Product details
Overview
CS51411GDR8 from onsemi is a 1.5 A, 260 kHz fixed-frequency buck regulator IC with V² control architecture, external BOOST capacitor support, and SYNC capability. It operates from 4.5 V to 40 V input, delivers ultrafast transient response, and integrates an on-chip NPN power switch for step-down DC-DC conversion in industrial power supplies and embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the CS51411GDR8 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection considerations include its 260 kHz switching frequency, SYNC input compatibility, BOOST-driven NPN saturation voltage ≤0.7 V at 1.5 A, thermal shutdown at 185 °C, and functional pin-compatibility with LT1375 for drop-in replacement in legacy designs.
Technical Context
The CS51411GDR8 implements V² control architecture, where both PWM comparator inputs derive from output voltage feedback - one via fast AC-coupled path (FFB) with slope compensation, the other via slow DC error path (SFB) through the transconductance error amplifier. This decouples transient response from error amplifier bandwidth.
It features cycle-by-cycle current limiting with foldback (1.5 A typical foldback threshold), frequency foldback to 65 kHz under short circuit, and a dedicated SYNC pin accepting TTL-compatible 305–470 kHz external clocks. The BOOST pin enables bootstrapped base drive to minimize NPN saturation voltage and on-chip power dissipation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 260 kHz ±13.5% - enables compact magnetics and EMI filtering; factory-trimmed, no external components required. |
| Output Current | 1.5 A continuous - delivered by integrated NPN transistor with BOOST-assisted saturation. |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 40 V - supports wide industrial input rails including 12 V, 24 V, and 36 V systems. |
| VFB Foldback Threshold | 0.29 V to 0.36 V - triggers frequency and current limit foldback during overload/short circuit to reduce power dissipation. |
| Saturation Voltage | 0.4 V to 1.0 V at 1.5 A - minimized via BOOST pin drive; directly lowers conduction loss and junction temperature. |
| Shutdown Quiescent Current | 20 µA typical - enables low-power sleep mode when SHDNB is pulled low. |
| Thermal Shutdown Trip | 175 °C to 195 °C - protects device under sustained overload; hysteresis of 42 °C prevents oscillation. |
Pinout & Package
CS51411GDR8 is housed in an SOIC-8 (D suffix, Case 751) package with gull-wing leads, Pb-free and RoHS compliant. Thermal pad is not present; standard SOIC-8 PCB footprint applies.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| BOOST | Bootstrap drive supply | Provides elevated base drive voltage to NPN switch; reduces saturation voltage and improves efficiency at high VIN. |
| VIN | Main power input | Supplies collector of internal NPN switch and bias circuitry; rated up to 40 V with −0.3 V reverse tolerance. |
| VSW | Switch emitter node | Connects to inductor; swings negative to −1.0 V (t < 50 ns); requires external catch diode and low-inductance layout. |
| SHDNB | Active-low shutdown | TTL-compatible input; pulls IC into sleep mode (<85 µA) when voltage <1.0 V; internal pull-up active when floating. |
| GND | Power return | Common reference for all internal circuits and power switch emitter; must be low-impedance connection. |
| VFB | Feedback input | Inverting input of error amplifier; regulates output via resistor divider; triggers foldback below 0.29 V. |
| VC | Error amplifier output | Provides access to transconductance amplifier output; used for compensation (e.g., 0.1 µF to GND). |
| SYNC | External clock input | Accepts 305–470 kHz TTL pulses; synchronizes switching to reduce beat frequencies and EMI in multi-rail systems. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| V² control architecture | Enables >10 kHz closed-loop bandwidth and load transient recovery independent of error amplifier speed. |
| BOOST-driven NPN switch | Reduces saturation voltage to ≤0.7 V at 1.5 A, lowering conduction loss and enabling higher efficiency at high VIN. |
| SYNC input with 305–470 kHz range | Allows deterministic timing alignment across multiple converters to suppress subharmonic noise and simplify EMI filtering. |
| Frequency and current foldback | Reduces switching frequency to 65 kHz and peak current to ~1.5 A under short circuit, limiting power dissipation and thermal stress. |
| Soft-start via VC pin | Uses internal error amplifier source current to charge external compensation capacitor; eliminates need for dedicated soft-start pin or circuitry. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1375CS8#PBF | Pin-compatible, same SOIC-8 footprint and pinout; 1.5 A rating, 250 kHz nominal frequency; no BOOST pin - uses external bootstrap diode/capacitor. | Requires external bootstrap network; lacks integrated SYNC input; slightly lower PSRR and reference accuracy. | Preferred where legacy LT1375 design reuse is critical and external bootstrap is acceptable. |
| MP2307DN-LF-Z | Monolithic synchronous buck; 2 A rating, 340 kHz switching; no SYNC or BOOST pins; different pinout and control architecture (current mode). | Higher efficiency due to synchronous rectification; no external catch diode needed; lacks V² transient performance and foldback protection. | Chosen when higher output current, smaller solution size, and synchronous efficiency outweigh need for ultrafast transient response. |
Compared with LT1375CS8#PBF, CS51411GDR8 offers integrated BOOST drive and SYNC capability without external components; compared with MP2307DN-LF-Z, it provides superior transient response and robust foldback protection but requires an external diode and has lower max current.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for the CS51411GDR8?
The CS51411GDR8 supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 40 V on the VIN pin, with a recommended operating range of 4.5 V to 40 V. Exceeding 40 V may damage the internal NPN power switch and bias circuitry. The device includes built-in protection against overvoltage stress during transients, but sustained operation above 40 V is not permitted per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table in the datasheet.
Does the CS51411GDR8 require an external catch diode?
Yes, the CS51411GDR8 requires an external catch diode connected from VSW to GND. Because it uses an NPN transistor with emitter-connected VSW output, the device cannot provide synchronous rectification. A Schottky diode such as 1N5821 or equivalent is recommended to minimize forward voltage drop and improve efficiency, especially at light loads.
How does the BOOST pin improve efficiency in the CS51411GDR8?
The BOOST pin in the CS51411GDR8 supplies elevated base drive voltage to the internal NPN switch, reducing its saturation voltage (typically ≤0.7 V at 1.5 A). This directly lowers conduction loss - especially beneficial at high input voltages - and decreases on-chip power dissipation. A standard 0.1 µF capacitor and 1N4148 diode form the bootstrap network, referenced to the regulated output.
Is the CS51411GDR8 pin-compatible with the LT1375?
Yes, the CS51411GDR8 is functionally pin-compatible with the LT1375 in SOIC-8 packages. Pin assignments for BOOST, VIN, VSW, SHDNB, GND, VFB, VC, and SYNC match LT1375's VIN, VOUT, SW, SHDN, GND, FB, COMP, and SYNC respectively. No PCB changes are required for direct replacement, though minor compensation tuning may optimize performance due to V² vs. voltage-mode differences.
What happens to the CS51411GDR8 during a short-circuit condition?
During a short circuit, the CS51411GDR8 activates dual-foldback protection: VFB falling below 0.29 V reduces switching frequency to ~65 kHz (25% of nominal) and lowers current limit to ~1.5 A. This significantly cuts power dissipation in both the IC and external components. The device remains operational but limits energy transfer, preventing thermal runaway while maintaining safe junction temperatures.
