MP38873

The MP38873 is a monolithic step-down switch mode converter with a built in internal power MOSFET. It achieves 15A 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 cycle­by­cycle current limiting and thermal shutdown. The MP38873 requires a minimum number of readily available standard external components and is available in a 20-pin 3mm x 4mm QFN package. The MP38873 is ideal for a wide range of applications including distributed power systems, pre-regulator for linear regulators, compact DC-DC regulators for PCB space limited platforms.
