Product details
Overview
MP2182CGTL-P from Monolithic Power Systems is a monolithic synchronous step-down DC-DC converter with integrated 80mΩ high-side P-MOSFET and 40mΩ low-side N-MOSFET, delivering up to 2A continuous output current from 2.5V–5.5V input while regulating output down to 0.6V. It employs constant-on-time (COT) control for fast transient response and includes power good (PG), external soft-start (SS), and hiccup-mode short-circuit protection - deployed in portable instrumentation and battery-powered I/O rails.
For engineers reviewing the MP2182CGTL-P datasheet, MP2182CGTL-P pinout, MP2182CGTL-P application, or MP2182CGTL-P equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.2MHz switching frequency, 21μA quiescent current, 1% FB voltage accuracy, 80/40mΩ internal MOSFET RDS(ON), and SOT583 package thermal performance under 125°C junction operation.
Technical Context
The MP2182CGTL-P uses input-voltage feed-forward COT control to maintain stable 1.2MHz switching across its 2.5V–5.5V input range, with minimum on/off times of 70ns/80ns (at 3.6V) enabling high duty-cycle operation down to 0.6V output. Its AAM (Advanced Asynchronous Modulation) + ZCD (Zero-Current Detection) architecture forces DCM at light load while preserving regulation accuracy.
Fault management includes cycle-by-cycle peak current limiting (3.5A high-side), valley current limiting (2A low-side), VO OVP with 115% threshold and 10% hysteresis, thermal shutdown at 160°C with 30°C hysteresis, and automatic output discharge during disable via 150Ω internal discharge path.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, USB, and 3.3V/5V rail inputs without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 2A continuous - sufficient for powering DSP cores, RF transceivers, or multi-rail PMIC subsystems. |
| Feedback Accuracy | ±1% at 25°C (594–606mV) - ensures tight output regulation critical for low-voltage logic I/O domains. |
| Quiescent Current | 21μA - enables >10-year battery life in always-on sensor nodes or wearable standby modes. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.2MHz - allows use of compact 1μH shielded inductors and reduces EMI filter size in space-constrained PCBs. |
| MOSFET RDS(ON) | 80mΩ (HS) / 40mΩ (LS) - minimizes conduction loss at 2A, supporting >90% efficiency at 3.6VIN/1.2VOUT. |
| Power Good Threshold | 90% VFB rising / 85% VFB falling - provides clean, glitch-free system power sequencing with 80μs delay. |
Pinout & Package
SOT583 is an ultra-small, thermally enhanced 8-pin package (1.6mm × 2.1mm × 0.55mm) with exposed thermal pad, optimized for high-density portable designs requiring minimal board area and efficient heat dissipation into inner copper layers.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 PG | Open-drain power good indicator | Signals valid regulation (VFB ≥90%) to host MCU; requires external 100kΩ–500kΩ pull-up to VOUT or VIN. |
| 2 VIN | Main input supply | Accepts 2.5V–5.5V unregulated source; decoupling capacitor must be placed adjacent to minimize input ripple and EMI. |
| 3 SW | Switching node | Drain of internal high-side P-MOSFET; connects directly to inductor; layout must minimize loop area to reduce radiated noise. |
| 4 GND | Power and signal ground | Primary return path for input/output currents and IC bias; must connect to thermal pad and solid ground plane. |
| 5 EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input (1.2V threshold); internal 2MΩ pulldown enables default-disable behavior for safe power-up. |
| 6 SS | Soft-start timing | 3μA constant-current sink; external capacitor sets ramp time to prevent inrush current and output overshoot. |
| 7 OUT | Output power rail & sense | Delivers regulated output; also serves as local feedback reference point - must be routed close to FB pin. |
| 8 FB | Feedback voltage input | Monitors resistor divider ratio; 600mV reference enables precise output setting (e.g., 1.2V with 100kΩ/100kΩ). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant-On-Time (COT) Control | Enables <10μs load transient recovery without external compensation components - simplifies design for dynamic loads like RF PA bursts. |
| 100% Duty Cycle Capability | Allows dropout operation down to VOUT = VIN – 0.1V - critical for maintaining regulation during brown-out conditions in battery systems. |
| Output Discharge Function | Activates internal 150Ω discharge FET when EN = low - clears residual charge from output caps to meet safety or reset timing requirements. |
| Hiccup-Mode Short-Circuit Protection | Shuts down SW, discharges SS cap, then retries startup - prevents thermal runaway during sustained overload or PCB shorts. |
| Self-Biased PG During No-Power | When VIN/EN are absent, PG pulls to ≤0.7V via internal 300kΩ resistor - enables reliable power-status monitoring in hot-swap or backup-power scenarios. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62865RQYR | Higher 3A rating, 2.5V–5.5V input, but 2.4MHz fSW and no PG pin; 0.6V reference, ±0.5% FB accuracy. | Lacks power good signaling - unsuitable where system-level power sequencing or fault reporting is required. | Select when higher current headroom and tighter FB accuracy outweigh need for PG and lower EMI from 1.2MHz operation. |

FAQ
What is the minimum output voltage achievable with MP2182CGTL-P?
The MP2182CGTL-P regulates output down to 0.6V using its internal 600mV feedback reference and external resistor divider. This enables direct powering of modern low-voltage logic cores (e.g., 0.8V–1.2V FPGA I/O, ARM Cortex-A series), provided external components (inductor, capacitors) are selected per the datasheet's stability guidelines for sub-1V operation.
Does MP2182CGTL-P support forced PWM mode, or is it limited to auto-frequency modulation?
The MP2182CGTL-P does not support forced PWM mode. It operates in automatic mode using COT control with AAM (Advanced Asynchronous Modulation) and ZCD (Zero-Current Detection) to transition between CCM and DCM based on load. At light load, it enters sleep mode with reduced bias currents - no user-selectable PWM-only option exists.
How is the soft-start time calculated for MP2182CGTL-P?
Soft-start time is set by an external capacitor on the SS pin, charged by a 3μA internal current source. For example, a 2.2nF capacitor yields ~733μs ramp time (tSS ≈ CSS × 0.6V / 3μA). The output voltage rises linearly from 0V to target VOUT during this period, preventing inrush current and overshoot in sensitive downstream circuitry.
What thermal derating applies to the 2A output current rating?
The 2A rating is specified at TA = +25°C on a 2-layer EVB (θJA = 58°C/W). At 85°C ambient, maximum continuous output drops to ~1.5A due to thermal limiting; full 2A is sustainable only with adequate PCB copper area, thermal vias to inner planes, or forced airflow. Junction temperature must remain ≤125°C for reliable operation.
Can MP2182CGTL-P safely operate with input voltage below 2.5V?
No - the absolute minimum input is 2.5V per datasheet specifications. Below this, UVLO disables operation (rising threshold = 2.45V typical). Attempting operation at 2.3V may cause erratic switching, failure to regulate, or undefined PG behavior. For sub-2.5V inputs, consider the MP2161 (1.8V–6.0V input range) instead.
Is the PG pin compatible with 1.8V logic systems without level shifting?
Yes - the PG pin is open-drain and can be pulled up to any voltage ≤VIN (max 5.5V). To interface with 1.8V logic, connect a 100kΩ resistor from PG to 1.8V. When active, PG sinks current and pulls to <0.4V (guaranteed at 1mA sink); when inactive, it floats high to 1.8V, meeting standard 1.8V logic 'high' thresholds.
What failure modes trigger hiccup-mode protection?
Hiccup mode activates during sustained overcurrent (e.g., shorted output, failed capacitor) or persistent overvoltage (e.g., feedback resistor open). The device stops switching, discharges the SS capacitor, waits ~5ms, then attempts soft-start again. This cycle repeats until fault clears - protecting MOSFETs, inductor, and input source from thermal damage.
