PIN FUNCTIONS
Pin #
Name
1
NC
2
AGND1 Analog Ground 1.
3
PWM1 Driver Logic Input 1. Drive PWM1 with the signal that controls the MP8042 OUT1. Drive PWM
high to turn on the high side switch; drive PWM low to turn on the low-side switch.
4
STBY
Standby Input. Default low (internal pull-down). If driven high, the output of drivers is
determined by the PWM1/2. If driven low, the output of both drivers is high impedance.
5
PWM2 Driver Logic Input 2. Drive PWM2 with the signal that controls the MP8042 OUT2. Drive PWM
high to turn on the high-side switch; drive PWM low to turn on the low-side switch.
6
FAULT
Fault Output. A low output at
FAULT
indicates that the MP8042 has detected an over
temperature, over current condition or the voltage to the driver is less than 5V. This output is
open drain.
7
SHDN Shutdown Input. When low, both channels will be shut off.
8
AGND2 Analog Ground 2.
9
NC
No Connect.
10
VDR2
Gate Drive Supply Bypass 2. The voltage at VDR2 is supplied from an internal regulator from
VDD2. VDR2 powers the internal circuitry and internal MOSFET gate drive for the OUT2
stage. Bypass VDR2 to AGND2 with a 0.1
μ
F to 10
μ
F capacitor.
11
BST2
Bootstrap Supply 2. BST2 powers the high-side gate of the OUT2 stage. Connect a 0.1
μ
F or
greater capacitor between BST2 and OUT2.
12
PGND2 Power Ground 2. Connect the exposed pad on bottom side to the ground plane.
13
OUT2
Switched Output 2. Connect the output LC filter to OUT2. OUT2 is valid approximately 100μs
after VDD2 goes high.
14
VDD2
Power Supply Input 2. Connect VDD2 to the positive side of the input power supply. Bypass
VDD2 to AGND2 as close to the IC as possible.
15
NC
No Connect.
16
VDD1
Power Supply Input 1. Connect VDD1 to the positive side of the input power supply. Bypass
VDD1 to GND1 as close to the IC as possible.
17
OUT1
Switched Output 1. Connect the output LC filter to OUT1. OUT1 is valid approximately 100μs
after VDD1 goes high.
18
PGND1 Power Ground 1. Connect the exposed pad on bottom side to the ground plane.
19
BST1
Bootstrap Supply 1. BST1 powers the high-side gate of the OUT1 stage. Connect a 0.1
μ
F or
greater capacitor between BST1 and OUT1.
20
VDR1
Gate Drive Supply Bypass 1. The voltage at VDR1 is supplied from an internal regulator from
VDD1. VDR1 powers the internal circuitry and internal MOSFET gate drive for the OUT1
stage. Bypass VDR1 to AGND1 with a 0.1
μ
F to 10
μ
F capacitor.
