MIC4574BN is listed in the Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Microchip Technology. Its product description is IC REG BUCK ADJ 500MA 8PDIP. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The MIC4574BN is a BiCMOS step-down (buck) switch-mode voltage regulator manufactured by Microchip Technology. It operates at a fixed switching frequency of 200kHz and provides a guaranteed output current of 0.5A. The device accepts an input voltage range of 4V to 24V and offers an adjustable output voltage range from 1.23V to 20V. It is housed in an 8-pin PDIP package with through-hole mounting. The regulator features internal frequency compensation, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, and thermal shutdown protection.
Verify the specific suffix 'BN' against official Microchip documentation to confirm the exact package type and temperature rating. Ensure compatibility with required PCB footprint dimensions for the designated package style. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated in the latest datasheet revision before finalizing procurement specifications.
Select this component when a simple, low-component-count buck regulator is needed for currents up to 0.5A. The fixed 200kHz frequency allows for smaller inductors compared to lower-frequency alternatives. Consider the 4V to 24V input range suitability for the specific power source. Verify that the thermal performance meets system requirements under maximum load conditions.
The MIC4574 series includes fixed 3.3V and 5V versions alongside the adjustable variant. It serves as a modern replacement for older regulators like the LM2574, offering higher efficiency and reduced external component values. The series is designed for ease of use with minimal external parts required for stable operation.
In shutdown mode, the regulator draws less than 200µA of standby current.
No, frequency compensation is provided internally within the device.
