PIN FUNCTIONS
SOIC-8
Pin #
Name Description
1 IN
Supply Voltage. The MP1493 operates from a +4.2V to +16V input rail. C1 is needed to
decouple the input rail. Use wide PCB traces and multiple vias to make the connection.
2 GND
System Ground. This pin is the reference ground of the regulated output voltage. For this
reason care must be taken in PCB layout.
3 SW Switch Output. Use wide PCB traces and multiple vias to make the connection.
4 BST
Bootstrap. A capacitor connected between SW and BST pins is required to form a floating
supply across the high-side switch driver.
5 BYP
Internal LDO output. Decouple with a 1µF ceramic capacitor. X7R or X5R grade dielectric
ceramic capacitors are recommended for their stable temperature characteristics.
6 EN
EN=1 to enable the MP1493. For automatic start-up, connect EN pin to VIN with a pull-up
resistor.
7 FB
Feedback. An external resistor divider from the output to GND, tapped to the FB pin, sets
the output voltage.
8 FREQ
Switching frequency setting pin during CCM operation. Connect a resistor R
freq
to IN to set
the switching frequency. An optional 1nF decoupling capacitor can be added to improve any
switching frequency jitter that may be present.
