MIC2810-4GPYML-TR

Overview

The MIC2810-4GPYML-TR is a specialized power management IC from Microchip Technology, integrating a high-efficiency synchronous buck converter with two low-dropout linear regulators. Designed for compact applications, it operates within an input voltage range of 1.65 V to 5.5 V and delivers up to 0.6 A output current. The device features a fixed switching frequency of 2 MHz, enabling the use of small external inductors and capacitors. It is housed in a 16-pin MLF package suitable for surface-mount assembly.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a synchronous step-down DC-DC converter alongside two independent LDOs for comprehensive power distribution.
• Utilizes a high-frequency 2 MHz switching architecture to minimize the footprint of passive components.
• Supports a wide input voltage range compatible with single-cell lithium-ion batteries and standard 5 V rails.

Applications

• Portable consumer electronics requiring multi-rail power sequencing
• Battery-powered devices utilizing single-cell lithium-ion sources
• Embedded systems needing combined switching and linear regulation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'GPYML' against the official Microchip datasheet to confirm pinout compatibility and thermal pad requirements. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact tape-and-reel quantity specified in the manufacturer's documentation before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when board space is constrained due to its integrated triple-regulator topology. The 2 MHz frequency allows for smaller magnetics compared to lower-frequency alternatives. Verify that the required output voltages align with the fixed internal settings or adjustable configurations provided in the technical specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MIC2810 family of digital power management ICs. It consolidates multiple power stages into a single solution, reducing bill-of-materials complexity. The MLF package provides improved thermal performance compared to traditional QFN variants, supporting higher current densities in tight spaces.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the Microchip cross-reference guide for verified substitutes. Alternative parts must match the 16-pin MLF footprint and support the 1.65 V to 5.5 V input range. Verify functional equivalence of the integrated buck and LDO stages before substitution.
