Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: T J is calculated from the ambient temperature T A and power dissipation P D according to the
following formula: T J = T A + (P D ) x (250°C/W).
Note 3: 100% production test at +25°C. Specifications over the temperature range are guaranteed by
design and characterization.
Note 4: Dynamic supply current is higher due to the gate charge being delivered at the switching
frequency.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The MT9216 is a high performance, 800mA, the input voltage minus the R DS(ON) drop of the
1.5MHz monolithic step-down converter. The high-side MOSFET.
MT9216 requires only three external power The internal error amplifier and compensation
components (C IN , C OUT and L). The adjustable provides excellent transient response, load, and
version can be programmed with external line regulation. Soft start function prevents input
feedback to any voltage, ranging from 0.6V to inrush current and output overshoot during start
the input voltage. up.
At dropout operation, the converter duty cycle
increases to 100% and the output voltage tracks
