The MIC4680 is available in 3.3V and 5V fixed output
versions or adjustable output down to 1.25V.
The MIC4680 has an input voltage range of 4V to 34V,
with excellent line, load, and transient response. The
regulator performs cycle-by-cycle current limiting and
thermal shutdown for protection under fault conditions.
In shutdown mode, the regulator draws less than 2 μA
of standby current.
The MIC4680 SuperSwitcher regulator requires a
minimum number of external components and can
operate using a standard series of inductors and
capacitors. Frequency compensation is provided
internally for fast transient response and ease of use.

Note 1:
The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of ambient temperature, the maximum allowable
junction temperature and the thermal resistance from junction to air (i.e., TA, TJ, JA). Exceeding the
maximum allowable power dissipation will cause the device operating junction temperature to exceed the
maximum rating. Sustained junction temperatures above that maximum can impact device reliability.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The MIC4680 is a variable duty cycle switch-mode
regulator with an internal power switch. Refer to the
Functional Block Diagrams.
4.1
Supply Voltage
The MIC4680 operates from a +4V to +34V
unregulated input. Highest efficiency operation is from
a supply voltage around +15V. See Figure 2-10
through Figure 2-12.
4.2
Enable/Shutdown
The shutdown (SHDN) input is TTL compatible.
Ground the input if unused. A logic low enables the
regulator. A logic high shuts down the internal regulator
which reduces the current to typically 1.5 μA when
VSHDN = VIN = 12V and 30 μA when VSHDN = 5V. See
Figure 1-2.
4.3
Feedback
Fixed-voltage versions of the regulator have an internal
resistive divider from the feedback (FB) pin. Connect
FB directly to the output voltage.
Adjustable versions require an external resistive
voltage divider from the output voltage to ground,
center tapped to the FB pin. See Table 5-1 for
recommended resistor values.
4.4
4.5
Output Switching
When the internal switch is on, an increasing current
flows from the supply VIN, through external storage
inductor L1, to output capacitor COUT and the load.
Energy is stored in the inductor as the current
increases with time.
When the internal switch is turned off, the collapse of
the magnetic field in L1 forces current to flow through
fast recovery diode D1, charging COUT.
4.6
Output Capacitor
External output capacitor COUT provides stabilization
and reduces ripple. See the Bode Plots for additional
information.
4.7
Return Paths
During the ON portion of the cycle, the output capacitor
and load currents return to the supply ground. During
the OFF portion of the cycle, current is being supplied
to the output capacitor and load by storage inductor L1,
which means that D1 is part of the high-current return
path.
Duty Cycle Control
A fixed-gain error amplifier compares the feedback
signal with a 1.23V bandgap voltage reference. The
resulting error amplifier output voltage is compared to a
200 kHz sawtooth waveform to produce a
voltage-controlled variable duty cycle output.
A higher feedback voltage increases the error amplifier
output voltage. A higher error amplifier voltage
(comparator inverting input) causes the comparator to
detect only the peaks of the sawtooth, reducing the
duty cycle of the comparator output. A lower feedback
voltage increases the duty cycle. The MIC4680 uses a
voltage mode control architecture.

Thermal Considerations
The MIC4680 SuperSwitcher features the power
SOIC-8. This package has a standard 8-pin
small-outline package profile but with much higher
power dissipation than a standard SOIC-8. The
MIC4680 SuperSwitcher is the first DC-to-DC
converter to take full advantage of this package.
The reason that the power SOIC-8 has higher power
dissipation (lower thermal resistance) is that pins 5
though 8 and the die-attach paddle are a single piece
of metal. The die is attached to the paddle with
thermally conductive adhesive. This provides a low
thermal resistance path from the junction of the die to
the ground pins. This design significantly improves
package power dissipation by allowing excellent heat
transfer through the ground leads to the printed circuit
board.
One of the limitation of the maximum output current on
any MIC4680 design is the junction-to-ambient thermal
resistance (θJA) of the design (package and ground
plane).Examining θJA in more detail:
EQUATION 5-3:
JA = JC + CA
Where:
θJC = Junction-to-case thermal resistance.
θCA = Case-to-ambient thermal resistance.

CURRENT METHOD
Using Figure 5-2, for a given input voltage range,
determine the minimum ground-plane heat-sink area
required for the application’s maximum output current.
Figure 5-2 assumes a constant die temperature of
75°C above ambient.
1.5
θJA is ideally 63°C/W but will vary depending on the
size of the ground plane to which the power SOIC-8 is
attached.
5.3
Determining Ground-Plane
Heat-Sink Area
There are two methods of determining the minimum
ground plane area required by the MIC4680.
5.3.1
QUICK METHOD
OUTPUT CURRENT (I)
θCA is dependent on layout and is primarily governed
by the connection of pins 5 though 8 to the ground
plane. The purpose of the ground plane is to function
as a heat sink.

Plane Area.
Output Current vs. Ground
When designing with the MIC4680, it is a good practice
to connect pins 5 through 8 to the largest ground plane
that is practical for the specific design.
Make sure that MIC4680 pins 5 though 8 are
connected to a ground plane with a minimum area of
6cm2. This ground plane should be as close to the
MIC4680 as possible. The area maybe distributed in
any shape around the package or on any PCB layer as
long as there is good thermal contact to pins 5 though
8. This ground plane area is more than sufficient for
most designs.

Checking the Maximum Junction
Temperature
For this example, with an output power (POUT) of 5W,
(5V output at 1A maximum with VIN = 12V) and 65°C
maximum ambient temperature, what is the maximum
junction temperature?
Referring to Figure 2-11, read the efficiency (η) for 1A
output current at VIN = 12V or perform you own
measurement.
η = 79%
5.5
Increasing the Maximum Output
Current
The maximum output current at high input voltages can
be increased for a given board layout. The additional
three components shown in Figure 5-3 will reduce the
overall loss in the MIC4680 by about 20% at high VIN
and high IOUT.
Even higher output current can be achieved by using
the MIC4680 to switch an external FET. See Figure 5-7
for a 5A supply with current limiting.
The efficiency is used to determine how much of the
output power (POUT) is dissipated in the regulator
circuit (PD).

Where:
TJ = Junction temperature.
PD(IC) = The MIC4680 power dissipation.
θJC = Junction-to-case thermal resistance (approx.
20°C/W for the MIC4680).
TC = Pin temperature measurement taken at the
entry point of pin 6 or 7 into the plastic package at the
ambient temperature at which TC is measured.
TA = Ambient temperature at which TC is measured.
TA(MAX) = Maximum ambient operating temperature
for the specific design.
Calculating the maximum junction temperature given a
maximum ambient temperature of 65°C:
Layout is very important when designing any switching
regulator. Rapidly changing switching currents through
the printed circuit board traces and stray inductance
can generate voltage transients which can cause
problems.
To minimize stray inductance and ground loops, keep
trace lengths, indicated by the heavy lines in
Figure 5-4, as short as possible. For example, keep D1
close to Pin 3 and Pins 5 through 8, keep L1 away from
sensitive node FB, and keep CIN close to Pin 2 and
Pins 5 though 8. See Thermal Considerations for
ground plane layout.
The feedback pin should be kept as far way from the
switching elements (usually L1 and D1) as possible.

operating junction temperature of 125°C as listed in the
Operating Ratings ‡. Typical thermal shutdown is
160°C and is listed in the Electrical Characteristics
table.
