Product details
Overview
MP4655GY-Z from Monolithic Power Systems is a pure single-stage LLC controller for simultaneous LED current and system bus voltage regulation on the secondary side of large LCD TV backlight power supplies. It delivers 180° phase-shifted gate drive signals for external LLC MOSFETs, integrates a dedicated N-channel MOSFET driver for Vsystem regulation, supports both PWM and analog dimming (DC or pulse ADIM), and provides full fault protection including capacitive-mode detection, open/short LED, OVP/OCP, and thermal shutdown. Its SOIC-28 package operates from 9V–35V input.
For engineers reviewing the MP4655GY-Z datasheet, MP4655GY-Z pinout, MP4655GY-Z application, or MP4655GY-Z equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin-level circuit roles, confirmed CC/CV frequency and duty control loops, real-world dimming performance data (≤7 µs IOCP response, ≤8 µs VLED OVP delay), and precise SOIC-28 terminal mapping - all essential for secondary-side LLC LED driver design validation and BOM selection.
Technical Context
The MP4655GY-Z implements dual closed-loop control: a current-mode loop (IFB → ICOMP) regulating LED string current via DIMO-driven dimming MOSFET and an independent voltage-mode loop (VFB → VCOMP) controlling system bus voltage using an extra N-channel MOSFET driven by GATEN. Both loops employ clamped transconductance op-amps (ICOMP/VCOMP saturated at 30–70 µA, clamp range 1.02–2.28 V) to limit operating frequency between 42.5 kHz and 130 kHz.
Capacitive mode protection is implemented via CMODE pin sensing secondary winding polarity reversal, with FTH_CMODE setting a programmable 91 kHz threshold; upon detection, SS capacitor discharge forces frequency increase and potential LLC latch-up. The device uses separate compensation nodes (ICOMP, VCOMP, DCOMP) and dedicated fault-sensing inputs (IOCP/FAULT, VOCP, VLED1/VLED2) to isolate LED and system bus protection domains without shared signal paths.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LLC-based LED current and system voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP4656GY-Z | Same SOIC-28 footprint; adds integrated 5 V LDO for bias supply and removes ADIMP pin - reduces external components but eliminates pulse-mode analog dimming. | Preferred for cost-sensitive designs where only DC ADIM dimming is required and auxiliary 5 V rail simplifies system power tree. | Select MP4656GY-Z when eliminating external VCC LDO and accepting loss of ADIMP flexibility improves BOM efficiency. |
| UCC28064ADRMT | TI dual-phase LLC controller; requires external MCU for LED current regulation and lacks integrated dimming drivers - no DIMO output or ADIM/ADIMP interface. | Suitable for high-power industrial lighting where system voltage regulation dominates and LED dimming is handled separately via PWM microcontroller. | Choose UCC28064ADRMT only when system architecture separates LLC control and LED dimming functions, and board space allows additional ICs. |
Compared with MP4655GY-Z, MP4656GY-Z trades ADIMP dimming capability for integrated bias regulation, while UCC28064ADRMT shifts LED control responsibility to external logic - making MP4655GY-Z uniquely suited for compact, self-contained secondary-side LED+bus regulation in consumer displays.

FAQ
What is the function of the FTH_CMODE pin, and how is its threshold set?
FTH_CMODE sets the capacitive-mode shutdown frequency threshold (91 kHz typical) by sourcing current into an external resistor. When the LLC operating frequency exceeds this threshold during capacitive-mode detection (via CMODE), the IC latches the LLC stage to prevent hard switching. The threshold voltage is fixed at 1.20 V, and the resistor value determines the current and thus the frequency trip point per the datasheet equation.
Can MP4655GY-Z regulate both LED current and system voltage simultaneously without interaction?
Yes. The MP4655GY-Z uses physically separate control paths: LED current is regulated via the IFB → ICOMP → DIMO loop, while system voltage is regulated via VFB → VCOMP → DCOMP → GATEN. Compensation networks are independent, and burst-mode thresholds are defined separately for each loop (e.g., VTH_burst_IFB vs. VTH_burst_VFB), preventing cross-regulation during dimming or load steps.
How does the ADIM and ADIMP dimming interface differ in implementation and performance?
ADIM accepts a 0–2.4 V DC signal to linearly scale LED current from 0–100%; ADIMP accepts a pulse signal (1.8–3.5 V high, ≤0.9 V low) whose duty cycle sets current amplitude. ADIMP enables faster transient response (<10 µs) and higher contrast ratios, while ADIM offers smoother low-frequency dimming. Both share the same IFB reference scaling but require mutually exclusive enablement per datasheet guidance.
What protection features activate during an LED string short-to-ground fault?
During LED short-to-GND, the IFB voltage collapses below 50% of its reference (≈100 mV). If ICOMP saturates under this condition for 1024 switching cycles, the IC triggers LED stage protection, disabling DIMO and asserting IOCP/FAULT high. Concurrently, VLED1/VLED2 differential monitoring detects abnormal voltage imbalance, reinforcing the fault decision without relying solely on IFB.
Is the SOIC-28 package thermally adequate for 2.1 W dissipation in a sealed TV enclosure?
At TA = +25°C, the SOIC-28 package sustains 2.1 W (θJA = 60°C/W), yielding TJ ≈ 150°C - the absolute maximum. In a sealed TV enclosure with TA ≥ 60°C, derating is mandatory. MPS recommends copper pour under the thermal pad, ≥2 oz PCB copper, and at least 4 thermal vias to inner ground planes to maintain TJ ≤ 125°C under full load.
Does MP4655GY-Z support synchronous rectification on the system bus output?
No. MP4655GY-Z controls only the extra N-channel MOSFET for system bus voltage regulation and does not provide gate drive signals for synchronous rectifiers on the LLC secondary. The system bus output (e.g., 13.5 V) is generated via conventional diode rectification (D5/D6 in typical application); SR control must be implemented externally or with a dedicated SR controller.
How is soft-start time calculated, and can it be adjusted independently of operating frequency?
Soft-start time is set by the SS capacitor value: tSS = CSS × 2.4 V / 13 µA. Operating frequency is set by the FSET-to-GND and FSET-to-SS resistors. Since SS charging current is independent of FSET network, soft-start time and frequency can be tuned separately - e.g., 100 nF for 18 ms start-up with 300 kΩ FSET resistor for 100 kHz operation.
