Functional Description
The MIC2176 is an adaptive on-time synchronous buck
controller family built for high-input voltage and low
output voltage applications. It is designed to operate
over a wide input voltage range from, 4.5V to 75V and
the output is adjustable with an external resistive divider.
A digitally modified adaptive on-time control scheme is
employed in to obtain a constant switching frequency
and to simplify the control compensation. Over-current

Theory of Operation
Figure 1 illustrates the block diagram of the MIC2176.
The output voltage is sensed by the MIC2176 feedback
pin FB via the voltage divider R1 and R2, and compared
to a 0.8V reference voltage V
through a low-gain transconductance (g
the feedback voltage decreases and the amplifier output
is below 0.8V, then the error comparator will trigger the
control logic and generate an ON-time period. The ON-
time period length is predetermined by the “Fixed t
Estimator” circuitry:

(100kHz for MIC2176-1, 200kHz for MIC2176-2, and
300kHz for MIC2176-3).
At the end of the ON-time period, the internal high-side
driver turns off the high-side MOSFET and the low-side
driver turns on the low-side MOSFET. The OFF-time
period length depends upon the feedback voltage in
most cases. When the feedback voltage decreases and
the output of the g
period is triggered and the OFF-time period ends. If the
OFF-time period determined by the feedback voltage is
less than the minimum OFF-time t

The adpative ON-time control scheme results in a
constant switching frequency in the MIC2176. The actual
ON-time and resulting switching frequency will vary with
the different rising and falling times of the external
MOSFETs. Also, the minimum t
switching frequency in high V
such as 48V to 1.0V. The minimum t
MIC2176 evaluation board is about 60ns. During load
transients, the switching frequency is changed due to the
varying OFF-time.
To illustrate the control loop operation, we will analyze
both the steady-state and load transient scenarios. For
easy analysis, the gain of the g

error comparator is the same as the feedback voltage.
Figure 2 shows the MIC2176 control loop timing during
steady-state operation. During steady-state, the g
amplifier senses the feedback voltage ripple, which is
proportional to the output voltage ripple plus injected
voltage ripple, to trigger the ON-time period. The ON-
time is predetermined by the t
