Product details
Overview
CS51412EDR8G from onsemi is a 1.5 A, 260 kHz fixed-frequency buck regulator IC with external BIAS supply capability, V² control architecture, and integrated NPN power switch. It operates from 4.5 V to 40 V input, delivers regulated output via external inductor/diode, and targets high-efficiency DC-DC conversion in industrial power supplies and automotive subsystems.
For engineers reviewing the CS51412EDR8G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its BIAS-enabled efficiency optimization at high VIN/low IOUT, 0.29 V frequency foldback threshold, thermal shutdown at 175–195 °C, and SOIC-8 package compatibility with LT1376-based designs.
Technical Context
The CS51412EDR8G implements V² control architecture, using the output voltage ripple as both DC setpoint and AC control ramp-enabling ultrafast transient response independent of error amplifier bandwidth. Its transconductance error amplifier (6.4 mA/V) drives the VC pin for PWM comparator input, with internal 1.270 V reference and 500 kHz unity-gain bandwidth.
This device integrates an on-chip NPN power switch rated for ≥1.5 A continuous output, biased via BOOST pin for saturation voltage minimization (0.4–1.0 V typical), and supports external BIAS supply (3.3–6.0 V) to reduce quiescent dissipation-particularly beneficial under high-input-voltage, light-load conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 260 kHz ±13% - enables compact magnetics and EMI filtering; line regulation ≤0.15%/V ensures stable operation across input range. |
| Output Current | 1.5 A minimum - sustained by integrated NPN switch with 0.4–1.0 V saturation voltage at 1.5 A, reducing conduction loss. |
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 40 V - supports wide industrial and automotive battery-fed inputs without pre-regulation. |
| BIAS Supply Range | 3.3 V to 6.0 V - powers internal circuitry independently to cut quiescent dissipation; not present in sync-capable variants. |
| Frequency Foldback Threshold | 0.29–0.36 V on VFB - triggers 4:1 frequency reduction and current limit foldback (0.9–2.1 A) during overload/short-circuit. |
| Thermal Shutdown Trip | 175–195 °C - protects die integrity; hysteresis ≥42 °C prevents oscillation near trip point. |
| Shutdown Quiescent Current | 20 µA typical - achieved via active-low SHDNB pin with internal pull-up; draws <85 µA in sleep mode. |
Pinout & Package
CS51412EDR8G is housed in an SOIC-8 (Case 751) package with standard 1.27 mm pitch, 5.0 mm × 6.2 mm body, and exposed pad for thermal relief (not electrically connected). Pin 1 is marked with a dot or notch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - BOOST | Bootstrap drive node | Provides elevated base drive to NPN switch; connects to external capacitor-diode network to minimize VCE(sat) and improve efficiency. |
| 2,3,4 - VIN | Main power input | Supplies collector of internal NPN switch and bias rails; accepts 4.5–40 V; multiple pins reduce trace resistance and thermal stress. |
| 5 - VSW | Switch emitter node | Connects to inductor; swings negative to −1.0 V (t < 50 ns); requires catch diode and short PCB routing to limit EMI. |
| 6 - BIAS | External bias rail input | Enables 3.3–6.0 V auxiliary supply to power control circuitry-reducing VIN-derived dissipation and improving light-load efficiency. |
| 7 - GND | Power return | Common reference for all internal circuits and switch emitter; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling. |
| 8 - VFB | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider from output; 0.29 V threshold initiates foldback protection; input bias current ≤0.1 µA preserves accuracy. |
| NC (Pins 9–18) | No connection | Not bonded in SOIC-8 variant; unused in this package; must remain unconnected per datasheet. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| V² Control Architecture | Delivers ultrafast load transient response without requiring high-bandwidth error amplifier compensation-enables stable loop with only 0.1 µF VC-to-GND capacitor. |
| External BIAS Capability | Reduces IC power dissipation by powering control circuitry from regulated output or auxiliary rail (3.3–6.0 V), improving efficiency >5% at VIN = 24 V, IOUT < 100 mA. |
| Frequency & Current Foldback | Under VFB < 0.29 V, switching frequency drops to 65 kHz and peak current limit folds to ~1.5 A-limiting power dissipation and protecting switch/diode during short-circuit. |
| Soft-Start via VC Pin | Uses error amplifier output source current (15–35 µA) charging external VC capacitor to ramp output voltage gradually-eliminates need for dedicated soft-start pin or circuitry. |
| Thermal Shutdown + Hysteresis | Triggers at 175–195 °C junction temperature with ≥42 °C hysteresis-prevents thermal cycling and ensures safe recovery before restart. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1376CS8#PBF | Same SOIC-8 pinout, 1.5 A rating, 250 kHz nominal frequency; no BIAS pin-internal bias derived solely from VIN. | Lacks BIAS efficiency optimization; higher quiescent dissipation at high VIN/low IOUT; no foldback hysteresis spec. | Choose when legacy design reuse is critical and BIAS efficiency gain is unnecessary. |
| MP2315DJ-LF-Z | 2 A rating, 500 kHz switching, integrated MOSFETs; no BOOST/BIAST pins; requires external compensation. | Higher current, smaller solution size, but lacks V² control-slower transient response and more complex loop tuning. | Prefer for new designs needing >1.5 A or higher frequency; avoid if V²'s fast transient response is required. |
Compared with LT1376CS8#PBF, CS51412EDR8G adds BIAS-driven efficiency and tighter foldback protection; versus MP2315DJ-LF-Z, it trades higher integration for superior transient performance and simpler design-making it optimal for reliability-critical, medium-current industrial converters.

FAQ
What is the function of the BIAS pin on the CS51412EDR8G?
The BIAS pin on the CS51412EDR8G accepts an external 3.3 V to 6.0 V supply to power the internal control circuitry-bypassing VIN-derived bias current. This reduces total IC power dissipation, especially at high input voltages and light loads. When unused, the BIAS pin must be left floating; connecting it to ground or VIN will disable the feature or cause malfunction. The CS51412EDR8G datasheet specifies 6.0 mA to 40 mA boost operating current per ampere of output current, confirming BIAS's role in optimizing efficiency.
Does the CS51412EDR8G support synchronization with an external clock?
No, the CS51412EDR8G does not support synchronization. It is part of the "Bias" variant group (CS51412/CS51414), which replaces the SYNC pin found on CS51411/CS51413 with the BIAS pin. The datasheet explicitly states that CS51412 and CS51414 have "the option of powering the controller from an external 3.3 V to 6.0 V supply" and omits SYNC functionality entirely. Attempting to drive a clock signal into pin 5 (BIAS) will not synchronize the CS51412EDR8G and may damage the pin.
What is the maximum allowable voltage on the BOOST pin of the CS51412EDR8G?
The maximum allowable voltage on the BOOST pin of the CS51412EDR8G is 40 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Exceeding this voltage-even momentarily-may damage the internal NPN switch driver. During normal bootstrapped operation, BOOST voltage equals VIN + VOUT − VF (diode forward drop), so designers must ensure VIN + VOUT stays below 40 V + VF. The CS51412EDR8G datasheet also notes that BOOST can sink up to 100 mA, and its minimum operating voltage is −0.3 V, allowing safe flyback clamping.
How does the CS51412EDR8G implement soft-start without a dedicated pin?
The CS51412EDR8G implements soft-start intrinsically through its VC pin: the error amplifier's output source current (15–35 µA typical) charges an external capacitor connected between VC and GND. As the capacitor voltage ramps, it directly modulates the PWM comparator threshold, causing output voltage to rise gradually. With a 0.1 µF capacitor, soft-start duration exceeds 5 ms-sufficient to prevent inrush current stress on the inductor, catch diode, and output capacitors. This eliminates external soft-start circuitry while maintaining precise control over ramp rate.
Is the CS51412EDR8G pin-compatible with the LT1376?
Yes, the CS51412EDR8G is functionally pin-compatible with the LT1376, as confirmed in the onsemi datasheet: "The CS51412 and CS51414 are functionally pin-compatible with the LT1376." Both use SOIC-8 packages with identical pin assignments for VIN, VSW, GND, VFB, VC, BOOST, SHDNB, and BIAS/SYNC (where CS51412EDR8G maps BIAS to LT1376's SYNC location). However, the BIAS functionality differs from LT1376's SYNC behavior-designers must reconfigure feedback and enable logic accordingly for full drop-in replacement.
