Product details
Overview
CS8122YTVA5G from onsemi is a precision 5.0 V ±2.0% low-dropout linear regulator delivering up to 750 mA output current with 0.6 V dropout at 500 mA, integrated delayed RESET function programmed via external capacitor, and robust fault protection including −50 V reverse transient, 60 V load dump, short-circuit (1.2 A typ), and thermal shutdown - used in automotive body control modules for stable microcontroller power sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the CS8122YTVA5G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page delivers verified technical context, exact pin functions, real-world use cases, and validated alternative options for automotive-grade power management design.
Technical Context
The CS8122YTVA5G integrates a bandgap reference, error amplifier, anti-saturation current-limit circuit, and dual hysteresis comparators for RESET and delay functions - enabling reliable power-on reset generation down to 1.0 V output voltage. Its latching discharge circuit fully discharges the external delay capacitor upon any out-of-regulation event, ensuring deterministic RESET pulse width.
It features internally limited power dissipation, operates across −40°C to +125°C ambient, supports input voltage range of −0.5 V to 26 V, and maintains regulation under 120 Hz ripple with 75 dB typical rejection - all while sustaining CMOS/TTL-compatible open-collector RESET output with 150–250 mV hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 5.0 V ±2.0% - ensures microcontroller supply meets tight VDD tolerance requirements without external trimming. |
| Dropout Voltage | 0.6 V @ 500 mA - enables stable 5 V output from as low as 5.6 V input, critical for cold-crank automotive operation. |
| Output Current | 750 mA continuous - sufficient to power MCU, CAN transceiver, and sensor interface ICs in single-rail systems. |
| RESET Threshold | VRT(ON) = 4.65–4.90 V, VRT(OFF) = 4.50–4.70 V - provides clean, noise-immune reset assertion during brownout recovery. |
| Delay Time | 16–48 ms with 0.1 µF capacitor - configurable reset hold-off prevents spurious resets during transient dips. |
| Fault Protection | −50 V reverse transient, 60 V load dump, short-circuit (1.2 A typ), thermal shutdown - meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1/2/3a/3b and ISO 16750-2 requirements. |
| Ripple Rejection | 75 dB @ 120 Hz - suppresses alternator ripple to prevent false resets or logic errors in downstream digital circuits. |
Pinout & Package
CS8122YTVA5G is housed in a Pb-free TO-220-5L vertical-mount package (Case 314K) with copper tab for heatsink attachment; RJA = 50°C/W, RJC = 2.1°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VIN | Unregulated input supply | Accepts −0.5 V to 26 V; withstands −50 V reverse transients and 60 V load dump pulses. |
| 2 - VOUT | Regulated 5.0 V output | Delivers up to 750 mA; requires ≥10 µF output capacitor with ESR ≥0.1 Ω for stability. |
| 3 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for internal bias, RESET discharge, and delay current sink. |
| 4 - Delay | Timing capacitor connection | Sources 5–15 µA charge current; sinks current to discharge CDELAY when VOUT falls below VRT(OFF). |
| 5 - RESET | Open-collector reset output | Active-low CMOS/TTL-compatible signal; pulls low when VOUT < 4.5 V and stays low for programmed delay. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Externally programmable RESET delay | Enables precise reset timing control (16–48 ms) using one capacitor - eliminates need for external timer ICs. |
| Dual hysteresis comparators | 200–800 mV hysteresis on both RESET and delay thresholds - prevents chatter during slow-rising/falling VOUT transitions. |
| Latching delay capacitor discharge | Ensures full discharge of CDELAY after any brief fault - guarantees minimum RESET pulse width regardless of fault duration. |
| Automotive-grade transient protection | Withstands −50 V reverse battery, 60 V load dump, and +40 V overvoltage - reduces need for external TVS diodes in cost-sensitive designs. |
| Pb-free TO-220 vertical package | Case 314K footprint enables direct PCB mounting with heatsink access through copper tab - simplifies thermal management in space-constrained ECUs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 5 V automotive LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV73350PDBVR | 300 mA output, 170 mV dropout, no RESET, SOT-23-5 package | Lacks RESET, delay, and automotive transient protection; rated only to 125°C junction | Use only in non-automotive, low-current, non-reset-critical applications where board space is constrained. |
| TPS7B6950QDCYRQ1 | 150 mA output, 300 mV dropout, integrated RESET with fixed 200 ms delay, wettable flank QFN | Lower current, fixed delay, no external RC programming; qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40°C to +125°C) | Select when RESET timing must be factory-fixed and footprint size is prioritized over output current capability. |
Compared with TLV73350PDBVR and TPS7B6950QDCYRQ1, the CS8122YTVA5G uniquely combines 750 mA drive, programmable RESET delay, and full ISO 7637-2 transient immunity - making it the only option among the three suitable for high-current automotive control modules requiring field-configurable reset timing.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage rating for CS8122YTVA5G?
The CS8122YTVA5G supports an absolute maximum input voltage of 26 V under normal operation. It also withstands transient overvoltages up to +60 V (load dump) and reverse transients down to −50 V - meeting ISO 7637-2 Pulse 1, 2a, 3a, and 3b test requirements. These ratings are guaranteed across the full −40°C to +125°C operating ambient range, and do not require external clamping components.
How does the RESET delay function work in CS8122YTVA5G?
The CS8122YTVA5G uses an external capacitor connected to the Delay pin (Pin 4) to set RESET assertion time. A precision 5–15 µA charge current ramps the capacitor voltage; RESET remains low until this voltage exceeds 3.50 V (typ). If VOUT drops below 4.50 V, the internal latching discharge circuit fully drains the capacitor - guaranteeing a fresh delay cycle starts upon recovery. Typical delay with 0.1 µF is 32 ms.
Can CS8122YTVA5G be used without an output capacitor?
No - CS8122YTVA5G requires a minimum 10 µF output capacitor with ≥0.1 Ω ESR for loop stability, as specified in the datasheet Figure 13 and Application Notes section. Ceramic capacitors with near-zero ESR cause oscillation; tantalum or aluminum electrolytic types are recommended. Omitting COUT or using undersized/low-ESR types risks sustained output ringing and potential system malfunction.
What thermal management is required for CS8122YTVA5G at 750 mA output?
At 750 mA and 14 V input, CS8122YTVA5G dissipates ~6.75 W. With RJA = 50°C/W, junction temperature rise would exceed safe limits without heatsinking. The TO-220-5L copper tab must be mounted to a heatsink; using RJC = 2.1°C/W and a 10°C/W heatsink yields ~45°C rise - keeping TJ within 150°C max. Derating curves in Figure 8 confirm 750 mA is sustainable only with adequate heatsink area and airflow.
Is CS8122YTVA5G pin-compatible with CS8126?
Yes - CS8122YTVA5G is a direct replacement for CS8126 in the same TO-220-5L package with identical pinout (VIN, VOUT, GND, Delay, RESET) and mechanical footprint. Key improvements include tighter output voltage tolerance (±2.0% vs. ±4.0%) and enhanced transient immunity, but no PCB layout changes are needed when upgrading from CS8126 to CS8122YTVA5G.
