Datasheet Summary
Micrel, Inc.
200kHz Simple 0.5A Buck Regulator
General Description
The MIC4574 is a series of easy to use fixed and adjustable BiCMOS step-down (buck) switch-mode voltage regulators. The 200kHz MIC4574 duplicates the pinout and function of the 52kHz LM2574. The higher switching frequency may allow up to a 2:1 reduction in output filter inductor size.
The MIC4574 is available in 3.3V, and 5V fixed output versions or a 1.23V to 20V adjustable output version. Both versions are capable of driving a 0.5A load with excellent line and load regulation.
The feedback voltage is guaranteed to ±2% tolerance for adjustable versions, and the output voltage is guaranteed to ±3% for...
