MIC4690YM-TR IC REG BUCK ADJUSTABLE 1A 8SOIC Microchip Technology

 

General Description

The MIC4690 SuperSwitcher™ is an easy-to-use, 500kHz step-down PWM voltage regulator. The MIC4690 achieves over 1A of continuous output current over a wide input voltage range in an 8-lead SO (small outline) package.
The high switching frequency of the MIC4690 allows the smallest surface-mount inductors and capacitors to be used. Internal compensation ensures fast transient response and a minimum amount of external components.
