Product details
Overview
MP4575GF-P from Monolithic Power Systems is a fully integrated, synchronous step-down DC/DC converter with internal 90mΩ high-side and 70mΩ low-side MOSFETs, delivering up to 5A continuous output current across a 4.5V–55V input range. It employs peak-current-mode control, supports programmable switching frequency (400–640 kHz), and integrates OCP with valley current detection, OVP, thermal shutdown, and power-good indication - optimized for PoE-powered industrial systems and automotive DC bus supplies.
For engineers reviewing the MP4575GF-P datasheet, MP4575GF-P pinout, MP4575GF-P application, or MP4575GF-P equivalent, key selection criteria include its wide VIN range, internal MOSFET RDS(on) values, frequency-programmability via FREQ pin, valley-based OCP architecture, and BIAS-supplied VDD regulation for improved light-load efficiency.
Technical Context
The MP4575GF-P uses peak-current-mode control with an internal error amplifier (transconductance: 380–720 µA/V) and a programmable oscillator set by an external resistor on FREQ. Its PWM cycle initiates on internal clock edges, with minimum on/off times of 90 ns and 100 ns respectively, and includes automatic frequency scaling below 0.8V COMP voltage to reduce switching loss at light load.
It implements dual-stage over-voltage protection: soft shutdown at 108–122% VFB and hard latch at >110% VFB; OCP combines cycle-by-cycle peak limiting (5.5–11 A) with valley current detection to prevent runaway during short-circuit events; BIAS pin enables optional 5V external supply to raise VDD to 4.8V and improve thermal performance under high load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5V to 55V - supports direct connection to PoE+ (57V), automotive battery (12V/24V/48V), and industrial DC bus rails without pre-regulation. |
| Output Current | 5A continuous - sustained at full load with TSSOP-20 EP package and exposed pad thermal path (θJA = 45°C/W). |
| Switching Frequency | 400–640 kHz (typ.) - set by external resistor on FREQ pin; scalable down to 5% nominal frequency under light load to maintain efficiency. |
| Internal MOSFETs | 90mΩ HS / 70mΩ LS - enables high-efficiency synchronous operation without external drivers or discrete switches. |
| Feedback Reference | 1.0V ±2% - precision reference used with external resistor divider to set output voltage from 1V to 0.9×VIN. |
| OVP Threshold | 108–122% of VFB - triggers auto-recovery shutdown before output overstress damages downstream circuitry. |
| Power Good Window | 81–94% of VFB - provides accurate sequencing signal with 5% hysteresis for reliable system power monitoring. |
Pinout & Package
The MP4575GF-P is housed in a thermally enhanced TSSOP-20 EP package with exposed pad (pins 13, 14, 15, and exposed pad tied to GND), supporting high-power dissipation in compact industrial and automotive layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 COMP | Error amplifier compensation node | Connects external RC network to stabilize loop response; sets bandwidth and phase margin for transient performance. |
| 2 FB | Output voltage feedback input | Senses divided output voltage; compares to 1.0V reference to regulate VOUT with ±2% accuracy. |
| 3 FREQ | Frequency programming / SYNC input | Resistor-to-GND sets fSW; accepts external 100–1000 kHz clock for system-level synchronization. |
| 4 EN | Enable control input | Active-high logic (1.4–1.8V threshold); no internal pull-up - requires defined drive to avoid floating state. |
| 5 BST | Bootstrap supply for high-side driver | Connects 0.1µF capacitor to SW; powers floating gate driver; regulated to 4.2V internally. |
| 6,7,8 VIN | Main input power supply | Accepts 4.5–55V; powers internal regulator, VDD, and high-side switch; requires local ceramic decoupling. |
| 9,12 NC | No connection | Must remain unconnected; no internal circuitry attached. |
| 10,11 SW | Switch node | Drives external inductor; connects to BST capacitor; carries high di/dt - layout critical for EMI control. |
| 13,14,15, EP | Power ground | Primary return path for high-side/low-side MOSFET currents; exposed pad must be soldered for thermal performance. |
| 16 VDD | Driver and bootstrap supply rail | Internally regulated to 3.6V (from VIN) or 4.8V (from BIAS ≥5.4V); powers gate drivers and BST charging circuit. |
| 17 BIAS | Optional auxiliary supply input | When connected to 3.3–5.5V, powers internal circuits directly - reduces power loss and improves thermal headroom. |
| 18 PG | Open-drain power-good indicator | Asserts high after VOUT reaches 90% of target; pulls low if VOUT drops below 85% - enables safe system sequencing. |
| 19 SS | External soft-start timing node | Charged by 4µA current; overrides internal reference during startup to limit inrush; supports adjustable tSS. |
| 20 AGND | Analog ground reference | Separate ground for error amplifier and feedback circuitry; must be routed away from power ground noise. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable switching frequency | Set via single resistor on FREQ pin (400–640 kHz typical); enables EMI optimization and avoids sensitive frequency bands. |
| Valley-current-detection OCP | Detects inductor valley current to prevent runaway during output short - reduces thermal stress and improves fault recovery. |
| BIAS-supplied VDD regulation | Accepts external 3.3–5.5V on BIAS pin to raise VDD to 4.8V, lowering driver losses and improving efficiency above 2A load. |
| Auto-frequency scaling | Reduces fSW proportionally as VCOMP falls below 0.8V - cuts switching loss at light load while maintaining regulation. |
| Two-stage over-voltage protection | Soft shutdown at 108–122% VFB; hard latch at >110% VFB with PG assertion - prevents damage during feedback fault or divider failure. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM5164QPWPRQ1 | 4.5–65V input, 3.5A, requires external MOSFETs; no integrated low-side switch; fixed 500kHz or sync-capable oscillator. | Lacks integrated low-side FET - needs external driver and MOSFET; higher BOM cost but supports higher VIN and custom gate drive tuning. | Select when >55V input or discrete gate control is required; not drop-in due to different pinout and external component dependencies. |
| TPS54560BQDDARQ1 | 3.5–60V input, 5A, integrated FETs; fixed 500kHz or sync-capable; no valley-current OCP - uses cycle-by-cycle only. | Lower RDS(on) (60mΩ HS/40mΩ LS) but lacks valley-current detection; less robust under sustained short-circuit conditions. | Prefer for cost-sensitive automotive apps where short-circuit duration is limited; verify thermal design without valley-OCP derating. |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable input voltage for MP4575GF-P?
The absolute maximum input voltage is 60V, but the recommended operating range is 4.5V to 55V. Exceeding 55V risks violating the 60V absolute rating under transient conditions, and the internal UVLO (rising threshold 3.7–4.1V) ensures safe startup only within spec. Operation above 55V may cause premature device failure even if below 60V due to internal stress margins.
Can MP4575GF-P operate without connecting the BIAS pin?
Yes - BIAS can be left floating or tied to GND. In that case, VDD is regulated to 3.6V from VIN, and internal circuitry is powered by a 2.5V regulator sourced from VIN. However, connecting BIAS to a clean 5V source raises VDD to 4.8V, reducing driver losses and improving thermal performance above 2A load - especially beneficial in sealed enclosures.
How does the valley-current OCP function differ from standard cycle-by-cycle limiting?
Valley-current OCP monitors inductor current at the end of each switching cycle. If the valley current exceeds a threshold (scaled with FB voltage), the HS-FET remains off until current drops further - preventing runaway during sustained overload or short-circuit. Standard cycle-by-cycle only limits peak current per pulse and cannot prevent sub-harmonic oscillation or thermal runaway under low-duty-cycle faults.
Is the MP4575GF-P pin-compatible with other MP4575 variants like MP4575GQ-Z?
No - MP4575GF-P uses TSSOP-20 EP packaging, while MP4575GQ-Z is in QFN-20 EP. Though electrically identical, the packages differ in footprint, thermal pad layout, and pin pitch (0.65mm vs. 0.5mm). PCB redesign and requalification are required for substitution; thermal performance also differs due to distinct θJA (45°C/W vs. 30°C/W).
What is the minimum external soft-start capacitor value needed for reliable startup?
A minimum 1nF capacitor on SS yields ~1ms soft-start time (using ISS = 4µA and VREF = 1V). For longer delays (e.g., 10ms), use 10nF. The internal 500µs soft-start is overridden only if the external time exceeds it. Below 1nF, startup may become erratic due to insufficient charge time and noise susceptibility on the SS node.
Does MP4575GF-P support forced PWM mode at light load?
No - it operates exclusively in auto-frequency-scaling mode (also called "pulse-skipping" or "burst mode") at light load. There is no pin or register to force continuous conduction mode (CCM). This design prioritizes light-load efficiency over output ripple; users requiring low-noise CCM must add external post-regulation or select a different controller.
How is thermal shutdown triggered and recovered?
Thermal shutdown activates at TJ ≈ 170°C (typ.), latching off both MOSFETs and asserting PG low. Recovery occurs automatically when junction temperature falls to ≈160°C (10°C hysteresis). The exposed pad must be soldered to a thermal plane; θJA = 45°C/W assumes JEDEC 4-layer board - inadequate copper will trigger shutdown well below 5A continuous load.
