Product details
Overview
MP2141NGTF-P from Monolithic Power Systems is a synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with integrated 120mΩ P-channel and 80mΩ N-channel MOSFETs, delivering up to 1A continuous output current across a 2.3V–5.5V input range while regulating output down to 0.6V. It features constant-on-time control, 11μA quiescent current, and operates in SOT563 package for space-constrained portable power rails.
For engineers reviewing the MP2141NGTF-P datasheet, MP2141NGTF-P pinout, MP2141NGTF-P application, or MP2141NGTF-P equivalent, key selection criteria include ultra-low IQ for battery longevity, 2.2MHz switching frequency for compact filter design, EN-controlled sequencing, output discharge capability, and thermal/short-circuit protection with hiccup recovery.
Technical Context
The MP2141NGTF-P uses constant-on-time (COT) control with input voltage feed-forward to maintain stable switching frequency across input and load variations. Its internal high-side P-MOSFET and low-side N-MOSFET enable synchronous rectification without external diodes.
Sleep mode engages at light loads by disabling non-essential blocks while retaining error amplifier and PWM comparator operation, reducing supply current to 11μA. Zero-current detection (ZCD) ensures discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) during light-load operation, improving efficiency and minimizing output ripple.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.3V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, Li-polymer, and multi-cell alkaline/NiMH battery inputs. |
| Output Current | Up to 1A continuous - sufficient for powering core logic, RF transceivers, or sensor subsystems in portable devices. |
| Quiescent Current | 11μA - enables >1-year battery life in always-on IoT sensors with 200mAh coin cells. |
| Switching Frequency | 2.2MHz typical - allows use of sub-2mm × 2mm inductors and reduces EMI filtering footprint. |
| Feedback Reference | 600mV ±6mV - sets precise output regulation via external resistor divider; supports adjustable outputs from 0.6V. |
| MOSFET RDS(on) | P-FET: 120mΩ / N-FET: 80mΩ - minimizes conduction loss at 1A, enabling >90% peak efficiency at mid-load. |
| Protection Features | Cycle-by-cycle current limiting, thermal shutdown (160°C), short-circuit hiccup mode - prevents damage during fault conditions without external circuitry. |
Pinout & Package
SOT563 package: 1.6mm × 1.6mm × 0.55mm body, 6-pin ultra-small outline with exposed pad for thermal enhancement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 FB/PG | Feedback input / Power Good output | FB: Sets output voltage via resistor divider; PG: Open-drain indicator (fixed versions only) signals VOUT within ±5% regulation window. |
| 2 GND | Power ground reference | Primary return path for VIN, SW, and OUT currents; must be connected to low-impedance PCB ground plane. |
| 3 VIN | Main input supply rail | Accepts 2.3V–5.5V unregulated input; requires local 10μF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 4 SW | Switch node | Drain of internal high-side P-MOSFET; connects directly to inductor; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout and isolation from sensitive analog traces. |
| 5 EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic input (1.2V threshold); internal 1MΩ pulldown allows floating-disable; initiates soft-start on assertion. |
| 6 OUT | Regulated output power rail | Delivers regulated VOUT to load; includes internal discharge FET activated during shutdown to rapidly deplete output capacitance. |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TI TPS62231DRYR | 1.8V fixed output only; 2.25MHz switching; 17μA IQ; no output discharge. | Lacks adjustable output and discharge function; requires external discharge circuit for safe shutdown. | Select when fixed 1.8V output suffices and board space permits discrete discharge FET. |
| Analog Devices ADP5062ACBZ-1-R7 | 1.2V fixed output; 2.5MHz; 25μA IQ; integrated LDO post-regulator. | Higher IQ and fixed VOUT limit flexibility; LDO adds noise rejection but reduces efficiency. | Choose when ultra-low output ripple (<10mV p-p) is prioritized over efficiency and adjustability. |

FAQ
What is the minimum output voltage achievable with MP2141NGTF-P?
The MP2141NGTF-P supports output voltages as low as 0.6V, set by the internal 600mV feedback reference and an external resistor divider. This enables direct powering of modern ultra-low-voltage cores such as ARM Cortex-M0+ or RISC-V processors requiring sub-1V supplies.
Does MP2141NGTF-P require external compensation components?
No. The constant-on-time (COT) control architecture eliminates the need for external compensation networks. Stability is inherently achieved across input voltage and load ranges, simplifying design and reducing bill-of-materials cost.
How does the output discharge function operate during shutdown?
When the EN pin is pulled low, the internal discharge FET activates between OUT and GND, providing a ~1kΩ resistive path. This safely discharges output capacitors within milliseconds, preventing residual voltage from interfering with system reset or back-powering downstream logic.
Can MP2141NGTF-P operate with ceramic output capacitors only?
Yes. The device is optimized for low-ESR ceramic capacitors and remains stable with standard X5R/X7R types. A 10μF output capacitor is recommended; higher values improve ripple suppression but do not affect loop stability due to COT control.
What thermal performance can be expected in SOT563 package at 1A load?
In a standard 2-layer PCB layout, the SOT563 package delivers θJA = 130°C/W. At 1A output with 3.6V input and 1.2V output, power dissipation is ~250mW, resulting in ~32°C junction-to-ambient rise - well within the 125°C max operating junction temperature.
Is MP2141NGTF-P compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes. The SOT563 package is rated for JEDEC-standard lead-free reflow profiles, with a maximum peak temperature of 260°C. The device is fully RoHS-compliant, halogen-free, and qualified per JESD22-A110 reliability testing.
