MP8763
High Efficiency, 12A, 18V,
Synchronous, Step-Down Converter
The Future of Analog IC Technology
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP8763 is a fully-integrated, highfrequency, synchronous, rectified, step-down,
switch-mode converter. It offers a very compact
solution to achieve a 12A output current over a
wide input-supply range with excellent load and
line regulation. The MP8763 operates at high
efficiency over a wide output-current load range.
The MP8763 uses Constant-On-Time (COT)
control mode to provide fast transient response
and ease loop stabilization.
An external resistor programs the operating
frequency from 200kHz to 1MHz. The
frequency stays nearly constant as the input
supply
varies
with
the
feed-forward
compensation.
The default under voltage lockout threshold is
internally set at less than 4.1V, but a resistor
network on the enable pin can increase this
threshold. The soft start pin controls the output
voltage startup ramp. An open drain power
good signal indicates that the output is within
nominal voltage range.

Notes:
1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
2) Refer to the section “Configuring the EN Control”.
3) The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the
maximum junction temperature TJ(MAX), the junction-toambient thermal resistance θJA, and the ambient temperature
TA. The maximum allowable continuous power dissipation at
any ambient temperature is calculated by PD(MAX)=(TJ(MAX)TA)/θJA. Exceeding the maximum allowable power dissipation
will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will go
into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal shutdown circuitry
protects the device from permanent damage.
4) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its
operating conditions.
5) Measured on JESD51-7, 4-layer PCB.

Name Description
Enable. Digital input to turn the regulator ON or OFF. Drive EN HIGH to turn on
the regulator. Drive it LOW to turn it off. Connect EN to IN through a pull-up
resistor or a resistive voltage divider for automatic startup. Do not float this pin.
Frequency Set. Requires a resistor connected between FREQ and IN to set the
switching frequency. The input voltage and the resistor connected to the FREQ pin
FREQ
determine the ON time. The connection to the IN pin provides line feed-forward
and stabilizes the frequency during input voltage variation.
Feedback. Connect to the tab of an external resistor divider from the output to
GND to set the output voltage. FB is also configured to realize over-voltage
FB
protection (OVP) by monitoring output voltage. Place the resistor divider as close
to FB pin as possible. Avoid using vias on the FB traces.
Soft-Start. Connect an external capacitor to program the soft start time for the
SS
switch mode regulator.
EN
AGND Analog ground. The control circuit reference.
Power Good, the output is an open drain signal. Require a pull-up resistor to a DC
voltage to indicate high if the output voltage exceeds 91% of the nominal voltage.
There is a delay from FB ≥ 91% to PG goes high.
Internal 4.8V LDO output. Power the driver and control circuits. 5V external bias
can disable the internal LDO. Decoupling with ≥1µF ceramic capacitor as close to
7
VCC
the pin as possible. Use X7R or X5R dielectric ceramic capacitors for their stable
temperature characteristics.
Bootstrap. Require a capacitor connected between SW and BST pins to form a
8
BST
floating supply across the high-side switch driver.
Switch Output. Connect to the inductor and bootstrap capacitor. The high-side
switch drives the pin up to the VIN voltage during PWM duty cycle’s ON time. The
15, 16
SW inductor current drives the SW pin negative during the OFF-time. The low-side
switch’s ON-resistance and the internal Schottky diode clamp the negative
voltage. Connect using wide PCB traces
10,11,12,
System Ground. Reference ground of the regulated output voltage. PCB layout
PGND
13
requires extra care. Connect using wide PCB traces.
Supply Voltage. Supplies power to the internal MOSFET and regulator. The
MP8763 operates from a +2.5V to +18V input rail with 5V external bias and a
9, 14
IN
+4.5V to +18V input rail with internal bias. Requires an input decoupling capacitor.
Connect using wide PCB traces and multiple vias.

MP8763 — 12A, 18V, SYNCHRONOUS STEP-DOWN CONVERTER
OPERATION
PWM Operation
The MP8763 is a fully-integrated, synchronous,
rectified, step-down, switch-mode converter. It
uses constant-on-time (COT) control to provide a
fast transient response and ease loop
stabilization.
At the beginning of each cycle, the high-side
MOSFET (HS-FET) turns ON when the feedback
voltage (VFB) drops below the reference voltage
(VREF), which indicates an insufficient output
voltage. The input voltage and the frequency-set
resistor determine the ON period as follows:
ON (ns)
6.1 R FREQ (k)
VIN ( V ) 0.4
(1)
After the ON period elapses, the HS-FET turns
off. It turns ON again when VFB drops below VREF.
By repeating this operation, the converter
regulates the output voltage. The integrated lowside MOSFET (LS-FET) turns ON when the HSFET is OFF to minimize conduction loss and
avoid a dead short (or shoot-through) between
input and GND if both HS-FET and LS-FET turn
on at the same time. An internally-generated
dead-time (DT) between HS-FET OFF and LSFET ON or LS-FET OFF and HS-FET ON avoids
shoot-through.
In CCM, the switching frequency is fairly constant
and it is also called PWM mode.
Light-Load Operation
As the load decreases, the inductor current
decreases. The operation transitions from CCM
to discontinuous-conduction-mode (DCM) when
the inductor current reaches 0A.
Figure 3 shows light-load operation. When VFB
drops below VREF, HS-FET turns ON for a fixed
interval determined by the one- shot ON-timer as
per equation 1. When the HS-FET turns OFF, the
LS-FET turns ON until the inductor current
reaches zero. In DCM, the VFB does not reach
VREF when the inductor current reaches zero:
Instead, the LS-FET driver enters tri-state (high
Z). A current modulator then controls the LS-FET
and limits the inductor current to less than −1mA.
Hence, the output capacitors discharge slowly to
GND through LS-FET, and the HS-FET doesn’t
turn ON as frequently as under heavy-load
conditions, thus greatly improving light-load and
no-load efficiency. This is called skip mode.
Heavy-Load Operation
Figure 3: Light-Load Operation
As the output current increases from the lightload, the current modulator shortens the
operating period to turn the HS-FET ON more
frequently. Hence, the switching frequency
increases. The output current reaches its critical
threshold when the current modulator time
decreases to zero. Determine the critical output
current level as follows:
Figure 2: Heavy-Load Operation
When the output current is high and the inductor
current is always above zero amps, it is called
continuous-conduction-mode (CCM). Figure 2
shows the CCM operation. When VFB
