The Future of Analog IC Technology
MPQ2451
Industrial/Automotive-Grade 36V, 2MHz, 0.6A Step-Down Converter
AEC-Q100 Qualified
DESCRIPTION
The MPQ2451 is a high frequency, step-down, switching regulator with an integrated highvoltage high-side power MOSFET. It efficiently provides up to a 0.6A output with current-mode control for fast loop response.
The wide 3.3V-to-36V input range accommodates a variety of automotive step-down applications, and the 3μA shutdown-mode quiescent current allows use in battery-powered applications.
The MPQ2451 achieves high power-conversion efficiency over a wide load range by scaling down the switching frequency under light-load condition to reduce the switching and gate driving losses.
Frequency fold-back prevents inductor current runaway during start-up.
