DESCRIPTION

The MPM3606 is a synchronous rectified, step-

down converter module with built-in power

MOSFETs, inductor and two capacitors. It

offers a very compact solution with only 5

external components to achieve a 0.6A

continuous output current with excellent load

and line regulation over a wide input supply

range. The MPM3606 operates at 2MHz

switching frequency, which provides fast load

transient response. External AAM pin provides

selectable power save mode or forced PWM

mode.

Full protection features include over-current

protection and thermal shut down.

MPM3606 eliminates design and manufacturing

risks while dramatically improving time to

market.

The MPM3606 is available in a space-saving

QFN-20 (3mmx5mmx1.6mm) package.
