OPERATION
PWM Operation
continuous-conduction-mode (CCM). The CCM
operation is shown in Figure 2. When VFB is
The MP8758 is fully integrated synchronous
rectified step-down switch mode converter.
Constant-on-time (COT) control is employed to
provide fast transient response and easy loop
stabilization. At the beginning of each cycle, the
high-side MOSFET (HS-FET) is turned ON when
the feedback voltage (VFB) is below the reference
voltage (VREF), which indicates insufficient output
voltage. The ON period is determined by both the
output voltage and input voltage to make the
switching frequency fairy constant over input
voltage range.
below VREF, HS-MOSFET is turned on for a fixed
interval which is determined by one- shot on-
timer. The one shot timer is controlled by input
and output voltage so that the switching
frequency could be fairly fixed at 500kHz for
different input/output conditions. When the HS-
MOSFET is turned off, the LS-MOSFET is turned
on until next period.
In CCM mode operation, the switching frequency
is fairly constant and it is called PWM mode.
Light-Load Operation
After the ON period elapses, the HS-FET is
turned off, or becomes OFF state. It is turned ON
again when VFB drops below VREF. By repeating
operation this way, the converter regulates the
output voltage. The integrated low-side MOSFET
(LS-FET) is turned on when the HS-FET is in its
OFF state to minimize the conduction loss. There
will be a dead short between input and GND if
both HS-FET and LS-FET are turned on at the
same time. It’s called shoot-through. In order to
avoid shoot-through, a dead-time (DT) is
internally generated between HS-FET off and LS-
FET on, or LS-FET off and HS-FET on.
With the load decreases, the inductor current
decreases too. Once the inductor current touches
zero, the operation is transition from continuous-
conduction-mode (CCM) to discontinuous-
conduction-mode (DCM).
The light load operation is shown in Figure 3.
When VFB is below VREF, HS-MOSFET is turned
on for a fixed interval. When the HS-MOSFET is
turned off, the LS-MOSFET is turned on until the
inductor current reaches zero. In DCM operation,
the VFB does not reach VREF when the inductor
current is approaching zero. The LS-FET driver
turns into tri-state (high Z) whenever the inductor
current reaches zero. As a result, the efficiency
at light load condition is greatly improved. At light
load condition, the HS-FET is not turned ON as
frequently as at heavy load condition. This is
called skip mode.
An internal compensation is applied for COT
control to make a more stable operation even
when ceramic capacitors are used as output
capacitors, this internal compensation will then
improve the jitter performance without affect the
line or load regulation.
At light load or no load condition, the output
drops very slowly and the MP8758 reduces the
switching frequency naturally and then high
efficiency is achieved at light load.
Heavy-Load Operation

Figure 3—Light Load Operation
When the output current is high and the inductor
current is always above zero amps, it is called

As the output current increases from the light
resistor. Ceramic capacitors usually can not be
used as output capacitor.
load condition, the time period within which the
current modulator regulates becomes shorter.
The HS-FET is turned ON more frequently.
Hence, the switching frequency increases
correspondingly. The output current reaches the
critical level when the current modulator time is
zero. The critical level of the output current is
determined as follows:
To realize the stability, the ESR value should be
chosen as follow:

The MP8758 has built in internal ramp

even without the help of output capacitor’s ESR;
and thus the pure ceramic capacitor solution can
be applicant. The pure ceramic capacitor solution
can significantly reduce the output ripple, total

Jitter and FB Ramp Slope
Figure 6 shows a typical output circuit in PWM
mode without an external ramp circuit. Turn to
application information section for design steps
without external compensation.
Jitter occurs in both PWM and skip modes when
noise in the VFB ripple propagates a delay to the
HS-FET driver, as shown in Figures 4 and 5.
Jitter can affect system stability, with noise
immunity proportional to the steepness of VFB’s
downward slope. However, VFB ripple does not
directly affect noise immunity.

As described in Figure 5, VSLOPE2 in the skip mode
is lower than that is in the PWM mode, so it is
reasonable that the jitter in the skip mode is
larger. If one wants a system with less jitter
during light load condition, the values of the VFB
resistors should not be too big, however, that will
decrease the light load efficiency.

12V.when EN is connected with VIN through a
pull-up resistor or a resistive voltage divider, the
resistance selection should ensure the maximum
pull up current less than 1mA.
Over Current Protection
MP8758 has cycle-by-cycle over current limiting
control. The current-limit circuit employs a
"valley" current-sensing algorithm. The part use
the Rds(on) of the low side MOSFET as a
current-sensing element. If the magnitude of the
current-sense signal is above the current-limit
threshold, the PWM is not allowed to initiate a
new cycle.
If using a resistive voltage divider and VIN higher
than 12V, the allowed minimum pull-up resistor
RUP should meet the following equation:

is determined by input UVLO, and the minimum
resistor value is:
V (V)−12
IN
(11)
RUP (kΩ) >
1( m A )
Since the comparison is done during the high
side MOSFET OFF and low side MOSFET ON
state, the OC trip level sets the valley level of the
inductor current. Thus, the load current at over-
current threshold, IOC, can be calculated as
follows:
A typical pull-up resistor is 499kꢀ.
Soft Start
The MP8758 employs soft start (SS) mechanism
to ensure smooth output during power-up. When
the EN pin becomes high, the internal reference
voltage ramps up gradually; hence, the output
voltage ramps up smoothly, as well. Once the
reference voltage reaches the target value, the
soft start finishes and it enters into steady state
operation.
ΔI

IOC = I_limit +

In an over-current condition, the current to the
load exceeds the current to the output capacitor;
thus the output voltage tends to fall off.
Eventually, it will end up with crossing the under
voltage protection threshold and shutdown. And
fault latching can be reset by EN going low or
Power-cycling of VIN.
If the output is pre-biased to a certain voltage
during startup, the IC will disable the switching of
both high-side and low-side switches until the
voltage on the internal reference exceeds the
sensed output voltage at the FB node.
Over/Under-Voltage Protection (OVP/UVP)
MP8758 monitors a resistor divided feedback
voltage to detect over and under voltage. When
the feedback voltage becomes higher than 115%
of the target voltage, the controller will enter
Dynamic Regulation Period. During this period,
the LS will off when the LS current goes to -1A,
this will then discharge the output and try to keep
it within the normal range. If the dynamic
regulation can not limit the increasing of the Vo,
once the feedback voltage becomes higher than
130% of the feedback voltage, the OVP
comparator output goes high and the circuit
latches as the high-side MOSFET driver off
Power Good (PG)
The MP8758 has power-good (PGOOD) output
used to indicate whether the output voltage of the
regulator is ready or not. The PGOOD pin is the
open drain of a MOSFET. It should be connected
to VCC or other voltage source through a resistor
(e.g. 100k,). After the input voltage is applied, the
MOSFET is turned on so that the PGOOD pin is
pulled to GND before SS is ready. After FB
voltage reaches 95% of REF voltage, the
PGOOD pin is pulled high after a delay. The
PGOOD delay time is 0.45ms.

and the low-side MOSFET turn on acting as an -
1A current source.
MP8758 discharges the output when EN=low, or
the controller is turned off by the protection
functions (UVP & OCP, OCP, OVP, UVLO, and
thermal shutdown). The part discharges the
output using an internal 6ꢀ MOSFET.
When the feedback voltage becomes lower than
60% of the target voltage, the UVP comparator
output goes high if the UV still occurs after 26us
delay; then the fault latch will be triggered---
latches HS off and LS on; the LS FET keeps on
until the inductor current goes zero. Also fault
latching can be reset by EN going low or Power-
cycling of VIN.
UVLO Protection
The MP8758 has under-voltage lock-out
protection (UVLO). When the VCC voltage is
higher than the UVLO rising threshold voltage,
the part will be powered up. It shuts off when the
VCC voltage is lower than the UVLO falling
threshold voltage. This is non-latch protection. If
an application requires a higher under-voltage
lockout (UVLO), use the EN pin as shown in
Figure 9 to adjust the input voltage UVLO by
using two external resistors. It is recommended
to use the enable resistors to set the UVLO
falling threshold (VSTOP) above 4.5V. The rising
threshold (VSTART) should be set to provide
enough hysteresis to allow for any input supply
variations.

Thermal Shutdown
Thermal shutdown is employed in the MP8758.
The junction temperature of the IC is internally
monitored. If the junction temperature exceeds
the threshold value (typical 150ºC), the converter
shuts off. This is a non-latch protection. There is
about 25ºC hysteresis. Once the junction
temperature drops to about 125ºC, it initiates a
SS.

VRAMP besides R divider as shown in Figure 11.
The VRAMP can be calculated as shown in
equation (5). R2 should be chosen reasonably, a

current loss while too large R2 makes the FB
noise sensitive. It is recommended to choose a
Figure10—Simplified Circuit of POS Capacitor
First, choose a value for R2. R2 should be
chosen reasonably, a small R2 will lead to
considerable quiescent current loss while too
large R2 makes the FB noise sensitive. Typically,
set the current through R2 at around 5-10uA will
make a good balance between system stability
and also the no load loss. Then R1 is determined
as follow with the output ripple considered:

condition, etc., its value on the skip mode would
be lower than that of the PWM mode, which
means the load regulation is strictly related to the
ΔVOUT is the output ripple, refer to equation (23).
Other than feedback resistors, a feed forward
cap C4 is usually applied for a better transient
performance, especially when ceramic caps are
applied for their small capacitance, a cap value
around 100pF-1nF is suggested for a better
transient while also keep the system stable with
enough noise immunity. In case the system is
noise sensitive because of the zero induced by
this cap, add a resistor-usually named as R9
between this cap and FB to form a pole, this
resistor can be set according to equation (16) as
in the following section.

VFB(AVG). If one wants to gets a better load or line
regulation, a lower Vramp is suggested, as long
as the criterion shown in equation (7) can be met.

deduced from the equation below.

than C4 for better DC blocking performance, and
should also not larger than 0.47uF considering
start up performance. In case one wants to use

Where ΔIL is the peak-to-peak inductor ripple

The output voltage ripple caused by ESR is very
small. Therefore, an external ramp is needed to
stabilize the system. The external ramp can be
generated through resistor R4 and capacitor C4.
The inductor should not saturate under the
maximum inductor peak current, where the peak
inductor current can be calculated by:
In the case of POSCAP capacitors, the ESR
dominates the impedance at the switching
frequency. The ramp voltage generated from the
ESR is high enough to stabilize the system.
Therefore, an external ramp is not needed. A
minimum ESR value around 12mꢀ is required to
ensure stable operation of the converter. For
simplification, the output ripple can be
approximated as:

Maximum output capacitor limitation should be
also considered in design application. MP8758
has an around 1.6ms soft-start time period. If the
output capacitor value is too large, the output
voltage can’t reach the design value during the
soft-start time, and then it will fail to regulate. The
maximum output capacitor value Co_max can be
limited approximately by:
4. Keep the switching node SW short and away
from the feedback network.
5. The external feedback resistors should be
placed next to the FB pin. Make sure that
there is no via on the FB trace.
CO _MAX = (ILIM_ AVG −IOUT )× Tss / VOUT
(25)
6. Keep the BST voltage path as short as
possible.
Where, ILIM_AVG is the average start-up current
during soft-start period. Tss is the soft-start time.
7. Keep the IN and PGND pads connected with
large copper and use at least two layers for
IN and PGND trace to achieve better thermal
performance. Also, add several Vias with
10mil_drill/18mil_copper_width close to the
IN and PGND pads to help on thermal
dissipation.
Inductor
The inductor is necessary to supply constant
current to the output load while being driven by
the switched input voltage. A larger-value
inductor will result in less ripple current that will
result in lower output ripple voltage. However, a
larger-value inductor will have a larger physical
footprint, higher series resistance, and/or lower
saturation current. A good rule for determining
the inductance value is to design the peak-to-
peak ripple current in the inductor to be in the
range of 30% to 40% of the maximum output
current, and that the peak inductor current is
below the maximum switch current limit. The
inductance value can be calculated by:
8. Four-layer layout is strongly recommended to
achieve better thermal performance.
