Product details
Overview
MIC24052YJL-TR from Microchip Technology is a synchronous step-down DC/DC buck regulator with adaptive on-time control, delivering up to 6A output current across 4.5V–19V input range, adjustable 0.8V–5.5V output, ±1% feedback accuracy, and 600 kHz fixed switching frequency-designed for high-efficiency power delivery in telecom base stations and server VRMs.
For engineers reviewing the MIC24052YJL-TR datasheet, MIC24052YJL-TR pinout, MIC24052YJL-TR application, or MIC24052YJL-TR equivalent, key selection considerations include HyperLight Load® light-load efficiency (80% @ 10 mA), Hyper Speed Control® architecture enabling high delta-V operation (19V→0.8V), integrated 5V LDO for gate drive (PVDD/VDD), Power Good (PG) signaling, and QFN-28 5×6 mm thermal performance (θJA = 28°C/W).
Technical Context
The MIC24052YJL-TR implements an adaptive on-time control architecture that maintains constant 600 kHz switching in continuous conduction mode while automatically transitioning to variable-frequency discontinuous mode under light load to sustain high efficiency. Its zero-crossing comparator monitors low-side MOSFET voltage during OFF-time for current sensing-eliminating external sense resistors-and enables hiccup-mode short-circuit protection with foldback current limiting (7.5–17 A threshold).
Internal 5V LDOs power both control logic (VDD) and high-side gate drivers (PVDD); PVDD must be tied to PVIN when VIN < 5.5V. The device supports safe startup into pre-biased outputs via internal soft-start (3 ms ramp) and features a dedicated CS pin for accurate valley-current sensing, BST bootstrapping with 0.1 µF capacitor, and open-drain PG output with 92% VOUT threshold and 100 µs delay.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 19V - supports wide industrial and telecom input rails including 12V and 19V systems without external regulation. |
| Output Current | 6A continuous - sufficient for CPU/GPU core rail or ASIC power domains in servers and networking equipment. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.8V to 5.5V adjustable - enables precise core voltage setting for modern processors and FPGAs via external resistor divider on FB pin. |
| Feedback Accuracy | ±1% at 0°C–85°C - ensures tight regulation critical for low-voltage digital loads where 20 mV error may cause functional failure. |
| Switching Frequency | 600 kHz nominal - balances EMI control, inductor size, and efficiency; tolerates ±25% variation due to VIN/VOUT ratio and load. |
| Efficiency | Up to 95% at full load; 80% at 10 mA - HyperLight Load® extends high efficiency across entire load range, reducing idle power in always-on systems. |
| Thermal Performance | θJA = 28°C/W (5×6 mm QFN) - enables 6A operation with minimal heatsinking on standard 4-layer PCBs per Microchip's layout guidelines. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 28-pin QFN (5 mm × 6 mm, 0.5 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad). Pin mapping validated per DS20005659A-page 16 Table 3-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PVDD (Pin 1) | 5V gate-drive LDO output | Supplies high-side MOSFET driver; requires 2.2 µF ceramic cap to PGND; tie to PVIN if VIN < 5.5V. |
| PGND (Pins 2,5–8,21) | Power ground return | Carries high di/dt switch-node current; must be routed separately from SGND with minimal loop area. |
| SW (Pins 4,9–12) | Switch node | Connects internal high-side source/low-side drain; high dv/dt node requiring short, isolated routing away from analog signals. |
| PVIN (Pins 13–19) | High-side MOSFET drain input | Primary input power path; multiple pins reduce resistance and inductance; bypass with parallel 4.7 µF ×2 ceramics to PGND. |
| BST (Pin 20) | Bootstrap supply | Drives high-side gate via 0.1 µF capacitor to SW; Schottky diode required from PVDD to BST for charge replenishment. |
| CS (Pin 22) | Current sense input | Senses low-side RDS(ON) voltage during OFF-time for overcurrent protection and zero-cross detection; Kelvin connection recommended. |
| SGND (Pin 23) | Signal ground reference | Reference for FB, EN, PG, VDD; must connect directly to ground plane-never to PGND on top layer. |
| FB (Pin 24) | Feedback input | Regulated to 0.8V; sets output via resistor divider (e.g., 2.49k/2.00k for 1.8V); ripple injection needed with ultra-low-ESR capacitors. |
| PG (Pin 25) | Power good open-drain | Asserts high when VOUT > 92% of target; requires external pull-up ≥10 kΩ to VDD for sequencing with downstream rails. |
| EN (Pin 26) | Enable control input | CMOS-compatible; high = active (min 1.8V), low = shutdown (5 µA quiescent); must not float. |
| VIN (Pin 27) | Main supply input | Feeds internal VDD LDO; bypass with 1 µF ceramic to SGND; UVLO threshold 3.7–4.5V rising. |
| VDD (Pin 28) | 5V control LDO output | Powers internal logic; requires 1 µF ceramic to SGND; output drops to 4.8–5.4V under 40 mA load. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MIC24051YJL-TR | Same family, 6A rating, but lacks HyperLight Load®-quiescent current 750 µA vs. 450 µA; no light-load discontinuous mode. | Better suited for constant-load applications where light-load efficiency is secondary to cost. | Select MIC24051YJL-TR only if system spends >90% time above 1A load and BOM cost is primary constraint. |
| TPS546B24RVFT | 6A PMBus-enabled buck with 0.5% FB accuracy, 1.2V–5.5V output, but requires external compensation and has higher 1.2 mA quiescent current. | Preferred where digital telemetry, margining, or multi-rail coordination via PMBus is required. | Choose TPS546B24RVFT when firmware-controlled voltage adjustment or real-time efficiency monitoring is mandatory. |
Compared with MIC24051YJL-TR, the MIC24052YJL-TR adds critical light-load efficiency for always-on telecom nodes; versus TPS546B24RVFT, it trades digital control for lower component count and simpler layout-ideal for cost-sensitive, analog-only power designs.

FAQ
What is the minimum output voltage supported by the MIC24052YJL-TR?
The MIC24052YJL-TR supports an adjustable output voltage down to 0.8V, set by the external resistor divider on the FB pin. This 0.8V minimum is guaranteed across the full –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range and aligns with core voltage requirements of modern CPUs and FPGAs. The feedback reference voltage is trimmed to 0.8V ±1% at 25°C, ensuring precision regulation even at ultra-low output levels.
Does the MIC24052YJL-TR require external current-sense resistors?
No, the MIC24052YJL-TR does not require external current-sense resistors. It uses the RDS(ON) of its internal low-side MOSFET (12.5 mΩ typical) to sense inductor current during the OFF-time via the CS pin-enabling accurate overcurrent protection and zero-cross detection without added cost, board space, or power loss. This integrated sensing also supports hiccup-mode short-circuit protection with foldback characteristics.
How does the MIC24052YJL-TR handle startup into a pre-biased output?
The MIC24052YJL-TR supports safe startup into a pre-biased output by disabling the high-side MOSFET until the FB voltage falls below the 0.8V reference, preventing reverse current flow through the low-side MOSFET. This behavior-verified in Figure 2-38 of the datasheet-ensures compatibility with hot-swap systems and multi-rail power architectures where downstream capacitance may retain residual voltage during power sequencing.
What thermal derating applies to the MIC24052YJL-TR at elevated ambient temperatures?
Per DS20005659A-page 6, the MIC24052YJL-TR has θJA = 28°C/W on a 5-square-inch 4-layer FR-4 PCB. At 85°C ambient, maximum continuous output current derates to approximately 4.2A (calculated as PD(MAX) = (125°C − 85°C)/28°C/W ≈ 1.43W; using 95% efficiency at 12V→1.8V yields ~4.2A). Full 6A operation is guaranteed only up to 55°C ambient under Microchip's reference layout conditions.
Can the MIC24052YJL-TR operate with ceramic output capacitors having near-zero ESR?
Yes, but ripple injection is required. The MIC24052YJL-TR's adaptive on-time control relies on feedback voltage ripple proportional to inductor current ripple. With ultra-low-ESR ceramic capacitors, this ripple becomes insufficient for reliable triggering-so a 4.7 nF capacitor (as shown in the Typical Application Schematic) must be added from FB to SW to inject controlled ripple (~20–100 mV peak-to-peak), ensuring stable operation and proper transient response.
