Microchip MCPF1525 and MIC45M235 Switching Buck Regulator Modules

High density DC/DC power solutions with integrated design simplicity

Microchip MCPF1525 and MIC45M235 switching buck regulator modules provide highly integrated power conversion solutions that help simplify the design of high current power rails. By integrating key power stage components into compact modules, these devices reduce component count, accelerate development, and support reliable power delivery across a wide range of computing, communications, industrial, and embedded applications.

As power requirements continue to increase while available board space remains limited, power supply design can become increasingly complex due to layout constraints, thermal considerations, and transient performance requirements. The MCPF1525 and MIC45M235 help address these challenges by offering optimized module-based architectures that simplify implementation while maintaining high efficiency and robust performance.

The MCPF1525 delivers up to 25A output current and supports stackable operation for applications requiring scalable power capability. The MIC45M235 combines a high efficiency integrated buck regulator design with a compact footprint, making it well suited for powering FPGAs, ASICs, processors, memory, and other performance-critical loads.

Together, these modules provide flexible options for designers seeking compact, high current, and easy-to-implement power solutions for next-generation electronic systems.
