MP8770C Step-Down Converter with Forced CCM Monolithic Power Systems MP8770C Step-Down Converter with Forced CCM is a fully integrated, high-frequency, synchronous rectified step-down switch-mode converter with internal power MOSFETs. This synchronous converter provides a very compact solution to achieve 8A of continuous output current with excellent load and line regulation over a wide input range. The MP8770C converter offers fast load transient response, easy loop designs, very tight output regulation using Constant-on-Time (COT) control operation. This step-down converter offers full protection features that include Over-Current Protection (OCP), Short-Circuit Protection (SCP), Under-Voltage Protection (UVP), and thermal shutdown.
