DESCRIPTION

The MP8712 is a high-frequency, synchronous, rectified, step-down, switch-mode converter. The MP8712 offers a fully integrated solution that achieves 12A of continuous and 15A of peak output current with excellent load and line regulation over a wide input supply range.

Constant-on-time (COT) control operation provides fast transient response. An open-drain power good pin (PG) indicates that the output voltage is in the nominal range. Full protection features include over-voltage protection (OVP), over-current protection (OCP), and thermal shutdown.

The MP8712 is available in a QFN-14 (3mmx4mm) package.
