NXP Semiconductors MMPF0100F2AEP

Overview

MMPF0100F2AEP from NXP Semiconductors is a 14-channel configurable power management IC (PMIC) designed for i.MX 6-based embedded platforms. It integrates six buck converters (including SW1A/B/C, SW2, SW3A/B, SW4), six linear regulators (VGEN1–VGEN6), coin-cell charger, RTC supply, DDR termination reference (VREFDDR), and I²C programmable control logic. It delivers up to 2.5 A per high-current buck channel and supports full power sequencing for application processors and memory subsystems in eReaders and IPTV systems.

For engineers reviewing the MMPF0100F2AEP datasheet, MMPF0100F2AEP pinout, MMPF0100F2AEP application, or MMPF0100F2AEP equivalent, key selection criteria include its OTP-programmable configuration (F2 variant), 56-pin QFN 8×8 mm E-type package, -40 °C to +85 °C operating range, integrated VSNVS LDO/switch, and support for DDR memory interface biasing via VREFDDR.

Technical Context

The MMPF0100F2AEP implements a hierarchical power tree with independent state machine control for each regulator domain, enabling precise startup/shutdown sequencing across core, memory, and peripheral rails. Its architecture includes dual-phase capability for SW1A/B, DDR termination tracking mode, and dedicated VHALF/VINREFDDR inputs for adaptive VREFDDR generation.

Control is executed via an I²C interface (SCL/SDA) with programmable interrupt outputs (INTB, SDWNB, RESETBMCU) and processor-driven signals (PWRON, STANDBY). The on-chip OTP memory stores configuration including voltage setpoints, timing delays, enable/disable states, and DVS control parameters - all locked at manufacturing for the F2 variant.

FAQ

What is the OTP configuration of MMPF0100F2AEP?

The MMPF0100F2AEP is factory-programmed with the F2 OTP configuration, which defines voltage setpoints, power-up/down sequencing, and functional enablement for i.MX 6Dual/QuadLite platforms. This configuration is immutable after shipment and matches no reference design in Table 1 - it is a standalone variant validated for general-purpose embedded use cases requiring DDR3 termination tracking and dual-phase SW1 support.

Does MMPF0100F2AEP support DDR3 memory interface biasing?

Yes, MMPF0100F2AEP supports DDR3 interface biasing via its dedicated VREFDDR regulator, which outputs a precision 0.9 V reference. When used with the VHALF input (set to half the DDR supply), the VREFDDR block enters tracking mode - maintaining optimal termination voltage across temperature and supply variation, a requirement for stable DDR3 operation.

What is the maximum output current capability of the SW1A/B buck regulators in MMPF0100F2AEP?

The SW1A and SW1B buck regulators in MMPF0100F2AEP each support up to 2.5 A continuous output current in single-phase mode. In dual-phase configuration, they combine to deliver up to 5.0 A total to a single rail - enabling high-efficiency core voltage delivery for i.MX 6Dual/Quad processors without external current-sharing components.

Can MMPF0100F2AEP be used in industrial temperature applications?

No, MMPF0100F2AEP is rated for -40 °C to +85 °C ambient operation (consumer qualification tier). For extended industrial applications up to +105 °C, NXP offers the ANES-suffix variants (e.g., MMPF0100F2ANES), which use the WF-type QFN package with wettable flanks and are qualified to the extended temperature range.

How is thermal protection implemented in MMPF0100F2AEP?

MMPF0100F2AEP includes four thermal interrupt thresholds (THERM110I, THERM120I, THERM125I, THERM130I) monitored by an on-die temperature sensor. When junction temperature crosses any threshold, the corresponding interrupt flag is asserted on INTB. At 130 °C, thermal shutdown activates with 8 ms debounce - a fail-safe mechanism requiring system-level thermal design to avoid activation during normal operation.
