Product details
Overview
MP2354DS-LF-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a monolithic 2A, 23V input, 380kHz synchronous step-down DC/DC converter in an 8-pin SOIC package, featuring internal 0.18Ω high-side MOSFET and 10Ω low-side switch, fixed-frequency current-mode control, and thermal shutdown protection. It delivers stable 2A continuous output across 4.75–23V input for battery chargers and distributed power systems.
For engineers reviewing the MP2354DS-LF-Z datasheet, MP2354DS-LF-Z pinout, MP2354DS-LF-Z application, or MP2354DS-LF-Z equivalent, key selection criteria include its 380kHz fixed switching frequency, programmable UVLO via RUN pin, SYNC input for external clock synchronization, and compatibility with low-ESR ceramic output capacitors.
Technical Context
The MP2354DS-LF-Z implements peak current-mode control with slope compensation to stabilize operation above 40% duty cycle and prevent subharmonic oscillation. Its transconductance error amplifier (700μA/V typical) drives the COMP pin, which interfaces directly with the current comparator and supports full-loop compensation via external R-C networks.
It integrates bootstrap circuitry with internal 5V supply for high-side gate drive, requires external Schottky diode for low-loss freewheeling, and uses a dedicated SYNC pin accepting 445–600kHz square-wave inputs with <20ns rise time to force oscillator reset and synchronize switching edges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.75V to 23V - supports wide-input industrial and battery-powered systems without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 2A continuous - sufficient for powering FPGAs, microcontrollers, and peripheral rails in embedded systems. |
| Switching Frequency | 380kHz fixed (±9%) - enables compact magnetics while avoiding AM band interference. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 1.222V ±2.4% - sets output voltage accuracy via external resistor divider; enables 2.5V–12V outputs. |
| High-Side RDS(ON) | 0.18Ω - minimizes conduction loss at full load, supporting >95% efficiency at mid-load conditions. |
| Thermal Shutdown Threshold | 155°C - protects against sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design without latch-off. |
| Shutdown Quiescent Current | 20μA - enables ultra-low-power standby in battery-critical applications. |
Pinout & Package
MP2354DS-LF-Z is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (SOIC8) package with exposed pad not present; θJA = 105°C/W on 1"² 1 oz copper.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SYNC | Synchronization input | Accepts external 445–600kHz square wave to align switching edges; internal 11kΩ pull-down enables default free-running mode. |
| 2 BST | Bootstrap supply node | Connects external 0.1μF ceramic capacitor between BST and LX to generate floating gate drive voltage for high-side MOSFET. |
| 3 VIN | Main power input | Supplies 4.75–23V unregulated input; requires local 10μF ceramic decoupling to suppress high-frequency switching noise. |
| 4 LX | Switch node | Drives external inductor; connects to VIN via high-side switch or GND via low-side switch; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout. |
| 5 GND | Analog and power ground reference | Common return for FB, COMP, RUN, and internal circuits; must be isolated from high-current paths to avoid feedback noise injection. |
| 6 FB | Feedback input | Monitors output voltage via resistive divider; triggers frequency foldback below 700mV during short-circuit events. |
| 7 COMP | Error amplifier output / current comparator input | Interface for loop compensation network (R-C to GND); directly controls peak inductor current and transient response. |
| 8 RUN | Enable and UVLO control | Starts regulation when >2.62V; shuts down below 0.7V; supports programmable UVLO using resistor divider from VIN. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated high- and low-side switches | 0.18Ω high-side + 10Ω low-side MOSFETs eliminate external switch count and simplify BOM for compact designs. |
| Ceramic-capacitor compatible | Stable with low-ESR ceramic output caps (e.g., 22μF X5R/X7R), reducing board area and eliminating electrolytic aging concerns. |
| Programmable UVLO | RUN pin accepts resistor divider from VIN to set custom turn-on threshold, enabling precise brown-in/brown-out control. |
| External clock synchronization | SYNC pin allows deterministic timing alignment across multiple converters, critical for EMI reduction in multi-rail systems. |
| Current-limit foldback under fault | Reduces switching frequency to 35kHz when FB < 700mV, lowering power dissipation during sustained overloads or shorts. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-down converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP2392DJ-LF-Z | Successor device with 4A output, 500kHz switching, improved light-load efficiency, and integrated boot diode; pin-compatible but requires updated compensation. | Supports higher current loads and tighter EMI requirements; not drop-in due to different COMP network values and higher fSW. | Select when upgrading legacy designs for increased power density or regulatory EMI compliance. |
| LM2678SD-5.0/NOPB | TI part with 5A output, 260kHz fSW, external MOSFETs, and different control architecture (voltage-mode); no SYNC or programmable UVLO. | Requires external high- and low-side FETs and more complex compensation; suited for cost-sensitive, non-synchronized 5V-only systems. | Select only if 5V fixed-output and lower BOM cost outweigh need for integration and synchronization capability. |
Compared with MP2354DS-LF-Z, MP2392DJ-LF-Z offers higher current and modern features but mandates layout and compensation updates, while LM2678SD-5.0/NOPB trades integration for flexibility and cost-neither is a direct replacement without design revision.

FAQ
Is MP2354DS-LF-Z still in active production?
No-MP2354DS-LF-Z is officially marked End of Life (EOL) by Monolithic Power Systems, with MP2392 designated as its functional successor. Aetrix Electronics maintains limited legacy stock for last-time buys and design continuity support, but new designs should migrate to MP2392DJ-LF-Z.
What is the maximum achievable output voltage with MP2354DS-LF-Z?
The MP2354DS-LF-Z supports output voltages up to 20V, constrained by the absolute maximum feedback voltage (6V) and practical limits of the external resistor divider. For example, using R2 = 10kΩ and R1 = 154kΩ yields VOUT ≈ 20V (VFB = 1.222V × (1 + 154k/10k)), provided the inductor and output capacitor ratings exceed this level.
Can MP2354DS-LF-Z operate without an external Schottky diode?
No-the MP2354DS-LF-Z lacks a synchronous rectifier low-side MOSFET and relies on an external Schottky diode (e.g., SR22, B230) for freewheeling current path during high-side switch off-time. Omitting it causes catastrophic failure due to inductive kickback and lack of current path.
How does the RUN pin UVLO differ from the EN pin in other buck converters?
The RUN pin combines enable function and adjustable UVLO: rising threshold is 2.5V (typ), hysteresis is 210mV, and pull-up current is 1.3μA (typ). Unlike dedicated EN pins, RUN also sinks current during shutdown (<700mV), enabling precise brown-out recovery and compatibility with RC-based delay circuits for sequencing.
Why does MP2354DS-LF-Z specify two different RDS(ON) values?
It specifies 0.18Ω for the high-side MOSFET (critical for conduction loss during on-time) and 10Ω for the low-side MOSFET (used only for bootstrap capacitor charging during light load and providing a controlled discharge path). The 10Ω value reflects intentional design for gate-drive efficiency-not power handling-and is not used for main current conduction.
What layout guidance applies to the BST and LX pins?
BST and LX form a high dv/dt switching node; the BST capacitor (0.1μF ceramic) must be placed within 2mm of BST and LX pins with minimum loop area. Avoid routing sensitive traces (FB, COMP, RUN) near LX, and use a solid ground plane beneath the IC to contain EMI and stabilize bootstrap coupling.
Does MP2354DS-LF-Z support output voltages below 2.5V?
Yes-though the datasheet highlights 2.5V–12V, the 1.222V feedback reference allows outputs as low as 1.25V using precision resistors (e.g., R2 = 10kΩ, R1 = 200Ω → VOUT ≈ 1.43V). Stability must be verified with ceramic output caps, as low-VOUT designs increase ripple sensitivity and require careful COMP compensation.
