High converter efficiency is achieved by integrating the
current-limited, low-resistance, high-speed N-Channel
MOSFET and associated drive circuitry. High
switching frequency minimizes the size of external
filtering components, resulting in a small solution size.
The MCP16301/H devices can supply 600 mA of
continuous current while regulating the output voltage
from 2.0V to 15V. An integrated, high-performance
peak current mode architecture keeps the output
voltage tightly regulated, even during input voltage
steps and output current transient conditions that are
common in power systems.
The EN input is used to turn the device on and off.
While turned off, only a few micro amps of current are
consumed from the input for power shedding and load
distribution applications.
Output voltage is set with an external resistor divider.
The MCP16301/H devices are offered in a
space-saving SOT-23-6 surface mount package.

3.1
Boost Pin (BOOST)
The high side of the floating supply used to turn the
integrated N-Channel MOSFET on and off is
connected to the boost pin.
3.2
Ground Pin (GND)
The ground or return pin is used for circuit ground
connection. The length of the trace from the input cap
return, output cap return and GND pin should be made as
short as possible to minimize the noise on the GND pin.
3.3
Feedback Voltage Pin (VFB)
The VFB pin is used to provide output voltage regulation
by using a resistor divider. The VFB voltage will be
0.800V typical with the output voltage in regulation.
3.4
Enable Pin (EN)
The EN pin is a logic-level input used to enable or
disable device switching and to lower the quiescent
current while disabled. A logic high (> 1.4V) will enable
the regulator output. A logic low (< 0.4V) will ensure
that the regulator is disabled.
 2011-2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
3.5
Power Supply Input Voltage Pin
(VIN)
Connect the input voltage source to VIN. The input
source should be decoupled to GND with a
4.7 µF-20 µF capacitor, depending on the impedance
of the source and output current. The input capacitor
provides AC current for the power switch and a stable
voltage source for the internal device power. This
capacitor should be connected as close as possible to
the VIN and GND pins. For lighter load applications, a
1 µF X7R (or X5R, for limited temperature range, -40 to
+85°C) ceramic capacitor can be used.
3.6
Switch Pin (SW)
The Switch Node pin is connected internally to the
N-Channel switch and externally to the SW node
consisting of the inductor and Schottky diode. The SW
node can rise very fast as a result of the internal switch
turning on. The external Schottky diode should be
connected close to the SW node and GND.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
4.1
Device Overview
The MCP16301/H devices are high-input voltage
step-down regulators, capable of supplying 600 mA to
a regulated output voltage from 2.0V to 15V. Internally,
the trimmed 500 kHz oscillator provides a fixed
frequency, while the peak current mode control
architecture varies the duty cycle for output voltage
regulation. An internal floating driver is used to turn the
high-side integrated N-Channel MOSFET on and off.
The power for this driver is derived from an external
boost capacitor whose energy is supplied from a fixed
voltage ranging from 3.0V to 5.5V, typically the input or
output voltage of the converter. For applications with an
output voltage outside of this range, such as 12V, the
boost capacitor bias can be derived from the output
using a simple Zener diode regulator.
4.1.1
INTERNAL REFERENCE VOLTAGE
(VREF)
An integrated precise 0.8V reference combined with an
external resistor divider sets the desired converter
output voltage. The resistor divider range can vary
without affecting the control system gain. High-value
resistors consume less current, but are more
susceptible to noise.
4.1.2
4.1.4
ENABLE INPUT
Enable input, (EN), is used to enable and disable the
device. If disabled, the MCP16301/H devices consume
a minimal current from the input. Once enabled, the
internal soft start controls the output voltage rate of rise,
preventing high-inrush current and output voltage
overshoot.
4.1.5
SOFT START
The internal reference voltage rate of rise is controlled
during start-up, minimizing the output voltage overshoot and the inrush current.
4.1.6
UNDERVOLTAGE LOCKOUT
An integrated Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) prevents
the converter from starting until the input voltage is high
enough for normal operation. The converter will typically
start at 3.5V and operate down to 3.0V. Hysteresis is
added to prevent starting and stopping during start-up,
as a result of loading the input voltage source.
4.1.7
OVERTEMPERATURE
PROTECTION
Overtemperature protection limits the silicon die
temperature to +150°C by turning the converter off. The
normal switching resumes at +120°C.
INTERNAL COMPENSATION
All control system components necessary for stable
operation over the entire device operating range are
integrated, including the error amplifier and inductor
current slope compensation. To add the proper amount
of slope compensation, the inductor value changes
along with the output voltage (see Table 5-1).

Functional Description
STEP-DOWN OR BUCK
CONVERTER
The MCP16301/H devices are non-synchronous
step-down or buck converters, capable of stepping
input voltages ranging from 4V to 30V (MCP16301) or
36V (MCP16301H) down to 2.0V to 15V for VIN > VOUT.
The integrated high-side switch is used to chop or
modulate the input voltage using a controlled duty cycle
for output voltage regulation. High efficiency is
achieved by using a low-resistance switch, low forward
drop diode, low equivalent series resistance (ESR), an
inductor and a capacitor. When the switch is turned on,
a DC voltage is applied to the inductor (VIN – VOUT),
resulting in a positive linear ramp of inductor current.
When the switch turns off, the applied inductor voltage
is equal to -VOUT, resulting in a negative linear ramp of
inductor current (ignoring the forward drop of the
Schottky diode).
For steady-state, continuous inductor current
operation, the positive inductor current ramp must
equal the negative current ramp in magnitude. While
operating in steady state, the switch duty cycle must be
equal to the relationship of VOUT/VIN for constant
output voltage regulation, under the condition that the
inductor current is continuous or never reaches zero.
For discontinuous inductor current operation, the
steady-state duty cycle will be less than VOUT/VIN to
maintain voltage regulation. The average of the
DS20005004D-page 12
chopped input voltage or SW node voltage is equal to
the output voltage, while the average of the inductor
current is equal to the output current.

4.2.2
PEAK CURRENT MODE CONTROL
The MCP16301/H devices integrate a Peak Current
Mode Control architecture, resulting in superior AC
regulation while minimizing the number of voltage loop
compensation components, and their size, for
integration. Peak Current Mode Control takes a small
portion of the inductor current, replicates it, and
compares this replicated current sense signal to the
output of the integrated error voltage. In practice, the
inductor current and the internal switch current are
equal during the switch-on time. By adding this peak
current sense to the system control, the step-down
power train system is reduced from a 2nd order to a 1st
order. This reduces the system complexity and
increases its dynamic performance.
For Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) duty cycles that
exceed 50%, the control system can become bimodal
where a wide pulse followed by a short pulse repeats
instead of the desired fixed pulse width. To prevent this
mode of operation, an internal compensating ramp is
summed into the current shown in Figure 4-1.
4.2.3
PULSE-WIDTH MODULATION
(PWM)
The internal oscillator periodically starts the switching
period, which, for MCP16301, occurs every 2 µs or
500 kHz. With the integrated switch turned on, the
inductor current ramps up until the sum of the current
sense and slope compensation ramp exceeds the
integrated error amplifier output. The error amplifier
output slews up or down to increase or decrease the
inductor peak current feeding into the output LC filter. If
the regulated output voltage is lower than its target, the
inverting error amplifier output rises. This results in an
increase in the inductor current to correct the errors in
the output voltage.
The fixed-frequency duty cycle is terminated when the
sensed inductor peak current, summed with the
internal slope compensation, exceeds the output
voltage of the error amplifier. The PWM latch is reset by
turning off the internal switch and preventing it from
turning on until the beginning of the next cycle. An
overtemperature signal, or boost cap undervoltage,
can also reset the PWM latch to asynchronously
terminate the cycle.
4.2.4
HIGH-SIDE DRIVE
The MCP16301/H devices feature an integrated
high-side N-Channel MOSFET for high-efficiency
step-down power conversion. An N-Channel MOSFET
is used for its low resistance and size (instead of a
P-Channel MOSFET). The N-Channel MOSFET gate
must be driven above its source to fully turn on the
transistor. A gate-drive voltage above the input is
necessary to turn on the high-side N-Channel. The
high-side drive voltage should be between 3.0V and
5.5V. The N-Channel source is connected to the
inductor and Schottky diode, or switch node.
When the switch is off, the inductor current flows
through the Schottky diode, providing a path to
recharge the boost cap from the boost voltage source:
typically the output voltage for 3.0V to 5.0V output
applications. A boost-blocking diode is used to prevent
current flow from the boost cap back into the output
during the internal switch-on time. Prior to start-up, the
boost cap has no stored charge to drive the switch. An
internal regulator is used to precharge the boost cap.
Once precharged, the switch is turned on and the
inductor current flows. When the switch turns off, the
inductor current free-wheels through the Schottky
diode, providing a path to recharge the boost cap.
Worst-case conditions for recharge occur when the
switch turns on for a very short duty cycle at light load,
limiting the inductor current ramp. In this case, there is
a small amount of time for the boost capacitor to
recharge. For high input voltages there is enough precharge current to replace the boost cap charge. For
input voltages above 5.5V typical, the MCP16301/H
devices will regulate the output voltage with no load.
After starting, the MCP16301/H devices will regulate
the output voltage until the input voltage decreases
below 4V. See Figure 2-17 for device range of operation over input voltage, output voltage and load.
4.2.5
ALTERNATIVE BOOST BIAS
For 3.0V to 5.0V output voltage applications, the boost
supply is typically the output voltage. For applications
with 3.0V < VOUT < 5.0V, an alternative boost supply
can be used.
Alternative boost supplies can be from the input, input
derived, output derived or an auxiliary system voltage.
For low voltage output applications with unregulated
input voltage, a shunt regulator derived from the input
can be used to derive the boost supply. For
applications with high output voltage or regulated high
input voltage, a series regulator can be used to derive
the boost supply.

General Design Equations
The step-down converter duty cycle can be estimated
using Equation 5-2 while operating in Continuous
Inductor Current mode. This equation also counts the
forward drop of the freewheeling diode and internal
N-Channel MOSFET switch voltage drop. As the load
current increases, the switch voltage drop and diode
voltage drop increase, requiring a larger PWM duty
cycle to maintain the output voltage regulation. Switch
voltage drop is estimated by multiplying the switch
current times the switch resistance or RDSON.

The MCP16301/H devices feature an integrated slope
compensation to prevent the bimodal operation of the
PWM duty cycle. Internally, half of the inductor current
down slope is summed with the internal current sense
signal. For the proper amount of slope compensation,
it is recommended to keep the inductor down-slope

Input Capacitor Selection
5.6
The step-down converter input capacitor must filter the
high input ripple current as a result of pulsing or
chopping the input voltage. The input voltage pin of the
MCP16301/H devices is used to supply voltage for the
power train and as a source for internal bias. A low
equivalent series resistance (ESR), preferably a
ceramic capacitor, is recommended. The necessary
capacitance is dependent upon the maximum load
current and source impedance. Three capacitor
parameters to keep in mind are the voltage rating,
equivalent series resistance and the temperature
rating. For wide temperature range applications, a
multi-layer X7R dielectric is mandatory, while for
applications with limited temperature range, a
multi-layer X5R dielectric is acceptable. Typically, input
capacitance between 4.7 µF and 10 µF is sufficient for
most applications. For applications with 100 mA to
200 mA load, a 1 µF X7R capacitor can be used,
depending on the input source and its impedance.
The input capacitor voltage rating should be a minimum
of VIN plus margin. Table 5-2 contains the
recommended range for the input capacitor value.
5.5
Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitor helps in providing a stable output
voltage during sudden load transients, and reduces the
output voltage ripple. As with the input capacitor, X5R
and X7R ceramic capacitors are well suited for this
application.
The MCP16301/H devices are internally compensated,
so the output capacitance range is limited. See
Table 5-2 for the recommended output capacitor range.
The amount and type of output capacitance and
equivalent series resistance will have a significant
effect on the output ripple voltage and system stability.
The range of the output capacitance is limited due to
the integrated compensation of the MCP16301/H
devices.
Inductor Selection
The MCP16301/H devices are designed to be used
with small surface mount inductors. Several
specifications should be considered prior to selecting
an inductor. To optimize system performance, the
inductance value is determined by the output voltage
(Table 5-1) so the inductor ripple current is somewhat
constant over the output voltage range.

Inductor ripple current = 319 mA

An inductor saturation rating minimum of 760 mA is
recommended. Low ESR inductors result in higher
system efficiency. A trade-off between size, cost and
efficiency is made to achieve the desired results.
The output voltage capacitor voltage rating should be a
minimum of VOUT, plus margin.

Freewheeling Diode
The freewheeling diode creates a path for inductor
current flow after the internal switch is turned off. The
average diode current is dependent upon output load
current at duty cycle (D). The efficiency of the converter
is a function of the forward drop and speed of the
freewheeling diode. A low forward drop Schottky diode
is recommended. The current rating and voltage rating
of the diode is application dependent. The diode
voltage rating should be a minimum of VIN, plus margin.
For example, a diode rating of 40V should be used for
an application with a maximum input of 30V. The
average diode current can be calculated using
Equation 5-6.

Boost Diode
The boost diode is used to provide a charging path from
the low-voltage gate drive source, while the switch
node is low. The boost diode blocks the high voltage of
the switch node from feeding back into the output
voltage when the switch is turned on, forcing the switch
node high.
A standard 1N4148 ultra-fast diode is recommended
for its recovery speed, high voltage blocking capability,
availability and cost. The voltage rating required for the
boost diode is VIN.
For low boost voltage applications, a small Schottky
diode with the appropriately rated voltage can be used
to lower the forward drop, increasing the boost supply
for gate drive.

Boost Capacitor
The boost capacitor is used to supply current for the
internal high-side drive circuitry that is above the input
voltage. The boost capacitor must store enough energy
to completely drive the high-side switch on and off. A
0.1 µF X5R or X7R capacitor is recommended for all
applications. The boost capacitor maximum voltage is
5.5V, so a 6.3V or 10V rated capacitor is
recommended. In case of a noise-sensitive application,
an additional resistor in series with the boost capacitor,
that will reduce the high-frequency noise associated
with switching power supplies, can be added. A typical
value for the resistor is 82.

applying the package thermal resistance (JA), the
junction temperature is estimated. The maximum
continuous junction temperature rating for the
MCP16301/H devices is +125°C.
To quickly estimate the internal power dissipation for
the switching step-down regulator, an empirical
calculation using measured efficiency can be used.
Given the measured efficiency, the internal power
dissipation is estimated by Equation 5-7. This power
dissipation includes all internal and external
component losses. For a quick internal estimate,
subtract the estimated Schottky diode loss and inductor
ESR loss from the PDIS calculation in Equation 5-7.

PCB Layout Information
Good printed circuit board layout techniques are
important to any switching circuitry, and switching
power supplies are no different. When wiring the
switching high-current paths, short and wide traces
should be used. Therefore, it is important that the input
and output capacitors be placed as close as possible to
the MCP16301/H devices to minimize the loop area.
The feedback resistors and feedback signal should be
routed away from the switching node and the switching
current loop. When possible, ground planes and traces
should be used to help shield the feedback signal and
minimize noise and magnetic interference.
A good MCP16301/H layout starts with CIN placement.
CIN supplies current to the input of the circuit when the
switch is turned on. In addition to supplying
high-frequency switch current, CIN also provides a
stable voltage source for the internal MCP16301/H
circuitry. Unstable PWM operation can result if there
are excessive transients or ringing on the VIN pin of the
MCP16301/H devices. In Figure 5-1, CIN is placed
close to pin 5. A ground plane on the bottom of the
board provides a low resistive and inductive path for
the return current. The next priority in placement is the
freewheeling current loop formed by D1, COUT and L,
while strategically placing COUT return close to CIN
return. Next, CB and DB should be placed between the
boost pin and the switch node pin SW. This leaves
space close to the VFB pin of the MCP16301/H devices
to place RTOP and RBOT. RTOP and RBOT are routed
away from the Switch node so noise is not coupled into
the high-impedance VFB input.

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.
Information contained in this publication regarding device
applications and the like is provided only for your convenience
and may be superseded by updates. It is your responsibility to
ensure that your application meets with your specifications.
