Product details
Overview
MP2328GTL-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a fully integrated, synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with internal 130mΩ high-side and 60mΩ low-side MOSFETs, delivering up to 2A continuous output current across a 4.5V–28V input range and 0.5V–16V adjustable output. It employs constant-on-time (COT) control for fast transient response and operates at 450kHz nominal switching frequency in an SOT583 package. Used in flat-panel displays and multi-function printers for compact, high-efficiency local regulation.
For engineers reviewing the MP2328GTL-Z datasheet, MP2328GTL-Z pinout, MP2328GTL-Z application, or MP2328GTL-Z equivalent, key selection criteria include its 160µA quiescent current, ±1.5% reference accuracy over temperature, power-good indication, hiccup-mode over-current protection, and tON extension for improved dropout performance under high duty-cycle conditions.
Technical Context
The MP2328GTL-Z implements a COT control architecture that dynamically adjusts on-time based on input and output voltage to maintain stable 450kHz operation across wide VIN/VOUT combinations. Its integrated dual-NMOS power stage eliminates external gate drivers and enables >92% efficiency at 24V→5V/2A.
Internal functional blocks include a bootstrap-regulated floating driver for the high-side switch, valley-current sensing for OCP, open-drain PG with 84–112% VREF window detection, and a 7.5µA SS current source enabling monotonic pre-biased start-up. Thermal shutdown triggers at 150°C with 20°C hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 28V - supports industrial 24V rails and automotive cold-crank margins without external pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 2A continuous - sustains full load across -40°C to +125°C junction temperature with proper PCB thermal design. |
| Switching Frequency | 450kHz typical - enables use of small 10μH inductors and reduces EMI filter size while maintaining CCM down to ~300mA. |
| RDS(ON) | 130mΩ / 60mΩ - minimizes conduction loss in both high- and low-side switches, critical for >92% peak efficiency at 24V→5V. |
| Reference Accuracy | ±1.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures tight output regulation across temperature without external trimming. |
| Quiescent Current | 160µA - enables low standby power in always-on systems such as smart display controllers. |
| PG Threshold Window | 84–112% of VREF - provides robust power-good assertion/deassertion with margin against noise-induced false triggering. |
Pinout & Package
MP2328GTL-Z is housed in a thermally enhanced 8-pin SOT583 package (2.0mm × 2.0mm × 0.55mm), featuring exposed pad for improved thermal dissipation and optimized pin spacing for high-density layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - PG | Open-drain power-good indicator | Pulls low during startup, fault, or disable; requires external pull-up to VOUT for reliable de-assertion when input fails. |
| 2 - VIN | Main input supply rail | Accepts 4.5V–28V; must be decoupled with ≥10μF ceramic near pin; wide trace required for 2A peak currents. |
| 3 - SW | Switch node | Connects to inductor; carries high di/dt; requires short, low-inductance routing and ground plane clearance. |
| 4 - GND | Power and signal reference ground | Primary thermal path; must be connected via multiple vias to inner-layer ground plane for thermal and EMI control. |
| 5 - BST | Bootstrap capacitor connection | Forms floating supply for high-side driver; requires 0.1μF X7R ceramic between BST and SW pins. |
| 6 - EN | Enable control input | Digital logic input (1.2V threshold); max 6V rating; internal 1MΩ pull-down enables automatic start-up with resistor divider. |
| 7 - SS | Soft-start timing node | Charged by 7.5µA internal current source; 22nF sets ~1.5ms ramp time; supports monotonic pre-biased start-up. |
| 8 - FB | Feedback voltage sense | Compares output divider voltage to 500mV reference; 10kΩ+90.9kΩ sets 5V output; 5–50µA divider current balances noise vs. quiescent loss. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant-on-time (COT) control | Enables <10µs load transient recovery without external compensation components, simplifying loop design for varying output capacitance. |
| tON extension | Extends high-side on-time beyond 92% duty cycle to maintain regulation in dropout conditions, reducing minimum input requirement at high VOUT. |
| Hiccup-mode over-current protection | Enters periodic restart cycle upon sustained overload, limiting average power dissipation and preventing thermal runaway during short-circuit events. |
| Pre-biased soft-start | Allows safe startup into powered outputs (e.g., hot-swap systems) by refreshing BST voltage and synchronizing SS ramp with existing VOUT. |
| Power-good (PG) with dual-threshold detection | Asserts only when VOUT is within 84–112% of VREF post-soft-start, eliminating false positives during line transients or light-load droop. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| RT6220BGS | 4.5V–24V input, 2A, 500kHz, but uses voltage-mode PWM (not COT); lacks PG and tON extension. | No built-in power-good signaling; less suitable for systems requiring strict power sequencing or high-duty-cycle operation. | Choose RT6220BGS only if fixed-frequency PWM is preferred and PG/tON features are unnecessary. |
| TPS54202DRCT | 4.5V–28V input, 2A, 450kHz, adaptive COT, but larger 10-pin WSON package; higher 220µA IQ. | Requires more PCB area; higher quiescent current reduces battery runtime in always-on subsystems. | Prefer TPS54202DRCT when integrated current sensing or higher thermal margin (θJA = 42°C/W) justifies larger footprint. |
Compared with RT6220BGS and TPS54202DRCT, MP2328GTL-Z uniquely combines COT control, PG output, tON extension, and ultra-compact SOT583 packaging-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-transient applications where power sequencing and dropout resilience are critical.

FAQ
What is the recommended bootstrap capacitor value and dielectric type for MP2328GTL-Z?
A 0.1µF X7R ceramic capacitor is specified between BST and SW pins. X7R ensures stable capacitance across temperature and voltage, critical for reliable high-side gate drive. Avoid Y5V or Z5U due to excessive capacitance drift, which can cause driver instability or shoot-through.
Can MP2328GTL-Z start up into a pre-biased output voltage?
Yes. The MP2328GTL-Z supports monotonic pre-biased start-up: its internal BST refresh circuit and SS capacitor charging mechanism prevent reverse current flow and ensure controlled VOUT ramp even when the output is initially held at 3.3V or 5V by another source.
How does the power-good (PG) pin behave during thermal shutdown?
During thermal shutdown, the PG pin is actively pulled low within 20µs of junction temperature exceeding 150°C. This provides immediate system-level fault indication, allowing host controllers to initiate graceful shutdown or thermal throttling before device damage occurs.
What is the minimum output voltage achievable with MP2328GTL-Z using the internal reference?
The minimum regulated output is 0.5V, set by the 500mV internal reference and external feedback divider. Lower voltages are not supported - attempting sub-0.5V operation causes the error amplifier to saturate and lose regulation capability.
Does MP2328GTL-Z require external compensation components?
No. The constant-on-time (COT) control architecture eliminates the need for external compensation networks. Loop stability is inherent and independent of output capacitance ESR, simplifying design for varied ceramic capacitor selections across different output voltages.
What is the maximum allowable voltage on the EN pin?
The EN pin must not exceed 6V under any condition. Exceeding this rating risks permanent damage to the internal level-shifter. When pulling EN from VIN >6V, use a resistive divider with values selected to limit EN voltage to ≤6V while maintaining sufficient hysteresis margin above the 1.2V turn-on threshold.
How does hiccup-mode over-current protection recover after a fault?
Upon OCP detection, MP2328GTL-Z disables switching, discharges the SS capacitor, waits ~10ms, then re-attempts soft-start. If the fault persists, it repeats this cycle. Recovery is automatic once the overload is removed and VFB rises above the UV threshold (40–60% of VREF).
