MP23070N Datasheet – Monolithic Synchronous Buck Regulator
3A, 23V, 340KHz Synchronous Rectified Step-Down Converter
MP23070N overview
The MP23070N is a 3A, 23V, 340KHz Synchronous Rectified Step-Down Converter made by Monolithic Power Systems, supplied in an SOIC 8N Pin Type package. The absolute maximum ratings table on this page lists the 3 limits from the manufacturer's datasheet that must not be exceeded. This page brings together the MP23070N pinout and maximum ratings, with the full datasheet PDF to preview below or download.
The MP2307 is a monolithic synchronous buck regulator. The device integrates 100mΩ MOSFETS that provide 3A of 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 and in shutdown mode, the supply current drops below 1µA. This device, available in an 8-pin SOIC package, provides a very compact system solution with minimal reliance on external components.

MP23070N pinout

| Pin | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | BS | High-Side Gate Drive Boost Input. BS supplies the drive for the high-side N-Channel MOSFET switch. Connect a 0.01µF or greater capacitor from SW to BS to power the high side switch. |
| 2 | IN | Power Input. IN supplies the power to the IC, as well as the step-down converter switches. Drive IN with a 4.75V to 23V power source. Bypass IN to GND with a suitably large capacitor to eliminate noise on the input to the IC. See Input Capacitor. |
| 3 | SW | Power Switching Output. SW is the switching node that supplies power to the output. Connect the output LC filter from SW to the output load. Note that a capacitor is required from SW to BS to power the high-side switch. |
| 4 | GND | Ground (Connect the exposed pad to Pin 4). |
| 5 | FB | Feedback Input. FB senses the output voltage and regulates it. Drive FB with a resistive voltage divider connected to it from the output voltage. The feedback threshold is 0.925V. See Setting the Output Voltage. |
| 6 | COMP | Compensation Node. COMP is used to compensate the regulation control loop. Connect a series RC network from COMP to GND. In some cases, an additional capacitor from COMP to GND is required. See Compensation Components. |
| 7 | EN | Enable Input. EN is a digital input that turns the regulator on or off. Drive EN high to turn on the regulator; low to turn it off. Attach to IN with a 100kΩ pull up resistor for automatic startup. |
| 8 | SS | Soft-Start Control Input. SS controls the soft-start period. Connect a capacitor from SS to GND to set the soft-start period. A 0.1µF capacitor sets the soft-start period to 15ms. To disable the soft-start feature, leave SS unconnected. |
