MIC24085
18V, 3A, 1MHz, High-Performance,
Integrated FET Buck Regulator
in Tiny 3mm × 3mm QFN
General Description
Micrel’s MIC24085 is a constant-frequency, current-mode
PWM buck regulator with integrated switchers. The
MIC24085 is targeted for cost-sensitive and high-
performance applications.
The MIC24085 operates over a supply range of 4.5V to
18V at a fixed 1MHz switching frequency and can be used
to provide up to 3A of output current. The output voltage is
adjustable down to 0.9V.
The MIC24085 provides the features of low standby
current at 10µA, device enable, input undervoltage lockout,
and output voltage monitoring. The part also provides fault
protections of overcurrent and overtemperature.
The MIC24085 is available in a 16-pin 3mm × 3mm QFN
package with a junction operating range from –40°C to
+125°C.
Datasheets and support documentation are available on
Micrel’s web site at:

Pin Function
Switch Node (Output): Power stage output. Connect an inductor to this pin.
Supply Voltage (for control circuit and power stage): A ceramic input capacitor between VCC and
the power ground (PGND) is required.
Analog Ground: GND is the ground path of the control circuitry.
Feedback (Input): Input to the error amplifier of the PWM controller. The FB pin is regulated to
0.9V. A resistor divider connecting the feedback to the output is used to adjust the desired output
voltage.
No connection.
Power Good (Output): Open drain output, which needs a pull-up. The PG pin turns logic high when
the converter output voltage is regulated in the range from 93% to 103% of the setting.
Enable (Input): An accurate Enable with hysteresis is provided. High = enable, Low = shutdown.
Enable has an internal pull-up to ensure a stable state if this pin is not connected.
Boost (Output): Bootstrapped voltage to the high-side N-channel MOSFET. A boost capacitor of
0.1μF is connected between the BST pin and the SW pin.
Power Ground: PGND is the ground path for the power stage.
Exposed Pad. It must be connected to PGND on the PCB.
