Product details
Overview
MP3307GJ-P from Monolithic Power Systems is a non-synchronous white LED step-up driver in TSOT23-8 package, operating from 2.7V–5.5V input with 24V open-load protection, 200mV ±1% feedback reference, and programmable switching frequency up to 2.2MHz. It supports dual dimming (analog via PWMH, PWM via EN/PWML) and delivers precise current regulation for multi-string WLED backlighting in compact displays.
For engineers reviewing the MP3307GJ-P datasheet, MP3307GJ-P pinout, MP3307GJ-P application, or MP3307GJ-P equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.2MHz FSW programmability, 24V OVP threshold, cycle-by-cycle over-current limit (1.6A), thermal shutdown at 150°C, and dual-dimming interface compatibility with display timing controllers.
Technical Context
The MP3307GJ-P uses peak-current-mode control with internal ramp compensation to stabilize operation above 50% duty cycle. Its error amplifier compares FB voltage against a trimmed 200mV reference, driving a low-side N-channel MOSFET (RDSON = 0.3–0.5Ω) to regulate LED current through an external sense resistor.
Protection logic integrates independent comparators for OVP (24V threshold with 2V hysteresis), UVLO (2.5V rising, 200mV hysteresis), and thermal shutdown (150°C trip, 25°C hysteresis), all triggering immediate shutdown without latch. Dimming is decoupled: EN/PWML accepts 100Hz–2kHz PWM for digital brightness control, while PWMH accepts >20kHz signals for analog dimming via internal RC filtering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion and USB-powered systems without LDO pre-regulation. |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 200mV ±1% - enables high-accuracy LED current setting with minimal sense resistor power loss (e.g., 20mA @ 10Ω). |
| Switching Frequency | Programmable up to 2.2MHz - allows small external inductors (e.g., 3.3µH) and avoids AM radio band interference. |
| OVP Threshold | 24V (22.5–25.5V range) - protects against LED string open-circuit failure in 3s–6s configurations. |
| Cycle-by-Cycle Current Limit | 1.6A - prevents MOSFET overstress during startup or shorted LED conditions. |
| Thermal Shutdown | 150°C with 25°C hysteresis - ensures safe operation under sustained high-power backlight loads in confined PCB areas. |
| Quiescent Current | 440µA - minimizes standby power draw in always-on display subsystems. |
Pinout & Package
MP3307GJ-P is housed in a thermally enhanced TSOT23-8 package (0.65mm pitch, 2.9mm × 1.6mm footprint), optimized for space-constrained display backlight designs with exposed pad for improved heat dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 SW | Power switch node | Drain of internal low-side MOSFET; connects directly to inductor and VIN bypass capacitor - forms high-di/dt switching loop requiring tight layout. |
| 2 OVP | Over-voltage sensing input | Monitors output voltage via resistive divider; triggers shutdown when VOUT ≥24V - must be decoupled with ≤10pF capacitor to suppress noise false trips. |
| 3 GND | Power and signal ground | Common return for FB, FREQ, EN/PWML, PWMH, and internal circuitry - requires low-impedance connection to thermal pad and input/output capacitors. |
| 4 FB | Current-sense feedback | Regulates voltage across external sense resistor to 200mV - determines LED current (ILED = 0.2V / RSENSE); sensitive to PCB trace noise. |
| 5 FREQ | Frequency programming | Connects to GND via resistor (e.g., 51kΩ → 2.22MHz); floating state disables switching - no internal pull-down. |
| 6 EN/PWML | Enable / PWM dimming input | Active-high enable; accepts 100Hz–2kHz PWM for digital dimming; low pulse >20ms forces shutdown - serves dual function with no mode select pin. |
| 7 PWMH | Analog dimming input | Accepts >20kHz PWM for analog dimming via internal RC filter; duty cycle directly scales ILED - isolated from EN logic to prevent conflict. |
| 8 VIN | Input supply | 2.7V–5.5V power input; powers internal logic and gate driver - requires local 4.7µF ceramic bypass within 2mm of pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent dimming interfaces | EN/PWML (100Hz–2kHz) and PWMH (>20kHz) allow simultaneous hardware/software brightness control without external logic or muxing. |
| 24V open-string protection | Hardware-based OVP comparator with 2V hysteresis prevents uncontrolled output voltage rise during LED string disconnection - no software or external components required. |
| 200mV ±1% reference accuracy | Enables <±2% LED current tolerance across temperature and line variation using standard 1% sense resistors - eliminates need for calibration. |
| Programmable 300kHz–2.2MHz fSW | Resistor-programmed oscillator allows EMI optimization and inductor size reduction while maintaining efficiency >85% at 2.2MHz in typical 3s×4p LED configs. |
| Integrated cycle-by-cycle current limit | 1.6A hard limit protects internal MOSFET during fault conditions without external current-sense amplifiers or fast comparators. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RT8532GSP | Fixed 1.2MHz fSW, 28V OVP, 250mV VREF, no analog dimming input | Lacks dedicated PWMH pin; relies on external RC network for analog dimming - increases BOM count and layout complexity | Choose when fixed frequency simplifies EMI filtering and higher OVP margin (28V) is needed for 7s LED strings. |
| LM3409QMYX/NOPB | Adjustable current limit (0.5–2.5A), 40V OVP, external MOSFET drive, no integrated switch | Requires external high-side N-MOSFET and gate driver - adds cost, footprint, and thermal management overhead | Prefer for high-current (>1A) or high-output-voltage (>30V) applications where MP3307GJ-P's 1.6A limit or 24V OVP is insufficient. |
Compared with RT8532GSP and LM3409QMYX/NOPB, MP3307GJ-P offers integrated switching, dual native dimming inputs, and tighter VREF accuracy - delivering lower system cost and smaller footprint for mid-power (≤500mA) display backlighting below 24V.

FAQ
What is the minimum recommended inductor value for MP3307GJ-P at 2.2MHz?
The minimum inductor value depends on input/output voltage, LED current, and efficiency. For a typical 3.6V input → 12V output, 200mA load, and 88% efficiency, Equation (4) yields ≥2.1µH. MPS recommends 3.3µH (e.g., Coilcraft XAL5030-332MEB) to ensure continuous conduction mode and margin against saturation at 1.6A peak current.
Can EN/PWML and PWMH be driven simultaneously without conflict?
Yes - EN/PWML controls enable/disable and digital dimming, while PWMH handles analog dimming via internal RC filtering. The IC internally prioritizes EN/PWML for shutdown (≥20ms low pulse), but PWMH remains active during normal operation. No external arbitration is needed.
How does the 24V OVP protect against transient overvoltage events?
The OVP circuit continuously monitors VOUT via the OVP pin using a resistive divider. When the divided voltage exceeds the 24V threshold (22.5–25.5V), the internal comparator disables the power switch immediately. Recovery occurs only after VOUT drops below the hysteresis point (22V), preventing oscillation during marginal faults.
Is the 200mV feedback reference internally trimmed across temperature?
Yes - the 200mV reference is laser-trimmed at room temperature and specified to maintain ±1% accuracy from –40°C to +125°C. This eliminates need for external calibration and ensures LED current stability across automotive and industrial temperature ranges.
What is the maximum allowable voltage on the FREQ pin?
The FREQ pin is rated for –0.3V to +6V per Absolute Maximum Ratings. However, it must be connected to GND via a resistor (30kΩ–200kΩ) for proper oscillator operation. Leaving FREQ floating disables switching; applying voltage >0.3V may cause undefined frequency behavior or increased quiescent current.
Does MP3307GJ-P support spread-spectrum frequency modulation?
No - the MP3307GJ-P uses a fixed-frequency, resistor-programmed oscillator without spread-spectrum capability. EMI reduction is achieved via programmable high-frequency operation (up to 2.2MHz), which pushes noise energy beyond sensitive bands and allows smaller passive filters.
How does thermal shutdown interact with the soft-start sequence?
Thermal shutdown overrides soft-start. If die temperature exceeds 150°C during startup, the IC halts soft-start progression and enters shutdown. After cooling below 125°C (150°C – 25°C hysteresis), it restarts soft-start from the beginning - ensuring safe re-entry without current surge.
