Product details
Overview
CS8141YDPSR7 from onsemi is a 5.0 V, 500 mA automotive-grade linear regulator with integrated ENABLE, RESET, and watchdog (WDI) functions. It delivers tightly regulated power to microprocessors in harsh environments, featuring 1.25 V dropout at full load, 7.0 mA quiescent current, and 60 V peak transient voltage tolerance. Its D2PAK-7 package supports high-power dissipation in engine control units and body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the CS8141YDPSR7 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its single-capacitor-programmable watchdog window (64–96 Hz lower threshold), RESET delay (30–65 ms), thermal shutdown at 150°C, and compatibility with automotive battery supply transients up to 60 V.
Technical Context
The CS8141YDPSR7 implements a composite PNP-NPN output stage for low-dropout regulation while maintaining precision via an internal bandgap reference. Its watchdog logic monitors only the lower frequency threshold of the WDI input signal-unlike the CS8140, it ignores upper-frequency violations-making it suitable for systems where software timing jitter must not trigger spurious resets.
RESET activation occurs under three conditions: VOUT falling below 4.5% of nominal for >2.0 s, power-on reset (tPOR = 30–65 ms), or WDI signal dropping below the programmable lower threshold. The open-collector RESET output remains functional down to VOUT = 1.0 V, and ENABLE controls active/sleep mode transitions with 250 µA quiescent current in sleep.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | 5.0 V ±4.0% - maintains microprocessor core voltage stability across −40°C to +150°C junction temperature. |
| Max Output Current | 500 mA - sufficient to power 8-bit/16-bit MCUs and peripheral logic in automotive ECUs. |
| Dropout Voltage | 1.25 V @ 500 mA - enables operation with VIN as low as 6.25 V, critical during cold-crank battery dips. |
| Watchdog Threshold | 64–96 Hz (lower only) - defines minimum pulse interval for WDI signal; no upper limit enforcement per CS8141 specification. |
| RESET Delay (tPOR) | 30–65 ms - ensures reliable power-on sequencing before MCU firmware execution begins. |
| Quiescent Current | 7.0 mA @ 500 mA load; 250 µA in sleep mode - reduces standby power in always-on vehicle modules. |
| Transient Tolerance | 60 V peak (46 V load dump) - survives ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a without external clamping. |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK-7 (Case 936AB) surface-mount package with exposed tab electrically connected to GND for thermal and EMI performance. Tab soldering required for thermal management in automotive applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VIN | Main input supply connection; accepts 7.0–26 V DC with 60 V transient immunity. |
| 2 | ENABLE | CMOS-compatible enable input; VOUT active when HIGH ≥3.95 V, disabled when LOW ≤3.5 V. |
| 3 | RESET | Open-collector output; pulls low during undervoltage, power-up, or watchdog timeout; operates down to VOUT = 1.0 V. |
| 4 | GND | Power ground reference; internally tied to tab; requires low-impedance PCB plane for noise immunity. |
| 5 | Delay | Connects external CDELAY capacitor (0.1 µF typical) to set RESET delay and watchdog thresholds. |
| 6 | WDI | Watchdog input; CMOS-compatible; monitored only for frequency below lower threshold (no upper-limit checking). |
| 7 | VOUT | Regulated 5.0 V output; Kelvin sense path available on SO-24L/DIP-14 variants but not on D2PAK-7. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Single-Capacitor Programmability | CDELAY sets tPOR, tWDI(RESET), and fWDI(LOWER) simultaneously-reduces BOM count and layout complexity. |
| Automotive Transient Robustness | Withstands 60 V load-dump transients without external TVS, simplifying front-end protection design. |
| Low-Power Sleep Mode | 250 µA IQ in ENABLE = LOW + WDI timeout state-enables energy-efficient MCU-controlled shutdown sequences. |
| RESET Operation Below 1.0 V Input | RESET remains functional even as VOUT decays to 1.0 V, ensuring deterministic reset assertion during brownout. |
| Thermal & Overvoltage Protection | Auto-shutdown at TJ ≥150°C and VOUT ≥34 V prevents damage during fault conditions in unregulated battery rails. |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Body Control Module (BCM) |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear regulator with watchdog and RESET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| CS8141YDPS7 | Same silicon, TO-220-7 package instead of D2PAK-7; RJA = 50°C/W vs. 10–50°C/W (substrate-dependent) for D2PAK-7. | Requires through-hole mounting and heatsink; less suitable for high-density SMT automotive PCBs. | Select CS8141YDPS7 only if legacy through-hole assembly or mechanical mounting constraints prohibit D2PAK-7. |
| TLV70733PDQNR | 3.3 V fixed output, no watchdog or RESET; 200 mA max, 0.25 V dropout; lacks automotive transient rating and temperature range. | Not suitable for 5 V MCU rails or ISO 7637-2 compliance; limited to infotainment peripherals. | Use TLV70733PDQNR only in non-safety-critical, low-power 3.3 V subsystems with benign supply conditions. |
Compared with CS8141YDPS7, the CS8141YDPSR7 offers superior thermal performance in SMT layouts and eliminates through-hole assembly steps; compared with TLV70733PDQNR, it provides full automotive-grade 5 V regulation with integrated safety monitoring-neither is a drop-in replacement due to voltage, feature, and qualification mismatches.

FAQ
What is the watchdog behavior difference between CS8141YDPSR7 and CS8140?
The CS8141YDPSR7 monitors only the lower frequency threshold of the WDI signal (64–96 Hz), ignoring upper-frequency violations. In contrast, the CS8140 enforces both lower and upper thresholds (64–96 Hz and 218–326 Hz). This makes CS8141YDPSR7 more tolerant of software timing jitter while retaining fail-safe reset on missed watchdog pulses.
Does CS8141YDPSR7 support remote voltage sensing?
No, CS8141YDPSR7 in the D2PAK-7 package does not provide a dedicated Sense pin. Remote sensing is only available on SO-24L and DIP-14 variants (pins 5 and 4 respectively). For D2PAK-7, regulation accuracy relies on low-impedance PCB routing between VOUT and load.
What is the minimum CDELAY capacitor value recommended for CS8141YDPSR7?
The datasheet specifies CDELAY = 0.1 µF as the standard value for tPOR = 47.5 ms (typ) and fWDI(LOWER) = 77 Hz (typ). Using smaller values risks violating minimum RESET delay or watchdog timing margins; 0.1 µF ±10% X7R ceramic is the validated baseline for CS8141YDPSR7 designs.
Can CS8141YDPSR7 operate with input voltage below 7.0 V?
Per absolute maximum ratings, CS8141YDPSR7 supports VIN down to −0.5 V, but regulation is only guaranteed for 7.0–26 V. At VIN < 7.0 V, dropout increases nonlinearly; at VIN = 6.25 V (5.0 V + 1.25 V dropout), output may still regulate at light loads-but not across full temperature or current range per spec.
Is CS8141YDPSR7 qualified to AEC-Q100?
Yes, CS8141YDPSR7 is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified (−40°C to +125°C ambient, −40°C to +150°C junction), with test reports covering HTOL, TC, UHAST, and ESD per automotive requirements. This qualification is documented in onsemi's official CS8140/CS8141 automotive reliability report.
