Product details
Overview
FAN2013MPX from Fairchild Semiconductor is a 2A synchronous PWM buck regulator with current-mode control, operating from 4.5V–5.5V input and delivering adjustable output (0.8V to VIN−1V) in a 3×3 mm MLP package. It features 1.3 MHz fixed-frequency switching, 95% peak efficiency, power-good flag, and integrated over-voltage, thermal, and short-circuit protection - deployed in notebook computers and hard disk drives.
For engineers reviewing the FAN2013MPX datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 2A continuous output capability, 1.3 MHz switching frequency for compact magnetics, 0.8V reference accuracy, 100% duty-cycle LDO mode, and 6-lead MLP thermal performance.
Technical Context
The FAN2013MPX implements a current-mode PWM architecture with internal slope compensation and a 1.3 MHz oscillator, enabling fast load transient response and stable regulation across line and load variations. Its dual-MOSFET synchronous topology eliminates external diode losses and supports 100% duty cycle operation near VIN = VOUT.
Control logic includes digital soft-start (four-step current ramp), UVLO with 3.7V threshold and 150 mV hysteresis, and open-drain PG flag with 100 µs delay and ±2% threshold accuracy. Protection circuitry integrates cycle-by-cycle current limiting (3.5 A typical), over-temperature shutdown (150°C trip, 130°C restart), and output over-voltage clamp (7% OV threshold).

Pinout & Package
Package: 3×3 mm, 6-lead Molded Leadless Package (MLP), lead-free per JEDEC J-STD-020B, exposed thermal pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| P1 (AGND) | Analog Ground | Reference ground for feedback and error amplifier; must be soldered directly to PCB ground plane. |
| 1 (FB) | Feedback Input | Connects to resistor divider to set output voltage; senses 0.8 V reference for regulation. |
| 2 (PGND) | Power Ground | Return path for internal MOSFET switches; externally tied to AGND at single-point star ground. |
| 3 (SW) | Switching Node | Drives external inductor; carries high dv/dt and peak currents - requires tight layout routing. |
| 4 (PVIN) | Power Input | Supplies internal high-side PMOS switch; decoupled separately from VIN for noise isolation. |
| 5 (VIN) | Supply Input | Provides bias for control circuitry and low-side NMOS gate drive; accepts 4.5–5.5 V. |
| 6 (PG) | Power-Good Flag | Open-drain output asserting high when VOUT is within ±3% of target; sinks 6 mA max. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous Buck Topology | Eliminates external Schottky diode, reducing conduction loss and improving efficiency above 1 A. |
| 100% Duty-Cycle LDO Mode | Maintains regulation down to VOUT = VIN − (IOUT × RDS_ON_PMOS), critical for low-dropout point-of-load conversion. |
| Digital Soft-Start | Four-step current ramp limits inrush; achieves full 2 A output in ~800 µs with 40 µF COUT. |
| Current-Mode Control | Enables inherent cycle-by-cycle current limiting and superior load transient response (<5% VOUT deviation). |
| Integrated Protections | UVLO, OVP (7%), thermal shutdown (150°C), and short-circuit foldback prevent system-level fault propagation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS54202DRCT | 4.5–17 V input range; 2 A output; 500 kHz–2.2 MHz adjustable frequency; no 100% duty cycle mode. | Wider input range suits 12 V intermediate bus; lower switching frequency increases inductor size but eases EMI filtering. | Select when input exceeds 5.5 V or programmable frequency is required; verify loop stability with external compensation. |
| RT8059GJ6 | 2.7–5.5 V input; 2 A output; 1.5 MHz fixed frequency; 0.6 V reference; no PG flag or digital soft-start. | Lacks power-good signaling and advanced soft-start - unsuitable for sequenced multi-rail systems. | Choose for cost-sensitive, single-rail 3.3 V or 2.5 V applications where PG and precise startup control are unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS54202DRCT and RT8059GJ6, the FAN2013MPX uniquely combines 5 V input optimization, 100% duty-cycle LDO mode, and integrated PG flag - making it preferred for tightly regulated 5 V-based notebook and storage subsystems requiring deterministic power sequencing and minimal dropout.

FAQ
What is the minimum output voltage supported by the FAN2013MPX?
The FAN2013MPX supports an adjustable output voltage range from 0.8 V to VIN−1 V. Its internal 0.8 V reference sets the lowest possible regulated output; using a resistor divider on the FB pin allows precise setting of any value ≥0.8 V, such as 1.05 V or 1.2 V, with ±2% accuracy over temperature and load.
Does the FAN2013MPX require external compensation components?
No, the FAN2013MPX uses internal compensation and requires no external RC network. Its current-mode control architecture with built-in slope compensation provides stable operation with standard 2.2 µH inductors and 40–60 µF output capacitance, simplifying design and reducing BOM count.
How does the FAN2013MPX handle input voltage drop near the output level?
The FAN2013MPX enters 100% duty-cycle LDO mode when VIN approaches VOUT, maintaining regulation by turning the P-channel MOSFET fully on. In this mode, VOUT = VIN − (IOUT × RDS_ON_PMOS), with RDS_ON_PMOS ≈ 90 mΩ - enabling functional operation even at VIN = 4.5 V for a 1.2 V output.
What is the purpose of separate VIN and PVIN pins on the FAN2013MPX?
VIN powers the control circuitry and low-side gate driver, while PVIN supplies only the high-side PMOS switch. This separation reduces noise coupling from switching transients into sensitive analog blocks, improving regulation accuracy and EMI performance - especially critical in noise-sensitive applications like communications equipment.
Can the FAN2013MPX be used without the power-good (PG) signal?
Yes, the PG pin is optional and can be left unconnected if power sequencing is not required. However, omitting PG forfeits system-level fault detection and startup coordination; for reliable operation in notebook or HDD applications, tying PG to a microcontroller interrupt or enable input is strongly recommended to validate FAN2013MPX output stability before downstream logic activation.
