Monolithic Power Systems MP2322 Step-Down Converter

Space-saving 1 A step-down converter provides high efficiency for light loads

The MP2322 is a synchronous step-down converter from Monolithic Power Systems which provides up to 1 A of continuous output current at high efficiency across an input-voltage range of 3 V to 22 V. 


To increase efficiency when supplying light loads, the converter automatically reduces the switching frequency. The device reverts to PWM mode once the output current exceeds the critical level. Constant-on-time control ensures that the MP2322 responds fast to load transients.


The MP2322 is a space-saving option for designers. Housed in a compact QFN-8 package measuring 1.5 mm x 2 mm, the MP2322 includes integrated power MOSFETs, and requires a minimal number of readily available, standard external components.


The converter also provides a full suite of protection features, including over-current protection, over-voltage protection, and thermal shutdown.

Features

  • 5 mA supply current
  • Integrated power MOSFETs:
    • 260 mΩ on-resistance on high side
    • 120 mΩ on-resistance on low side
  • 25 MHz fixed switching frequency in continuous conduction mode
  • Power Good indication

Applications

  • IoT devices
  • Home automation
  • Home security
  • Lithium-ion battery systems
  • Multi-cell dry battery systems
  • White goods

Evaluation Kit
