MPQ7200
42V, 1.2A Buck-Boost or 3A Buck
Synchronous LED Driver,
AEC-Q100 Qualified
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MPQ7200 is a high-frequency, constantcurrent, buck-boost LED driver with integrated
power MOSFETs. It offers a very compact
solution to achieve up to 1.2A of continuous
output current, with excellent load and line
regulation across a wide input supply range. The
MPQ7200 can also be configured for buck mode
to provide up to 3A of constant load current.
•
Constant frequency hysteretic control provides
extremely fast transient response without loop
compensation. The switching frequency can be
fixed up to 2.3MHz in buck mode to reduce the
current ripple and improve EMI. It can also be
configured to as low as 1.15MHz for optimized
efficiency and thermal performance in buckboost mode.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Full protection features include over-current
protection (OCP), output over-voltage protection
(OVP) and under-voltage protection (UVP),
thermal derating (TD), and thermal shutdown
(TSD). The fault indicator outputs an active logic
low signal if a fault condition occurs.
•
The MPQ7200 requires a minimal number of
readily available, standard external components,
and is available in a space-saving QFN-19
(3mmx4mm) package.

PIN FUNCTIONS

Description
Two-step dimming duty set. Connect a resistor (RDUTY) between DUTY and AGND to set the
duty cycle for two-step dimming (or disable two-step dimming). The two-step dimming duty cycle
can be set between 5% and 15% with 1% steps (see the Two-Step Dimming section on page 43
for more details). If the DUTY pin is shorted to ground or an open fault is detected before startup, the part latches off and FAULT is asserted.
No connection. Leave the NC pin floating.
Enable/dimming control. When the two-step dimming function is not active (RDUTY = 4.87kΩ),
pull (VEN/DIM - VINGND) above 2.5V to turn the device on; pull (VEN/DIM - VINGND) below 1.58V
for >25ms to turn the device off and reset FAULT. Apply an external clock (100Hz to 2kHz) to the
3
EN/DIM EN/DIM pin for PWM dimming. Connect the EN/DIM and VIN pins using a resistor for automatic
start-up (once VIN and VCC exceed their respective UVLO thresholds). In two-step dimming mode,
EN control and PWM dimming function is disabled. Pull EN/DIM high for 100% dimming duty; pull
it low to select dimming duty set by DUTY pin (see Table 2 on page 44 for more details).
Supply voltage. The MPQ7200 operates from a 6V to 42V input rail. Use a capacitor (CIN) to
4, 13
VIN
decouple the input rail. Connect VIN to the input rail using a wide PCB trace.
Power ground. PGND is the reference ground of the power device, including the configuration
5, 6,
PGND pins (i.e. NTC), so it requires careful consideration when designing the PCB layout. PGND can
11, 12
be used to dissipate thermal heat.
Bootstrap. Connect a capacitor between the SW and BST pins to form a floating supply across
7
BST the high-side MOSFET driver. Place a resistor between the SW pin and BST capacitor to reduce
SW voltage spikes and improve EMI performance.
Switch output. This pin is the middle point between the high-side and low-side MOSFETs.
Connect this pin using a wide trace with a small SW node to reduce noise coupling and improve
8, 9
SW
EMI.

Fault indicator. FAULT is an open-drain output with an internal 300kΩ pull-up resistor connected
to VIN, and a 4MΩ pull-down resistor connected to INGND. FAULT is pulled low if any of the
FAULT following faults occur: LED short, LED open, over-temperature protection (OTP), false mode
detection, and over-current protection (OCP). FAULT can be connected to VIN using a pull-up
resistor.
VIN, EN/DIM, and FAULT ground for buck-boost topologies. If using a buck topology, connect
INGND
the INGND pin to PGND or AGND.
AGND Analog ground. Logic circuit reference ground. Connect AGND and PGND with an external trace.
Internal bias supply. VCC supplies power to the internal control circuit and gate drivers. Place a
VCC ≥3µF decoupling capacitor close to VCC and connect it to ground. Considering the capacitance
derating, it is recommended to use a 10µF/10V or 16V X7R capacitor.
Mode selection and NTC reference current setting. Connect a ≤9.09kΩ resistor to IREF to set
the MPQ7200 to buck-boost mode; connect a ≥14.7kΩ resistor to IREF to set the MPQ7200 buck
mode. The IREF voltage is 0.57V. Connect a resistor (RIREF) from IREF to GND to get a reference
IREF current (0.57V / RIREF). If the IREF pin is shorted to ground or an open fault is detected, the part
latches off and asserts FAULT. In buck mode, the current on the NTC pin is 50 times that of the
reference current on IREF. In buck-boost mode, the current on the NTC pin is 5 times that of the
reference current on IREF.
LED current setting. Connect an external resistor from ISET to ground to set the average LED
ISET current. If the ISET pin is shorted to ground or an open fault is detected, the part latches off and
asserts FAULT.
Remote temperature sense. Connect NTC to a resistor or to a resistor network connected from
NTC NTC pin to PGND to configure the temperature derating starting point. The device provides
protections for the following conditions: NTC shorted to PGND, AGND, INGND, or the battery.

Recommended Operating Conditions
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 can cause excessive die temperature, and the
regulator may go into thermal shutdown. Internal thermal
shutdown circuitry protects the device from permanent
damage.
3) 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, the value of θJC
shows the thermal resistance from junction-to-case bottom.
4) Measured on the MPS standard EVB for the MPQ7200, 2oz.,
4-layer PCB.

MPQ7200 – 42V, 1.2A, BUCK-BOOST OR 3A BUCK SYNC LED DRIVER, AEC-Q100
OPERATION
The MPQ7200 is a high-frequency, synchronous
rectified, buck-boost or buck, switch-mode LED
driver with built-in power MOSFETs. It offers a
very compact solution to achieve up to 1.2A of
continuous output current in buck-boost
topologies and 3A in buck topologies, with
excellent load and line regulation across a 6V to
42V input supply range.
Fixed-Frequency Band-to-Band Control
The MPQ7200 uses fixed-frequency band-band
control and a spread spectrum technique to
reduce EMC noise. Compared to fixedfrequency PWM control, band-to-band control
offers the advantage of a simpler control loop
and faster transient response. Even without an
output capacitor, the loop is stable. Band-band
control compares the inductor current to the
internal thresholds (IBANDPEAK and IBANDVALLEY).
If the inductor current exceeds IBANDPEAK, the
high-side MOSFET (HS-FET) turns off. If the
inductor current drops below IBANDVALLEY, the HSFET turns on. (IBANDPEAK + IBANDVALLEY) / 2 is
controlled by a PID loop to regulate the LED
current. IBANDPEAK - IBANDVALLEY is controlled by a
PLL loop to regulate the switching frequency to
be 2.3MHz in buck mode or 1.15MHz in buckboost mode. If the minimum on time (tON_MIN) or
minimum off time (tOFF_MIN) are triggered, the
switching frequency is extended and the real
switching frequency is D / tON_MIN, or (1 - D) /
tOFF_MIN, where D is the required duty cycle and
tON_MIN and tOFF_MIN are both 80ns maximum.
The additional spread spectrum uses a 15kHz
modulation frequency with a triangular profile to
spread the internal oscillator frequency over a
±10% nominal switching frequency window
(1.15MHz in buck mode or 2.3MHz in buck-boost
mode).
Middle-Point Inductor Current Sense
The MPQ7200 senses the LED current by
sensing the middle point of the inductor current
(ILMID). ILMID is sensed through the HS-FET or lowside MOSFET (LS-FET) depending on the duty
cycle. ILMID is sensed through the HS-FET when
the duty cycle exceeds DTH_H (55% in buck mode
or 60% in buck-boost mode), and is sensed
through the LS-FET when the duty cycle is below
DTH_L (45% in buck mode or 40% in buck-boost
mode). A duty cycle hysteresis (DTH_HYS, 10% in
buck mode or 20% in buck-boost mode) is used
to frequently avoid the current-sense switches
between the HS-FET and LS-FET at the critical
duty cycle.

Figure 2: Current-Sense MOSFET vs. Duty Cycle
The LED current is equal to ILMID in buck
topologies, but is equal to ILMID x VIN / (VIN + VOUT)
in buck-boost topologies.
Buck and Buck-Boost Mode Selection
The MPQ7200 can be configured to a buck or
buck-boost topology by connecting a different
resistor at the IREF pin (RIREF). The middle point
of the inductor current (ILMID) is sensed through a
sensing FET. The LED current is equal to ILMID in
buck topologies, but is equal to ILMID x VIN / (VIN +
VOUT) in buck-boost topologies.
Mode detection starts when VCC reaches its
under-voltage lockout (UVLO) threshold (4.7V).
A 240µA current source (IREF_DET) flows out of the
IREF pin to detect the resistor voltage value on
the pin when the device powers on. If the voltage
generated by IREF_DET x RIREF is below 2.6V, buckboost mode is selected. If IREF_DET x RIREF
exceeds 2.8V, buck mode is selected. This
means the corresponding RIREF for buck-boost
mode is ≤9.09kΩ and ≥14.7kΩ for buck mode.
To avoid triggering a short on IREF in buck-boost
mode, or an open fault on IREF in buck mode,
the IREF resistor should be set between 1.05kΩ
and 9.09kΩ for buck-boost mode, and between
14.7kΩ and 80.6kΩ for buck mode.
Once the detection finishes, the mode is latched
and IREF becomes 0.57V / RIREF, which is the
reference for the NTC pin current. The latched
mode signal is reset by the VCC under-voltage
lockout (UVLO) threshold, but cannot be reset by
EN/DIM going low. An internal 1MHz filter and
250µs deglitch time protect the part from false

MPQ7200 – 42V, 1.2A, BUCK-BOOST OR 3A BUCK SYNC LED DRIVER, AEC-Q100
mode detection caused by noise coupling at the
pin. To ensure that the detected mode is
consistent with the real topology connection, the
INGND - PGND voltage is monitored. If INGND PGND exceeds 1.35V in buck mode, or INGND
- PGND is below 1.35V in buck-boost mode
(detected as an output under-voltage condition),
the part latches off and asserts FAULT.
Internal Regulator
The 5.1V internal regulator (VCC) powers most
of the internal circuitries. VCC is ready once VIN
reaches its rising UVLO threshold, regardless of
whether EN is high or low. VCC is the reference
for PGND and AGND, but not INGND. In buckboost mode, VCC cannot have the same ground
level as INGND. In buck-boost mode, the device
takes either VIN or VINGND as the input. If (VINGND
- VPGND) < 5.1V, VCC is powered from VIN. If
(VINGND - VPGND) > 5.1V, the input of the VCC
regulator switches to VINGND to reduce power
loss.
Once the power of VCC switches to INGND, VIN
will not power VCC until VINGND - VPGND drops
below 4.8V. A small VCC capacitor causes VCC
voltage ringing, and the switch may become
unstable. To address this, a ≥3µF decoupling
ceramic capacitor should be placed close to the
VCC pin. When selecting a VCC capacitor,
consider the capacitance derating to ensure that
the real capacitance ≥3µF. It is recommended to
use a 10µF X7R capacitor with ≥10V DC rated
voltage. VCC has its own UVLO, with a 4.7V
rising and 4.05V falling threshold. In addition to
powering the internal circuitries, VCC can also
power external circuitries in the system, with a
current capability of 25mA.
Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) and
Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM)
The MPQ7200 uses continuous conduction
mode (CCM) to ensure that the part works with
fixed frequency from minimum loads to full loads.
The advantage of CCM is its controllable
frequency and lower output ripple at light-load. If
IBANDVALLEY = 0A, the MPQ7200 enters
discontinuous current mode (DCM), the LS-FET
acts as an ideal diode. Select an inductor that
ensures that the part does not enter DCM, even
during power or thermal derating. Otherwise, the
LED current precision is not guaranteed.
Enable (EN) Control
When two-step dimming is not active (see the
Two-Step Dimming section on page 43), EN/DIM
is the control pin that turns the LED driver on and
off. Drive (VEN/DIM - VINGND) above 2.5V to turn the
device on; drive it below 1.58V for >25ms to turn
the device off and reset FAULT. The MPQ7200
starts thermal detection at the first positive edge
of the EN/DIM signal, which causes an about
0.9ms delay between when EN/DIM turns on and
when the device starts operating.
When two-step dimming is active, the MPQ7200
automatically turns on once VIN and VCC exceed
their respective UVLO thresholds, and EN is
configured to be the two-step dimming control
pin. Driving EN/DIM high selects a 100%
dimming duty, and driving it low selects an
adjustable dimming duty set by the DUTY pin.
EN cannot reset the FAULT pin in two-step
dimming mode.
An internal 1MΩ resistor between the EN/DIM
and INGND pins allows EN/DIM to be floated to
shut down the chip. An integrated Zener diode is
in parallel with the EN/DIM pin to clamp EN/DIM
to about 7V (see Figure 3). EN/DIM can be
connected to VIN using a pull-up resistor in both
buck mode and buck-boost mode, or to VCC in
buck mode for automatic start-up (once VIN and
VCC exceed their respective UVLO thresholds). It
is recommended to use a 100kΩ resistor to limit
the EN/DIM input current to be below 1mA.

ISET
The average LED current can be configured by
connecting a resistor (RISET) at the ISET pin. The
LED current can be calculated with Equation (1):
ILED (A) = 16 / RISET (kΩ)
(1)
The nominal voltage of the ISET pin (VISET) is
0.592V. VISET can be set below 0.592V to
decrease the LED current in the event of power
derating or thermal derating.

During the mode detection period during start-up
in buck mode, the ISET current is monitored to
detect if the LED current is set above or below
600mA. If IISET > 22.2µA during this period, the
LED current setting is detected as >600mA, and
the MOSFETs fully turn on. If the LED current
setting is detected as 2.235V in this round, twostep dimming is disabled. Then the part can be
turned on/off through EN/DIM, or can work in
normal PWM dimming by applying a dimming
signal at EN/DIM. If VDUTY < 0.302V, a pin short
fault is detected; then and the part latches off

10) Not applicable. If an LED- short to battery in buck-boost mode occurs, the negative voltage (VINGND-PGND) may cause damage to the IC.
11) The part latches off and FAULT asserts if the ISET or IREF pins experience a short or open fault before or after start-up.
12) The part latches off and FAULT asserts if an IDUTY pin short or open fault occurs before start-up. After start-up, an IDUTY short or open
fault cannot be detected.
13) To avoid unintentionally triggering low LED current protection, the LED current should not be set below the low LED current rising threshold.
The LED current also should not be below the low LED current rising threshold while power derating is active in buck-boost mode.

MPQ7200 – 42V, 1.2A, BUCK-BOOST OR 3A BUCK SYNC LED DRIVER, AEC-Q100
Over-Current Protection (OCP)
The MPQ7200 has cycle-by-cycle peak current
limit protection. The inductor current is monitored
while the HS-FET is on. If the inductor current
exceeds the current limit value (about 6.3A when
the LED current is set above 600mA, and 3.15A
when the LED current is set below 600mA, the
HS-FET turns off immediately. Then the LS-FET
turns on to discharge the energy, and the
inductor current decreases. The HS-FET
remains off unless the inductor current falls to 0A,
at which point another HS-FET on cycle starts. If
the over-current (OC) condition is still present
after three consecutive retries, the part latches
off and reports a failure as the FAULT pin is
asserted.
Load Dump Protection
The MPQ7200’s internal MOSFETs have a 50V
absolute maximum rating, and a maximum 42V
operating voltage. In buck topologies, this
maximum voltage can handle load dump
conditions up to 42V.
In buck-boost topologies, the voltage difference
between VIN and PGND is the sum of the car
battery’s voltage plus the LED voltage. Under
load dump conditions, the MPQ7200 can exceed
its maximum value.
To protect the part under load dump conditions
in buck-boost mode, the MPQ7200 stops
switching if VIN - VPGND exceeds 40V. A 100mA
sink current at INGND is activated to discharge
the output voltage, so the MOSFET only detects
the VIN voltage stress. The part automatically
restarts when VIN - VPGND drops back to 39V.
Load dump protection does not always trigger a
fault, and it is not active in buck mode. Load
dump protection can reset the FAULT status
caused by other fault conditions, but it cannot
reset the MPQ7200 if the part is latched.
Power Derating
If VIN is below a specific voltage (typically 7V) in
buck-boost mode, the power derating starts. The
LED current drops linearly with VIN due to analog
dimming. Derating continues until VIN reaches
the under-voltage lockout (UVLO) threshold,
then the LED current drops by 29% . During
start-up, power derating is enabled in buck-boost
mode. Power derating is always disabled in buck
mode.
NTC Thermal Derating
Connect an NTC resistor network to the NTC pin
to reduce the output current via analog dimming.
This is especially useful when the sensed
temperature exceeds the configured value. The
LED current drops as the temperature rises. The
activation of NTC and the dimming ratio are
determined by the three-step NTC voltage (VNTC)
detection (see Figure 5).

are highly recommended because of their low
ESR and small temperature coefficients.
For most applications, use a 4.7µF to 22µF
capacitor. The input capacitor can be electrolytic,
tantalum, or ceramic. When using electrolytic or
tantalum capacitors, it is strongly recommended
to use an additional lower-value capacitor (e.g.
0.1µF) with a small package size (0603) to
absorb high-frequency switching noise. Place
the smaller capacitor as close to VIN and GND
(INGND = PGND in buck mode, for both INGND
and PGND in buck-boost mode) as possible.
Since CIN absorbs the input switching current in
buck mode, the device requires an adequate
ripple current rating. The RMS current in the
input capacitor can be estimated with Equation
(8):
ICIN = ILOAD

Under light-load conditions, use a larger-value
inductor to improve efficiency and current
precision. Table 6 lists the recommended
inductor values for common ILED currents in buckboost mode.

Selecting the Input Capacitor
The device has a discontinuous input current in
both buck and buck-boost mode, 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.

In buck-boost mode, consider the capacitor
between VIN and PGND for VCC regulator
stability and improved EMC performance. If
(VINGND - VPGND) > 5.1V, the input of the VCC

loss. Place a 0.44µF to 1.2µF ceramic capacitor
between VIN and PGND to stabilize VCC when
the VCC charging source changes from VIN to

X7R ceramic capacitors can be placed between
VIN and PGND.
Selecting the Output Capacitor
The output capacitor maintains the DC output
voltage. Ceramic, tantalum, or low-ESR
electrolytic capacitors are recommended. For
the best results, use low-ESR capacitors to keep
the output voltage ripple low.
In buck mode, the output voltage ripple can be
estimated with Equation (12):
ΔVOUT =
VOUT
V
1
(1 - OUT ) (RESR +
) (12)
fSW L
VIN
8 fsw COUT
Where L is the inductor value, 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 the capacitance causes the
majority of the output voltage ripple. For
simplification, the output voltage ripple can be
estimated with Equation (13):
VOUT =
VOUT
V
(1 − OUT ) (13)
8 fSW L COUT
VIN
2
For tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the ESR
dominates the impedance at the switching
frequency. For simplification, the output ripple
can be estimated with Equation (14):
VOUT =
VOUT
V
(1 − OUT ) RESR
fSW L
VIN
(14)
If IBANDVALLEY ≥ ILED in buck-boost applications, the
output capacitor can be calculated with Equation
(15):
ΔVOUT = ILED (RESR +
VOUT
) (15)
fsw COUT (VIN + VOUT )
For tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the ESR
dominates the impedance at the switching
frequency. For simplification, the output ripple
can be estimated with Equation (16):
ΔVOUT = ILED RESR
(16)
A 10µF to 22µF ceramic capacitor is sufficient for
most applications. Two symmetric 4.7µF/25V
X7R ceramic capacitors can be placed between
LED+ and LED-.
Selecting the Diode from PGND to INGND in
Buck-Boost Mode
If the device is operating in buck-boost mode,
place a Schottky diode between INGND and
PGND to direct the charge current of the
capacitor connected between VIN and PGND,
especially when the VIN slew rate is high. When
(VINGND - VPGND) < 5.1V, VCC is powered by VIN.
The VCC charge current flows from the VCC
capacitor to PGND, then back to INGND and
then the car battery. For this application, it is
recommended to use a Schottky diode with a low
forward voltage (VF) of about 0.32V, with a 1A
current rating and >20V VRRM voltage. A
PMEG2010EPAS
Schottky
diode
is
recommended.
Selecting the VCC Capacitor
A small VCC capacitor causes ringing on VCC,
and makes the MOSFET unstable. It is
recommended to place a ≥3µF decoupling
ceramic capacitor at the VCC pin. When
selecting a capacitor, consider the capacitance
derating to ensure that the real capacitance is at
least 3µF. A 10µF X7R with a ≥10V DC rated
voltage capacitor is recommend. VCC is the
reference to PGND/AGND.
Selecting the BST Resistor and Capacitor
It is recommended to place a resistor in series
with the BST capacitor to reduce the SW spike
voltage. A higher resistance reduces SW spikes,
but it also reduces efficiency. It is recommended
to use a 22nF to 220nF ceramic capacitor with
10/16V DC derating.
Consider efficiency and EMI performance when
choosing a resistor. Choose a maximum 22Ω
resistor with a 0603/0402 package, as a large
package is not required. During normal
operation, the average current flowing through
the bootstrap resistor is about 20mA in buck
mode and 10mA in buck-boost mode. If the
capacitor is shorted, the current inside the
resistor is limited by the internal LDO. The device
can quickly detect a failure if the LED current
falls below its low limit. Then the part latches off,
and current is no longer sourced to the resistor.
A 0402 package can handle power dissipation
on the bootstrap resistor.
The part integrates BST capacitor open
detection functionality. When VIN and VCC
reach their under-voltage lockout (UVLO) rising

thresholds, the BST capacitor is charged after
the 1ms thermal derating finishes. If the voltage
on the BST capacitor reaches the UVLO rising
threshold in 45µs, the part detects a BST open
fault and latches off. If VIN restarts frequently,
the BST capacitor may not be able to discharge
sufficiently, and an open fault may be
mistriggered. To avoid a mistrigger, place a
small BST capacitor and a bleeding resistor in
parallel with the BST capacitor. This ensures that
the BST capacitor voltage is sufficiently low after
a restart. It is recommended to use a 22nF
capacitor and 15kΩ resistor (see Figure 7).

PCB Layout Guidelines (14) (15)
Efficient PCB layout, especially input capacitor
placement, is critical for stable operation. A 4layer layout is strongly recommended to improve
thermal performance. For the best results, refer
to Figure 8 and Figure 9, and follow the
guidelines below:
1.
Place the symmetric ceramic input capacitor,
especially the small package (0603) input
bypass capacitor, as close to the VIN and
PGND pins as possible to reduce highfrequency noise. Keep the connection
between the input capacitor and VIN as
short and wide as possible.
2.
Directly connect the PGND pin to a large
ground plane on the PCB.
3.
If the bottom layer is a ground plane, add
vias near PGND.
4.
Ensure that the high-current paths at PGND
and VIN have short, direct, and wide traces.
5.
Make the connection between the input
capacitor and VIN as short and wide as
possible.
6.
Place the VCC capacitor as close to VCC
and PGND as possible.
7.
Route SW and BST away from sensitive
analog areas.
8.
Use multiple vias to connect the power
planes to the internal layers.
