates up to 1 MHz; anti-ringing switch minimizes EMI during discontinuous conduction mode. |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Must be soldered to solid GND plane for thermal dissipation (θJC = 25°C/W) and low-impedance return path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual cascaded regulation | VOUT2 powered from VOUT1-not VIN-enabling stable 1.0 V core supply even as battery decays from 1.5 V to 0.85 V. |
| Audio-band noise suppression | Minimum 80 kHz (buck) / 100 kHz (boost) switching frequencies avoid audible artifacts; anti-ringing circuit reduces EMI peaks. |
| Active output discharge | Internal 500–700 Ω resistors on OUT1/OUT2 ensure rapid, controlled capacitor discharge during shutdown-critical for safe hot-swap. |
| Integrated battery monitoring | Programmable LED blink (0.25 Hz, 25% duty) between 1.15–1.25 V; automatic cutoff at 0.85 V after 15 cool-off cycles. |
| Robust fault protection | Thermal shutdown (150°C), short-circuit hiccup (15 cycles), VIN/VOUT fault detection with deglitch delays (60–180 ms), and PG assertion. |

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for MIC23099YFT-T5 to start up?
The MIC23099YFT-T5 has a minimum start-up voltage of 0.75 V (typical), with guaranteed operation above 0.9 V. This allows reliable turn-on from deeply discharged alkaline or NiMH cells. Once started, it continues regulating down to 0.85 V before triggering low-battery indication and eventual shutdown after cool-off cycles.
How does the MIC23099YFT-T5 manage output sequencing between VOUT1 and VOUT2?
The MIC23099YFT-T5 enforces strict power-up sequencing: VOUT1 (boost) powers up first and stabilizes before enabling VOUT2 (buck). This ensures the buck regulator always receives a valid input voltage, preventing instability or undervoltage lockout. Sequencing is hardware-controlled and cannot be inverted or bypassed.
Can MIC23099YFT-T5 generate VOUT2 higher than VOUT1?
No. The MIC23099YFT-T5 specifies VOUT2 range as "1.0 V to VOUT1", meaning VOUT2 cannot exceed the configured VOUT1 value. Since VOUT2 is supplied by VOUT1, its maximum possible output equals VOUT1 minus internal drop-typically limited to ≤VOUT1 by design.
What is the purpose of the NC pin (Pin 4) on MIC23099YFT-T5?
Pin 4 is a true no-connect (NC) pin-unbonded internally and electrically isolated. It must remain unconnected on the PCB: no trace, no solder mask opening, and no grounding. Routing near this pin carries no risk, as it has no internal connection to any circuit node.
Does MIC23099YFT-T5 support external synchronization of its switching frequency?
No. The MIC23099YFT-T5 uses internally generated clocking with fixed PWM frequency (1.0 MHz typical for boost, 80–100 kHz for buck in PFM mode). There is no SYNC pin or external clock input; frequency is determined solely by internal oscillator and load conditions.
