MPQ4317
45V, 7A, Low IQ, Synchronous Step-Down
Converter with Frequency Spread Spectrum,
AEC-Q100 Qualified
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MPQ4317 is a configurable-frequency,
synchronous, step-down switching regulator with
integrated internal high-side and low-side power
MOSFETs. It provides up to 7A of highly efficient
output current (IOUT) with current mode control for
fast loop response.
The wide 3.3V to 45V input voltage (VIN) range
accommodates a variety of step-down
applications in automotive input environment. A
1.7μA shutdown mode quiescent current allows
use in battery-powered applications.
High power conversion efficiency across a wide
load range is achieved by scaling down the
switching frequency (fSW) under light-load
conditions to reduce switching and gate driver
losses.
An open-drain power good signal indicates
whether the output is within 95% to 105% of its
nominal voltage.
Frequency foldback helps prevent inductor
current (IL) runaway during start-up. Thermal
shutdown provides reliable, fault-tolerant
operation. High duty cycle and low-dropout
mode are provided for automotive cold-crank
conditions.

Name
Description
AAM or FCCM selection pin. Pull this pin high to make the part operate in forced
continuous conduction mode (FCCM). Pull it low to make it operate in advanced
MODE
asynchronous modulation (AAM) mode under light-load conditions. Do not leave this pin
floating.
SYNC input. Apply a 350kHz to 1000kHz clock signal to this pin to synchronize the
internal oscillator frequency to the external clock. This pin is internally high impedance.
Do not float this pin under any circumstances. If used, ensure that the external sync clock
SYNCIN
has adequate pull-up and pull-down capability. It is recommended to place a ≤51kΩ
resistor between the pin and GND in case the external sync clock pull-down capability is
not strong enough or the pin enters a high-impedance state.
Input supply. VIN supplies power to all of the internal control circuitry and the power
MOSFET connected to SW. It is recommended to place a decoupling capacitor connected
to ground and close to VIN to minimize switching spikes.
PGND Power ground.
Bootstrap. BST is the positive power supply for the high-side MOSFET (HS-FET) driver
BST
connected to SW. Connect a bypass capacitor between BST and SW. See the Application
Information section on page 33 to determine the size of this capacitor.
SW
Switch node. SW is the output of the internal power MOSFET.
Enable. Pull this pin above 1V to turn the MPQ4317 on; pull it below 0.85V to turn the
EN
chip off.
SYNC output. This pin outputs a clock signal that is 180° out-of-phase with the internal
SYNCO oscillator signal or opposite the clock signal applied at the SYNCIN pin. Float this pin if
not used.
Power good indicator. This pin has an open-drain output, and a pull-up resistor to power
source is required if this pin is used. If the output voltage (VOUT) is within 95% to 105% of
PG
the nominal voltage, this pin goes high. If VOUT is above 106.5% or below 93% of the
nominal voltage, it goes low.

Bias supply. This pin supplies 4.9V to the internal control circuitry and gate drivers. Place
a decoupling capacitor to ground close to this pin. See the Application Information section
on page 33 to determine the size of this capacitor.
Analog ground.
Feedback input. For the adjustable-output version of the MPQ4317, connect FB to the
center point of the external resistor divider from the output to AGND to set VOUT. The
feedback (FB) threshold voltage is 0.815V. Place the resistor divider as close to FB as
possible. Avoid placing vias on the FB traces. For the fixed-output version, connect the
FB pin directly to the output.
Soft start input. Place a capacitor from SS to GND to set the soft-start time. The
MPQ4317 sources 13µA from SS to the soft-start capacitor (CSS) at start-up. As the SS
voltage (VSS) rises, the FB threshold voltage increases to limit inrush current during startup.
Switching frequency program. Connect a resistor from this pin to ground to set the
switching frequency (fSW). See the fSW vs. RFREQ curve in the Typical Performance
Characteristics (TPC) section on page 15 to set the frequency.

Notes:
2) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.
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 can cause excessive die temperature, and the
regulator may go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal
shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent
damage.
4) Measured on JESD51-7, 4-layer PCB. The values given in this
table are only valid for comparison with other packages and
cannot be used for design purposes. These values were
calculated in accordance with JESD51-7, and simulated on a
specified JEDEC board. They do not represent the
performance obtained in an actual application.
5) Measured on an MPS standard EVB: 9cmx9cm, 2oz. copper
thickness, 4-layer PCB.

MPQ4317 – 45V, 7A, LOW IQ, SYNC STEP-DOWN CONVERTER WITH FSS
OPERATION
The MPQ4317 is a synchronous, step-down
switching regulator with integrated internal highside and low-side power MOSFETs (HS-FETs and
LS-FETs, respectively). It provides 7A of highly
efficient output current (IOUT) with current mode
control.
It also features wide input voltage (VIN) range,
programmable switching frequency (fSW), external
soft start (SS), and precision current limit. Its very
low operational quiescent current (IQ) makes it well
suited for battery-powered applications.
Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) Control
At moderate to high output currents, the MPQ4317
operates in a fixed-frequency, peak current control
mode to regulate the output voltage (VOUT). A
pulse-width modulation (PWM) cycle is initiated by
the internal clock. At the rising edge of the clock,
the HS-FET turns on and remains on until its
current reaches the value set by the internal
COMP voltage (VCOMP). Once the HS-FET is on, it
remains on for at least 100ns.
When the HS-FET is off, the LS-FET turns on
immediately and remains on until the next cycle
starts. Once the LS-FET is on, it remains on for at
least 80ns before next cycle starts.
If the current in the HS-FET does not reach the
COMP set current value within one PWM period,
then the HS-FET remains on, saving a shutdown
operation. If the on time lasts about 10µs, the HSFET is forced off even though VCOMP is not reached.
Light-Load Operation
Under light-load conditions, the MPQ4317 can
operate in two different modes by setting the
MODE pin to a different status (see Figure 4).
When the MODE pin is pulled above 1.8V, the
MPQ4317 works in forced continuous conduction
mode (FCCM). The part works with a fixed
frequency across the no-load to full-load range in
this mode. The advantage of FCCM is the
controllable frequency and lower output ripple at
light loads.
When the MODE pin is pulled below 0.4V, the
MPQ4317 works in advanced asynchronous
modulation (AAM) mode. AAM is intended to
optimize efficiency during light-load and no-load
conditions.
When AAM is enabled, the MPQ4317 first enters
non-synchronous operation for as long as the
inductor current (IL) approaches 0A at light loads.
If the load decreases further or there is no load
that makes VCOMP decrease to the set value, then
the MPQ4317 enters AAM. In AAM, the internal
clock resets every time VCOMP crosses over the set
value; the crossover time is taken as benchmark
of the next clock. When the load increases and
VCOMP exceeds the set value, the MPQ4317
operates in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)
or CCM, which has a constant switching frequency.

Figure 4: AAM Mode and FCCM
Error Amplifier (EA)
The error amplifier (EA) compares the FB voltage
(VFB) with the internal reference voltage (VREF,
typically 0.815V) and outputs a current
proportional to the difference between the two.
IOUT is then used to charge the compensation
network to form VCOMP, which is used to control the
MOSFET current.
During operation, the minimum VCOMP is clamped
to 0.9V, and the maximum VCOMP is clamped to
2.0V. COMP is internally pulled down to GND in
shutdown mode.
Internal VCC Regulator
Most of the internal circuitry is powered by the
internal, 4.9V VCC regulator. This regulator takes
VIN as the input and operates across the full VIN
range. When VIN is above 4.9V, the VCC voltage
(VCC) is in full regulation. When VIN is below 4.9V,
VCC degrades.
Bootstrap Charging
The bootstrap capacitor (CBST) is charged and
regulated to about 5V by the dedicated internal
bootstrap regulator. When the voltage between
the BST and SW nodes falls below its regulation,
a PMOS pass transistor connected from VCC to
BST turns on to charge CBST. External circuitry

MPQ4317 – 45V, 7A, LOW IQ, SYNC STEP-DOWN CONVERTER WITH FSS
should provide enough voltage headroom to
facilitate the charging. When the HS-FET is on,
the BST voltage (VBST) exceeds VCC, so CBST
cannot be charged.
At higher duty cycles, the time period available for
bootstrap charging is shorter, so CBST may not be
sufficiently charged. If the external circuit does not
have sufficient voltage and time to charge CBST,
additional external circuitry can be used to ensure
VBST is within its normal operation range.
Low-Dropout Mode and BST Refresh
To improve dropout, the MPQ4317 is designed to
operate at close to 100% duty cycle as long as the
BST-to-SW-pin voltage is above 2.5V. If the
voltage from the BST pin to the SW pin drops
below 2.5V, the HS-FET turns off using the undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuit, which allows the
LS-FET to conduct and refresh the charge on CBST.
In DCM or pulse-skip mode (PSM), the LS-FET is
forced on to refresh VBST.
Since the supply current sourced from CBST is low,
the HS-FET can remain on for more switching
cycles than are required to refresh the capacitor,
thus making the switching regulator’s duty cycle
high.
The effective duty cycle during the regulator’s
dropout period is mainly influenced by the voltage
drops across the power MOSFET, the inductor
resistance, the low-side diode, and the PCB
resistance.
Enable (EN) Control
EN is a digital control pin that turns the regulator
on and off. The MPQ4317 can be enabled by two
methods, described below:
The first is to enable the part via the external logic
H/L signal. When EN is pulled below its falling
threshold voltage (0.85V), the chip is put into the
lowest shutdown current mode. Force this pin
above the EN rising threshold voltage (1V) to turn
on the part.
The second is the configurable VIN under-voltage
lockout (UVLO) threshold. With a high enough VIN,
the chip can be enabled and disabled via the EN
pin. With the internal current source, this circuit
can generate a programmable VIN UVLO and
hysteresis (see Figure 5).

Frequency Programmable and Fold back
The MPQ4317’s oscillating frequency can be
configured either by an external resistor (RFREQ)
from the FREQ pin to ground, or by a logic level
SYNC signal.
To get the expected fSW, select the corresponding
RFREQ value using the fSW vs. RFREQ curve (see the
Typical Performance Characteristics section on
page 15). Note that fSW will fold back at high input
voltages to avoid the minimum on time being
triggered and VOUT going out of regulation. The
recommended fSW for car battery applications is
350kHz to 1000kHz. Table 1 lists recommended
RFREQ values for common frequencies. Higher
frequencies may be supported for the applications
that do not have a critical limit on fSW or have a
relatively low, stable VIN.

Frequency Spread Spectrum (FSS)
The MPQ4317 uses a 12kHz modulation
frequency with a 128-steps triangular profile to
spread the internal oscillator frequency across a
20% (±10%) window. The steps are fixed, and
independent of the setting oscillator frequency to
optimize the frequency spread spectrum (FSS)
performance (see Figure 6 on page 30).

fSPAN = 20% x fSW

Figure 6: Spread Spectrum Scheme
Side bands are created by modulating fSW with the
triangle modulation waveform. The emission
power of the fundamental fSW and its harmonics is
distributed into smaller pieces. Thus, the peak EMI
noise is reduced significantly.
Soft Start (SS)
The MPQ4317 implements soft start (SS) to
prevent the converter’s VOUT from overshooting
during start-up.
When the SS period starts, an internal current
source begins charging the external soft-start
capacitor (CSS). When the soft-start voltage (VSS)
is below the internal VREF, VSS overrides VREF and
the EA uses VSS as the reference. When VSS is
above VREF, VREF regains control. CSS can be
calculated with Equation (1):
CSS (nF) =
t SS (ms) ISS (μA)
= 13.5 t SS (ms) (1)
VREF (V)
The SS pin can be used for tracking and
sequencing.
Pre-Biased Start-Up
if VFB > VSS - 150mV at start-up, the output has
pre-biased voltage. Neither the HS-FET or LSFET turn on until VSS exceeds VFB.
Thermal Shutdown
Thermal shutdown is implemented to prevent the
chip from thermally running away. When the
silicon die temperature exceeds its upper
threshold, the power MOSFETs shut down. When
the temperature returns to below its lower
threshold, the chip is enabled and resumes normal
operation.
Current Comparator and Current Limit
The power MOSFET current is accurately sensed
via a current-sense MOSFET. It is then fed to the
high-speed current comparator for current mode
control. The current comparator takes this sensed
current as one of its inputs. When the HS-FET is
on, the comparator is blanked until the end of the
turn-on transition to dodge the sample inductor
current noise. Then the comparator compares the
MOSFET current with VCOMP. When the sensed
current is above VCOMP, the comparator outputs
low to turn off the HS-FET. The internal power
MOSFET’s maximum current is internally limited
cycle by cycle.
Hiccup Protection
When the output is shorted to ground, VOUT drops
below 70% of its nominal output, which causes the
IC to shut down momentarily and begin
discharging CSS. Once CSS is fully discharged, the
IC restarts with a full SS. This hiccup process
repeats until the fault is removed.
Start-Up and Shutdown
If both VIN and EN exceeds their appropriate
thresholds, the chip starts up. The reference block
starts first, generating a stable reference voltage
and currents, and then the internal regulator is
enabled. The regulator provides a stable supply
for the remaining circuitries.
While the internal supply rail is up, an internal
timer keeps the power MOSFET off for about 50µs
to blank any start-up glitches. When the SS block
is enabled, it first holds its output low to ensure the
remaining circuitries are ready, and then slowly
ramps up.
Three events can shut down the chip: EN low, VIN
low, thermal shutdown. During the shutdown
procedure, the signaling path is blocked first to
avoid any fault triggering. VCOMP and the internal
supply rail are then pulled down. The floating
driver is not subject to this shutdown command,
but its charging path is disabled.
Power Good (PG) Output
The MPQ4317 includes an open-drain power
good (PG) output that indicates whether the VOUT
is within its normal range. If using this function, a
pull-up resistor connected to the power source is
required. If VOUT is within 95% to 105% of the
nominal voltage, PG goes high. If VOUT is above
106.5% or below 93.5% of the nominal voltage,
PG goes low.
SYNCIN and SYNCO
fSW can be synced to the rising edge of the clock
signal applied at SYNCIN. The recommended
SYNCIN frequency range is 350kHz to 1000kHz.
Ensure that the SYNCIN off time is shorter than
the internal oscillator period; otherwise, the

MPQ4317 – 45V, 7A, LOW IQ, SYNC STEP-DOWN CONVERTER WITH FSS
internal clock will turn on the HS-FET before the
rising edge of SYNCIN. There is no other limit on
the pulse width of SYNCIN, but there is always
parasitic capacitance of the pad. So if the pulse
width is too short, a clear rising and falling edge
may not be seen due to the parasitic capacitance.
A pulse longer than 100ns is recommended in
applications.
When applying SYNCIN in AAM, drive SYNCIN
below its specified threshold (0.4V) or leave
SYNCIN floating before the MPQ4317 starts up to
enter AAM. An external SYNCIN clock can also be
added. To avoid SYNCIN floating when using this
function through an external clock, connect a
resistor to GND. Given SYNCIN’s drive capability,
the resistor is recommended to be between 10kΩ
and 51kΩ.
The SYNCO pin provides a default 180° phaseshifted clock to the internal oscillator. If there is no
external SYNCIN clock, SYNCO can provide a
180° phase-shifted clock compared with the
internal clock. If there is an external SYNCIN
clock, SYNCO provides a 180° phase-shifted
clock compared with the external SYNCIN clock.

Selecting the Input Capacitor
The step-down converter has a discontinuous
input current, and requires a capacitor to supply
AC current to the converter while maintaining the
DC input voltage. For the best performance, use
low-ESR capacitors. Ceramic capacitors with
X5R or X7R dielectrics are highly recommended
because of their low ESR and small temperature
coefficients.
For most applications, use a 4.7µF to 10µF
capacitor. It is strongly recommended to use
another, lower-value capacitor (e.g. 0.1µF) with
a small package size (0603) to absorb highfrequency switching noise. Place the smaller
capacitor as close to VIN and GND as possible.
Since CIN absorbs the input switching current, it
requires an adequate ripple current rating. The
RMS current (ICIN) in the input capacitor can be
estimated with Equation (3):
The input capacitor can be electrolytic, tantalum,
or ceramic. When using electrolytic or tantalum
capacitors, add a small, high-quality ceramic
capacitor (e.g. 0.1μF) as close to the IC as
possible. When using ceramic capacitors,
ensure that they have enough capacitance to
provide a sufficient charge to prevent excessive
voltage ripple at the input. The input voltage
ripple (∆VIN) caused by the capacitance can be
estimated with Equation (5):

Selecting the Output Capacitor
The output capacitor maintains the DC output
voltage. Use ceramic, tantalum, or low-ESR
electrolytic capacitors. For best results, use lowESR capacitors to keep the output voltage ripple
low. The output voltage ripple (∆VOUT) can be
estimated with Equation (6):
ΔVOUT =

Where L is the inductance, and RESR is the
equivalent series resistance (ESR) value of the
output capacitor.
For ceramic capacitors, the capacitance
dominates the impedance at the switching
frequency and causes the majority of the output
voltage ripple. For simplification, the output
voltage ripple (∆VOUT) can be estimated with
Equation (7):

External BST Diode and Resistor
An external BST diode can enhance the
efficiency of the regulator when the duty cycle is
high. A 2.5V to 5V power supply can be used to
power the external bootstrap diode. VCC or VOUT
is recommended to be this power supply in the
circuit (see Figure 9).

Where ∆IL is the peak-to-peak inductor ripple
current.
Choose the inductor ripple current to be
approximately 30% of the maximum load current.
The maximum inductor peak current (ILP) can be
calculated with Equation (10):

Selecting the Inductor
A 1µH to 10µH inductor with a DC current rating
at least 25% greater than the maximum load
current is recommended for most applications.
For higher efficiency, choose an inductor with a
lower DC resistance. A larger-value inductor
results in less ripple current and a lower output
ripple voltage; however, it also has a larger
physical size, higher series resistance, and lower
saturation current. A good rule for determining
the inductor value is to allow the inductor ripple
current to be approximately 30% of the
maximum load current. The inductance (L) can
then be calculated with Equation (9):

The characteristics of the output capacitor also
affect the stability of the regulation system. The
MPQ4317 can be optimized for a wide range of

VIN UVLO Setting
The MPQ4317 has an internal, fixed undervoltage lockout (UVLO) threshold. The rising
threshold is 3V, while the falling threshold is
about 2.7V. For the applications that require a
higher UVLO point, an external resistor divider
between VIN and EN can be used to achieve a
higher equivalent UVLO threshold (see Figure 8).

Figure 9: Optional External Bootstrap Diode to
Enhance Efficiency
The recommended external BST diode is
IN4148, and the recommended CBST value is
0.1µF to 1μF. A resistor in series with the BST
capacitor (RBST) can reduce the SW rising rate
and voltage spikes. This helps enhance EMI
performance and reduce voltage stress at a high
VIN. A higher resistance is better for SW spike
reduction, but compromises efficiency. As a
tradeoff between EMI and efficiency, a ≤20Ω
RBST is recommended.
Selecting the VCC Capacitor
The VCC capacitor should be 10 times greater
than the boost capacitor. A VCC capacitor above
68µF (nominal) is not recommended.

PCB Layout Guidelines (9)
Efficient PCB layout is critical for stable
operation. A 4-layer layout is strongly
recommended to achieve better thermal
performance. For best results, refer to Figure 10
and follow the guidelines below:
1.
Place symmetric input capacitors as close to
VIN and GND as possible.
2.
Use a large ground plane to connect directly
to PGND.
3.
If the bottom layer is a ground plane, add
vias near PGND.
4.
Ensure that the high-current paths at GND
and VIN have short, direct, and wide traces.
5.
Place the ceramic input capacitor, especially
the small package size (0603) input bypass
capacitor, as close to VIN and PGND as
possible to minimize high-frequency noise.
6.
Keep the connection between the input
capacitor and VIN as short and wide as
possible.
7.
Place the VCC capacitor as close to VCC
and GND as possible.
8.
Route SW and BST away from sensitive
analog areas, such as FB.
9.
Place the feedback resistors close to the
chip to ensure that the trace that connects to
FB is as short as possible.
Top Layer
Mid-Layer 1
10. Use multiple vias to connect the power
planes to the internal layers.
Note:
