PIN FUNCTIONS
Pin # 1 2 Name Description NC No Connect. BS Bootstrap (C5). This capacitor is needed to drive the power switch’s gate above the supply voltage. It is connected between SW and BS pins to form a floating supply across the power switch driver. The voltage across C5 is about 5V and is supplied by the internal +5V supply when the SW pin voltage is low. NC No Connect. IN Supply Voltage. The MP2351 operates from a +4.75V to +23V unregulated input. C1 is needed to prevent large voltage spikes from appearing at the input. SW Switch. This connects the inductor to either IN through M1 or to GND through M2. GND Ground. This pin is the voltage reference for the regulated output voltage. For this reason care must be taken in its layout. This node should be placed outside of the D1 to C1 ground path to prevent switching current spikes from inducing voltage noise into the part. FB Feedback. An external resistor divider from the output to GND, tapped to the FB pin sets the output voltage. To prevent current limit run away during a short circuit fault condition the frequency foldback comparator lowers the oscillator frequency when the FB voltage is below 700mV. COMP Compensation. This node is the output of the transconductance error amplifier and the input to the current comparator. Frequency compensation is done at this node by connecting a series R-C to ground. See the compensation section for exact details. EN Enable/UVLO. A voltage greater than 2.62V enables operation. Leave EN unconnected for automatic startup. An Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO) function can be implemented by the addition of a resistor divider from VIN to GND. For complete low current shutdown it’s the EN pin voltage needs to be less than 700mV. SYNC Synchronization Input. This pin is used to synchronize the internal oscillator frequency to an external source. There is an internal 11kΩ pull down resistor to GND, therefore leave SYNC unconnected if unused.

OPERATION
The MP2351 is a current mode regulator. That is, the COMP pin voltage is proportional to the peak inductor current. At the beginning of a cycle: the upper transistor M1 is off; the lower transistor M2 is on; the COMP pin voltage is higher than the current sense amplifier output; and the current comparator’s output is low. The rising edge of the 1.4MHz CLK signal sets the RS Flip-Flop. Its output turns off M2 and turns on M1 thus connecting the SW pin and inductor to the input supply. The increasing inductor current is sensed and amplified by the Current Sense Amplifier. Ramp compensation is summed to Current Sense Amplifier output and compared to the Error Amplifier output by the Current Comparator. When the Current Sense Amplifier plus Slope Compensation signal exceeds the COMP pin voltage, the RS Flip-Flop is reset and the MP2351 reverts to its initial M1 off, M2 on state. If the Current Sense Amplifier plus Slope Compensation signal does not exceed the COMP voltage, then the falling edge of the CLK resets the Flip-Flop. The output of the Error Amplifier integrates the voltage difference between the feedback and the 1.230V bandgap reference. The polarity is such that an FB pin voltage lower than 1.230V increases the COMP pin voltage. Since the COMP pin voltage is proportional to the peak inductor current an increase in its voltage increases current delivered to the output. The lower 10Ω switch ensures that the bootstrap capacitor voltage is charged during light load conditions. External Schottky Diode D1 carries the inductor current when M1 is off.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
COMPONENT SELECTION
Setting the Output Voltage The output voltage is set using a resistive voltage divider from the output voltage to FB pin. The voltage divider divides the output voltage down to the feedback voltage by the ratio:
VFB = VOUT R2 R1 + R2
Choose an inductor that will not saturate under the maximum inductor peak current. The peak inductor current can be calculated by:
ILP = ILOAD + ⎛ VOUT V × ⎜1 − OUT ⎜ 2 × fS × L ⎝ VIN ⎞ ⎟ ⎟ ⎠
Where, ILOAD is the load current. Output Rectifier Diode The output rectifier diode supplies the current to the inductor when the high-side switch is off. To reduce losses due to the diode forward voltage and recovery times, use a Schottky diode. Choose a diode whose maximum reverse voltage rating is greater than the maximum input voltage, and whose current rating is greater than the maximum load current. Input Capacitor The input current to the step-down converter is discontinuous, therefore a capacitor is required to supply the AC current to the step-down converter while maintaining the DC input voltage. Use low ESR capacitors for the best performance. Ceramic capacitors are preferred, but tantalum or low-ESR electrolytic capacitors may also suffice. Since the input capacitor (C1) absorbs the input switching current it requires an adequate ripple current rating. The RMS current in the input capacitor can be estimated by:
I C1 = ILOAD × VOUT ⎛ VOUT ×⎜1− VIN ⎜ VIN ⎝
⎞ ⎟ ⎟ ⎠
Where VFB is the feedback voltage and VOUT is the output voltage. Thus the output voltage is:
VOUT = 1.23 × R1 + R2 R2
R2 can be as high as 100kΩ, but a typical value is 10kΩ. Using that value, R1 is determined by:
R1 = 8.18 × ( VOUT − 1.23)
For example, for a 3.3V output voltage, R2 is 10kΩ, and R1 is 17kΩ. Inductor The inductor is required to supply constant current to the output load while being driven by the switched input voltage. A larger value inductor will result in less ripple current that will result in lower output ripple voltage. However, the larger value inductor will have a larger physical size, higher series resistance, and/or lower saturation current. A good rule for determining the inductance to use is to allow the peak-to-peak ripple current in the inductor to be approximately 30% of the maximum switch current limit. Also, make sure that the peak inductor current is below the maximum switch current limit. The inductance value can be calculated by:
L= ⎛ ⎞ VOUT V × ⎜1 − OUT ⎟ ⎜ fS × ∆IL ⎝ VIN ⎟ ⎠
The worst-case condition occurs at VIN = 2VOUT, where:
IC1 = ILOAD 2
Where VIN is the input voltage, fS is the switching frequency and ∆IL is the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current.
For simplification, choose the input capacitor whose RMS current rating greater than half of the maximum load current.

MP2351 – 1.5A, 23V, 1.4MHz STEP-DOWN CONVERTER The input capacitor can be electrolytic, tantalum or ceramic. When using electrolytic or tantalum capacitors, a small, high quality ceramic capacitor, i.e. 0.1µF, should be placed as close to the IC as possible. When using ceramic capacitors, make sure that they have enough capacitance to provide sufficient charge to prevent excessive voltage ripple at input. The input voltage ripple caused by capacitance can be estimated by:
∆VIN = ⎛ ILOAD V V × OUT × ⎜1 − OUT ⎜ fS × C1 VIN ⎝ VIN ⎞ ⎟ ⎟ ⎠
Compensation Components The MP2351 employs current mode control for easy compensation and fast transient response. The system stability and transient response are controlled through the COMP pin. COMP pin is the output of the internal transconductance error amplifier. A series capacitor-resistor combination sets a pole-zero combination to control the characteristics of the control system. The DC gain of the voltage feedback loop is:
A VDC = R LOAD × G CS × A VEA × VFB VOUT
Output Capacitor The output capacitor is required to maintain the DC output voltage. Ceramic, tantalum, or low ESR electrolytic capacitors are recommended. Low ESR capacitors are preferred to keep the output voltage ripple low. The output voltage ripple can be estimated by:
∆VOUT = VOUT ⎛ V × ⎜1 − OUT ⎜ fS × L ⎝ VIN ⎞ ⎞⎛ 1 ⎟ ⎟ × ⎜ R ESR + ⎟⎜ 8 × f S × C2 ⎟ ⎠⎝ ⎠
Where AVEA is the error amplifier voltage gain, GCS is the current sense transconductance and RLOAD is the load resistor value. The system has two poles of importance. One is due to the compensation capacitor (C3) and the output resistor of error amplifier, and the other is due to the output capacitor and the load resistor. These poles are located at:
fP1 = fP2 = GEA 2π × C3 × A VEA 1 2π × C2 × R LOAD
Where RESR is the equivalent series resistance (ESR) value of the output capacitor and C2 is the output capacitance value. In the case of ceramic capacitors, the impedance at the switching frequency is dominated by the capacitance. The output voltage ripple is mainly caused by the capacitance. For simplification, the output voltage ripple can be estimated by:
∆VOUT = VOUT 8 × fS

Where GEA is transconductance.

⎛ V × ⎜1 − OUT ⎜ VIN × L × C2 ⎝
⎞ ⎟ ⎟ ⎠
The system has one zero of importance, due to the compensation capacitor (C3) and the compensation resistor (R3). This zero is located at:
f Z1 = 1 2π × C3 × R3
In the case of tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the ESR dominates the impedance at the switching frequency. For simplification, the output ripple can be approximated to:
∆VOUT = VOUT ⎛ V ⎞ × ⎜1 − OUT ⎟ × R ESR ⎜ ⎟ fS × L ⎝ VIN ⎠
The system may have another zero of importance, if the output capacitor has a large capacitance and/or a high ESR value. The zero, due to the ESR and capacitance of the output capacitor, is located at:
fESR = 1 2π × C2 × R ESR
The characteristics of the output capacitor also affect the stability of the regulation system. The MP2351 can be optimized for a wide range of capacitance and ESR values.
