Product details
Overview
MP2119DQ-LF-P from Monolithic Power Systems is a 2A, 6V synchronous step-down switching regulator with fixed 1.5MHz PWM operation, 0.8V to 0.9×VIN adjustable output, integrated 100mΩ high- and low-side MOSFETs, and power-good (POK) monitoring - deployed in µP core supplies and point-of-load regulation for FPGA I/O rails.
For engineers reviewing the MP2119DQ-LF-P datasheet, MP2119DQ-LF-P pinout, MP2119DQ-LF-P application, or MP2119DQ-LF-P equivalent, key selection considerations include its internal soft-start (120µs), frequency synchronization input (1–2MHz), ±10% POK window, thermal shutdown (150°C), and QFN10 (3mm × 3mm) package with exposed thermal pad.
Technical Context
The MP2119DQ-LF-P implements peak current-mode control with internal Type II compensation, eliminating external compensation components while supporting loop bandwidth tuning via FB resistor selection (e.g., 400kΩ for 70kHz with 47µF ceramic output cap). Its transconductance gain of 11.25A/V links COMP voltage directly to output current capability.
It integrates dual-function EN/SYNC pin enabling both enable/disable control (1.6V/0.4V thresholds) and external clock synchronization (1–2MHz), with hiccup-mode short-circuit protection triggered when VOUT drops below 50% nominal and automatic restart after soft-start capacitor discharge.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Current | 2A continuous - supports FPGA core/I/O rails without external current boosting. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 6V - compatible with single-cell Li-ion, USB-powered, and 3.3V/5V intermediate bus systems. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.5MHz (±20%) - enables compact 0.47–1µH inductors and reduces EMI filter size. |
| Feedback Reference | 0.800V ±24mV - sets output accuracy; used with external resistor divider for precise VOUT adjustment. |
| Power Good Threshold | ±10% of regulated VOUT - provides reliable system-level power sequencing and fault detection. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C with 20°C hysteresis - protects die during overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
| Soft-Start Time | 120µs - prevents inrush current and ensures controlled startup into pre-biased outputs. |
Pinout & Package
MP2119DQ-LF-P is housed in a thermally enhanced 3mm × 3mm QFN10 package with exposed pad (Pin 11) requiring direct connection to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal performance (θJA = 50°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 FB | Feedback Input | Connects to resistive divider; compares against 0.8V internal reference to regulate VOUT. |
| 2,9 GND | Ground Return | Dual ground pins reduce impedance path for input/output capacitors and SW node return current. |
| 3,8 SW | Switch Node | Common connection point for internal high/low-side MOSFETs and external inductor. |
| 4,7 IN | Input Supply | Accepts 2.7–6V; requires local 10–47µF ceramic decoupling per pin for low-impedance switching current return. |
| 5 BS | Bootstrap Supply | Drives high-side gate via external 0.1µF capacitor to SW; enables N-channel high-side switch. |
| 6 POK | Open-Drain Power Good | Asserts LOW if VOUT deviates >±10%; 30µs deglitch prevents false triggering during transients. |
| 10 EN/SYNC | Enable & Sync Input | EN: logic-high >1.6V enables; <0.4V disables. SYNC: accepts 1–2MHz external clock for EMI reduction. |
| 11 Exposed Pad | Thermal & Electrical Ground | Mandatory solder connection to internal ground plane; critical for thermal dissipation and noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| All-ceramic capacitor support | Eliminates need for electrolytic output caps - reduces board area, improves reliability, and avoids ESR-related loop instability. |
| Internal soft-start (120µs) | Prevents output overshoot and inrush stress on downstream loads; supports safe startup into pre-biased rails. |
| Hiccup-mode short-circuit protection | Shuts down and auto-restarts only after fault removal - avoids thermal runaway while maintaining system visibility. |
| Frequency synchronization input | Enables EMI reduction by locking switching noise to known frequency bands - critical for EMC-compliant designs. |
| Integrated 100mΩ HS/LS MOSFETs | Delivers >90% efficiency at 2A/1.8V out from 5V in - eliminates Schottky diode losses and associated layout complexity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RT7290BZSP | 2A, 1.2MHz, 2.5–5.5V input, 0.6V ref, no POK or sync input | Lacks power-good reporting and frequency synchronization - unsuitable for safety-critical or EMI-sensitive systems. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for POK/sync and input range is limited to 2.5–5.5V. |
| TPS562201DDCR | 2A, 500kHz–1.7MHz adjustable freq, 4.5–17V input, 0.6V ref, POK, but larger 6-pin SOT-23 package | Wider VIN range trades off higher minimum input voltage; lower base frequency increases inductor size requirements. | Choose when input exceeds 6V or board space allows larger SOT-23 footprint and higher thermal resistance is acceptable. |
Compared with RT7290BZSP and TPS562201DDCR, MP2119DQ-LF-P uniquely combines 1.5MHz fixed frequency, 2.7–6V input, integrated POK, and QFN10 thermal performance - making it optimal for compact, noise-sensitive, and safety-monitored 2A PoL designs.

FAQ
What is the minimum recommended output capacitance for stable operation?
The MP2119DQ-LF-P requires ≥47µF ceramic output capacitance (X5R/X7R) for stable regulation and optimal transient response. Lower values risk loop instability and excessive output ripple; electrolytic alternatives require careful ESR-based feedback compensation redesign per datasheet Equation 1.
Can MP2119DQ-LF-P operate with a pre-biased output?
Yes - the IC disables switching until the internal soft-start capacitor voltage exceeds the sensed FB voltage, preventing reverse current flow into a pre-biased rail. This behavior is confirmed in the Functional Description section and validated across -40°C to +85°C operating range.
Is an external Schottky diode required for 2A operation?
No - the MP2119DQ-LF-P integrates synchronous rectification and operates efficiently at 2A without external diodes. However, a 0.5A/≥6V Schottky (e.g., B0530) placed near SW/GND is recommended to suppress voltage spikes and improve efficiency marginally at full load.
What is the maximum allowable duty cycle and how does it affect 5V-to-1.8V conversion?
The maximum duty cycle is 90%, limiting the lowest achievable output voltage to 0.9×VIN. For 5V input, this supports outputs down to 4.5V - but since MP2119DQ-LF-P uses adjustable feedback, 1.8V operation is fully supported via resistor divider scaling (e.g., R1=400kΩ, R2=316kΩ per Table 1).
How does the EN/SYNC pin behave when driven with a 1.5MHz square wave?
When a 1.5MHz square wave is applied, the MP2119DQ-LF-P synchronizes its internal oscillator to that frequency within one cycle, provided ON/OFF periods remain <4µs. If either period exceeds 4µs, the pin reverts to enable/disable mode, potentially disabling the device unexpectedly.
What thermal derating applies above +85°C ambient?
At TA = +105°C, the maximum continuous output current drops to ~1.6A due to thermal limits (θJA = 50°C/W, TJ(MAX) = 150°C). Derating follows PD(MAX) = (150 – TA)/50; at +105°C, max dissipation is 0.9W, corresponding to ~1.6A at 1.8V out from 5V in.
Does the POK output require an external pull-up resistor?
Yes - POK is open-drain and must be pulled up to a valid logic-high voltage (e.g., VOUT or system 3.3V rail) via a 10kΩ resistor. Without pull-up, the signal remains floating and cannot assert HIGH to indicate valid regulation.
