Product details
Overview
ATA663203-GBQW from Microchip Technology is a 5V, 85 mA automotive-grade linear low-drop voltage regulator in an 8-lead 3×3 mm VDFN package with wettable flanks, designed for LIN slave node power supply in battery-voltage environments (5–28 V). It delivers ±2% output accuracy, operates down to 2 V input, consumes ≤170 μA quiescent current without load, and integrates undervoltage reset (NRES, 4 ms delay) and overtemperature/short-circuit protection. It serves as the primary VCC source for microcontrollers in automotive convenience electronics.
For engineers reviewing the ATA663203-GBQW datasheet, ATA663203-GBQW pinout, ATA663203-GBQW application, or ATA663203-GBQW equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, validated package mapping (VDFN-8), confirmed electrical parameters (5.0 V ±2%, 85 mA, 9–170 μA IQ), real-world operating mode behavior (Sleep/Silent/Active), and two manufacturer-confirmed alternative regulators with documented differences.
Technical Context
This device implements a PMOS-based LDO architecture with internal voltage reference, undervoltage detection, and thermal shutdown. It supports three operational states: Active Mode (VCC enabled, 5.0 V ±2% regulated output), Sleep Mode (VCC switched off, 9 μA typical VS current), and Silent Mode (VCC active but LIN transceiver disabled, 47 μA typical VS current). Unlike SBC variants, ATA663203-GBQW contains no LIN transceiver circuitry - it is a standalone regulator only.
It requires external decoupling: 1.8 μF MLC + 100 nF ceramic capacitor at VCC, and connects its exposed thermal pad (EP) directly to PCB GND for thermal management. The NRES pin is open-drain, driven from VS (not VCC), ensuring reset assertion even during VCC collapse.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 5.0 V ±2% - stable supply for automotive MCUs; maintains regulation across temperature and load. |
| Max Output Current | 85 mA - sufficient to power typical LIN slave microcontrollers and peripheral logic. |
| Quiescent Current | ≤170 μA (no load, 2–28 V input) - enables ultra-low-power sleep operation in always-on vehicle modules. |
| Input Voltage Range | 5 V to 28 V DC - compatible with 12 V automotive battery systems including load-dump transients. |
| Undervoltage Reset | NRES open-drain output, 4 ms reset pulse - asserts system reset if VCC drops below 4.2 V (typical). |
| Protection Features | Short-circuit and overtemperature shutdown - prevents damage during fault conditions; auto-recovery with thermal hysteresis. |
| Package | 8-Lead 3×3 mm VDFN with wettable flanks (Moisture Sensitivity Level 1) - supports automated optical solder-joint inspection. |
Pinout & Package
ATA663203-GBQW uses an 8-lead 3×3 mm VDFN package with exposed thermal pad (EP), rated MSL-1. The EP must be soldered to a solid GND copper pour for thermal performance and EMI control.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | NRES | Open-drain undervoltage reset output; pulled low when VCC < 4.2 V (typical); driven from VS rail. |
| 2 | NC | No connection - internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND per layout guidelines. |
| 3 | NC | No connection - internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND per layout guidelines. |
| 4 | TXD | No function - not connected internally; electrically isolated from all circuitry. |
| 5 | GND | Main ground reference and thermal path; connects internally to exposed pad (EP). |
| 6 | NC | No connection - internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND per layout guidelines. |
| 7 | VS | Main input supply pin - accepts 5–28 V battery-derived voltage; powers internal regulator and protection circuits. |
| 8 | VCC | Regulated 5.0 V ±2% output - supplies MCU and peripherals; current-limited to 85 mA. |
| EP | Exposed Thermal Pad | Internally connected to GND; mandatory connection to large PCB GND plane for thermal dissipation and EMI reduction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 9 μA in Sleep Mode (VCC off), ≤170 μA across full 2–28 V input range - meets automotive "always-on" standby requirements. |
| Wide-input automotive operation | 5–28 V input with robustness to cold-crank (down to 2 V transient) - eliminates need for pre-regulator in 12 V systems. |
| Integrated undervoltage reset | 4 ms NRES pulse triggered by VCC < 4.2 V - ensures deterministic MCU reset before brownout-induced corruption. |
| Thermal and short-circuit protection | Auto-shutdown at TVCCoff; recovery after Thys hysteresis - enables reliable operation under sustained overload. |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C ambient), ISO 7637-2/3 compliant - qualified for under-hood and body-control applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ATA663201-GBQW | 3.3 V ±2% output, identical pinout and quiescent current profile. | Used where MCU or peripheral requires 3.3 V instead of 5 V; shares same thermal and protection behavior. | Select ATA663201-GBQW when interfacing with 3.3 V logic families or low-voltage MCUs; no PCB change required. |
| TLV73350PDBVR | 5 V ±1% output, 300 mA capability, 55 μA IQ, SOT-23-5 package; lacks AEC-Q100 qualification and NRES pin. | Suitable for non-automotive industrial or consumer designs requiring higher current or tighter tolerance. | Choose TLV73350PDBVR only for non-automotive applications; requires redesign for NRES functionality and automotive reliability validation. |
Compared with ATA663201-GBQW, ATA663203-GBQW provides 5 V output for legacy 5 V MCU interfaces, while TLV73350PDBVR offers higher current and tighter tolerance but omits automotive-grade reset signaling and qualification - making ATA663203-GBQW the sole drop-in solution for AEC-Q100-compliant 5 V LIN node power.

FAQ
What is the exact output voltage tolerance of the ATA663203-GBQW?
The ATA663203-GBQW delivers a nominal 5.0 V output with a tolerance of ±2% across temperature (−40°C to +125°C), load (0–85 mA), and input voltage (5–28 V). This specification is guaranteed in the datasheet (DS20006075C, Table 2-1) and applies to all units shipped in the GBQW tape-and-reel packaging variant.
Does the ATA663203-GBQW include a LIN transceiver?
No, the ATA663203-GBQW is a standalone 5 V voltage regulator only. It does not contain LIN transceiver circuitry. That functionality is present only in the SBC variants (e.g., ATA663254-GBQW). Pins TXD, RXD, LIN, and EN on ATA663203-GBQW are NC (no connect) and must not be used for communication.
How does the NRES pin behave during a VCC fault?
The NRES pin on the ATA663203-GBQW is open-drain and driven from the VS supply (not VCC), so it remains functional even if VCC collapses. When VCC drops below 4.2 V (typical), NRES pulls low for exactly 4 ms - providing a clean, guaranteed reset pulse to the MCU independent of VCC rail stability.
Can the ATA663203-GBQW operate with input voltage below 5 V?
Yes - the ATA663203-GBQW maintains regulation and specified quiescent current (≤170 μA) down to 2.0 V input, though output voltage drops linearly below VOUT + VDO (~5.3 V). Below ~4.2 V input, VCC falls out of regulation and NRES asserts. This behavior is documented in Figure 1-9 and Section 1.4 of DS20006075C.
Is the exposed thermal pad (EP) on the ATA663203-GBQW required to be connected?
Yes, the exposed thermal pad (EP) on the ATA663203-GBQW must be soldered to a solid GND copper pour on the PCB. It is internally connected to GND and serves as the primary thermal conduction path. Omitting this connection violates Microchip's thermal design requirements and risks exceeding junction temperature limits under 85 mA load.
