MP9842
36V, 2A, Low IQ,
Step-Down Converter
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP9842 is a high-frequency, synchronous,
rectified, step-down, switch-mode converter
with built-in power MOSFETs. It offers a very
compact solution that achieves 2A of
continuous output current with excellent load
and line regulation over a wide 3.3V to 36V
input supply range. The switching frequency is
programmable or can be synchronized to an
external clock in the range of 350kHz to
2.5MHz. Synchronous operation and ultra-low
14μA sleep mode quiescent current provide
high efficiency over the output current load
range, allowing the MP9842 to be used in a
variety of step-down applications in automotive
input environments and battery-powered
applications.

Peak-current-mode operation provides fast
transient response and eases loop stabilization.
The excellent low dropout performance allows
the MP9842 to be used in high duty cycle
applications.
All MPS parts are lead-free, halogen-free, and adhere to the RoHS
directive. For MPS green status, please visit the MPS website under
Quality Assurance. “MPS” and “The Future of Analog IC Technology” are

Full protection features include over-current
protection (OCP), short-circuit protection (SCP),
and thermal shutdown. An open-drain power
good (PG) signal indicates when the output is
within 10% of its nominal voltage.
The MP9842 is available in a space-saving
QFN-16 (3mmx4mm) package.
