MIC33M350 Evaluation Board User’s Guide MIC33M350 EVALUATION BOARD DESCRIPTION The MIC33M350 Evaluation Board is used to evaluate and demonstrate Microchip Technology’s MIC33M350 module. The MIC33M350 Evaluation Board demonstrates MIC33M350’s capabilities in a buck converter application, supplied from an external voltage source (2.4V-5.5V) to pin programmed regulated output. Two jumpers are provided to select the desired output voltage from nine preset values.

Chapter 2. Installation and Operation INTRODUCTION The MIC33M350 device has been developed for applications suited for 2.4V to 5.5V input voltage range, low shutdown, quiescent currents and high continuous output current. These characteristics make the MIC33M350 device ideal for single cell Li-Ion battery-powered applications.
