Microchip Technology MCP1612
The MCP1612 is a 1A, 1.4 MHz, fully-integrated, current mode-controlled, synchronous buck regulator. The MCP1612 is packaged in the 8-pin MSOP and space-saving, 3x3 DFN packages. The DFN package also provides a lower thermal resistance package option for high-power, high ambient temperature applications.FEATURES

DESCRIPTION
With an input operating range from 2.7V to 5.5V, the MCP1612 is ideal for applications that are powered by one single-cell Li-Ion, 2- to 3-cell NiMH, NiCd or alkaline sources. The output voltage of the MCP1612 is easily set over the range of 0.8V to 5.0V by using an external resistor divider. The external inductor and output capacitor size are minimized due to an internally-fixed, 1.4 MHz clock being used to set the switching frequency.
