The MIC2296YML from Micrel is a high-current boost (step-up) DC-DC converter designed for demanding applications. It operates from an input voltage of 2.5V to 10V and can generate output voltages up to 34V, with a switch current rating of 1.2A. The fixed 600kHz switching frequency allows for small external components. Available in 8-VFDFN and 8-MLF® packages, it is ideal for LED flashes, OLED displays, and portable audio.
- High Switch Current (1.2A): Supports high-power loads like LED flashes and audio amplifiers.
- Wide Input Range (2.5V-10V): Compatible with Li-ion, alkaline, and multi-cell battery packs.
- Output up to 34V: Suitable for OLED and high-voltage LED applications.
- 600kHz Fixed Frequency: Balances efficiency and component size.
- Compact Packages (8-VFDFN/MLF): Ideal for space-constrained portable devices.
High-Power LED Flash Drivers
Drive high-current white LEDs for camera flashes in smartphones and digital cameras. The 1.2A switch current supports bright, short-duration flashes.
OLED Display Power
Generate up to 34V for OLED panels in tablets and monitors. The wide input range (2.5V-10V) works with various battery configurations.
Portable Audio Amplifiers
Boost battery voltage to ±5V or higher for headphone amplifiers and speakers. The 600kHz frequency allows compact inductors.
Industrial Sensors and Transmitters
Power 24V loop-powered sensors from a 3.3V or 5V logic supply. The high switch current enables robust operation.
Battery-Powered Medical Devices
Provide high-voltage rails for insulin pumps, infusion pumps, and diagnostic equipment. The small package fits tight enclosures.
Networking Equipment
Boost low-voltage rails for PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications or line drivers in routers and switches.
