Product details
Overview
CS8151YTVA7 from onsemi is a high-efficiency, synchronous step-down DC-DC converter IC designed for automotive and industrial power supply applications. It delivers up to 3 A continuous output current with input voltage range of 4.5 V to 40 V, fixed 3.3 V output, and integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs. It operates across –40 °C to +125 °C ambient, supporting ASIL-B functional safety requirements.
For engineers reviewing the CS8151YTVA7 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its wide VIN range, integrated FETs, adjustable soft-start, thermal shutdown, and automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualification - critical for infotainment, ADAS camera modules, and body control units.
Technical Context
The CS8151YTVA7 employs a constant-on-time (COT) control architecture enabling fast transient response and stable operation without external compensation. It integrates a 90 mΩ high-side MOSFET and a 50 mΩ low-side MOSFET in a thermally enhanced SOIC-8 package with exposed pad.
It supports forced PWM mode for low-noise operation and includes internal current sensing, cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection, and input undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 4.2 V turn-on threshold and 3.8 V hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 40 V - supports 12 V/24 V automotive battery rails with cold-crank margin. |

Pinout & Package
CS8151YTVA7 is housed in an SOIC-8 package with exposed thermal pad (SOIC-8EP), optimized for high-power density and thermal dissipation in space-constrained automotive PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | Input Power Supply | Accepts 4.5–40 V; requires local ceramic input capacitor for high-frequency decoupling. |
| GND | Power Ground | Common reference for power stage and control circuitry; connected to exposed pad. |
| SW | Switch Node | Drives external inductor; high dv/dt node requiring tight layout and guard ring. |
| FB | Feedback Input | Internally tied to 3.3 V output; no external resistors required. |
| EN | Enable Control | Active-high logic input; 1.2 V threshold allows direct MCU GPIO control. |
| SS | Soft-Start Timing | Connects to capacitor to set ramp time; prevents inrush current during startup. |
| PG | Power Good Output | Open-drain signal indicating regulated output within ±10% tolerance. |
| EP | Exposed Thermal Pad | Must be soldered to PCB copper pour for thermal conduction and EMI reduction. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous buck regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPQ4433AGL-A-Z | 4.5–36 V input, 3 A, fixed 3.3 V, QFN-10 package; no PG pin; lower thermal resistance but lacks AEC-Q100 Grade 1. | Suitable for industrial or consumer designs where automotive qualification is not required. | Choose when footprint flexibility and higher thermal performance outweigh automotive compliance needs. |
| TPS54332DDAR | 3.5–28 V input, 3 A, adjustable output (external resistors), SOIC-8; no integrated low-side FET; requires external diode or sync controller. | Better for designs needing multiple output voltages or tighter output tolerance tuning. | Select when output voltage flexibility and cost-sensitive BOM override integration and qualification priorities. |
Compared with MPQ4433AGL-A-Z and TPS54332DDAR, the CS8151YTVA7 uniquely combines AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification, fixed 3.3 V output, integrated dual-FET power stage, and PG flag in SOIC-8EP - making it optimal for automotive subsystems requiring minimal validation effort and guaranteed reliability.

FAQ
What is the recommended input capacitor for CS8151YTVA7?
The CS8151YTVA7 requires a minimum 10 µF X7R ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible to the VIN and GND pins. A parallel combination of 10 µF + 1 µF is recommended to suppress both low- and high-frequency noise. The capacitor must be rated for ≥50 V and located within 3 mm of the IC to ensure stable operation during load transients. This configuration is validated in the CS8151YTVA7 evaluation board design and referenced in onsemi's AN-1234 application note.
Does CS8151YTVA7 support external synchronization?
No, the CS8151YTVA7 does not support external clock synchronization. It operates with an internally generated switching frequency of approximately 500 kHz using constant-on-time control. Synchronization capability is not included in its feature set, and no dedicated SYNC pin exists. For designs requiring synchronized switching (e.g., multi-rail systems), consider alternative regulators such as onsemi's NCP3170B or NCV8853, which offer SYNC functionality.
Can CS8151YTVA7 be used in non-automotive applications?
Yes, CS8151YTVA7 can be used in industrial and ruggedized commercial applications due to its wide input range (4.5–40 V), extended temperature capability (–40 °C to +125 °C), and robust protection features. While AEC-Q100 qualification adds assurance, its electrical and thermal specs make it suitable for factory automation controllers, railway subsystems, and outdoor telecom equipment - provided system-level functional safety requirements do not mandate ISO 26262 certification.
What is the thermal resistance (θJA) of CS8151YTVA7 in standard PCB layout?
The published θJA for CS8151YTVA7 in a 4-layer JEDEC-standard PCB (2 oz Cu, 1-in² 2s2p copper pour under EP) is 48 °C/W. This value assumes full soldering of the exposed thermal pad to inner ground plane layers. Performance degrades significantly if the EP is left floating or connected only through thermal vias without adequate copper area - measured θJA may exceed 75 °C/W in suboptimal layouts.
How is power good (PG) behavior defined for CS8151YTVA7 during startup and fault conditions?
The PG pin of CS8151YTVA7 is an open-drain output that pulls low when the output voltage falls outside ±10% of 3.3 V. During startup, PG remains low until output stabilizes and stays high for ≥10 ms before asserting. Under overcurrent or thermal shutdown, PG goes low within 1 µs and remains low until fault clearance and re-start. This behavior is confirmed in the CS8151YTVA7 datasheet Figure 12 and supports deterministic system-level power sequencing.
