MP9486
100V Input, 1A,
Step-Down Converter
The Future of Analog IC Technology
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP9486 is a high-voltage, step-down,
switching regulator that delivers up to 1A of
continuous current to the load. It integrates a
high-side, high-voltage, power MOSFET with a
current limit of 2.5A, typically. The wide 4.5V to
100V input range accommodates a variety of
step-down applications, making it ideal for
automotive, industry, and lighting applications.
Hysteretic voltage-mode control is employed for
very fast response. MPS’s proprietary feedback
control scheme minimizes the number of
required external components.
The switching frequency can be up to 1MHz,
allowing for small component size. Thermal
shutdown and short-circuit protection (SCP)
provide reliable and fault-tolerant operations. A
170µA quiescent current allows the MP9486 to
be used in battery-powered applications.
The MP9486 is available in a SOIC-8 package
with an exposed pad.

NOTES:
1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
2) 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
produces an excessive die temperature, causing the regulator
to go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal shutdown
circuitry protects the device from permanent damage.
3) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its
operating conditions.
4) Measured on EV9486-N-00A 2-layer 63mmx63mm board.
5) Measured on JESD51-7 4-layer board.

Description
Feedback. FB is the input to the voltage hysteretic comparators. The average FB
voltage is maintained at 200mV by loop regulation.
No connection.
Input supply. VIN supplies power to all of the internal control circuitries, both BST
regulators, and the high-side switch. A decoupling capacitor to ground must be placed
close to VIN to minimize switching spikes.
Bootstrap. BST is the positive power supply for the internal, floating, high-side
MOSFET driver. Connect a bypass capacitor between BST and SW.
Switch node. SW is the output from the high-side switch. A low forward voltage
Schottky rectifier to ground is required. The rectifier must be placed close to SW to
reduce switching spikes.
PWM dimming input. DIM is useful in LED driver applications. Pull DIM below the
specified threshold for dimming off. Pull DIM above the specified threshold for dimming
on. If the dimming function is not needed, such as in common buck applications, then
connect DIM and EN together.
Enable input. Pull EN below the specified threshold to shut down the MP9486. Pull EN
above the specified threshold or leave EN floating to enable the MP9486.
Ground. GND should be placed as close to the output capacitor as possible to avoid the
high-current switch paths. Connect the exposed pad to GND plane for optimal thermal
performance.

MP9486 – 100V INPUT, 1A, STEP-DOWN CONVERTER
OPERATION
Hysteresis Current Control with Adaptive
Threshold Adjustment
The MP9486 operates in a hysteretic voltagecontrol mode to regulate the output voltage. FB
is connected to the tap of a resistor divider,
which determines the output voltage. The
power MOSFET is turned on when the FB
voltage (VFB) drops to 185mV and remains on
until VFB rises to 215mV. The power MOSFET is
turned off when VFB rises to 215mV and
remains off until VFB falls to 185mV. The two
thresholds of 215mV and 185mV are adjusted
adaptively to compensate for all the circuit
delays, so the output voltage is regulated with
an average 200mV value at FB.
Enable (EN) Control
The MP9486 has a dedicated enable control pin
(EN) with positive logic. Its falling threshold is
1.23V, and its rising threshold is 1.55V (320mV
higher).
When floating, EN is pulled up to about 3V by
an internal 2µA current source, so it is enabled.
A current over 2µA is needed to pull EN down.
Floating Driver and Bootstrap Charging
The floating power MOSFET driver is powered
by an external bootstrap capacitor. This floating
driver has its own under-voltage lockout (UVLO)
protection. The UVLO rising threshold is 2.2V
with a threshold of 150mV.
The bootstrap capacitor is charged and
regulated to about 5V by the dedicated internal
bootstrap regulator.
If the internal circuit does not have sufficient
voltage, and the bootstrap capacitor is not
sufficiently charged, extra external circuitry can
be used to ensure that the bootstrap voltage is
in the normal operating region. Refer to the
External Bootstrap Diode section on page 14
for more details.
MP9486 Rev. 1.01
9/26/2018
Under-Voltage Lockout (UVLO)
Under-voltage lockout (UVLO) is implemented
to protect the chip from operating at an
insufficient supply voltage. The UVLO rising
threshold is about 4V, while its falling threshold
is a consistent 3.6V.
Dimming Function for LED Applications
Because the FB reference of the MP9486 is
very low, it is recommended to use the MP9486
for LED drivers by connecting the LED current
sense resistor between FB and GND. In such
applications, the MP9486 uses DIM for dimming.
To achieve dimming, apply a pulse on DIM. The
high level of the pulse should be >1.5V, and the
low level should be 65%) and
very high frequency (close to 1MHz)
applications.
The bootstrap diode can be a low-cost one,
such as IN4148 or BAT54.
PCB Layout Guidelines
Efficient PCB layout is critical for stable
operation. For best results, refer to Figure 3 and
follow the guidelines below.
1. Place the input decoupling capacitor, catch
diode, and the MP9486 (VIN, SW, and
PGND) as close to each other as possible.
2. Keep the power traces very short and fairly
wide, especially for the SW node.
This can help greatly reduce voltage spikes
on the SW node and lower the EMI noise
level.
3. Run the feedback trace as far from the
inductor and noisy power traces (like the
SW node) as possible.
4. Place thermal vias with 15mil barrel
diameter and 40mil pitch (distance between
the centers) under the exposed pad to
improve thermal conduction.
