MC34063A Description

MC34063A is a monolithic control circuit integrated chip containing all the primary circuitry and functions needed for building simple DC-DC converters.

 

These devices primarily consist of an internal temperature-compensated reference, a comparator, an oscillator, a PWM controller with active current limiting, a driver, and a high-current output switch. 

 

This series was specifically designed to be incorporated in StepDown and StepUp and Voltage Inverting applications with a minimum number of external components. It has a switching frequency of up to 100 kHz. 

 

Due to its voltage conversion property, it is used in DC-to-DC converters. You can adjust its output voltage by only two external resistors. It operates in a temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C. It is used in voltage regulation applications and devices like chargers.

MC34063A Functional Block Diagram

Where to use MC34063A?

The MC34063A is a DC-DC converter IC, which is normally used to design Buck (step-down), Boost (Step-UP) or Inverter (DC to AC) circuits. It is an industrial standard IC and can be found in Automobile phone chargers to regulate 5V for mobile phones. Since the regulation occurs through switching it is very efficient than linear circuits.

 

The input voltage for the IC is from 3V to 40V and the output voltage can be varied from 1.25V to 40V and the maximum output current can be upto 1.5A. So if you looking to design DC-DC converter with above specifications then MC34063A might be of interest to you.

How to use M34063A?

As told earlier the MC34063A can be used to design a Buck, Boost or Inverter circuit. The sample application circuit diagram for all three can be found in the MC34063A datasheet.

The IC requires minimum number of components to be operational. The pin 1 and 2 has a pair of transistors between them which is switching to regulate the required output voltage. The pin 3 is connected to a capacitor which determines the switching frequency of the IC. The output voltage is set by forming a potential divider at pin 5. The formulae to calculate the output voltage can be given by.

Vout = 1.25(1 + R8/R7)

A sample MC34063A circuit diagram for buck and boost circuit using the MC3463A IC is shown below.

In the above two circuits, the boost converter is designed to convert 12V to 28V with a current rating of 125mA and the buck converter is used to convert 25V to 28V with a current rating of 500mA. There are also options to limit the output current and set the switching frequency using the below formulas in the table, also available on the MC34063A datasheet linked below.
