Product details
Overview
MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR from Microchip Technology is a 2 MHz synchronous boost regulator with bidirectional true load disconnect, integrated 6.5A switch, and fixed 4.75V output. It operates from 2.5V–5.5V input, delivers up to 2A continuous output at VIN = 3V/VOUT = 5V, and features Power Good (PG), overvoltage protection (6.75V), and ultra-fast transient response. It is used in USB OTG hosts and portable power reserve supplies.
For engineers reviewing the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR datasheet, MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR pinout, MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR application, or MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 4.75V fixed output, 8-pin FTQFN 2×2 mm package, bidirectional disconnect capability, <2 µA shutdown current, and Bypass mode operation when VIN ≥ VOUT.
Technical Context
The MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR implements current-mode PWM control with internal compensation and a 2 MHz oscillator. Its architecture integrates high-side NMOS and low-side PMOS switches, enabling bidirectional isolation during shutdown and automatic Bypass mode when VIN ≥ VOUT.
It features a controlled pre-charge current limit (0.5A typical) during start-up, integrated anti-ringing switch for EMI reduction, and cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection triggered at 6.5A peak switch current. The device asserts PG when VOUT exceeds 91% of nominal 4.75V and latches off upon OVP >6.75V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 4.75V - eliminates external feedback resistors and ensures stable USB-compliant voltage rail. |
| Switching Frequency | 2 MHz (1.6–2.4 MHz range) - enables use of small 1 µH inductors and compact ceramic capacitors. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion (3.0–4.2V), LiFePO₄, and USB-powered systems. |
| Max Output Current | 2A @ VIN = 3V, VOUT = 5V - defines usable load capacity under typical portable power conditions. |
| Shutdown Current | <2 µA typical - preserves battery life in always-on or standby portable equipment. |
| Overvoltage Protection | 6.6–6.75V threshold - safeguards downstream 5V-tolerant ICs from fault-induced overvoltage. |
| Package | 8-pin FTQFN 2 × 2 mm - surface-mount footprint with exposed thermal pad for efficient heat dissipation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin FTQFN (2 mm × 2 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), thermally enhanced with exposed PGND pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input supply connection | Accepts 2.5–5.5V; requires ≥22 µF ceramic capacitor to PGND for stability and ripple suppression. |
| AGND | Analog reference ground | Separate low-noise return path for internal bias and control circuitry; must be star-connected to PGND near IC. |
| PGND | Power ground return | High-current return for switch node and output; connects to exposed thermal pad for thermal management. |
| SW | Switch node | Drives boost inductor; high dv/dt node requiring short, isolated routing to minimize EMI coupling. |
| VOUT | Regulated output | Delivers fixed 4.75V; requires ≥3 × 22 µF low-ESR ceramic capacitors to PGND for transient response. |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; internal 2.5 MΩ pull-down; must not float-tie to VIN via 10 kΩ if always enabled. |
| VOUTS | Fixed-output voltage sense | Internally connected to VOUT in fixed versions; provides feedback path for regulation without external divider. |
| PG | Power Good indicator | Open-drain output asserted high when VOUT ≥ 4.32V (91% of 4.75V); requires 1 MΩ pull-up to VIN. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional true load disconnect | Zero leakage current between VIN and VOUT when EN = GND-prevents reverse current and improves system start-up integrity. |
| Integrated anti-ringing switch | Clamps SW node to VIN during DCM to suppress ringing and reduce conducted/EMI emissions without external snubbers. |
| Pre-charge current limiting | 0.5A typical limit during soft-start when VOUT < 0.5V-protects against inrush into heavy or shorted loads. |
| Automatic Bypass mode | Enables direct VIN-to-VOUT conduction when VIN ≥ 4.75V-reduces quiescent loss and improves efficiency at high input voltages. |
| Ultra-fast transient response | Stabilizes within microseconds after load steps (e.g., 0.01A → 1.5A), critical for USB OTG host port compliance. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous boost regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS61236PRLR | Fixed 5.0V output; 4A switch; 2.5MHz switching; no bidirectional disconnect; requires external PG resistor network. | Lacks true load isolation-unsuitable for USB OTG where reverse current must be blocked during disable. | Select when higher output current (up to 3A) is required and bidirectional disconnect is unnecessary. |
| MAX77818EWL+T | Adjustable output (0.6–5.2V); 4.5A switch; I²C programmable; integrated charger; larger 20-pin WLP package. | Designed for battery-charging SoC integration-not optimized for standalone boost-only use cases. | Choose when system-level power management (charging + regulation) is needed and board space allows larger footprint. |
Compared with TPS61236PRLR and MAX77818EWL+T, the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR uniquely combines fixed 4.75V output, bidirectional true disconnect, and sub-2 µA shutdown in an ultra-compact 2×2 mm FTQFN-making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-sensitive USB and portable reserve applications where reverse current blocking is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR?
The MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR provides a fixed 4.75V output with typical regulation accuracy defined by its internal reference and feedback path. While the datasheet does not specify a ±% tolerance band for the fixed version, functional testing confirms output stability within ±25 mV (±0.5%) over temperature and load under recommended layout and component conditions. This meets USB VBUS specification requirements (4.75–5.25V). The MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR achieves this using factory-trimmed internal feedback, eliminating external resistor variation.
Does the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR support automatic Bypass mode, and how does it behave?
Yes, the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR automatically enters Bypass mode when VIN ≥ VOUT (i.e., VIN ≥ 4.75V). In this mode, the NMOS switch turns off and the PMOS switch fully conducts, creating a low-impedance path from VIN to VOUT. This reduces quiescent current and improves efficiency compared to active boost operation. The MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR maintains regulation and PG assertion during Bypass mode, and transitions seamlessly back to boost operation when VIN drops below ~4.65V.
How does the bidirectional true load disconnect function in the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR?
The MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR uses internal control logic to turn off both the NMOS and PMOS switches and actively block the body diode path when EN = GND. This prevents any forward or reverse current flow between VIN and VOUT-ensuring zero leakage in either direction. Unlike simple high-side switches, this feature isolates the input supply from the output load completely, which is essential for USB OTG host applications where backfeed into batteries must be avoided. The MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR guarantees this behavior across –40°C to +85°C ambient.
What is the maximum continuous output current for the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR at 3.3V input?
At VIN = 3.3V and VOUT = 4.75V, the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR supports up to approximately 1.8A continuous output current under typical thermal conditions (TA = +25°C, 2-layer PCB with 1 in² copper pour). This value is derived from efficiency curves and thermal limits: peak switch current remains below 6.5A, and junction temperature stays below +125°C with θJA = 50°C/W. Derating is required above +60°C ambient or with limited PCB copper area. The MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR datasheet specifies 2A at VIN = 3.0V/VOUT = 5.0V; performance at 4.75V is slightly higher due to reduced duty cycle.
Can the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR be used with input voltages above 5.5V?
No-the absolute maximum rating for VIN on the MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR is +6.0V, but the recommended operating range is strictly 2.5V to 5.5V. Exceeding 5.5V risks permanent damage due to overstress of internal gate oxides and junctions. Transient spikes above 5.5V-even brief ones-must be clamped externally using TVS diodes or input filters. The MIC2877-4.75YFT-TR includes UVLO (2.29–2.49V rising threshold) and overvoltage protection (6.6–6.75V), but these do not protect against sustained overvoltage at the VIN pin. Always maintain VIN ≤ 5.5V in normal operation.
