General Description
The MIC2159 is a high efficiency, simple to use synchronous buck controller ICs housed in a 10-pin MSOP ePAD package. The MIC2159 switches at 400kHz, allowing the smallest possible external components and is
designed to drive loads up to 30A. The devices feature high output driver capability, combined with an all n
channel synchronous architecture.
