Description

The MCP1661 device is a compact, high-efficiency,fixed-frequency, non-synchronous step-up DC-DC converter which integrates a 36V, 800 m NMOS switch. It provides a space-efficient high-voltage step-up power supply solution for applications powered by either two-cell or three-cell alkaline, Ultimate Lithium,NiCd, NiMH, one-cell Li-Ion or Li-Polymer batteries.

The integrated switch is protected by the 1.3A cycle-by-cycle inductor peak current limit operation. There is an output overvoltage protection which turns off switching in case the feedback resistors are accidentally disconnected or the feedback pin is short-circuited to GND.

Low-voltage technology allows the regulator to start-up without high inrush current or output voltage overshoot from a low-voltage input. The device features a UVLO which avoids start-up and operation with low inputs or discharged batteries for two cell-powered applications.

For standby applications (EN = GND), the device stops switching, enters Sleep mode and consumes 200 nA (typical) of input current.

MCP1661 is easy to use and allows creating classic boost, SEPIC or flyback DC-DC converters within a small Printed Circuit Board (PCB) area. Allcompensation and protection circuitry is integrated to minimize the number of external components. Ceramic input and output capacitors are used.
