DESCRIPTION

The MP29296 is a monolithic synchronous buck

regulator.

The

device

integrates

130mΩ

MOSFETS that provide 2A continuous load

current over a wide operating input voltage of

4.75V to 23V. Current mode control provides

fast transient response and cycle-by-cycle

current limit.

An adjustable soft-start prevents inrush current

at turn-on. Shutdown mode drops the supply

current to 1µA.

This device, available in an 8-pin SOIC

package, provides a very compact system

solution with minimal reliance on external

components.
