MIC28304 Evaluation Board
70V 3A Power Module
Hyper Speed Control™ Family
General Descr i ption
The Micrel MIC28304 is synchronous step-down regulator
module, featuring a unique adaptive ON-time control
architecture. The module incorporates a DC-to-DC
controller, power MOSFETs, bootstrap diode, bootstrap
capacitor, and an inductor in a single package. The
MIC28304 operates over an input supply range of 4.5V to
70V and can be used to supply up to 3A of output current.
The output voltage is adjustable down to 0.8V with a
guaranteed accuracy of ±1%. The device operates with a
programmable switching frequency from 200kHz to
600kHz.
The MIC28304-1 has the HyperLight Load® architecture,
so it can operate in pulse skipping mode at light load.
However, it operates in fixed frequency CCM mode from
medium load to heavy load. The MIC28304-2 has Hyper
Speed Control™ architecture, which operates in fixed
frequency CCM mode under all load conditions.
The basic parameter s of t he evaluation board are:
• Input: 7V to 70V
• Output: 0.8V to 5V at 3A (1)
• 600kHz Switching Fr equency (Adjustable 200kHz
to 600kHz)
Note:
1. Refer to temperature curves shown in the MIC28304 0.8V to 5V/3A
Evaluation Board Typical Characteristics section.
Datasheets and support documentation are available on
Micrel’s web site at: www.micrel.com.
Requirements
The MIC28304-1 and MIC28304-2 evaluation board
requires only a single power supply with at least 10A
current capability. No external linear regulator is required
to power the internal biasing of the IC because the
MIC28304 has internal PVDD LDO. In the applications
with VIN < +5.5V, PVDD should be tied to VIN to bypass
the internal linear regulator. The output load can either be
a passive or an active load.
Precautions
The MIC28304 evaluation board does not have reverse
polarity protection. Applying a negative voltage to the VIN
and GND terminals may damage the device. The
maximum VIN of the board is rated at 70V. Exceeding 70V
on the VIN could damage the device.
Getting Started
1. VIN Supply
Connect a supply to the VIN and GND terminals,
paying careful attention to the polarity and the supply
range (7V < VIN < 70V). Monitor IIN with a current
meter and monitor input voltage at VIN and GND
terminals with a voltmeter. Do not apply power until
step 4.
2. Connect Load and Monitor Outpu t
Connect a load to the VOUT and GND terminals. The
load can be either a passive (resistive) or an active (as
in an electronic load) type. A current meter may be
placed between the VOUT terminal and load to
monitor the output current. Ensure the output voltage
is monitored at t he VOUT terminal.
3. Enable Input
The EN pin has an on board 100kΩ pull-up resistor
(R16) to VIN, which allows the output to be turned on
when PVDD exceeds its UVLO threshold. An EN
connector is provided on the evaluation board for
users to easily access the enable feature. Applying an
external logic signal on the EN pin to pull it low or
using a jumper to short the EN pin to GND will shut off
the output of the MIC28304 evaluation board.
4. Turn Po wer
Turn on the VIN supply and verify that the output
voltage is regulat ed to 5V.

The output voltage on the MIC28304 evaluation board,
which is preset to 5.0V, is determined by the feedback

Eq. 1
where VREF = 0.8V, and RBOTTOM is one o f R10, or R11,
which corresponds to 3.3V, 5V. Leav i ng the RBOTTOM open

Note that the output voltage should not be set to exceed

SW Node
Test point J1 (VSW) is placed for monitoring the switching
waveform, which is one of the most critical waveforms for
the converter.
Current Limit
The MIC28304 uses the RDS(ON) of the low-side MOSFET
and external resistor connected from the ILIM pin to the
SW node to decide the cu rrent limit.

Figure 1. MIC28304 Current Limiting Circuit
In each switching cycle of the MIC28304, the inductor
current is sensed by monitoring the low-side MOSFET in
the OFF period. The sensed voltage V(ILIM) is compared
with the power ground (PGND) after a blanking time of
150ns. In this way the drop voltage over the resistor R15
(VCL) is compared with the drop over the bottom FET
generating the short current limit. The small capacitor (C6)
connected from ILIM pin to PGND filters the switching
node ringing during the off-time allowing a better short limit
measurement. The time constant created by R15 and C6
should be much less tha n t he m ini m um off time.
The VCL drop allows programming of short limit through the
value of the resistor (R15), If the absolute value of the
voltage drop on the bottom FET is greater than VCL. In that
case the V(ILIM) is lower than PGND and a short circuit
event is triggered. A hiccup cycle to treat the short event is
generated. The hiccup sequence including the soft start
reduces the stress on the switching FETs and protects the
load and supply f or sev ere short conditions.
The short circuit current limit can be programmed by using
the following formula:

VCL = Current-limit threshold (typical absolute value is
14mV per Electrical Characteristics Table in MIC28304
data sheet)
ICL = Current-limit source current (typical value is 80µA,
per the Electrical C haracteristics table).
ΔIL(PP) = Inductor current peak-to-peak, since the inductor
is integrated use Equation 4 to calculate the inductor ripple
current.
The peak-to-peak indu ct or current ripple is:

Eq. 4
The MIC28304 has 4.7µH inductor integrated into the
module. The typical value of RWINDING(DCR) of this particular
inductor is in the range of 45mΩ.
In case of hard short, the short limit is folded down to allow
an indefinite hard short on the output without any
destructive effect. It is mandatory to make sure that the
inductor current used to charge the output capacitance
during soft start is under the folded short limit; otherwise
the supply will go in hiccup mode and may not be finishing
the soft start successfully.
The MOSFET RDS(ON) varies 30 to 40% with temperature.
Therefore, it is recommended to add a 50% margin to ICLIM
in the above equation to avoid false current limiting due to
increased MOSFET junction temperature rise. The
following table shows typical output current limit value for a
given R15 with C6 = 10pF .

Loop Gain Measurement
Resistor R14 is placed in series with the regulator
feedback path. The control loop gain can be measured by
connecting an impedance analyzer across the resistor and
selecting the resist or value in between 20Ω to 50Ω.
Setting the Switching Frequency
The MIC28304 switching frequency can be adjusted by
changing the value of resistor R19. The top resistor of
100kΩ is internal to module and is connected between VIN
and FREQ pin, so the value of R19 sets the switching
frequency. The switching frequency also depends on VIN,
VOUT and load conditions.
