DESCRIPTION
The MP2355 is a step-down regulator with a
built in internal Power MOSFET. It achieves 3A
continuous output current over a wide input
supply range with excellent load and line
regulation.
Current mode operation provides fast transient
response and eases loop stabilization. Fault
condition protection includes cycle-by-cycle
current limiting and thermal shutdown. Adjustable
soft-start reduces the stress on the input source
at turn-on. In shutdown mode the regulator draws
20µA of supply current.
The MP2355 uses a minimum number of
readily available external components to
complete a 3A step-down DC to DC converter
solution.
