Datasheet

Description

The MPQ4360 is a configurable-frequency, synchronous, step-down switch-mode converter with integrated, internal high-side and low-side power MOSFETs. The device provides up to 6A of highly efficient output current (I_OUT), with current mode control for fast loop response. The wide 3.3V to 40V input voltage (V_IN) range accommodates a variety of step-down applications in an automotive input environment. The 1.7μA shutdown current (ISD) allows the part to be used in battery-powered applications.

High power conversion efficiency across the wide load range is achieved by scaling down the switching frequency (f_SW) under light-load conditions to reduce the switching and gate driving losses. An open-drain power good (PG) signal indicates whether the output voltage (V_OUT) is between 95% and 105% of its nominal voltage.

Frequency foldback prevents inductor current (I_L) runaway during start-up. Thermal shutdown provides reliable, fault-tolerant operation. A high duty cycle and low-dropout mode are provided for automotive cold-crank conditions.

The MPQ4360 is available in a QFN-20 (4mmx4mm) package.
