Product details
Overview
CS5171EDR8 from ON Semiconductor is a monolithic step-up DC-DC switching regulator with integrated 1.5 A N-channel MOSFET, operating from 2.7 V to 30 V input, delivering up to 1.5 A output current, and supporting adjustable output voltage up to 40 V - used in battery-powered portable instrumentation requiring compact high-voltage bias generation.
For engineers reviewing the CS5171EDR8 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include input voltage range compatibility, peak switch current rating, feedback reference accuracy, thermal performance in SOIC-8 packages, and suitability for non-isolated boost topologies in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The CS5171EDR8 implements a current-mode PWM controller with internal 1.5 A N-channel power switch, fixed 100 kHz switching frequency, and external resistor-programmable output voltage via resistive feedback divider. It features cycle-by-cycle current limiting, thermal shutdown, and undervoltage lockout.
Its error amplifier compares a scaled version of the output voltage against a precise 1.25 V internal reference; the resulting error signal modulates PWM duty cycle to maintain regulation. The device operates without external compensation components due to internal loop stabilization optimized for standard boost configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 30 V - supports single-cell Li-ion through multi-cell alkaline or 24 V industrial rails. |
| Output Voltage Range | Adjustable up to 40 V - enables high-voltage bias for op-amps, sensors, or LCD backlights. |
| Switch Current Limit | 1.5 A typical - defines maximum deliverable load current before foldback or shutdown. |
| Switching Frequency | 100 kHz fixed - balances efficiency, EMI, and external component size (inductor/capacitor). |
| Feedback Reference Voltage | 1.25 V ±1.5% - sets output accuracy and stability margin for feedback network design. |
| Thermal Shutdown Threshold | 150 °C junction - protects die during overload or poor PCB heatsinking conditions. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOIC-8 (Surface-Mount, 150 mil width, 0.050" pitch).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Power Input | Connects to unregulated DC source; bypass capacitor required near pin for transient suppression. |
| GND | Power Ground | Common return path for input capacitor, output capacitor, and feedback divider. |
| SW | Switch Node | Drives external inductor; high di/dt node requiring short, low-inductance routing. |
| FB | Feedback Input | Senses output voltage via resistive divider; high-impedance input referenced to GND. |
| EN | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; pulls low to disable regulator and reduce quiescent current to <10 µA. |
| COMP | Error Amplifier Output | Internal compensation node - no external connection required per datasheet design. |
| NC | No Connect | Pin 7 is internally unused; must remain floating or grounded per layout guidelines. |
| NC | No Connect | Pin 8 is internally unused; must remain floating or grounded per layout guidelines. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 1.5 A N-Channel MOSFET | Eliminates need for external high-side switch and gate driver, reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| Wide 2.7–30 V Input Range | Supports direct operation from single Li-ion (2.7 V cutoff) to 24 V industrial supplies without pre-regulation. |
| Precision 1.25 V Feedback Reference | Enables ±2% output voltage accuracy over line/load/temperature with standard 1% resistors. |
| Fixed 100 kHz Switching Frequency | Optimizes trade-off between inductor size (≈10–47 µH), ceramic output capacitance (10–47 µF), and conducted EMI filtering. |
| Thermal Shutdown with Hysteresis | Prevents latch-up during sustained overload; automatic recovery occurs after junction cools by ~15 °C. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar boost regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LM27313XMF/NOPB | 500 mA switch current, 1.6 MHz switching frequency, smaller 6-pin SOT-23 package. | Lower output current capability; suited for <300 mA loads where board space is critical. | Select when footprint and EMI filtering requirements favor higher frequency operation and reduced inductor size. |

FAQ
What is the maximum output voltage achievable with the CS5171EDR8?
The CS5171EDR8 supports an adjustable output voltage up to 40 V using an external resistive feedback divider. This limit is defined by the absolute maximum rating of the FB pin (40 V) and internal clamp circuitry. Operation beyond 40 V risks permanent damage to the feedback comparator and reference circuitry. For reliable long-term use, design targets should stay ≤38 V with appropriate derating.
Does the CS5171EDR8 require external compensation components?
No, the CS5171EDR8 does not require external compensation components. Its internal error amplifier and PWM modulator are factory-compensated for stable operation with standard boost configurations using typical inductor and output capacitor values. The COMP pin is for internal use only and must not be connected externally unless modifying loop dynamics per ON Semiconductor's application note AND9709/D.
Can the CS5171EDR8 operate from a single-cell Li-ion battery?
Yes, the CS5171EDR8 can operate from a single-cell Li-ion battery. Its 2.7 V minimum input voltage aligns with the typical discharge cutoff voltage of Li-ion cells. At low input voltages (e.g., 2.7–3.3 V), output current capability decreases due to reduced duty cycle headroom and increased conduction losses - verify load requirements using the efficiency curves in the CS5171EDR8 datasheet Figure 8.
How does the EN pin function on the CS5171EDR8?
The EN pin on the CS5171EDR8 is an active-high enable input. Driving EN ≥1.5 V (typically 3.3 V or 5 V logic) enables regulation; pulling EN <0.4 V disables the IC, reducing quiescent current to less than 10 µA. No pull-up resistor is required - the internal pull-down ensures default disable state at power-up if left unconnected.
What thermal considerations apply to the CS5171EDR8 in SOIC-8 package?
The CS5171EDR8 in SOIC-8 has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) of 110 °C/W with standard 2-layer PCB layout (1 in² copper pour). To maintain TJ ≤125 °C at full 1.5 A load, ambient temperature must remain ≤75 °C, or additional copper area/thermal vias must be added. Thermal shutdown activates at ~150 °C junction temperature, providing fault protection but not steady-state design margin.
