Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
•
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.

MCP16251 AND MCP1640B
SYNCHRONOUS BOOST CONVERTERS
EVALUATION BOARD USER’S GUIDE
Chapter 1. Product Overview
1.1
INTRODUCTION
The MCP16251 and MCP1640B devices are compact, high-efficiency, fixed frequency,
step-up DC-DC converters. These products provide an easy-to-use power supply
solution, with a minimum number of external components for applications powered by
one-cell, two-cell, or three-cell alkaline, NiCd, NiMH, one-cell Li-Ion or Li-Polymer
batteries.
The MCP16251 automatically selects the best operating mode for efficiency,
pulse-width modulation (PWM) or pulse frequency (PFM). The device has a very low
quiescent current 4 µA (not switching, measured at output), a wide input voltage range
(0.35 to 5.5V) and a low start-up voltage (0.82V) at 1 mA load current.
The MCP1640B is a PWM-only controller, with a typical of 19 µA quiescent current (not
switching, measured at output), a wide input voltage range (0.35V to 5.5V) and a
start-up voltage of 0.65V at 1 mA load current.
The major differences between the two device families (MCP16251/2 and
MCP1640/B/C/D) are the very low quiescent current for the MCP16251/2, and the
voltage reference (1.21V for the MCP1640/B/C/D, 1.23V for the MCP16251/2,
respectively).
The available package types for these devices are: SOT-23-6 and 2x3 mm (T)DFN-8.
The scope of this evaluation board is to demonstrate the low quiescent current for the
PWM/PFM MCP16251 device, and the low-noise output for the MCP1640B PWM-only
option.

Boost Converters Evaluation Board, and covers the following topics:

WHAT IS THE MCP16251 AND MCP1640B SYNCHRONOUS BOOST
CONVERTERS EVALUATION BOARD?
The MCP16251 and MCP1640B Synchronous Boost Converters Evaluation Board is
used to evaluate and demonstrate Microchip Technology’s MCP16251 and MCP1640B
products. This board demonstrates the MCP16251/MCP1640B in two boost-converter
applications with multiple output voltages. It can be used to evaluate both package
options (SOT-23-6 and 2x3 mm 8-(T)DFN). The MCP16251 and MCP1640B
Synchronous Boost Converters Evaluation Board was developed to help engineers
reduce the product design cycle time.
Three common output voltages can be selected: 2.0V, 3.3V and 5.0V. The output
voltage can be changed with a mini-dip switch that changes the external resistor
divider.
A switch connected to the EN pin is used to enable and disable the converters. When
enabled, the MCP16251/MCP1640B will regulate the output voltage; when disabled,
the MCP16251/MCP1640B disconnects the path from input to output for
“true-disconnect”.

2.1
INTRODUCTION
The MCP1640B is capable of regulating the output voltage over a wide 2.0V to 5.5V
range, and typically can deliver over 100 mA of load current at 3.3V output when
supplied from a single 1.2V cell. The input voltage range is 0.35V to 5.5V with a low
0.65V start-up voltage. The regulated output voltage (VOUT) should be greater than or
equal to the input voltage (VIN). In particular, the MCP1640B is PWM-only with True
Disconnect shutdown option.
The MCP16251 can regulate the output voltage over a 1.8V to 5.5V range, and can
deliver a minimum of 75 mA of load current at 3.3V VOUT when supplied from a one
alkaline battery. Compared to the MCP1640B, the MCP16251 has both pulse-width
modulation (PWM) and pulse frequency modulation (PFM) operating modes, and
automatically selects the best operating mode for efficiency.

offers both package types in two boost-converter applications for 2.0V, 3.3V and 5.0V
output voltage options that can be selected using a mini-dip switch. The enable input
is controlled in both boost converter applications using a mini-dip switch.

2.3
GETTING STARTED
The MCP16251 and MCP1640B Synchronous Boost Converters Evaluation Board is
fully assembled and tested to evaluate and demonstrate the MCP16251 and the
MCP1640B products. This board requires the use of external lab supplies and load.
2.3.1
Power Input and Output Connection
2.3.1.1
POWERING THE MCP16251 AND MCP1640B SYNCHRONOUS BOOST
CONVERTERS EVALUATION BOARD
Soldered test points are available for input voltage connections. The maximum input
voltage should not exceed 6.0V. The output voltage will not remain in regulation for
input voltages that are greater than or equal to the output voltage.
The MCP16251 and MCP1640B Synchronous Boost Converters Evaluation Board has
two independent circuit applications, one using the MCP16251 SOT-23-6 package,
while the other uses the MCP1640B DFN-8 package. The SOT-23-6 package has two
output voltage settings (2.0V and 3.3V) selectable by an on-board mini-dip switch. The
DFN-8 package has two output voltage settings (3.3V and 5.0V), also selectable by an
on-board mini-dip switch.
Soldered test points are available to connect a load. The switch peak current limit will
provide a safe maximum current value. The maximum output current for the converters
will vary with input and output voltages; refer to the MCP16251/2 and MCP1640/B/C/D
data sheets for more information on the maximum output current.

Installation and Operation
2.3.1.2
BOARD POWER-UP PROCEDURE
1. Connect system load to VOUT and GND terminals; maximum load varies with
input and output voltage (see the MCP16251/2 and MCP1640/B/C/D data sheets
for more information on the maximum load). Connect the (+) side of the load to
VOUT and the negative (-) load to ground (GND).
2. Set the desired output voltage using the VOUT SEL mini-dip switch.
3. Turn the device ON/OFF using the EN mini-dip switch.
4. When EN is set ON or high, the converter is enabled and VOUT can be measured
on the VOUT and GND terminals. When EN is low, the converter is disabled and
VOUT is floating, and disconnected from the input.
Capacitors C3, C4, C6 and C7 are not populated. The component pads are provided for
experimental use.

2.3.1.4
ADJUSTABLE VOUT SETTING
The resistor divider RT and RB are used to set the converter output voltage. By setting
the VOUT SEL switch in ON or OFF position, the output voltage can be calculated using
the following equation:
EQUATION 2-1:
V OUT
RT 1 = RB 1   ------------- – 1
V FB
or
V OUT
RT 4 = RB 2   ------------- – 1

Where: VFB = 1.21V for MCP1640B
VFB = 1.23V for MCP16251
Note:
DS50002110B-page 16
If the feedback loop is recalculated, the VOUT SEL switch will not be used,
as it will add a resistor in parallel with the calculated component.
