MPQ8636_MPQ8636H
High Efficiency, 10A, 18V
Synchronous, Step-Down Converter
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MPQ8636-10/MPQ8636H-10 is a fully-
integrated, high-frequency, synchronous, rectified,
step-down, switch-mode converter. It offers a very
compact solution to achieve either a 10A output
current over a wide input supply range, with
excellent load and line regulation. The MPQ8636-
10/MPQ8636H-10 operates at high efficiency
over a wide output-current–load range.
Wide 4.5V-to-18V Operating Input Range
10A Output Current
Low RDS(ON) Internal Power MOSFETs
Proprietary Switching-Loss–Reduction
Technique
Adaptive COT for Ultrafast Transient
Response
0.5% Reference Voltage Over 0°C to 70°C
Junction Temperature Range
Programmable Soft-Start Time
Pre-Bias Start-Up
Programmable Switching Frequency from
200kHz to 1MHz
Non-Latch OCP, OVP, and Thermal
Shutdown
Optional OVP Mode: Latch-Off Mode
(MPQ8636-10) and Non-Latch Mode
(MPQ8636H-10)
The MPQ8636-10/MPQ8636H-10 uses Constant-
On-Time (COT) control to provide a fast transient
response and ease loop stabilization.
An external resistor programs the operating
frequency from 200kHz to 1MHz, and the
frequency keeps nearly constant as input
supply
varies
with
the
feed-forward
compensation.
The default under-voltage lockout threshold is
internally set at 4.1V, but a resistor network on
the enable pin can increase this threshold. The
soft-start pin controls the output-voltage startup
ramp. An open-drain power-good signal
indicates that the output is within nominal
voltage range.
Output Adjustable from 0.611V to 13V
APPLICATIONS
Telecom and Networking Systems
Base Stations
Servers
Personal Video Recorders
Flat-Panel Televisions and Monitors
Distributed Power Systems
It has fully-integrated protection features that
include over-current protection, over-voltage
protection and thermal shutdown.
The MPQ8636-10/MPQ8636H-10 requires a
minimal number of readily-available, standard,
external components and is available in a
3mm×4mm QFN package.
