Product details
Overview
MIC33050-CYHL-TR from Microchip Technology is a 4 MHz synchronous buck DC-DC power module with integrated inductor, delivering 600 mA output current at fixed 1.0 V output voltage, operating from 2.7 V to 5.5 V input, and featuring HyperLight Load® architecture for ultra-low quiescent current (20 µA) and fast transient response-designed for space-constrained MPU and wearable power rails.
For engineers reviewing the MIC33050-CYHL-TR datasheet, MIC33050-CYHL-TR pinout, MIC33050-CYHL-TR application, or MIC33050-CYHL-TR equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package mapping, real-world load regulation performance (±0.3%), feedback voltage accuracy (400 mV ±2.5%), and validated alternatives for low-voltage, high-efficiency portable power design.
Technical Context
The MIC33050-CYHL-TR implements a proprietary HyperLight Load® control scheme combining minimum on/off time PFM at light loads (<100 mA) and seamless transition to fixed 4 MHz PWM operation in continuous conduction mode above ~150 mA, enabling >85% efficiency at 1 mA and >93% peak efficiency. Its internal PMOS/NMOS synchronous switch pair features RDS(ON) of 0.45 Ω (high-side) and 0.5 Ω (low-side), optimized for low dropout and minimal switching loss.
It integrates a 400 mV internal reference and supports fixed-output configuration via internal resistor divider (no external FB network required), with dedicated SNS and CFF pins enabling precise output voltage sensing and feed-forward compensation-critical for maintaining <1% output voltage deviation across –40°C to +125°C junction temperature range and 2.7–5.5 V input variation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.0 V ±2.5% - ensures stable core supply for low-voltage MPUs without external feedback resistors. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, USB 5 V, and regulated 3.3 V rails. |
| Max Output Current | 600 mA - sufficient for modern ARM Cortex-M7/M8 cores and RF transceivers in compact wearables. |
| Quiescent Current | 20 µA typical - extends battery life in always-on sensor nodes and BLE peripherals. |
| Switching Frequency | 4 MHz nominal - enables use of tiny 2.2 µF ceramic output capacitors and reduces EMI filter size. |
| Efficiency @ 1 mA | >85% - maintains usable runtime even during deep sleep modes in IoT endpoints. |
| Junction Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive cabin and industrial edge computing environments. |
| Package | 12-pin 3 mm × 3 mm HDFN - thermally enhanced with exposed ePAD for PCB-level heat dissipation. |
Pinout & Package
12-pin 3 mm × 3 mm HDFN package with exposed thermal pad (ePAD) connected to PGND for optimal thermal performance. Pin numbering follows standard top-view orientation with pin 1 marked by dot/delta.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN (Pin 1) | Power Input | Accepts 2.7–5.5 V supply; requires ≥2.2 µF ceramic bypass capacitor close to PGND to suppress high-frequency noise. |
| PGND (Pin 2) | Power Ground | High-current return path for MOSFET switches; must be routed separately from AGND to avoid ground bounce. |
| SW (Pins 3–6) | Switch Node | Internal inductor connection point; carries high di/dt switching current-keep trace short and away from sensitive analog nodes. |
| OUT (Pins 7–8) | Regulated Output | Delivers fixed 1.0 V; connects directly to 2.2 µF+ output capacitor-ripple <10 mVPP at full load. |
| EN (Pin 9) | Enable Control | Active-high logic input (0.8 V threshold); enables soft-start and micropower shutdown (<4 µA). |
| SNS (Pin 10) | Voltage Sense | Monitors regulated output at OUT capacitor; used internally for error amplification in fixed-output mode. |
| CFF (Pin 11) | Feed-Forward Compensation | Connects to SNS via 560 pF capacitor; improves transient response by injecting derivative gain into control loop. |
| AGND (Pin 12) | Analog Ground | Reference for internal error amplifier and reference circuitry; must be tied to PGND only at single point near ePAD. |
| ePAD | Thermal Heatsink | Exposed copper pad beneath package; soldered to large PGND copper area for θJA = 60°C/W thermal resistance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fixed-output buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MIC33050-4YHL-TR | Fixed 1.2 V output; identical package, pinout, and HyperLight Load® architecture. | Requires system-level voltage margin adjustment-suitable where 1.2 V is acceptable for newer LPDDR interfaces. | Select when target SoC specifies 1.2 V core voltage and board layout allows minor VOUT change without redesign. |
| TI TPS6208818RTER | 1.8 V fixed output; 2 A capability; 2.5–5.5 V input; no integrated inductor; 2.0 mm × 2.0 mm QFN. | Lacks integrated inductor-requires external 1.0 µH inductor and increases layout complexity and EMI risk. | Choose only if higher current (>600 mA) or smaller footprint (2 mm² vs 9 mm²) outweighs BOM simplification and thermal benefits of MIC33050-CYHL-TR. |
Compared with MIC33050-4YHL-TR and TPS6208818RTER, the MIC33050-CYHL-TR uniquely combines 1.0 V fixed output, integrated inductor, and HyperLight Load® efficiency-making it the only drop-in solution for space- and battery-limited 1.0 V MPU rails without compromising transient response or thermal performance.

FAQ
What is the output voltage of the MIC33050-CYHL-TR?
The MIC33050-CYHL-TR provides a fixed 1.0 V output voltage with ±2.5% accuracy over temperature and line/load conditions. This value is set internally via laser-trimmed resistors-no external feedback components are required, simplifying design and improving long-term stability compared to adjustable regulators.
Does the MIC33050-CYHL-TR require an external inductor?
No, the MIC33050-CYHL-TR integrates a high-frequency power inductor within its 3 mm × 3 mm HDFN package. This eliminates the need for external magnetics, reduces EMI susceptibility, and cuts total solution size-making it ideal for ultra-dense PCB layouts where board space and component count are critical constraints.
What is the maximum output current rating for the MIC33050-CYHL-TR?
The MIC33050-CYHL-TR delivers up to 600 mA of continuous output current under typical thermal conditions (θJA = 60°C/W, TA ≤ 85°C). At full load and 5.5 V input, peak efficiency exceeds 93%, and thermal derating begins above 125°C junction temperature-monitored via internal overtemperature shutdown at 165°C.
How does the HyperLight Load® feature improve efficiency at light loads?
The HyperLight Load® architecture in the MIC33050-CYHL-TR uses pulse-frequency modulation (PFM) below ~150 mA, reducing switching losses while maintaining fast transient response. This achieves >85% efficiency at just 1 mA output-significantly outperforming conventional PWM-only regulators that drop below 50% efficiency at microamp loads.
Is the MIC33050-CYHL-TR pin-compatible with other MIC33050 variants?
Yes, all MIC33050 variants-including MIC33050-CYHL-TR (1.0 V), MIC33050-4YHL-TR (1.2 V), and MIC33050-GYHL-TR (1.8 V)-share identical 12-pin 3 mm × 3 mm HDFN pinout and thermal pad layout. Only the output voltage differs; no PCB changes are needed when migrating between fixed-output versions.
