Description

The MCP1612 is a 1A, 1.4 MHz, fully-integrated, current mode-controlled, synchronous buck regulator. The MCP1612 is packaged in the 8-pin MSOP and space-saving, 3x3 DFN packages. The DFN package also provides a lower thermal resistance package option for high-power, high ambient temperature applications. With an input operating range from 2.7V to 5.5V, the MCP1612 is ideal for applications that are powered by one single-cell Li-Ion, 2- to 3-cell NiMH, NiCd or alkaline sources.
