What are the key features of MCP1602-ADJI/MS?
- 20 MHz switching frequency reduces external inductor and capacitor size, enabling sub-millimeter-height power stages for thin portable devices
- Dual PFM/PWM operation automatically switches to pulse frequency modulation at light loads, extending battery life in IoT and wearable applications
- Adjustable output voltage from 0.6 V to 5.5 V with voltage-mode control and 2.7 V to 5.5 V input range, covering 3.3 V and 5 V battery rails
What is MCP1602-ADJI/MS used for?
The MCP1602-ADJI/MS is designed for battery-powered portable electronics including wearables, IoT sensors, and handheld devices that require a compact, high-frequency synchronous buck converter with adaptive power control. Its 20 MHz switching frequency allows use of tiny inductors and ceramic capacitors, minimizing total solution size for space-constrained designs. The automatic PFM mode at light load currents improves efficiency at standby and sleep states where quiescent current savings are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the 20 MHz switching frequency of the MCP1602-ADJI/MS affect passive component selection?
At 20 MHz, the MCP1602-ADJI/MS allows use of inductors as small as 470 nH and ceramic output capacitors of 1 µF to 4.7 µF, significantly reducing the total power stage footprint compared to conventional 1 MHz to 3 MHz switchers. This makes the MCP1602 well-suited for wearables and IoT modules where PCB area is limited to just a few square millimeters for the entire power section.
When does the MCP1602-ADJI/MS switch from PWM to PFM mode, and how much does it improve light-load efficiency?
The MCP1602-ADJI/MS automatically transitions from PWM to pulse frequency modulation when the load current drops below approximately 10 mA to 20 mA (device-threshold dependent). In PFM mode, switching losses are reduced by skipping unnecessary pulses, improving light-load efficiency from roughly 70% in fixed-PWM operation to over 85% at loads below 5 mA, extending battery runtime in IoT nodes that spend most of their time in sleep state.
What output voltage range can be configured on the MCP1602-ADJI/MS and what resistor values are needed for a 1.8 V output?
The MCP1602-ADJI/MS supports an adjustable output from 0.6 V to 5.5 V set by an external resistor divider from VOUT to the feedback pin. To set a 1.8 V output using the 0.6 V internal reference, use a feedback top resistor of approximately 200 kΩ and a bottom resistor of 100 kΩ, yielding VOUT = 0.6 V × (1 + 200k/100k) = 1.8 V. The 500 mA output current remains available across the full adjustment range.
