MP2330CGTL-P

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Overview

The MP2330CGTL-P is a fully integrated high-frequency synchronous rectification step-down converter from Monolithic Power Systems. It features an internal power MOSFET with 75mΩ/40mΩ on-resistance and supports a wide input voltage range of 4.2V to 24V. The device delivers a continuous output current of 3A with a fixed switching frequency of 650kHz in forced CCM mode. It operates with a low quiescent current of 200µA and includes programmable soft-start, power good indication, and comprehensive protection mechanisms. The component is housed in a compact SOT583 (1.6mm x 2.1mm) package and is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Feature Summary

• Programmable soft-start time to control inrush current during startup
• Integrated power good indicator for system status monitoring

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Applications

• Industrial automation systems requiring stable 24V bus conversion
• Automotive infotainment and telematics units
• Point-of-load regulation for digital signal processors
• Consumer electronics and set-top boxes

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'P' indicates the tape and reel packaging configuration as per manufacturer standards. Confirm AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification requirements align with automotive application needs. Ensure the SOT583 footprint matches the target PCB layout constraints. Validate that the fixed 650kHz frequency meets electromagnetic interference specifications for the intended environment.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed switching frequency is required to simplify filter design and reduce electromagnetic interference variability compared to variable frequency modes. The forced CCM operation ensures stable performance under light loads but may result in lower efficiency at very low currents compared to pulse-skipping modes. The 3A current rating suits applications needing moderate power density within a small form factor.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Part Context

This part belongs to the MP2330 series of synchronous buck converters. Unlike the MP2330H variant which operates at 1.2MHz, the MP2330C series utilizes a 650kHz frequency. The CGTL-P designation specifies the commercial temperature grade, SOT583 package, and reel packaging format. It serves as a compact solution for general-purpose DC-DC conversion tasks.

Voltage Regulators - DC DC Switching Regulators Replacement Considerations

MP2330HGTL-P offers similar functionality but operates at a higher 1.2MHz switching frequency, allowing for smaller passive components. MP2330GTL-Z represents the same electrical specification but may differ in packaging or qualification status. Verify pin compatibility and thermal characteristics when substituting.
