MP2560
2.5A, 4MHz, 42V
Step-Down Converter
The Future of Analog IC Technology
DESCRIPTION
The MP2560 is a high frequency step-down
switching regulator with an integrated internal
high-side high voltage power MOSFET. It
provides 2.5A output with current mode control for
fast loop response and easy compensation.
The wide 4.5V to 42V input range accommodates
a variety of step-down applications, including
those in an automotive input environment. A 12µA
shutdown mode quiescent current allows use in
battery-powered applications.
High power conversion efficiency over a wide
load range is achieved by scaling down the
switching frequency at light load condition to
reduce the switching and gate driving losses.
The frequency foldback helps prevent inductor
current runaway during startup and thermal
shutdown provides reliable, fault tolerant
operation.
By switching at 4MHz, the MP2560 is able to
prevent EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) noise
problems, such as those found in AM radio and
ADSL applications.
The MP2560 is available in small 3mm x 3mm
QFN10 and thermally enhanced SOIC8 packages.

Notes:
1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
2) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the
maximum junction temperature T
J
(MAX), the junction-to-
ambient thermal resistance
θ
JA
, and the ambient temperature
T
A
. The maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at
any ambient temperature is calculated by P
D
(MAX) = (T
J
(MAX)-T
A
)/θ
JA
. Exceeding the maximum allowable power
dissipation will cause excessive die temperature, and the
regulator will go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal
shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent
damage.
3) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its
operating conditions.
4) Measured on JESD51-7 4-layer board.

Description
Switch Node. This is the output from the high-side switch. A low forward drop
Schottky diode to ground is required. The diode must be close to the SW pins to
reduce switching spikes.
Enable Input. Pulling this pin below the specified threshold shuts the chip down.
Pulling it up above the specified threshold or leaving it floating enables the chip.
Compensation. This node is the output of the error amplifier. Control loop frequency
compensation is applied to this pin.
Feedback. This is the input to the error amplifier. The output voltage is set by a
resistive divider connected between the output and GND which scales down V
OUT
equal to the internal +0.8V reference.

Ground. It should be connected as close as possible to the output capacitor to
Exposed
shorten the high current switch paths. Connect exposed pad to ground plane.
Pad
Switching Frequency Program Input. Connect a resistor from this pin to ground to set
FREQ
the switching frequency.
Input Supply. This supplies power to all the internal control circuitry, both BS
VIN
regulators and the high-side switch. A decoupling capacitor to ground must be placed
close to this pin to minimize switching spikes.
Bootstrap. This is the positive power supply for the internal floating high-side
BST
MOSFET driver. Connect a bypass capacitor between this pin and SW pin.
