DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The MP2104 is a 1.7MHz constant frequency,
current mode, PWM step-down converter. The
device integrates a main switch and a
synchronous rectifier for high efficiency without an
external Schottky diode. It is ideal for powering
portable equipment that runs from a single cell
Lithium-Ion (Li+) battery. The MP2104 can supply
600mA of load current from a 2.5V to 6V input
voltage. The output voltage for the MP2104DJ
can be regulated as low as 0.6V, while the output
voltages
of
the
MP2104DJ-1.5
and
MP2104DJ-1.8 are fixed at 1.5V and 1.8V,
respectively. The MP2104 can also run at 100%
duty cycle for low dropout applications.

OPERATION
The MP2104 is a constant frequency current
mode PWM step-down converter. The MP2104
is optimized for low voltage, Li-Ion battery
powered applications where high efficiency and
small size are critical. The MP2104 uses an
external resistor divider to set the output
voltage from 0.6V to 6V. The device integrates
both a main switch and a synchronous rectifier,
which provides high efficiency and eliminates
an external Schottky diode. The MP2104 can
achieve 100% duty cycle. The duty cycle D of a
step-down converter is defined as:
D = TON × fOSC × 100% ≈
VOUT
× 100%
VIN
Where TON is the main switch on time, fOSC is
the oscillator frequency (1.7MHz), VOUT is the
output voltage and VIN is the input voltage.

Current Mode PWM Control
Slope compensated current mode PWM control
provides stable switching and cycle-by-cycle
current limit for superior load and line response
and protection of the internal main switch and
synchronous rectifier. The MP2104 switches at a
constant frequency (1.7MHz) and regulates the
output voltage. During each cycle the PWM
comparator modulates the power transferred to the
load by changing the inductor peak current based
on the feedback error voltage. During normal
operation, the main switch is turned on for a certain
time to ramp the inductor current at each rising
edge of the internal oscillator, and switched off
when the peak inductor current is above the error
voltage. When the main switch is off, the
synchronous rectifier will be turned on immediately
and stay on until either the next cycle starts.
Dropout Operation
The MP2104 allows the main switch to remain on
for more than one switching cycle and increases
the duty cycle while the input voltage is dropping
close to the output voltage. When the duty cycle
reaches 100%, the main switch is held on
continuously to deliver current to the output up to
MP2104 Rev. 1.3
10/4/2005
the PFET current limit. The output voltage then is
the input voltage minus the voltage drop across
the main switch and the inductor.
Short Circuit Protection
The MP2104 has short circuit protection. When
the output is shorted to ground, the oscillator
frequency is reduced to prevent the inductor
current from increasing beyond the PFET current
limit. The PFET current limit is also reduced to
lower the short circuit current. The frequency and
current limit will return to the normal values once
the short circuit condition is removed and the
feedback voltage reaches 0.6V.
Maximum Load current
The MP2104 can operate down to 2.5V input
voltage, however the maximum load current
decreases at lower input due to large IR drop on
the main switch and synchronous rectifier. The
slope compensation signal reduces the peak
inductor current as a function of the duty cycle to
prevent sub-harmonic oscillations at duty cycles
greater than 50%. Conversely the current limit
increases as the duty cycle decreases.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Output Voltage Setting (MP2104DJ)
The external resistor divider sets the output
voltage (see Figure 3). The feedback resistor R1
also sets the feedback loop bandwidth with the
internal compensation capacitor (see Figure 1).
Choose R1 around 300kΩ for optimal transient
response. R2 is then given by:
R2 =
R1
VOUT
−1
0 .6 V
Inductor Selection
A 1µH to 10µH inductor with DC current rating
at least 25% higher than the maximum load
current is recommended for most applications.
For best efficiency, the inductor DC resistance
shall be <200mΩ. See Table 2 for
recommended inductors and manufacturers.
For most designs, the inductance value can be
derived from the following equation:

The maximum inductor peak current is:
IL(MAX ) = ILOAD +

Under light load conditions below 100mA, larger
inductance is recommended for improved
efficiency. Table 3 lists inductors recommended
for this purpose.

MP2104 – 1.7MHz 600mA SYNCHRONOUS STEP-DOWN CONVERTER
Input Capacitor Selection
The input capacitor reduces the surge current
drawn from the input and switching noise from
the device. The input capacitor impedance at
the switching frequency shall be less than input
source impedance to prevent high frequency
switching current passing to the input. Ceramic
capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are
highly recommended because of their low ESR
and small temperature coefficients. For most
applications, a 4.7µF capacitor is sufficient.
PC Board Layout
The high current paths (GND, IN and SW)
should be placed very close to the device with
short, direct and wide traces. Input capacitor C1
needs to be as close as possible to the IN and
GND pins. The external feedback resistors shall
be placed next to the FB pin. Keep the
switching node SW short and away from the
feedback network. Figure 3 illustrates an
example of PCB layout and signal routing.
Output Capacitor Selection
The output capacitor keeps output voltage
ripple small and ensures regulation loop stable.
The output capacitor impedance shall be low at
the switching frequency. Ceramic capacitors
with X5R or X7R dielectrics are recommended.
The output ripple ∆VOUT is approximately:
