MP1584EN-LF-Z

MP1584EN-LF-Z is a Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) non-synchronous step-down converter in SOIC-8 with exposed pad, tape and reel — for 12 V and 24 V input rails in industrial controls, automotive accessories and compact power modules: 4.5 V to 28 V input, adjustable output from 0.8 V, 3 A continuous output current and programmable switching frequency from 100 kHz to 1.5 MHz. The 1.5 MHz capability is the selection point: it shrinks the inductor and output capacitors versus 150 kHz-class converters such as the LM2596, which is why the MP1584 anchors the ubiquitous miniature buck modules. Selection advice: the EN-LF-Z code is the SOIC-8 lead-free tape-and-reel order form — budget exposed-pad copper pour for sustained full-load operation, and for efficiency-critical new designs compare synchronous 3 A bucks before freezing the BOM. Parameters verified against the MPS official MP1584 product documentation.
