MIC2290
2mm × 2mm PWM Boost Regulator with
Internal Schotty Diode
General Description
Features
The MIC2290 is a 1.2MHz , PWM, boost-switching regulator
housed in the small size 2mm × 2mm MLF™-8 package. The
MIC2290 features an internal Schottky diode that reduces
circuit board area and total solution cost. High power density
is achieved with the MIC2290’s internal 34V/0.5A switch,
allowing it to power large loads in a tiny footprint.
The MIC2290 implements a constant frequency 1.2MHz
PWM control scheme. The high frequency operation saves
board space by reducing external component sizes. The
fixed frequency PWM topology also reduces switching noise
and ripple to the input power source.
The MIC2290’s wide 2.5V to 10V input voltage allows direct
operation from 3- to 4-cell NiCad/NiMH/Alkaline batteries, 1and 2-cell Li Ion batteries, as well as fixed 3.3V and 5V
systems.
The MIC2290 is available in a low-profile 2mm × 2mm
8-pin MLF™ leadless package and operates from a junction
temperature range of –40°C to +125°C.

Notes:
1. Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. Electrical specifications do not apply when operating
the device outside of its operating ratings. The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, TJ(max),
the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, θJA, and the ambient temperature, TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive
die temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown.
2. This device is not guaranteed to operate beyond its specified operating rating.
3. IC devices are inherently ESD sensitive. Handling precautions required. Human body model rating: 1.5K in series with 100pF.
4. Specification for packaged product only.

Figure 1. MIC2290 Block Diagram
The gm error amplifier measures the feedback voltage through
the external feedback resistors and amplifies the error between the detected signal and the 1.24V reference voltage.
The output of the gm error amplifier provides the voltage-loop
signal that is fed to the other input of the PWM generator.
When the current-loop signal exceeds the voltage-loop signal, the PWM generator turns off the bipolar output transistor.
The next clock period initiates the next switching cycle,
maintaining the constant frequency current-mode PWM control.
Functional Description
The MIC2290 is a constant frequency, PWM current mode
boost regulator. The block diagram is shown in Figure 1. The
MIC2290 is composed of an oscillator, slope compensation
ramp generator, current amplifier, gm error amplifier, PWM
generator, and a 0.5A bipolar output transistor. The oscillator
generates a 1.2MHz clock. The clock’s two functions are to
trigger the PWM generator that turns on the output transistor,
and to reset the slope compensation ramp generator. The
current amplifier is used to measure the switch current by
amplifying the voltage signal from the internal sense resistor.
The output of the current amplifier is summed with the output
of the slope compensation ramp generator. This summed
current-loop signal is fed to one of the inputs of the PWM
generator.

Applications Information
Component Selection
DC-to-DC PWM Boost Conversion
The MIC2290 is a constant frequency boost converter. It
operates by taking a DC input voltage and regulating a higher
DC output voltage. Figure 2 shows a typical circuit. Boost
regulation is achieved by turning on an internal switch, which
draws current through the inductor (L1). When the switch
turns off, the inductor’s magnetic field collapses, causing the
current to be discharged into the output capacitor through an
internal Schottky diode (D1). Voltage regulation is achieved
through pulse-width modulation (PWM).
Inductor
Inductor selection is a balance between efficiency, stability,
cost, size, and rated current. For most applications, a 10µH
is the recommended inductor value; it is usually a good
balance between these considerations.
Large inductance values reduce the peak-to-peak ripple
current, affecting efficiency. This has an effect of reducing
both the DC losses and the transition losses. There is also a
secondary effect of an inductor’s DC resistance (DCR). The
DCR of an inductor will be higher for more inductance in the
same package size. This is due to the longer windings
required for an increase in inductance. Since the majority of
input current (minus the MIC2290 operating current) is passed
through the inductor, higher DCR inductors will reduce efficiency.
To maintain stability, increasing inductor size will have to be
met with an increase in output capacitance. This is due to the
unavoidable “right half plane zero” effect for the continuous
current boost converter topology. The frequency at which the
right half plane zero occurs can be calculated as follows:

Duty Cycle Considerations
Duty cycle refers to the switch on-to-off time ratio and can be
calculated as follows for a boost regulator:
D = 1−
Frhpz =
2
VOUT × L × IOUT × 2π
The right half plane zero has the undesirable effect of
increasing gain, while decreasing phase. This requires that
the loop gain is rolled off before this has significant effect on
the total loop response. This can be accomplished by either
reducing inductance (increasing RHPZ frequency) or increasing the output capacitor value (decreasing loop gain).
Output Capacitor
Output capacitor selection is also a trade-off between performance, size, and cost. Increasing output capacitance will
lead to an improved transient response, but also an increase
in size and cost. X5R or X7R dielectric ceramic capacitors are
recommended for designs with the MIC2290. Y5V values
may be used, but to offset their tolerance over temperature,
more capacitance is required. The following table shows the
recommended ceramic (X5R) output capacitor value vs.
output voltage.
VIN
VOUT
The duty cycle required for voltage conversion should be less
than the maximum duty cycle of 85%. Also, in light load
conditions where the input voltage is close to the output
voltage, the minimum duty cycle can cause pulse skipping.
This is due to the energy stored in the inductor causing the
output to overshoot slightly over the regulated output voltage.
During the next cycle, the error amplifier detects the output as
being high and skips the following pulse. This effect can be
reduced by increasing the minimum load or by increasing the
inductor value. Increasing the inductor value reduces peak
current, which in turn reduces energy transfer in each cycle.
Overvoltage Protection
For the MLF™ package option, there is an overvoltage
protection function. If the feedback resistors are disconnected from the circuit or the feedback pin is shorted to
ground, the feedback pin will fall to ground potential. This will
cause the MIC2290 to switch at full duty cycle in an attempt
to maintain the feedback voltage. As a result, the output
voltage will climb out of control. This may cause the switch
node voltage to exceed its maximum voltage rating, possibly
damaging the IC and the external components. To ensure the
highest level of protection, the MIC2290 OVP pin will shut the
switch off when an overvoltage condition is detected, saving
itself and other sensitive circuitry downstream.

Table 1. Output Capacitor Selection
Input capacitor
A minimum 1µF ceramic capacitor is recommended for
designing with the MIC2290. Increasing input capacitance
will improve performance and greater noise immunity on the
source. The input capacitor should be as close as possible to
the inductor and the MIC2290, with short traces for good
noise performance.

Feedback Resistors
The MIC2290 utilizes a feedback pin to compare the output
to an internal reference. The output voltage is adjusted by
selecting the appropriate feedback resistor values. The desired output voltage can be calculated as follows:
 R1 
VOUT = VREF × 
+ 1
 R2 
where VREF is equal to 1.24V.
