Product details
Overview
CS5174ED8G from onsemi is a 560 kHz, negative-feedback switching boost regulator with integrated 1.5 A NPN power switch, operating from 2.7 V to 30 V input and regulating negative output voltages referenced to −2.45 V at the NFB pin. It features current-mode control, thermal shutdown with 25°C hysteresis, frequency foldback during overcurrent, and supports flyback, SEPIC, and inverting topologies in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the CS5174ED8G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its −2.45 V NFB reference voltage, 560 kHz base switching frequency, SOIC-8 package with PGND/VSW separation for noise isolation, and compatibility with negative-output DC/DC designs requiring <100 µA shutdown current and 0.65 V minimum pulse width.
Technical Context
The CS5174ED8G implements current-mode control using an internal ramp derived from switch current, combined with oscillator-slope compensation to prevent subharmonic oscillation above 50% duty cycle. Its dual-error-amplifier architecture includes a negative-input transconductance amplifier (160 µS typ) referenced to −2.45 V and clamped VC output (0.5–1.7 V).
Frequency synchronization operates up to 1000 kHz via the SS pin, while shutdown is triggered at 0.85 V (typ) with 12–200 µs delay depending on VCC. The IC integrates overcurrent protection with 1.7 A (min) current limit at 80% duty cycle and thermal shutdown at 180°C (typ) with hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Switching Frequency | 560 kHz nominal; enables compact magnetics and reduces EMI filtering burden vs. 280 kHz alternatives |
| NFB Reference Voltage | −2.45 V (typ); sets regulated negative output voltage via external resistor divider |
| Integrated Switch Current | 1.5 A guaranteed; eliminates external MOSFET driver and gate drive components | Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 30 V; supports wide-range industrial inputs including 12 V and 24 V rails |
| Shutdown Current | 60 µA max at 12–30 V VCC; enables low-power standby in battery-backed systems |
| Thermal Shutdown Threshold | 180°C (typ); protects against sustained overload with 25°C hysteresis for stable recovery |
| Minimum Pulse Width | 250 ns (typ); allows precise duty-cycle control at high frequencies and light loads |
Pinout & Package
CS5174ED8G is housed in an SOIC-8 (Case 751) package with exposed thermal pad (D suffix), featuring separate analog ground (AGND) and power ground (PGND) pins to minimize noise coupling into feedback circuitry.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VC | Loop compensation & current limit control | Output of error amplifier; clamped 0.5–1.7 V; external RC network sets stability and adjusts current limit |
| 2 - NFB | Negative feedback input | Senses negative output voltage; referenced to −2.45 V; triggers frequency foldback above −0.65 V |
| 3 - Test | Internal test logic interface | Must be floating or grounded; voltage between 2–6 V disables oscillator but leaves switch active |
| 4 - SS | Synchronization & shutdown | TTL-compatible input; low = shutdown (60 µA mode); external clock up to 1000 kHz synchronizes switching |
| 5 - VCC | Power supply input | 2.7–30 V operation; requires local bypass capacitor to AGND; powers internal regulator and driver |
| 6 - AGND | Analog ground reference | Clean return for FB/NFB, VC, and error amplifier; must be isolated from high-current PGND paths |
| 7 - PGND | Power ground return | Emitter connection for internal NPN switch; carries full 1.5 A switch current; connects to PCB ground plane |
| 8 - VSW | Switch collector node | Connects to inductor/diode in boost; withstands 40 V transient; layout must minimize trace inductance |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar negative-output switching regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LT1373CS8#PBF | Pin-to-pin compatible; 500 kHz switching; −2.5 V NFB reference; higher 2.5 A switch current; no frequency foldback | Supports higher output current but lacks overload frequency reduction; requires external soft-start | Choose LT1373CS8#PBF for >1.5 A loads where foldback is not required and board space allows larger inductor |
| TPS61086PW | 500 kHz; positive-feedback only; requires external inverting stage for negative output; 2 A switch; integrated soft-start | Cannot regulate negative voltage directly; needs additional inverting buck-boost or charge-pump stage | Choose TPS61086PW only when redesigning for positive-feedback architecture and adding external inversion |
Compared with LT1373CS8#PBF and TPS61086PW, CS5174ED8G uniquely delivers direct negative-output regulation in SOIC-8 with built-in frequency foldback and thermal hysteresis-critical for unattended industrial systems where overload protection and thermal recovery behavior are design-critical.

FAQ
What is the function of the NFB pin on the CS5174ED8G?
The NFB pin on the CS5174ED8G serves as the negative feedback input, referenced internally to −2.45 V. It senses the scaled negative output voltage via an external resistor divider and drives the error amplifier to maintain regulation. When the NFB voltage exceeds −0.65 V, the IC reduces switching frequency to 20% of nominal to limit stress during overload or short-circuit conditions. This behavior is intrinsic to CS5174ED8G and differs from the FB pin used in positive-output variants like CS5173ED8G.
Does the CS5174ED8G support synchronization to an external clock?
Yes, the CS5174ED8G supports external synchronization via its SS (Sync/Shut Down) pin, accepting TTL-compatible signals up to 1000 kHz. When an external clock is applied, the internal oscillator resets on each rising edge, aligning switching edges across multiple CS5174ED8G units. This capability is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Sync Range" and enables EMI reduction in multi-rail systems without modifying the CS5174ED8G's internal timing architecture.
What is the maximum allowable voltage on the VSW pin of the CS5174ED8G?
The VSW pin of the CS5174ED8G has an absolute maximum rating of 40 V, as specified in the Maximum Ratings table. This rating applies to transient spikes during switch turn-off, particularly in flyback or SEPIC topologies where leakage inductance can generate voltage overshoot. Designers must ensure that the sum of output voltage, diode forward drop, and expected ringing stays below 40 V-exceeding this risks permanent damage to the internal NPN switch, regardless of duration or duty cycle.
How does thermal shutdown operate in the CS5174ED8G?
The CS5174ED8G activates thermal shutdown at 180°C (typical junction temperature), halting switching and reducing supply current to ~60 µA. Recovery occurs only after junction temperature falls by 25°C (hysteresis), ensuring stable restart without oscillation. This behavior is verified in the Thermal Shutdown section of the Electrical Characteristics table and Figure 19 (Shutdown Threshold vs. Temperature), making CS5174ED8G suitable for sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments where sustained thermal stress is likely.
Can the CS5174ED8G be used in a boost configuration to generate a negative output voltage?
No-the CS5174ED8G cannot generate negative output in standard boost topology, which inherently produces positive output. Instead, it is used in inverting configurations (e.g., inverting buck-boost or Ćuk) where the output polarity is opposite the input. The NFB pin and internal negative error amplifier are explicitly designed for sensing and regulating negative outputs in those topologies, as detailed in the Applications Information section and Figure 29 (Error Amplifier Equivalent Circuit). Using CS5174ED8G in basic boost would result in incorrect regulation or failure to start.
