MP1484EN-LF-Z

Monolithic Power Systems · DC-DC Converters · SOIC-8-EP

MP1484EN-LF-Z from Monolithic Power Systems, in a SOIC-8-EP. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 BS power_in High-side gate drive boost input that supplies the drive for the high-side N-Channel MOSFET; connect a 0.01µF or greater capacitor from SW to BS.
2 IN power_in Power input that supplies the IC and the step-down converter switches and must be driven from a 4.75V to 18V source.
3 SW power_out Power switching output node that supplies power to the output through the LC filter, with a capacitor required from SW to BS to power the high-side switch.
4 GND power_in Ground pin, to which the exposed pad on the package backside must also be connected.
5 FB input Feedback input that senses the output voltage through a resistive divider and regulates it to a feedback threshold of 0.925V.
6 COMP passive Compensation node for the regulation loop, where a series RC network is connected from COMP to GND and an additional capacitor may be required.
7 EN input Digital enable input that turns the regulator on when driven high and off when driven low, and is attached to IN through a 100kΩ pull-up resistor for automatic startup.
8 SS input Soft-start control input where a capacitor from SS to GND sets the soft-start period (0.1µF gives 15ms), and leaving it unconnected disables soft-start.
9 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
