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) Measured on JESD51-7, 4-layer PCB.

Pull PHASE high to be in-phase. Pull PHASE low to be 180° out-of-phase. Input supply. VIN supplies power to all of the internal control circuitries and the power switch connected to SW. Place a decoupling capacitor to ground close to VIN to minimize switching spikes. Switch node. SW is the output of the internal power switch. Power ground. PGND is the reference ground of the power device and requires careful consideration during PCB layout. For best results, connect PGND with copper pours and vias. Enable. Pull EN below the specified threshold to shut the chip down. Pull EN above the specified threshold to enable the chip. Synchronize. Apply a 350kHz to 2.5MHz clock signal to SYNC to synchronize the internal oscillator frequency to the external clock. The external clock should be at least 250kHz larger than the RFREQ set frequency. SYNC can also be used to select forced CCM or AAM. Drive SYNC high before the chip starts up to choose forced CCM; drive SYNC low or leave SYNC floating to choose AAM. Power good output. The output of PG is an open drain. Bias input. Connect BIAS to an external power supply (5V ≤ VBIAS ≤ 18V) to reduce power dissipation and increase efficiency. If not in use, float BIAS or connect BIAS to ground. Bootstrap. BST is the positive power supply for the high-side MOSFET driver connected to SW. Connect a bypass capacitor between BST and SW. Bias supply. VCC supplies power to the internal control circuit and gate drivers. A decoupling capacitor (≥1µF) to ground is required close to VCC. Analog ground. AGND is the reference ground of the logic circuit. Soft-start input. Place a capacitor from SS to AGND to set the soft-start period. The MP9840 sources 10µA from SS to the soft-start capacitor during start-up. As the SS voltage rises, the feedback threshold voltage increases to limit inrush current during start-up. Feedback input. Connect FB to the center point of the external resistor divider. The feedback threshold voltage is 0.8V. Place the resistor divider as close to FB as possible. Avoid placing vias on the FB traces. Switching frequency program. Connect a resistor from FREQ to ground to set the switching frequency. www.MonolithicPower.com MPS Proprietary Information. Patent Protected.

The MP9840 provides 3.5A of highly efficient output current with current mode control. The MP9840 features a wide input voltage range, switching frequency programmable from 350kHz to 2.5MHz, external soft start, and precision current limit. Its very low operational quiescent current makes it suitable for batterypowered applications. Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) Control At moderate-to-high output currents, the MP9840 operates in a fixed-frequency, peakcurrent-control mode to regulate the output voltage. A pulse-width modulation (PWM) cycle is initiated by the internal clock. At the rising edge of the clock, the high-side power MOSFET (HS-FET) is turned on and remains on until its current reaches the value set by the COMP voltage (VCOMP). If the current in the HSFET does not reach VCOMP in one PWM period, the HS-FET remains on, saving a turn-off operation. When the high-side power switch is off, the lowside MOSFET (LS-FET) is turned on immediately and remains on until the next cycle begins. For each turn-on and -off in a switching cycle, the HS-FET turns on and off with a minimum on and off time limit. Advanced Asynchronous Mode (AAM) The MP9840 employs advanced asynchronous mode (AAM) functionality to optimize efficiency during light-load or no-load conditions. AAM can be enabled by connecting SYNC to a low level (
