Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) MP8795 Step-Down Converters

Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) MP8795 Step-Down Converters are a fully integrated compact solution achieving up to 15A of output current with excellent load and line regulation over a wide input supply range. The MP8795 employs an internally compensated constant-on-time (COT) control mode that offers a fast transient response and eases loop stabilization. The operating frequency is easily adjustable with a MODE pin configuration to 600kHz, 800kHz, or 1000kHz. This configuration results in the MP8795 frequency remaining constant regardless of the input and output voltages.

The output voltage start-up ramp on the MP8795 is controlled by an internal 1ms timer and is increased by adding a capacitor on SS. An open-drain power-good (PGOOD) signal indicates if the output is within its nominal voltage range or not. PGOOD is clamped at around 0.7V with an external pull-up voltage when the input supply fails to power the MP8795.

The MPS MP8795 Step-Down Converters deliver full protection features, including over-current protection (OCP), over-voltage protection (OVP), under-voltage protection (UVP), and over-temperature protection (OTP).

The MP8795 requires a minimal number of readily available, standard, external components. The MP8795 is housed in a very compact solution in a QFN-21 (3mm x 4mm) package.
