Key Features

  • Ultra-low quiescent current boost converter with input range 0.82 V to 5.25 V
  • Programmable low-battery threshold with open-drain low-battery indicator output
  • Power-good (PG) output for system sequencing and supervisor circuits
  • Automatic input-to-output bypass operation prevents overvoltage at high input
  • Current-mode PWM control in compact 10-pin MSOP package for space-limited designs

Applications

The MCP16418-I/UN is well suited for single-cell alkaline, NiMH, or Li-ion battery-powered portable devices that need a regulated boost output. Its programmable low-battery flag and power-good signal make it ideal for IoT sensor nodes, wearables, and handheld instruments requiring reliable power-state signaling. The automatic bypass feature simplifies designs that must operate across a wide input-voltage range without external protection circuitry.

Frequently Asked Questions

What input voltage range does the MCP16418-I/UN support for battery-powered applications?

The MCP16418-I/UN accepts input voltages from 0.82 V to 5.25 V, covering single-cell alkaline batteries at end-of-life down to 0.9 V as well as fully-charged Li-ion cells at 4.2 V. This broad 4.43 V input span reduces the need for external pre-regulation in battery-powered IoT and wearable designs.

How does the automatic input-to-output bypass mode protect downstream circuitry in the MCP16418-I/UN?

When the input voltage rises above the programmed output regulation point, the MCP16418-I/UN activates its automatic bypass path, directly connecting input to output through an internal switch. This prevents output overvoltage stress on load devices and eliminates the need for a separate bypass MOSFET in designs with wide-range supply inputs.

Which package does the MCP16418-I/UN use, and what does that mean for board area?

The device ships in a 10-pin MSOP package with a footprint of approximately 3 mm x 3 mm, offering a very compact solution for boost conversion. Its small size makes it practical for wearable PCBs and densely populated IoT modules where board space is at a premium.

Can the MCP16418-I/UN signal a low-battery condition to a host microcontroller?

Yes. The MCP16418-I/UN provides a programmable low-battery detection comparator with an open-drain output that asserts when the input voltage falls below a user-set threshold, typically set with two external resistors. This flag can wake a host MCU to save state or alert the user before power is lost.
