Product details
Overview
SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 from Vishay Siliconix is a monolithic 3 A synchronous buck regulator with integrated high-side (85 mΩ) and low-side (55 mΩ) MOSFETs, operating at a fixed 600 kHz switching frequency across 4.5 V–15 V input to deliver adjustable output down to 0.6 V. It employs current-mode constant-on-time (CM-COT) control for ultrafast transient response in graphics card VRMs and notebook CPU core supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 datasheet, SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 pinout, SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 application, or SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated compensation, 2.2 ms soft-start, cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection, power-good signaling, and thermal pad-enabled DFN10-33C package for high-power-density DC/DC conversion.
Technical Context
The SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 implements a current-mode COT architecture where inductor valley current sensing (via RDS(on)) generates a voltage ramp compared against the error amplifier output to trigger fixed on-time pulses. This eliminates external loop compensation and ESR-dependent bulk capacitance requirements.
Its control logic integrates UVLO (2.8 V rising threshold), OTP shutdown at 145 °C with 35 °C hysteresis, and pre-bias startup protection. The PGOOD open-drain output asserts after VOUT reaches 95% of target and remains valid during undervoltage events.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Input voltage range | 4.5 V to 15 V - supports 5 V, 12 V, and 15 V intermediate bus rails without external regulators |
| Output voltage range | 0.6 V to 5.5 V - programmable via resistor divider; 0.6 V reference enables modern low-voltage SoC core supplies |
| Continuous output current | 3 A - sustained delivery with thermal pad-assisted dissipation in DFN10-33C package |
| Switching frequency | 600 kHz - fixed frequency enables predictable EMI filtering and inductor selection |
| Feedback reference voltage | 600 mV ±12 mV - tight tolerance ensures <±1% output regulation accuracy across temperature |
| Shutdown current | <5 μA typical - enables ultra-low quiescent power in system standby modes |
| Power good threshold | Rising: 95% VOUT, Falling: −10% VOUT - provides robust sequencing margin for downstream logic |
Pinout & Package
The SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 is housed in a lead-free 3 mm × 3 mm × 0.9 mm DFN10-33C package with an exposed thermal pad (AGND) on the bottom for enhanced heat transfer to PCB copper.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 FB | Feedback input | 0.6 V reference node; connects to resistor divider between VOUT and PGND to set output voltage |
| 2 VCC | Internal bias supply | Regulated 5 V output powering internal circuitry; decoupling required near pin |
| 3 VIN | Main power input | 4.5–15 V rail connection; high di/dt path requiring low-inductance ceramic capacitors |
| 4,5 PGND | Power ground return | Low-impedance return for high-current switching paths; must be connected directly to thermal pad |
| 6,7 LX | Switching node | Connection point for output inductor; carries full AC ripple current and high dv/dt transients |
| 8 BOOT | Bootstrap supply | Connects ≥100 nF capacitor to LX to generate floating gate drive voltage for high-side MOSFET |
| 9 PGOOD | Power-good indicator | Open-drain output asserting when VOUT is within ±5% of target; requires external pull-up |
| 10 EN | Enable control | Logic-level input: >1.5 V enables regulator; <0.4 V disables; must not float |
| Pad AGND | Analog ground / thermal slug | Primary thermal path to PCB; electrically tied to analog ground and must be soldered to solid copper pour |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MP2315GJ-Z | 4.5–28 V input, 3 A, 500 kHz, no integrated compensation - requires external RC network | Wider VIN range suits industrial 24 V systems; lacks PGOOD and tighter VFB tolerance | Choose MP2315GJ-Z only if 24 V input compatibility is required and board area allows compensation components |
| TPS54332DDAR | 3.5–28 V input, 3 A, adjustable frequency (100–2500 kHz), external MOSFETs - higher layout complexity | Supports higher VIN and custom frequency tuning but increases component count and thermal management effort | Select TPS54332DDAR when design requires >15 V input or precise frequency synchronization with other converters |
Compared with MP2315GJ-Z and TPS54332DDAR, SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 delivers lower system-level BOM cost and smaller footprint through monolithic integration, fixed 600 kHz operation, and elimination of external compensation - critical for space-constrained consumer electronics.

FAQ
What is the recommended input capacitor configuration for SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4?
The SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 requires low-ESR ceramic input capacitors placed close to VIN and PGND pins. A combination of one 10 μF (1210) and two 10 nF (0402) capacitors is validated per Vishay's reference design. This minimizes high-frequency input ripple and reduces stress on the internal MOSFETs during switching transitions. Layout guidelines emphasize short, wide traces between VIN, PGND, and the capacitors to suppress noise coupling into the LX node.
Does SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 support pre-bias startup?
Yes, SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 supports pre-bias startup. Its control logic monitors the FB pin voltage during enable assertion; if the sensed voltage exceeds the internal reference ramp value, both high-side and low-side FETs remain off to prevent negative output voltage spikes caused by low-side FET conduction into a pre-charged output rail. This feature is confirmed in the Operational Description section of the official datasheet (Rev. D, p.10).
What is the thermal resistance (RθJA) of SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 in standard PCB layout?
The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 is 36.3 °C/W under standard JEDEC 2-layer board conditions (2 oz copper, 1 in² thermal pad). This value assumes proper soldering of the exposed AGND thermal pad to a solid copper pour with ≥6 thermal vias. Performance improves significantly with multilayer boards and larger copper areas, enabling continuous 3 A operation at ambient temperatures up to +85 °C.
Can SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 operate with an output voltage below 0.6 V?
No, SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 cannot regulate below 0.6 V. Its internal feedback reference is fixed at 600 mV ±12 mV (typ./max), and the datasheet specifies 0.6 V as the absolute minimum output voltage. Attempting to set lower outputs via external resistor scaling violates the reference accuracy specification and results in unstable regulation or failure to reach target voltage due to comparator offset limitations.
How does the cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection work in SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4?
SiP12116DMP-T1-GE4 implements valley-current sensing via RDS(on) of the low-side MOSFET during its on-time. After a blanking period, the sensed valley current is compared to a fixed 4.25 A (typ.) threshold. If exceeded, the high-side FET pulse is skipped and the low-side FET remains on until current falls below the limit. This mechanism activates immediately after VIN exceeds UVLO and EN is asserted, providing instantaneous protection without delay.
