MPQ4473-AEC1
High-Efficiency, Fast-Transient, 3.5A, 36V
Synchronous, Step-Down Converter with
AEC-Q100 Qualified
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MPQ4473 is a fully integrated, highfrequency, synchronous, rectified, step-down,
switch-mode converter. It offers a compact
solution to achieve a 3.5A, continuous-output
current over a wide input-supply range with
excellent load and line regulation. It provides
fast, transient response and good stability for
wide input-supply and load range. The
MPQ4473 operates at high efficiency over a
wide-output-current load range.
MPQ4473 has full protection features including,
short-circuit protection (SCP), over-current
protection (OCP), under-voltage protection
(UVP), and thermal shutdown (TSD).
The MPQ4473 requires minimal, readily available,
standard, external components, and is available
in a compact 3mmx4mm, 20-pin, QFN package.

Notes:
1) Absolute maximum ratings are rated under room temperature
unless otherwise noted. 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
will cause excessive die temperature, and the regulator will 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 JESD51-7, 4-layer PCB.
