MPQ2490
Industrial Grade, 1.5A, 36V, 700kHz
Step-Down Converter
with Programmable Output Current Limit
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
Wide 4.5V to 36V Operating Input Range
Programmable up to 1.5A Output Current
Output Adjustable from 0.8V to 15V
Programmable Output Current Limit without
power loss
The MPQ2490 is a monolithic step-down switch
mode converter with programmable output
current limit. It achieves 1.5A continuous output
current over a wide input supply range with
excellent load and line regulation.
0.25Ω Internal Power MOSFET Switch
Stable with Low ESR Output Ceramic
Capacitors
The maximum output current can be
programmed by sensing current through the
inductor DC resistance (DCR) or an accurate
sense resistor.
95% Efficiency @ 500mA (Vo=5V)
Fixed 700kHz Frequency
Thermal Shutdown
Cycle-by-Cycle Over Current Protection
Available in QFN10 Package
Fault
condition
protection
includes
cycle•by•cycle current limiting and thermal
shutdown.
The MPQ2490 requires a minimum number of
readily available standard external components.
The MPQ2490 is available in QFN (3x3mm)
package.
