Product details
Overview
MP28114DG-LF-P from Monolithic Power Systems is a 1.7MHz constant-frequency, current-mode synchronous step-down DC/DC converter optimized for single-cell Li+-battery-powered portable devices. It delivers up to 600mA load current from 2.5V–6V input, regulates output down to 0.6V, integrates PFET/NFET switches, and supports 100% duty-cycle operation for low-dropout applications in space-constrained designs.
For engineers reviewing the MP28114DG-LF-P datasheet, MP28114DG-LF-P pinout, MP28114DG-LF-P application, or MP28114DG-LF-P equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-small 2×2mm QFN8 package, fixed or adjustable output configuration, thermal shutdown threshold at 145°C, <0.1µA shutdown current, and integrated synchronous rectification eliminating external Schottky diodes.
Technical Context
The MP28114DG-LF-P implements slope-compensated current-mode PWM control with a fixed 1.7MHz oscillator, enabling stable regulation and cycle-by-cycle current limiting. Its internal PFET (0.44Ω RDS(on)) and NFET (0.29Ω RDS(on)) switches operate in complementary phases, supporting continuous conduction mode and seamless transition into 100% duty-cycle dropout operation as input voltage approaches output voltage.
Feedback is regulated via a precision 0.600V ±2% reference applied to the FB pin, with external resistor divider programming for adjustable versions. The EN pin provides logic-level enable/disable control with 0.3V–0.96V hysteresis, while short-circuit protection reduces switching frequency and lowers PFET current limit to 0.7A during fault conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 1.7MHz ±25% - Enables use of small 1–10µH inductors and compact ceramic capacitors for high-density PCB layouts. |
| Input Voltage Range | 2.5V to 6V - Matches single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2V) and dual-cell alkaline/nickel-based battery systems. |
| Output Current | 600mA continuous - Sustains full-rated load under worst-case thermal conditions (TA = +85°C, θJA = 80°C/W). |
| Feedback Reference | 0.600V ±2% - Sets output voltage accuracy for adjustable configurations using external resistive divider. |
| Shutdown Current | <0.1µA - Minimizes battery drain in system sleep modes without requiring external power gating. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 145°C trip point - Protects die integrity during sustained overload or poor PCB thermal design. |
| PFET RDS(on) | 0.44Ω - Limits conduction loss at 600mA to ~160mW, critical for efficiency above 3.3V input. |
| Duty Cycle Range | 0–100% - Maintains regulation down to VIN – VOUT ≈ 150mV (at 600mA), extending usable battery life. |
Pinout & Package
The MP28114DG-LF-P is housed in a thermally enhanced 2mm × 2mm QFN-8 package with exposed thermal pad on the underside, requiring connection to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal performance (θJA = 80°C/W, θJC = 16°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SW | Power switch node | Connects to inductor and drains of internal PFET/NFET; carries high di/dt switching current - requires short, low-inductance routing. |
| 2, 3 NC | No connect | Unbonded pins - must remain unconnected per datasheet; no internal circuitry attached. |
| 4 EN | Enable control input | Logic-compatible input: >1.5V enables regulator; <0.3V disables with sub-0.1µA quiescent draw. |
| 5 FB | Feedback sense input | Monitors voltage divider output; internal 0.6V reference sets regulation point for adjustable versions. |
| 6, 8 GND | Ground return | Primary analog and power ground; exposed pad (pin 6/8) must be soldered to large copper area for thermal and EMI control. |
| 7 IN | Input supply | Accepts 2.5–6V; requires local 2.2µF+ ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous rectification | Integrated NFET replaces external Schottky diode, raising light-load efficiency by ≥8% and eliminating reverse recovery losses. |
| 100% duty-cycle operation | Enables LDO-like behavior near battery end-of-discharge, sustaining 1.8V output down to 1.95V input at 600mA. |
| Current-mode control | Provides inherent cycle-by-cycle current limiting and fast transient response (<50µs recovery from 50% load step). |
| Thermal & short-circuit protection | Auto-recovering shutdown at 145°C and frequency/current-limit reduction during output shorts prevent device damage. |
| Ultra-small footprint | 2mm × 2mm QFN8 occupies 4mm² board area - 40% smaller than comparable 3mm × 3mm converters. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS62231DRYR | 3MHz switching frequency, 300mA rated output, 0.6V feedback reference, same 2×2mm DSBGA package. | Lower max current limits use in lower-power MCU cores; higher fSW allows smaller inductors but increases switching loss above 4V input. | Select when board space is tighter than current demand, and input voltage stays >3.0V. |
| RT8059GJ6 | 1.5MHz fSW, 600mA rating, 0.6V reference, 2×2mm QFN6 package with different pinout (no NC pins, shared FB/EN). | QFN6 lacks dedicated SW/GND separation - requires careful layout to avoid noise coupling into feedback path. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for optimal thermal pad grounding and pin isolation. |
Compared with TPS62231DRYR and RT8059GJ6, the MP28114DG-LF-P offers superior thermal performance via its dual-GND and exposed-pad QFN8 layout, higher current capability at low input voltages, and dedicated NC pins that simplify routing of noisy SW traces away from analog nodes.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for 600mA output at 1.8V?
The MP28114DG-LF-P sustains 600mA at 1.8V output down to 2.5V input per datasheet specifications. At this condition, the 100% duty-cycle capability and low RDS(on) values ensure sufficient headroom despite IR drops across internal switches and inductor DCR.
Can the MP28114DG-LF-P be used with an output voltage below 0.6V?
No. The internal feedback reference is fixed at 0.600V ±2%, and the FB pin is designed only for resistive divider configurations yielding VOUT ≥ 0.6V. Attempting sub-0.6V regulation violates the error amplifier's common-mode input range and causes instability.
How does the EN pin behave during partial enable transitions?
The EN pin has 55mV hysteresis between turn-on (1.5V threshold) and turn-off (0.3V threshold). Input voltages between 0.3V and 1.5V place the device in an undefined state - it may oscillate or latch unpredictably - so clean logic-level drive is mandatory.
Is the exposed thermal pad electrically isolated from internal circuitry?
Yes. The exposed pad is internally connected only to GND. It must be soldered to a PCB ground plane with ≥4 thermal vias (0.3mm diameter) to achieve specified θJA = 80°C/W and prevent thermal shutdown under full load.
What happens during output short-circuit events?
Upon short detection, the MP28114DG-LF-P reduces switching frequency and lowers PFET current limit to ~0.7A. This limits fault current and power dissipation. Recovery occurs automatically once the short is removed and FB voltage rises above 0.6V.
Does the MP28114DG-LF-P support forced PWM mode at light loads?
No. The device operates exclusively in PWM mode across all load conditions - there is no pulse-skipping or PFM mode. This ensures constant 1.7MHz switching frequency, predictable EMI profile, and consistent transient response from zero to full load.
