MP4462
3.5A, 4MHz, 36V
Step-Down Converter
The Future of Analog IC Technology
DESCRIPTION
The MP4462 is a high frequency step-down
switching regulator with an integrated internal
high-side high voltage power MOSFET. It
provides 3.5A output with current mode control for
fast loop response and easy compensation.
The wide 3.8V to 36V input range accommodates
a variety of step-down applications, including
those in an automotive input environment. A
120µA operational quiescent current allows use in
battery-powered applications.
High power conversion efficiency over a wide
load range is achieved by scaling down the
switching frequency at light load condition to
reduce the switching and gate driving losses.
The frequency foldback helps prevent inductor
current runaway during startup and thermal
shutdown provides reliable, fault tolerant
operation.
In some applications, such as AM radio and
ADSL applications, in which the device is
sensitive to frequency band, the MP4462 can
avoid the related EMI problem by setting the
frequency at 4MHz.
The MP4462 is available in small 3x3mm QFN10
and SOIC8E packages.
