Product details
Overview
MP2349GG-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a fully integrated, synchronous buck converter delivering up to 6.5A continuous output current with 4.5V–24V input range, 700kHz fixed switching frequency, and adaptive constant-on-time (COT) control. It integrates low-RDS(ON) MOSFETs (36mΩ HS / 12mΩ LS), supports mode selection (FCCM/PFM/USM), and targets compact, high-efficiency power rails in space-constrained applications like security cameras and flat-panel displays.
For engineers reviewing the MP2349GG-Z datasheet, MP2349GG-Z pinout, MP2349GG-Z application, or MP2349GG-Z equivalent, key selection considerations include its QFN-11 (2mm×2mm) package footprint, 105μA quiescent current, remote differential sensing capability, DC auto-tune loop for load regulation, and triple-mode operation for optimizing efficiency across light-to-heavy loads.
Technical Context
The MP2349GG-Z implements adaptive COT control with internal ramp compensation, enabling stable regulation with ceramic output capacitors without external compensation. Its valley-current OCP uses the LS-FET's RDS(ON) as a current-sense element, with a 6–9A programmable limit range and automatic retry thermal shutdown at 150°C.
Mode selection is implemented via the MODE pin: >3.2V enables FCCM for ripple-sensitive applications; grounded enables PFM without USM for lowest light-load IQ; floating enables PFM+USM to maintain fSW >20kHz. The DC auto-tune loop dynamically adjusts timing to maintain tight line/load regulation across 4.5V–24V input and 0.6V–13V output ranges.

Pinout & Package
MP2349GG-Z is housed in a thermally enhanced QFN-11 (2mm × 2mm, 0.5mm pitch) package with exposed thermal pad. Pin 1 is marked by a dot; top marking includes "JC" product code, year code "Y", and lot number "LLL".
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VIN | Power input supply | Accepts 4.5V–24V; requires ≥2-layer wide trace + multiple vias to PGND for low-impedance decoupling of high di/dt currents. |
| 2,3,4 PGND | Power ground return | Direct Kelvin connection to internal power FET sources; must be tied to PCB ground plane with minimum 4 vias for thermal and EMI performance. |
| 5 MODE | Operating mode select | Digital input: >3.2V = FCCM; GND = PFM-no-USM; floating = PFM+USM - sets switching behavior without external logic. |
| 6 SW | Power switch node | Connects to inductor and BST capacitor; requires short, wide copper pour to minimize ringing and shoot-through risk during dead-time transitions. |
| 7 BST | Bootstrap supply | Forms floating gate drive for HS-FET; requires 0.1μF X7R ceramic capacitor between SW and BST, placed adjacent to IC. |
| 8 VCC | Internal LDO output | Supplies control logic; requires ≥1μF X7R/X5R ceramic cap placed within 2mm of pin to stabilize gate drivers under transient load. |
| 9 AGND | Signal ground reference | Kelvin sense point for FB and EN; must be routed separately from PGND and connected only at single-point star ground near FB divider. |
| 10 FB | Output voltage feedback | Resistor-divider tap point; trace must avoid SW node coupling; layout sensitivity demands direct routing with no vias or stubs. |
| 11 EN | Enable/disable control | Active-high digital input; internal 1MΩ pull-down; max 4.5V rating; supports automatic start-up via resistor divider from VIN. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adaptive COT control | Eliminates need for external compensation network while maintaining stability with POSCAP/ceramic output caps - reduces BOM count and layout complexity. |
| DC auto-tune loop + remote differential sense | Delivers ±0.5% load regulation over 0–6.5A and ±0.2% line regulation over 4.5–24V input - critical for precision analog or FPGA core rails. |
| Selectable ultrasonic mode (USM) | Maintains fSW >20kHz during light-load PFM operation - prevents audible coil whine in consumer audio/video equipment. |
| Integrated soft-start & output discharge | 1.7ms typical tSS prevents inrush; internal discharge path pulls VOUT to GND when disabled - avoids back-powering downstream circuits. |
| Valley-current OCP with RDS(ON) sensing | Uses internal LS-FET resistance for current monitoring - eliminates external sense resistor, saving area and cost while preserving accuracy. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP2338GQ-Z | Lower IOUT (4A), same 4.5–24V input, 120μA IQ, QFN-10 (3×3mm) | Smaller thermal footprint but higher θJA (90°C/W); less suitable for 6.5A continuous loads | Select when board space allows larger package and peak load <4A; not drop-in due to pinout and current derating. |
| RT7297BZSP | 6A IOUT, 4.5–26V input, 150μA IQ, 600kHz fSW, SOP-8 package | Larger footprint, no USM mode, requires external bootstrap diode and compensation | Choose for cost-sensitive designs where QFN assembly is unavailable; expect ~3% lower efficiency at 3.3V/6A due to higher RDS(ON). |
Compared with MP2349GG-Z, MP2338GQ-Z trades current capability for marginally lower IQ and different package geometry, while RT7297BZSP sacrifices integration density and ultrasonic operation for broader input voltage and mature SOP-8 manufacturability - neither matches the combined 6.5A/QFN-11/USM feature set.

FAQ
What is the recommended inductor for MP2349GG-Z in a 3.3V/6.5A application?
For 3.3V/6.5A operation, MPS recommends the MPL-AL6050-220 or MPL-AL4020-220 series shielded power inductors (2.2μH, ≤3mΩ DCR). These inductors are optimized for the MP2349's 700kHz switching frequency and valley-current OCP algorithm, ensuring stable operation with <10% peak-to-peak inductor current ripple and minimal thermal rise under full load.
Can MP2349GG-Z operate with only ceramic output capacitors?
Yes - the MP2349GG-Z's internal compensation and adaptive COT architecture are specifically validated for stable operation with ceramic output capacitors alone. The datasheet confirms stability with ≥44μF X5R/X7R ceramics (e.g., 4×10μF 0805) and no external type-II or type-III compensation required, reducing component count and PCB area.
How does the MODE pin affect efficiency at light load?
When MODE is grounded (PFM-no-USM), efficiency peaks at ~88% at 10mA load but may produce audible noise below 20kHz. When floated (PFM+USM), efficiency drops ~2–3% at 10mA but maintains fSW >20kHz, eliminating coil whine - a critical trade-off for consumer audio/video products.
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for continuous operation?
The absolute maximum VIN rating is 26V, but the recommended operating maximum is 24V per the datasheet's "Recommended Operating Conditions." Sustained operation above 24V risks exceeding the 26V absolute limit during line transients and may trigger OVP or degrade long-term reliability of internal MOSFETs and gate drivers.
Does MP2349GG-Z support pre-biased output startup?
Yes - the MP2349GG-Z features pre-bias startup protection. If the FB node senses a pre-charged output voltage exceeding the rising internal VREF during startup, the HS- and LS-FETs remain off until VREF ramps above the sensed VOUT, preventing reverse current flow and potential damage to downstream circuitry.
What thermal performance can be expected on a 2-layer PCB?
On a standard 2-layer board (1oz copper, 100mm² thermal pad area), the MP2349GG-Z achieves ~55°C case temperature rise at 6.5A/3.3V (≈85% efficiency). For full-rated continuous current, MPS specifies ≥4-layer construction with internal ground/power planes and ≥4 thermal vias under the exposed pad to meet the 3.6W PD(MAX) limit.
Is there an evaluation board available for MP2349GG-Z?
Yes - the EV2349-G-00A evaluation board is available from MPS and authorized distributors. It implements a 3.3V/6.5A output with recommended layout, component selection (including MPL-AL6050-220 inductor), and test points for SW, FB, and MODE signals - enabling rapid validation of efficiency, transient response, and thermal performance.
