MP4315GRE-Z

Monolithic Power Systems · DC-DC Converters · QFN-20(4x4)

MP4315GRE-Z from Monolithic Power Systems, in a QFN-20(4x4). 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 MODE input Selects forced continuous conduction mode (FCCM) when pulled high or advanced asynchronous mode (AAM) when pulled low under light loads, and must not be left floating.
2 SYNCIN input Accepts a 350kHz to 1000kHz clock to synchronize the internal oscillator and supports multi-phase operation; connect to GND if unused and do not float.
3 VIN power_in Input supply for the internal control circuitry and the power switch connected to SW, rated 3.3V to 45V, with a decoupling capacitor recommended from VIN to ground.
4 PGND power_in Power ground for the power stage.
5 PGND power_in Power ground for the power stage.
6 BST passive Bootstrap positive supply for the high-side MOSFET; a bypass capacitor must be connected between BST and SW, sized per the datasheet BST diode and resistor section.
7 SW output Switch node, the output of the internal power switch.
8 SW output Switch node, the output of the internal power switch.
9 EN input Enable input that shuts the device down when pulled below 0.85V and enables it when pulled above 1V.
10 PGND power_in Power ground for the power stage.
11 PGND power_in Power ground for the power stage.
12 VIN power_in Input supply for the internal control circuitry and the power switch connected to SW, rated 3.3V to 45V, with a decoupling capacitor recommended from VIN to ground.
13 SYNCO output Outputs a clock 180° out of phase with the internal oscillator (or the inverse of the SYNCIN clock); float if not used.
14 PG output Open-drain power good output that requires a pull-up resistor; it goes high when VOUT is within 93% to 106% of nominal and low when VOUT is above 107.5% or below 91%.
15 NC unconnected Not internally connected, but must be tied to VCC or the output (≥3V) and must not be left floating.
16 VCC power_out Bias supply that provides 4.9V to the internal control circuit and gate drivers, requiring a decoupling capacitor placed close to the pin.
17 AGND power_in Analog ground for the control circuitry.
18 FB input Feedback input connected to the center point of the external resistor divider, with a feedback threshold voltage of about 0.815V.
19 SS passive Soft-start input; a capacitor from SS to GND sets the soft-start time, as the MP4315 sources 6µA into it at start-up to limit inrush current.
20 FREQ input Switching frequency configuration; a resistor from this pin to GND sets fSW per the fSW vs. RFREQ curve in the datasheet.
21 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
