Microchip Technology CIP Hybrid Power Starter Kit

Microchip Technology CIP Hybrid Power Starter Kit is designed to demonstrate the flexibility of Core Independent Peripheral (CIP) hybrid power MCU as used in SMPS applications. This starter kit is a hardware platform incorporating the PIC16F1779 as a synchronous buck converter's freely programmable Power Management IC (PMIC) device. The CIP hybrid power starter kit supports three control modes: Voltage Mode Control (VMC), Peak Current Mode Control (PCMC), and Average Current Mode Control (ACMC). This starter kit features one power-on LED, two status LEDs, a mechanical user switch, I2C bridge support, an onboard debugger, and 94.4% efficiency at 65% load.

The CIP hybrid power starter kit's PIC16F1779 CIP hybrid power MCU incorporates four digitally enhanced analog PWM controller function blocks into a low-power, 8-bit MCU architecture. The MCU core activity is independent of the PWM controller functional block operation as the PWM controller functional blocks are built in as CIPs. These PWM controller blocks can be configured at design or run time to create nonlinear operating profiles for applications. Microchip Technology CIP Hybrid Power Starter Kit applications include programmable power supplies, multi-loop control systems, and intelligent PMIC devices for embedded systems.
