MPQ2169
6V, Dual 1.4A/1.4A or 2A/0.8A
Low Quiescent Current,
Synchronous Buck with PG and SS
AEC-Q100 Qualified
DESCRIPTION
The MPQ2169 is an internally compensated,
dual, PWM, synchronous, step-down regulator
that operates from a 2.7V to 6V input and
generates an output voltage as low as 0.6V.
The MPQ2169 can be configured as a
1.4A/1.4A or 2A/0.8A output current regulator
and is ideal for powering portable equipment
that runs on a single-cell lithium-ion (Li+)
battery due to its low 60µA quiescent current.
The MPQ2169 integrates dual, 60mΩ, high-side
switches and 25mΩ synchronous rectifiers to
achieve high efficiency without an external
Schottky diode. The MPQ2169 has peak-
current-mode control and internal compensation
and is capable of low dropout configurations.
Both channels can operate at 100% duty cycle.
Full protection features include cycle-by-cycle
current limit and thermal shutdown.
The MPQ2169 requires a minimal number of
readily
available,
standard,
external
components and is available in QFN-18
(2mmx3mm) and QFN-18 (2.5mmx3.5mm)
packages.

Description
Power ground for channel 2.
Connect PGND2 with larger copper
areas to the negative terminals of the input and output capacitors.
PGND2 must be connected to PGND1 on board externally.
Switch node connection to the inductor for channel 2.
SW2
connects to the internal high- and low-side power MOSFET switches
of the channel 2 buck.
Input supply for channel 2.
Place a decoupling capacitor to ground
close to VIN2 to reduce switching spikes.
Soft start for channel 2.
Feedback for channel 2.
FB2 is the input to the error amplifier of
channel 2. An external resistive divider connects FB2 between the
output and ground. The voltage on FB2 is compared with the internal
0.6V reference to set the regulation voltage of channel 2.
Analog ground.
Connect AGND to PGND1 and PGND2 externally on
the board.

Decouple VCC with a 0.1 - 1µF capacitor between VCC and AGND.
AAM or forced CCM control.
Pull CCM high to enter forced CCM
mode. Pull CCM low to enter AAM mode at light load. Do not float
CCM.
Feedback for channel 1.
FB1 is the input to the error amplifier of
channel 1. An external resistive divider connects FB1 between the
output and GND. The voltage on FB1 is compared with the internal
0.6V reference to set the regulation voltage of channel 1.
Soft start for channel 1.
Input supply for channel 1.
Place a decoupling capacitor to ground
close to VIN1 to reduce switching spikes.
Switch node connection to the inductor for channel 1.
SW1

QFN-18 (2mmx3mm)..............70……15….°C/W
QFN-18 (2.5mmx3.5mm)........50……12….°C/W
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 produces an excessive die temperature, causing
the device to go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal
shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent
damage.
3) Measured on JESD51-7, 4-layer PCB.
